WHO is Mrs. WDfSLOW 1 As this question, is frequently we shall simply say that she is a - lady who for upwards of thirty years has untireinfely devoted her time and talents as a female physician and nurse, principally aifadng children. She has especially studied the constitution and wants of this numerous class, and, as a result of this effort' and practical knowledge obtained in a lifetime as nurse and physician, she has com pounded a SOOTHING SYRUP for Chil dren. It operates like magic, giving test and health, and is, moreover, sure to regulate the bowels. In consequence of r this .article, Mrs. - Winslow is becoming wbrld-renouned as a* behefactqx of' her race. Children certainly do rise fap and bless her. Especially is this the caSe in this city. Vast quantities of the Soothing Syrup are daily sold and used here, j We think Mrs Winslow has immortalised he£ name by this invaluable article, and we sincerely believe that thousands of chil dren have been saved from an early grave by its itinjely use, and thatTmillions yet Unbbtarwill share 'iis bdnefits and unite in calling her blessed.

[Extract from Telegraph, April 28th.] What I suffered for twenty-three years, language fails me to describe. Those suf fering from that distressing complaint— bronchitis—are the only ones that can form any idea of it. However, to make the matter short, I have had the best advice to be obtained, both here and in Cornwall, England, without any beneficial result. When at about the lowest ebb, a friend called my attention to Mr Wallis’ advertisement in the Star. I called on that gentleman, stated ,my case; His answer was—“ ! can’t cure you, but can do you a world of good.” He attended me for a week ; the result astounded me ; within two days he gave me more relief than all the drugs I have taken during half a life-time.. Although Mr Wallis told;me he couldn’t cure me, yet I have been at work three months in splendid health, and still feel first rate. The only apology I can offer you, is that the hun dreds suffering-from the same complaint may get relief as I did.—Yours, etc,, ' Johnson 1 Thomas. Aldred street, Christchurch.

To Mr Wallis, Hydropathist. ; Dear Sir, —I send you the following to make any use of you like. Some years ago Mrs Sherlock was under the care Of an eminent M.D., suffering from a large fluid tumour internally. Under his care she gradually grew worse, and was at last reduced to a mere skeleton. In this stage : three of the leading doctors in Christchurch held a consultation, finally deciding that nothing could be done for her. In this critical state I placed her under your cate, when, to the astonish ment of every one that knew her (the doctor included), in two months you com pletely cured her ; and ever since, lam, happy to say, she has enjoyed the best of health. Any person desiring further information can either apply to : Mrs Sherlock, Durham street, or at j my photographic ibonis, Oxford terrace. ' I have the honor to remain, Yours truly, Wm.
