HAIR RESTORED, PRESERVED & BEAUTIFIED
By the use of
ROWLAND'S MACASSAR OIL.
It prevents Hair from falling off or turning grey, strengthens weak Hair cleanses it from Scurf and Dandriff, and makes it beautifully soft, pliable, and glossy. For Children it is especially recommended as forming the basis of a beautiful head of hair,
INTERESTING FACT.
The following singular and authentic case of restoration of the Human Hair is worthy of observation, more particularly as it relates to an article of high and universal repute during the last half century. Mr. A. Hermann, of Queen street, Soho, had been quite bald for some time past, and had tried various preparations for the recovery of his hair, but without any beneficial result. He was then induced to try the effects of Rowland's Macassar Oil and after daily applying it for about two months, he, much to his gratification, had his hair quite restored, and now possesses a beautiful head of hair. This fact speaks too strongly for itself to require comment.--Bell's Weekly Messenger
Price, 3s 6d., 7s; 10s. 6d , equal to four small, and 21s. per bottle.
A Beautful Complexion, and Soft and Fair Hands and Arms,
Are realized by the use of
ROWLANDS' KALYDOR.
It exerts the most soothing, cooling, and purifying action on the skin, eradicates Freckles, Tan, Pimples, Spots, Discoloration, and other Cutaneous Visitations, and renders the skin soft, clear, and blooming.
Price 1s. 6d. and 8s. 6d. per bottle.
White and sound Teeth are indispensable to personal attraction, and to health and longevity by the proper mastication of food.
ROWLANDS' ODONTO, or PEARL DENTIFRICE,
Compounded of Oriental Ingredients, is of inestimable value in Preserving and Beautifying the Teeth, Strengthening the Gums, and in giving a Delicate Fragrance to the Breath. It eradicates Tartar from the Teeth, removes spots of incipient decay, and polishes and preserves the Enamel, to which it Imparts a Pearl-like Whiteness.
Price 2s. 9d. per Box.
Sold by respectable Chemists and Perfumers in all parts of the world.
