It is particularly, re- commended for sick or crowded rooms, being entirely free from all empyreuma of spirit, as well as the sickly unhealthy perfume of lavenuder mixed with ambergris, musk, &c., it being simply the best Lavender flowers distilled to a powerful essense. Sold by Ja.mes Atkinson, 44, Gerrard-street, Soho-square, and many perfumers, und each venaer is furni-shed with a sample bottle, to show pur- chaser.

In most cases when it is in a declinisg ordebilitated state, it maybe completely renovated by iLs use, provided the hair is properly cut by an e5;perienced hand once a fortnight while in that weak state. The difficulty is, to ob- tain the grease genuine, as it is a thing so easily imitated that many have complained of its want of efl$cacy fromn having used a spurious article. To prevent this, the public are requested to observe, that Ross and Soxs, No. 119, Bishopsgate.strect, who for-the last fifty vears have sold it pare and unadulterated, cannot wairant any that has not their name afEixe(d to the pot; but, with their signa. cure, they may be assured of ins gehlineness, as the animals are re- gularly fatted and killed by them. N. B. It may be obtained, either perfumed or otherwise, as most agreeable, and every accom- modation is offered to those ladies and gentlemen who may wish to have their hair properly arranged, they having opened several addi- tional rooms for that purpose.
