CAUTION TO FAMILIES.
The high reputation of, and consequent great demand for the
undermentioned Preparations, have excited the cupidity of some
SHOPKEEPERS of apparent respectability, but destitute alike of
honour and of talent, who, for the sake of gaining a trifle more profit,
basely attempt to impose their pernicious compounds upon the
public as the real “MACASSAR OIL” for the Hair, and “KALYDOR” for
the Complexion; they copy the bills and labels of the original articles,
substituting either a fictitious name or the word “GENUINE” in the
place of “ROWLAND’S.”
To frustrate such imposition—it is necessary on purchasing either
article, to see that the word “ROWLAND’S” is on the wrapper, as
follows, without which None are Genuine.
ROWLAND’S KALYDOR,
for the Skin and Complexion.—Price 4s. 6d. and 8s. 6d. per bottle.

is written in red on the wrappers of the Macassar Oil and Kalydor,
and engraven on the Government Stamp affixed on the Kalydor
and the Odonto.
Be sure to ask for “Rowland’s” Articles.
