rPHE EPITAPH of MARGERY SCOTT, in the Parisi
Churchyard of Dunkeld, in Scotland : /
Stop, -reader, here. until my life you' read,
The living may gain knowledge fro the dead:
Four times five years I lived a vir n's life,
Ten times five years I was a mat: ted wife,
Ten times five years a.widow, shave and chaste ;
Now, weary'd of this mortal life, I rest.
I, from my cradle to my grave, have seen
Eight mighty Kings of Scotland and a Queen ;
Four times five years the Commonwealth I saw,
Ten times the subjects rise against the law;
• Twice did I see old Prelacy pulled down,
Aud twice the cloak did sink beneath the gown;
Au end of Stuart's race I saw, nay, more, •
I saw my country sold for English ore ;
Such desolation in my time has been,
That I've an end of all perfection seen.

FOR BEAUTIFYING & PRESERVING THE HAIR.
THE genuine BOTANIC OIL has been uniformly proved
in every experiment to restore decaying and decayed
Hair, and in no one instance has it been known to fail. The
Proprietor is aware that an active perseverance in giving a
regular supply of the Genuine Botanic Oil to his Agents
throughout the Kingdom is essentially necessary, in order
that it may maintain the high reputation it has acquired.
The Proprietor begs also to observe, that the spurious
imitations are a compound of noxious ingrgeents, productive
of dandruff, a general dryness of thetkalp, depriving the
bulbs or roots of the hair of their proper nourishment, by
which the absorbents lose their action, a feverish heat of the
skin is produced, hence arise baldness and a general decline
of the hair. The Genuine Botanic Oil is sold in pot boxes,
at 25., 3s. 6d., and 55., and in bottles, perfumed with roses
for the toilet, 10s. each.
Be particular to ask for Middlewood's Botanic Oil.
To Dealers in Perfumery, &c. &c., J. M. is now prepared
to supply the Genuine Botanic Oil, Wholesale, to any extent,
on liberal terms. It hai attained a high pre-eminence over
every advertised Hair Oil, and Vendors will find it a profit-
able article—they may also warrant it to their customers. It
possesses every property it is so highly recommended for, and
which has distinguished it from other Hair Oils.
