ALLAN POLLOCK bigs leave to inform the noblity, gentry, and pubic in general, that he has received Hit Majdfty's Royal Letters Potent for some important improvements iu warming rooms, and has now some Stores, constructed with those im- provrnients, ready for sale; two of which may be seen at No. 13, Newman-street, and one at No. 10, New Bond-street, every day from twelve o'clock till five. The following are a few of the advantages which his improved Stoves possess : They produce a complete circulation of air in eve rj part of the room, without those currents of cold air which always exist in rooms warmed in the usual manner : They produce, throughout the apartment, nearly an equal temperature, which is easily regulated 1 Part of the front of the Store being made of transparent materials, renders the fin visible, al- lows both light and heat to pass into the room, and preserves the cheerful appearance of an open fire: One form of the stoves is constructed, so as to be nsed either as a close or open fire-place at pleasure. The external surface of these Stoves being pre- vented from becoming over-heated, tbey are per- fectly secure from all danger of fire, and may be used with safety in places where combustible mate- rials are 1<' pt : They have, in every instance, prevented smoke ; and are also free from dust, to which most fire- places are subject : They save a large proportion of fuel : Thej can be made in a variety of elegant forms, and the cxpence of the ornaments may be suited to the wish of the purchaser. From their diffusing an equal warmth, and pro- moting a free circulation of pure air, they will be found both useful and agreeable in every situation. ROYAL BRITISH ARCANUM, Or Hair Wash. Patronized by several Illustrious Branches of the Royal Family- MACDONALD, Humbert, and Co. (late Mao donald and Saigon!) beg leave to acquaint the No- bility, Gentry, and Public, that in future the Royal British Arcanum will be sold in bottles, with tin ir nanus cast on (lie sides, at 3s. 6d. and 6s. — This Hair Wash, from its truly appreciated worth, has found its way to the Toilets of a large circle of the most elevated and fashionable Characters in the kingdom, and will be found on a single trial to ex- ceed in effect any preparation ever offered to a dis- cerning Public for the Hair, and must ultimately supersede all Oils, Spirits, &c. or at least limit their use to alternate application : it is a well known fact, that ardent spirits burn up the Hair, and oily and unctuous substances loosen the roots, which causes a weakness in the hair and makes it fall olV. The Arcanum will be found wonderfully efficacious to the heads and hair of young children, as well as adults, by removing every particle of dust, scuif, grease, dander, &e. rendering the hair beautifully glossy, and the head wonderfully refreshed, being a perfectly innocent distillation, free from all oily, unctuous, and spirituous matters, differing in every respect from all other preparations, and is exclu- sively the only truly denominated Hair Wash in England. Sold by the Proprietors, at their Gowland Lotion Warehouse, 53, Fong Acre, and by every respecta- ble Perfumer and Medicine Vendur in the United Kingdom.
