NVe see by an advertisement in anotli ,
er column that Messrs. Comstock di c 0.,.
the American Agents for Oldridge's Balm
of Columbia, have deputies to sell that ar
,
rticle in Boston and elsewhere. Il e know
a lady of this city whose hair was so near
ly gone as to expose entirely her phrenol
ogical developments, which, considering
that they betokened a most amiable dispo
sition, was not in reality very unfortunate
Nevertheless she mourned the loss of
locks that she had worn, and after a
year's fruitless resort to miscalled resto
ratives, purchased; some months ago, a
bottle or two of Oldrolge's Balm, and she
has now ringlets in rich profusion, glossy,
nd of raven blackness. We are not pul
ling, none of the comodity has been sent
to us, and indeed, we do not want any,
for though we were obliged to wear a wig
a year ago, we have now, though its v;r
toe, hair enough, and of a passable quail
ty.ot our own,
To the Bald Headed.,—Bhis is to certi

years, and by the use of the genuine Balm
of Colymbia, my head is now covored
