    Paisley, Augiist 25, 1837. ■ GiixTLEMEN,““Having been for the last six years afflicted witli Inflammation and i Pimples in my Face, I have used two half-pint bottles of your KALYDOR, and am truly happy to say that it has completely cured my face. You have full permission to publish this case, that the public may benefit by your KALYDOR . i Your obedient servant, | WILLIAM NICOL. York-road, Lmibeih, Feb. 12, 1839. Gentlemen,—! should be wanting in justice to the superior merits of your KALYDOR, were I not to acquaint you with the fact that I have witnessed its sur- i prising efficacy in many instances, but more especially in my own family. My j youngest daughter experienced most essential benefit from it in a violent cutaneous ; eruption in the face; and one of my sons, whose face was covered with pimples, had i them totally removed by the mild and genial operation of your KALYDOR. I am, Gentlemen, Your obedient servant, D. RIVERS. cAUTroir. Each genuine bottle is enclosed with a Treatise on the Skin, in a beautifully Engraved Wrapper, from a Steel Plate, by Messrs. Perkins, Bacon, and Co., on which are the words— ZIOWX.ANBS’ i KAI.VBOB, I ; with their signature at foot in red, thus— i A. ROWLAND&SON, \ which signature is also, by authority of the Hon, Commissioners of Stamps, engraved on the Government Stamp. i IMPORTAllT IKTFOIKIIATIOA. t • ' The high reputation of this invaluable discovery, induces UNPRINCIPLED I INDIVIDUALS, for the sake of gaining a trifle more profit, to vend the most spurious compounds under the title of KALYDOR (containing mineral I astringents utterly ruinous to the Complexion, and which, by their repellent I action, endanger health); they copy the labels, bills, &c., of the genuine I preparation, and substitute either a FICTITIOUS name or the ^vord GENUINE” in the place of ROW^LAND’S, and in some instances assume | ! their trash to be under the sanction of Royalty. It is therefore imperative on i i purchasers to see that the words ROWLAND’S KALYDOR” are on the ] I 'wi'apper. All others are FRAUDULENT IMITATIONS !!! 'File genuine preparation is sold by the Proprietors, and by Chemists ! and Perfumers.
