BURNETT’S COCOAINE.
Boston* July 19,1867.
Messrs. J. Burnett So Go.—l cannot refuße to
state the salutary effect in my own aggravated oase of
your excellent Hair Oil—(Cocoaine.) -
For many months my hair had been falling off* until
I was fearful of losing it entirely. The skin upon my
head became gradually more and more inflamed, so that
I could not touch It.wlthout pain. This irritated con
dition I attributed to,the use of various advertised hair
washes, which I have close been told contain oamphene
spirit. '
By the advice of my physician* to whom you had
shown your process of purifying the Oil, I commenced
Its use the last week in June. The first application al
layed the Iteblng and irritation; in three or four days
the redness and tenderness disappeared—the hair ceased
to fall* and I have now a thick growth of new hair.
, Yours, very truly,
SUSAN B. POPE.

INSURANCE, ADJUSTING,

Philadblphia.
The undersigned having been practically engaged for
a number of years in different capacities of the Insu
rance business—for several years in adjusting losses
exclusively for the Insurance Companies—now offers his
services to. those sustaining Loss or Damage by Fire to
property Insured, in making out their proofs of snob
loss or damage In full compliance with the intricate and
cunning conditions of Policies of Insurance, in such a
manner as to obviate plea or excuse for reduction or
litigation by companies so inclined, or others.
Be is assisted by the best legal counsel in Philadel
phia, and will give particular attention to the Collec
tion of Claims against Insurance Companies.
It Is known by many who have sustained loss by Fire
to property insured, and it has also been the experience
of the undersigned, that policies are frequently declared
partially or entirely void at a certain time after a fire
occurs, in consequence of carelessness or mismanage
ment in effecting the insurance, or for some other cause,
which, although an important fact, Is scarcely ever dis
covered or thought of, until it is too late. In order to
avoid such disastrous occurrences, the undersigned
will also effect Insurance in reliable Companies only,
and examine policies effected by others (In most cases)
free of extra oharge.
Parties sustaining loss or damage by fire, as above,
will find it to their interest to consult the undersigned
: as soon after th 9 fixe MMMiWc.
