FEMALE LOVELINESS--SUPERFLUOUS HAIR.--

Nature doubtless originally intended the appearance of ladies to be in accordance with their sex; but how frequently and with what unpleasant sensations do we see ladies, otherwise beautiful, completely unsexed by that unseemly disfigurement, a superfluous growth of hair upon the face or neck?

ATKINSON'S DEPILATORY has proved itself in thousands of instances that have come under the proprietor's observation to be a positive and easy remedy for this unfortunate affliction.

No cosmetic has ever been hailed with the universal satisfaction that has accompanied the introduction of this invaluable preparation, one single application of which will in a few moments entirely remove the hair, leaving the skin softer, finer, whiter, and much improved in its appearance.

It is so mild and harmless in its nature, that it can be used upon an infant, without the least deleterious effect.

In consequence of the increased demand for the articles, the proprietor has appointed Messrs. GUIONS, 189 Broadway, New York, General Agents for the United States of America, for the Depilatory and Mahomed's Turkish Dye.

Country dealers will be supplied by them on the most reasonable terms. Price two dollars per bottle.
