EYEBROWS MUSTACHIOS, and WHISKERS produced in a

GRIM ST ON E'S AROMATIC
REGENERATOR. . _ _

If you are in want of that beautiful adornment of the human
figure, a natural supply of human hair, obtain through the post, or
of any wholesale or retail chemist or druggist, or perfumer. an 11
bottle of Grimstone's Aromatic Regenerator. This is an essential
spirit, drawn from aromatic herbs and flowers (grown at his Her-
bary, Highgate), which has been long known to the nobility and
gentry, by whore it is highly appreciated for its manifold virtues, too
numerous to be set forth in an advertisement, but may be read in his
pamphlet, in which the bottles are enclosed.
Each pamphlet has the signature of William Grimstone, Merchant,
Herbary, Highgate, and will be found at page 11, under the copy of
Mrs. Weekly's Letter to the Editor of the " Times" newspaper, 7th
of August, 1846. _ _ _

This pamphlet is forwarded through the pest, on receiving two
postage stamps.
The Aromatie Regenerator can be forwarded through the post on
receiving a post-office order for 4s. 6d., 7e. Bd., or 125., which in-
chides the postage with the case.

'rho I Is. size contains four of the 4s.
A few if its many "sit tues, as thousands can prole, are published
In the pamphlet enclosed with each bottle.

Reader, ref'iect for a few minutes, and if you are 40 years of age,
you will I—,member the thousands of blind you meet with in your
walks, :fliers with various coloured eye-shades ; indeed, such was
the diquand for eye-shades, that it was a business. What has re-
moved those sightless beings, and given place to a straightforward,
',tear-sighted people (the climate is the same) ? I'll tell you the cause
—the universal use of Grimstone's Eye Snuff and because it cured
Ophthalmia, Gutta Serena, Cataract, Nervous Headach, and Deaf-
ness, the Lords of the Treasury directed it to be denominated a medi-
cine, and to be stamped. Although this advanced its character, 67
cases of cure being proved by the informers, still it was an act of
oppression; as in 1825 the Solicitor of Stamps, Godfrey Sykes, Esq.,
altered the label, and sanctioned its sale under order of the Lords of
the Treasury ; the letter of protection, signed by lorries, Fsq., to
Mr. William Grimstene, bearing date 18tk February, 1525. This was
oa account of its curative qualities, being sold at that time in canis-
ters, within the reach of every poor family, But ander this order of
Government it is obliged to be stamped.
