RMURRA in returning his thanks to the Inhabitants
• of Liverpool' and its Vicinity for the patronage he has
received since his commencement in the above Establish-
ment, begs leave to state that, owing to a great increase in
the Wholesale Department, he is declining the Retail Trade.
R. M. wishes to intimate to Families and Housekeepers,
that his Stock consists of the best Articles in the Trade, such
as have given general satisfaction to the public heretofore.
The Linen Department will be found of the very best ma-
terial ; also in Blankets, Counterpanes, Marseilles, Toilet,
and Imperial Quilts, he has an endless variety at such reduced
prices that never was offered before to the public. An early
call is solicited, as the time for disposing of the Stock is
limited.

FOR THE GROWTH, PRESERVATION, AND EM-
BELLISHMENT OF THE HAIR.
ADDDLEWOOD'S BOTANIC or FAMILY HAIR
IVA- OIL has stood the test of thirty years, and is patro-
nised by the most illustrious personages.. It is held in high
estimation at the Toilet as a Family Hair Oil ; it is of in-
estimable worth, and will preserve the Hair from infancy to
old age. J. M. need not caution the Public. The Hair
Oils by which the country is inundated are already cried
down by persons who have, in all probability, supplied them ;
the trash, as so represented, is injurious in the extreme ; the
dryness it produces, as well as turning the Hair grey, not
unfrequently produce headache. The Botanic or Family Oil
is distinguished from every other by its emolient and nutri-
tious properties ; it preserves the scalp agreeably cool, and
it is an undoubted fact that, with the growth of Hair, the
health is improved. The mode now adopted for the sale of
the Botanic or Family Hair Oil will undoubtedly affect the
London trade, and probably reform it. J. M. will personally
appoint his Agents' over England ;he will advertise his Oil,
stating facts only, which his Agents will warrant; and he
assures his customers, no fraud will be attempted by false
representation. But how different is the London trade :
the proprietors depend on the advertisement alone—the
vendors are not accountable—thus is the country inundated
with trash which no person is answerable for.
The following statement cannot fail to give a confidence of
the superior efficacy of the Botanic Oil :—From 1820 to 1830
J. Middlewood's genuine botanic oil was interdicted by
government, on the ground that it possessed properties,
and performed such cures of baldness, as brought it within
the meaning of the patent medicine act, and not until its
great utility in preserving the hair was submitted to parliament,
could a legal sale be effected. The petition presented, met
with the kindest attention. and the chancellor of the exche-
quer exempted it from the medicine duty, to be sold under
the denomination of hair oil. The petition was presented
by the Right Hon. Wm. Huskisson, on the 10th April, 1830,
while Mr. Goulburn was chancellor of the exchequer.
The Botanic Oil is sold at 25., 3s. 6d., and 55., in boxes ;
also, for the Toilet, 10s. per bottle.
Mr. RENNIE, Lord-street, has received a fresh supply.
