MEssRs. SrERLING & BLooMEB:
GENrLENEN-I feel it my duty to make you
aware of the effects of yonr Ambrosia Oil. Dur
ing the riots in New York I was badly beaten
about the head and face, which caused me O long
spell of sickness, during which time lost all nv
hair and whiskers. / was compelled to wear q
wig for some two years and q half During
that time tried number of the advertised hair
preparations in the market. and received no bene-
fit whatever. / was advised by q brother Broad
way police officer to use Sterling's Ambrosis Oil
and Scalp Renovator. which used about eight
months; at the ex piration of that time l was OBJ
lged to discard my wig. At the present time I
may wish for all from the use of eight bottles of
Ambrosia Oil, The above facts well known
by all my brother Broadway police officers, and
as well known by many of my friends.
Very respectfully,
