THE PATENT OVAL SAMSON FENCE WIRE Has now been before the public for four years, and during that time 5,000 TONS HAVE BEEN SOLD Giving very great satisfaction, in proof of which we hold numerous testimonials from well-known colonists ; and the demand is daily increasing to such an extent, that numerous spurious imitations have lately been introduced in the various markets of Australia and New Zealand, for the sole purpose of damaging the reputation of the Patent Oval Samson Wire. ! The Samson Wire By using the Patent Oval Fence Wire you get a better and cheaper fence than any other, and the best proofs are the nutations already referred to.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS. We can conscientiously recommed'those suffering from deafness or other ailments that Dr. Grant has mS.de a special study of, to pay him a visit, when, if curable patients, they may certainly expect relief. An instance came' urider our notice on Thursday, in the case i of a man named Charles Swanson, wB&-h'ad been very deaf for three years, after ten days’ treatment, can now hear perfectly even the lowest whisper. The oure is a rather remarkable one, as ho had heea under the care of many medical men, but has re-i ceived no benefit whatever from their treatment —New Zealander, Hq c. 27,1879. i Mr. Earnest D‘Egville Michau called’at 3 our office yesterday, and stated that' he 4 had been blind with the right eye all his lifetime. Hearing about Dr. Grant, the oculist, who is now on a visit to this city, 3 he determined to give him a trial. He > had only been under Dr. Grants treat-. ment ten or eleven days when he found that he could see large objects at softie dis f tance. Mr. Michau states that he Itad ’ been under the treatment of some of the J best medical men at home, but had not; 4 received the least benefit. We are at J all times chary of accepting details of f “ W T onderful cures,” but the young man who called at our office appearei to be telling the truth, and was exceedingly grateful to Dr. Gant for the relief which he ha’s-‘already experienced. —New Zea land Times, Dec. 25, 1879. Dr. Grant has recently “effected a very remarkable cure, in the case of Mrs. D. - Evans, of Kumara, who has been under his treatment for deafness since Feb. 14, • last. Mrs. Evans has been deaf in both . ears for a very long period—no less than thirty years—her affliction having been caused by a fever, from which she suffered severely. Since that time she has been i, almost totally deaf, for she could only f hear the the loudest sounds. Since she i- has been under Dr. Grant’s treatment her hearing has gradually improved,- so' that 1 now she can hear plainly conversation in ’ an ordinary tone of voice. She will re -1 turn in a few days to Kumara perfectly ’ well, and in possession of the full faculty 6 of which she has been so long deprived.— West Coast Times, March 10, 1880. j One of-'the employees in the Public Works office here has sent us the follow* 3 ing testimonial to the skill of Dr. Grant. He says :—“I wish to let you know that ■- Dr. Grant has greatly improved the hear -8 ing of one of my ears, the membrane of which was injured some six years ago. I may add that two surgeons, whom I con sulted a short time agoj considered the ’ case incurable. ” Dr. Grant has also been very successful in several difficult cases of ’ disease of the eye. —Hokitika Times , 3 March 23, 1880. There are amongst Dr. Grant’s success y ful eye cases at Hokitika, a young lady, = at J. Jack’s, Esq., the Mayor, cured, j operation, of squinting; and Wavent, operation for artificial pupil. 0 Dr. Grant is also SPECIALIST in the ‘ DISEASES uf -“WOMEN and CHIL DREN. 428 TXT HO is Mrs. WINSLOW? As this t » question is frequently asked, we shall simply say that she is a lady who for 3 upwards of thirty years has untireingly ! devoted her time and talents as a female physician and nurse, principally among children. She lias especially studied the constitution and wants of this numerous J, class, and, as. a result of this effort and > practical knowledge obtained in a lifetime r as nurse and ' physician, she has com , pounded a SOOTHING SYRUP for Chil . dren. It operates' like magic, giving rest and health, and is, moreover, sure to regulate the bowels. In consequence of thift article, Mrs. Winslow is becoming j world-renouned as a benefactor of her , race. Children certainly do rise up and bless hei\ Especially is this the case in i this city. .Vast quantities of the Soothing Syrup are daily sold and used here. We think Mrs Winslow has immortalised her name by this invaluable article, and we sincerely believe that thousands of chil dren have been saved from an early grave Dy its timely use, and that millions yet unborn will share its benefits and unite in calling her blessed. No mother has dis charged %er duty to her suffering little one, ,in our opinion, until she has given it the benefit of Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup. Try it mothors, try it now.— Ladies’ Visitor, New York City. Advice to mothers.—Are you broken in your rest by a sick child, suffering with the pain of cutting teeth ? Go at once to the chemist and get a bottle of Mrs. WINSLOW’S SOOTHING SYRUP. It will relieve the poor sufferer immediately. It is perfectly harmless ; ; it produces natural, quiet sleep by reliev ing the child from pain, and the little cherub awakes “ as bright as a button.” It has been in use in America, and is highly recommended by medical men. It is very pleasant to take; it sooths the child ; it softens the gums, allays all pain, relieve? wind, regulates the bowels, and is the beat known remedy fop dyaentry and diarrhoea, whether arising from eething or other causes, Be sure and ask for Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup, and see that “ Curtis and Perkins, New i Votk and London,” is on the outside : wrapper.

This preparation has never been known to fail in restoring the hair|to its natural color and gloss in from eight to twelve days. It promotes growth and prevents the hair falling out, eradicating dandruff, and leaving the scalp in a clean; healthy condition. It imparts peculiar vitality to the roots of the hair, restoring it to "its youthful freshness and vigor. Daily applications of this preparation for a week or two will surely restore faded, grey, or white hair to its natural color and richness. It is not a dye, nor does it con tain any coloring matter or offensive substance whatever. Hence it does not soil the hands, the scalp, <jr even white linen, but produces the color within the substance of the hair. Read the follow ing from Mr. Nathan Beny, Chemist, Walkden : “One of my customers told me the other day he had had grey hair for thirty-five years, and after using one bottle of the Mexican Hair Renewer I sold him, it was restored to and kept its natural color. ”5 It may be had of any respectable Chemist, Perfumer, or Dealer in toilet articles in the kingdom, at 3s. 6(L p«r bottle.—Prepared by HENRY C, GALLUP, No. 493, Oxford street, London, COCKLE’S ANTIBILIOUS PILLS— These Fills consist of a careful and peculiar admixture of the best and mild est vegetable aperients, with the pure ex tract of the flowers of the camomila, They will be found a most efficacious remedy for derangement of the digestive organs, and for torpid action of the liver and bowels, which produce indigestion and the several varieties of bilions and liver complaints. They speedily remove the irritation and feverish state of the stomach, allay spasm, correct the morbid condition of tfife liver and organs subser vient to digestion, promote a due and healthy secretion of bile, and relieve the constitution of all gouty matter and other impurities, which, by circulating in. the blood, most injuriously affect the action of the kidneys; thus, by removing the causes productive of so much discomfort, they restore the energies of both body and mind. To those who indulge in the luxuries of the table these pills will prove highly useful, occasioning no pain in their action, unless they meet with an unusual quantity of acrid bile and acid matter in the stomach and bowels. To Europeans on their arrival in India or China they are recommended as a preservative against the fatal disorders peculiar to tropical climates. Their occasional use, if com bined with the strictest attention to diet, will be frequently found to remove at once, by their influence over the secre tions, that congestive and unhealthy con dition of the liver which is so often the earliest antecedent of severe febrile and constitutional disturbance. It must be. understood that these pills are not recommended as containing any new or dangerously active ingredients; on the contrary* they are characterised by .a remarkable simplicity of combination, and whatever merit they may be found to



possess depends as ipuch upon the selec tion of pure drugs, and 'the unusual labor and attention bestowed upon their subset quent preparation, as upon the acknow ledged peculiarity of their composition. They are not recommended as a panacea, nor are they adapted to all complaints; but as a mild and efficacious aperient and tonic in the various forma of indigestion, it will not, perhaps, be an exaggeration to state that they have bedh resorted to ■ under all systems of diet, changes of cli mate, or atmospheric alternations with an extraordinary degree of success for upwards of seventy-eight years. This celebrated family aperient may be had ' throughout the United Kingdom in / at Is l£d, 2s 9d, 4a 6d, and 11s Od, as J. well as in India, China, New Zealand, and' / the Australian (Monies.
