MEEN FUN ; or, CELESTIAL SKIN
POWDER, for rendering the Skin white, smooth, and soft.
The great value of this justly celebrated Chinese Cosmetique is,
that the ingredients bang solely herbaceous, the most delicate com-
plexion can apply it without injury ; while rough, red, and moist
skins speedily experience beneficial results. Another most important
feature is that of repressing, without detriment to the sanatory con-
dition of the user, the truly unpleasant sensation accompanying too
copious perspiration.
Travellers, and residents in warm climates, subject to the ener-
vating influence of tropical heat, will, when the skin becomes moist
and heated, experience inconceivable comfort by resorting to this
Cosmetique, as it will both allay and avert discoloration and
coarseness.

October 9, 1844.

Str,—For the last three or four years I have been labouring under a
nervous deafness, so much so at times as to be almost incapable of
hearing. After trying several very eminent aurists, from whom I de-
rived scarcely any relief, I was induced at the solicitation of a friend
to try your excellent Eye Snuff. I accordingly procured one of your
4s. 4d. canisters, after taking which I found considerable benefit, so
much so that I sent for two more, which having used, I found my
hearing completely restored, and I have mot been deaf since. I should
mention that the time I commenced taking your Eyo Snuff was in
April last, and have continued taking it since.—l am, Sir, your obe-
dient servant, W. H. ADAMS.
To Mr. W. Gemstone.
Any quantity of Eye Snuff can be forwarded through the General
Post, by sending money orders. A 2s. 4d. caliSter, With directions,
trill cost 35., and so on in like proportion.
