• HAIR RESTORERS, &c. 
A GREAT AND IMPORTANT END ACCOMPLISIIED.- 
Van Deusen’slmprijved Wahpene is now confidently and 
generally offered by the inventor, as one of the best modern 
specifics for the Improvement, Health, and Beauty of the 
Human Hair. Its faithful application will, on the head of 
Baldness, reproduce a fine and entirely new growth, and con¬ 
vert that which is gray to its natural and primitive color. 
This desirable change is effected by the action of the improved 
Wahpene on the roots or fibres, thereby aiding nature in 
restoring those healthy functions indispensable to the life 
and beauty of the Hair. This invaluable article consists alto¬ 
gether of vegetable infusions, and is entirely free from all 
mineral acids and alcoholic agency. As an article for the 
Toilet, also, this preparation is without a rival, cleansing the 
head from Dandruff and Scurf, and affording an efficacious 
remedy for nervous and constitutional headaches. Sold by. 
the inventor at the GENERAL DEPOT, 123 CHAMBERS ST., 
and by the principal Druggists of New-York and Brooklyn 
Cities, and those of the United States generally, 1—17 
P ROFESSOR ALEX. C. BARRY’S TRICOPHEROUS, OR 
Medicated Compound for beautifying, curling, preserv¬ 
ing, restoring, and strengthening the hair, relieving diseases 
of the skin, curing rheumatic pain, and healing external 
wounds.—Bounded by no geographical lines, the reputation 
of Barry’s Tricoplierous pervades the Union. The sales of the 
article of late years have increased in a ratio that almost 
exceeds belief. Professor Barry, after a careful examination 
of his sales-book, finds that the number of bottles delivered 
to order, in quantities of from half a gross upward, during 
the year 1852, was within a trifle of 950,000. It is unnecessary 
to present at length the evidences of the wonderful properties 
of the Tricoplierous when the public have furnished such an 
endorsement as this. The cheapness of the article, and the 
explanations given of its chemical action upon the hair, the 
scalp, and in all cases of superficial irritation, first recom¬ 
mended it to the attention of the people. This was all that 
the inventor desired. Every bottle advertised itself. The 
effects of the fluid exceeded expectation. It acted like a 
charm. The ladies would not be without it. Country dealers 
in every section of the United States found they must have 
it; and thus was built up a wholesale trade of an extent 
hitherto unheard of as regards articles of this kind. The 
highest point has not yet bpen reached, and it is believed that 
the sales this year will be a million and a half of bottles. 
Depot and Manufactory, No. 137 Broadway, New-York. Re¬ 
tail price, 25 cents a large bottle. Liberal discount to pur¬

mTE PLUS ULTRA.-THE STEADY PERSEVERANCE 
its and practice of a great many years have enabled J. 
LASCALA to discover what all the endeavors of men have hi¬ 
therto found to be useless. J. Lascala’s Vegetable Hair Re¬ 
generator is the very specific to cure the diseases of the inte¬ 
gument of the head, which cause the deterioration or the 
loss of the ornament of the head, so that it prevents baldness, 
causes the hair to grow, makes the dandruff disappear, and 
renders to the hair a beautiful gloss. This article will be 
found at Lascala’s Perfumery Store, 584 Broadway, Metropoli¬ 
tan Hotel, wh^e there is the best assortment of French Per¬ 
fumery, Shirts”ravats, handkerchiefs. Canes, and Umbrellas, 
and every kind of fashionable toilet articles. 1-13 
B ARKER’S CHEVEUXTONIQUE.—THIS IS AN ENTIRE- 
ly new article, concocted for the purpose of Preserving, 
Restoring, and Beautifying the Hair, and, unlike most prepa¬ 
rations designed for the same objects, it is free from all grease, 
so that its application cannot soil the most delicate fabric. 
As an eradicator of Dandruff, it is unequalled, while its infal- 
libity in cases of headache, easing the most violent in a few 
moments, cannot fail to commend it to universal appreciation. 
The Cheveuxtonique is for sale by all the respectable drug¬ 
gists and fancy stores throughout the city. The depot for its 
sale, wholesale and retail, is at BARKER’S Ladies’ Hair-dress¬ 
ing Establishment, No. 439 Broadway. 2-48

defy the closest inspection to detect them from a natural head 
of hair. Best assortment of Wigs, Half-Wigs, Toupees, Braids 
of long hair, Ringlets, Frizettes, Ac., which, for price and qua¬ 
lity, are unequalled. The trade supplied wholesale. Call and
