 A CAI^D, 
 
 We present thanks for the liberal patronage 
 hitherto bestowed upon our Preparations. 
 
 They have stood the test of time and competi¬ 
 tion, and have established a universal reputation 
 for purity and efficacy. 
 
 Encouraged in our endeavours, we shall main¬ 
 tain the 
 
 STANDARD QUALITY 
 
 of our manufactures, regardless of cost,—and 
 trust that their merit and attractiveness will con¬ 
 tinue to elicit the favour of the public. 
 
 It is hoped that the accompanying Flobal 
 Hand-Book (revised and improved) will prove an 
 acceptable visitor. The “ Language of Flowers” 
 is the most complete and reliable ever published, 
 and, together with the Proverbs, Aphorisms, 
 Poetical Gems, &c., will afford instruction and 
 pastime for dull hours. 
 
 Our object, as will be seen, is to bring to your 
 notice our several Standard Preparations for the 
 Toilet, &c., which are now favourably known 
 throughout the country. 
 
 * # * Dealers will please distribute carefully for 
 mutual benefit.

 ECLIPSES FOR THE YEAR 1870. 
 
 In 1870 there will be four Eclipses of the Sun. and two 
 of the Moon, — all invisible in our Atlantic States. 
 
 The small Solar Eclipses on January 81 and June 28, may 
 be seen in high Southern , and that on" July 28 in high Nor¬ 
 thern, latitudes; but the fourth, on December 22, will be 
 central, and total near Cadiz and Constantinople. In Algiers 
 and Sicily, in which the spectacle will be magnificent. 
 
 The Eclipses of the Moon on January 17 and July 12, will 
 be ' total." The beginning of the former may' be seen 
 in our Pacific States, and the end of the latter in Nova 
 Scotia and New Brunswick.

 BURNETT’S COCOAHNTE 
 
 Is superior to all animal oils in the following particulars:— 
 
 It is a cooling Vegetable Oil. ( Animal oils are heating.) 
 
 Its rapid absorption leaves little residue on the surface. 
 (Animal oils do not possess this peculiarity in any great 
 degree.) 
 
 It does not quickly become rancid. (Animal oils do.) 
 
 It imparts glossiness to the hair by its penetrating power, 
 rather than by mere outward lustre. ( The contrary is true 
 with regard to animal oils.) 
 
 The inventors of Cocoaine, knowing that animal' oils 
 — Bear’s Grease, Pomades, &c: — induce heat rather than 
 alleviate it, turned their attention and pharmaceutical 
 science towards Vegetable Oils as the basis of a medica¬ 
 ment to promote the growth and preserve the beauty of 
 the hair. The Oleum Cocos , or 
 
 COCOA-NUT OIL, 
 
 presented itself most strongly as possessing many proper¬ 
 ties peculiarly adapted for the purpose; but its odor and 
 density were objectionable, and seemed for a long time to 
 defy all efforts to render it available for popular use. By a 
 scientific selection of other ingredients, tho.^e which will 
 chemically combine with the oil have been discovered, 
 and they together have produced a topical compound 
 which is unqualifiedly pronounced to be the best that has 
 yet appeared. 
 
 In the form here presented, this oil is permanently de¬ 
 odorized, , and held in a combination which peculiarly 
 adapts it to the Toilet. 
 
 Beware the fury of a patient man. - Dryden.

 BURNETT’S COLOGNE "WATER, 
 
 UNRIVALLED IN RICHNESS AND DELICACY OF PERFUME. 
 
 Frequent appeals have been made to us to supply a 
 standard American Cologne. We have yielded to this'de- 
 mand, and add Burnett’s Cologne Water to our list. 
 We believe it will be found worthy the generous confi¬ 
 dence bestowed upon our other Toilet Preparations. 
 
 It is prepared from the purest and best materials, and 
 with the utmost care. It is filled in elegant bottles of 
 superior finish and beauty, — in themselves an ornament 
 to any lady’s toilet-stand. It is offered at a small advance 
 upon the prime cost, and at a price within the reach of 
 every one. Without effort on our part, it has, in a brief 
 time, attained a large and constantly increasing sale, con¬ 
 firming the opinion ot the best judges, that it is equal, if f 
 not superior , to the celebrated Farina. 
 
 One of the best Colognes ever made is Burnett’s, of 
 Boston. It is equal to the Farina, and is much cheaper. 
 Full confidence can be given it. We speak from actual 
 experience. —Baltimore American. 
 
 Burnett’s Cologne is equal to the best imported. It 
 is put up in ancat and elegant style, and wins for itself a 
 favorite place on the dressing-table. Its intrinsic merits 
 really justify the high reputation in which it is held.— 
 Providence Journal. 
 
 Burnett’s Cologne has attained a most enviable 
 reputation. The article is of high proof, and is a refresh¬ 
 ing perfume. — Boston Transcript.

 The greatest efficacy of the Cocoaine is best secured by 
 a perfect cleansing, before its application, of the hair and 
 scalp, under which circumstances it allays irritation, re¬ 
 moves all tendency to dandruff, and invigorates the action 
 of the capillaries in tho highest degree. Its effect upon 
 the glossiness and richness of the appearance of the hair 
 is such as cannot be surpassed.

 BTTBJNETT’S PLOEIMEL. 
 
 A PERFUME FOR THE HANDKERCHIEF. 
 
 This exquisite bouquet is so highly concentrated that ft 
 few drops will leave its peculiar and delightful fragrance 
 upon the handkerchief for many hours. 
 
 UUKNktt’s 1'LOKIMEL is so delicate and pure that it 
 will not discolor muslin, and yet so permanent in its ef¬ 
 fects that the flavor clings for weeks. It is really wonder¬ 
 ful that so delicate a perfume should be so permanent.— 
 Hartford Courant. 
 
 Its odor is that of an exquisite bouquet of choice and 
 delicate flowers, without too much of that peculiar sweet¬ 
 ness so common in French extracts, which satiates and 
 sickens the senses. — Boston Transcript. 
 
 Burnett’s Florimel. — Prepared with such exquisite 
 skill that it successfully rivals the best foreign perfumes.

 JONAS WHITCOMB’S 
 
 REMEDY FOR ASTHMA, 
 
 ROSE COLD, HAY FEVER, &c. 
 
 This remedy has been used in thousands of the worst 
 cases, with astonishing and uniform success; and is offered 
 to the public with full confidence in its merits. 
 
 Extract from the “ Life of Washington Irving,” by his 
 nephew, Pierre M. Irving, Vol. IV., page 27-. 
 
 “The doctor prescribed, as an experiment,—what had 
 been suggested by Dr. (<>. W.) Holmes on his late visit.— 
 
 ‘ Jonas \Y hit comb's Remedy for Asthma,’ a feaspoouful 
 in a wine-glass of water, to be taken every four hours. A 
 good night was the result.” 
 
 “ I have had the spasmodic asthma fifteen years. I com¬ 
 menced taking ‘Jonas Whitcomb’s Remedy lor the Asthma’ 
 eighteen months ago, and have not had a severe paroxysm 
 since.” SARAH SEELY, Eddy town, Yates Co., N. Y., to 
 Editors Rural New Yorker, 
 
 “Have sold 4 Whitcomb’s Remedy ’ for nearly twenty 
 years. I know of nothing so unii.-nn'y successful.” 
 THEODORE METCALF, Druggist, Tremont be., Boston. 
 
 u I have derived very great benefit from ‘Jonas Whit¬ 
 comb’s Asthma Remedy : ” G. 1. OSBORNE, President 
 Neptune Insurance Co., Boston, Mass. 
 
 44 1 cannot express in too strong tcrni3 my appreciation 
 of t lie merits oi tins * Remedy,’ and 1 earnestly recommend 
 its use.” JACOB D. S TONE, formerly P. M. at Hoiner, IS.Y. 
 
 41 lias done me more good t ban any medicine T ever had.” 
 W. C. KELLAR, of Bautliu & Keliar, Cincinnati, O. 
 
 “My mother had suffered eight years from the harvest 
 asthma. The recurrence of this three-months’ agony eveiy 
 v<*nr must soon wear her out. 4 Jonas Whitcomb’s Asthma 
 R. medy ’ arrested the terrible disease, and has kept it olf 
 for the whole season, 1o the great joy of the family.” 
 Rev. JOS. E. ROY, Chicago Agent of the American Home 
 Missionary Society, to the N. Y. Independent,

 NEW YORK SUPERIOR COURT. 
 
 At the Special Teem, April, 1859. 
 Pieekepont, Justice. The following decision was 
 given: 
 
 “ It appeared before me, upon the trial of this canse, 
 that the plaintiff, in November, 1850, compounded, from 
 Cocoa-nut Oil and other ingredients, a mixture to be 
 used upon the human hair; that lie devised a name 
 never before used, by which to mark his said compound, 
 to wit:—the name or word ‘ Cocoaine:’ that he forth¬ 
 with published in all his circulars, and in all the prin¬ 
 cipal newspapers of the country, and especially in the 
 city of New York, where the delendauts reside, that lie 
 had adopted the above-mentioned name or title as a 
 ‘ Trade-Mark,’ to secure the public and the proprietors 
 against imposition, and that all unauthorized use of 
 this trade-mark would be prosecuted. * * * 
 
 “ About two years after the first introduction of this 
 article by the plaintiffs, the defendants, residents of the 
 city of New York, commenced the sale of a somewhat 
 similar preparation, put up in bottles not unlike those 
 0 / the plaintiff’s ******** 
 “The proof is clear that the plaintiff had, for nearly 
 two years, advertised his mixture in nearly every news¬ 
 paper in tins city, and had published in the same papers 
 ! that he had adopted the word ‘ Cocoaine’ as his Trade- 
 j .Mark. The defendant was himself a witness, and he did 
 ! not suggest that these notices had not been brought 
 | home to his knowledge; the conclusion is irresistible, 
 i that he was aware of their publication, and he inten¬ 
 tionally adopted ‘Cocoine’ as a close imitation of 
 ‘Cocoaine,’ and for the purpose of deriving profit from 
 the simulated Trade-Mark. 
 
 “The plaintiff is entitled to judgment, and an injunc¬ 
 tion must issue.” 
 
 NEW YORK COURT OF APPEALS. 
 
 At the July Term, 1887, Davies, Chief Justice, the 
 | following final decision was given:— 
 
 “Upon the facts found by the Court, the right of the 
 plaintiffs to the relief granted is clear. The plaintiffs 
 have adopted, appropriated, and used a certain Trade- 
 Mark. This has become their property; and for its 
 protection the plaintiffs are entitled to invoke the aid of 
 courts of justice. We have the ascertained fact that the 
 defendants are using a spurious imitation of the plain¬ 
 tiffs’ Trade-Mark. This they cannot be permitted to do. 
 
 “The judgment of the Superior Court of New l’ork 
 was correct, and should be affirmed, with costs." 
 
 Undertake nothing without thoroughly considering it.
