Medical. .JJ-ONK’S NEW ZEALAND Herbal Remedies. DIARRHOEA., DYSENTERY, &0., Completely conquered by Monk’s Herbal Extract (Registered), Price 2s 6d and 4s per bottle. The above “Extract” is one of the moat marvellous discoveries of the age. Its effects are instantaneous, and never fail in chronic or acute oases, however severe. ; The great properties of this medicine consist in its never producing coative hess, no matter how freely used, and its being perfectly harmless and purely her bal, yet curing Diarrhcea, Dysentery; Eng lish Cholera, etc. , with the greatest cer tainty. TESTIMONIALS. Rangiora, July 7, 1881. . Sir, —Having carefully examined the N.Z. Herbal Extract, I find it to be a skilfully prepared vegetable preparation, possessing the properties of the plants from which it is derived in a highly con centrated state, a fact which I have veri fied by evaporating a fluid drachm placed in a watch glass over a spirit lamp. On weighing the result, a dark green extract, I found the weight to be 14J grains. On further submitting the extract to analysis I found it to be rich in tannin. In a large number of cases of ordinary diarrhoea, as well as in many chronic cases and in dysentery, I have proved it to possess great specific control, added to the unusual feature in a majority of diarrhoea medi cines, that it does not subsequently con stipate the bowels. I feel satisfied that, from the number of trials I haire been enabled to make of it in a somewhat ex tensive practice, it is a most valuable addition to modern therapeutics. , The following cases are taken at ran dom from my note book : ; Case No. I—Mrs M , West Eyre ton, suffering for two years from chronic dysentery, which had reduced her almost to a skeleton. After a fortnight’s trial not only had the diarrhoea stopped, but she commenced eating meat without pain, and the usual concomitant vomiting. In two months she had gained 181bs weight. Case No. 2—A G., child, aged five years. Fortnight diarrhoea. Was effectually cured on third day. Case No. 3—A soldier who had con tracted'dysentery in India got a small two ounce phial, and was well before he had finished half of it.

GRATEFUL COMFORTING EPPS'S 0.0 00 A. BREAKFAST. BY a thorough knowledge of the natural laws which govern the operations of digestion and nutrition, and by a careful application of the fine properties of well selected cocoa, Mr. Epps has provided our breakfast tables with a delicately flavoured beverage which may save us many heavy doctor’s bills. It is by the judicious use of such articles of diet that a constitution may be gradually built up until strong enough to resist every ten pency to disease. Hundreds of subtl maladies are floating around us ready t attack wherever there is a weak point. We may escape many a fatal shaft by keeping ourselves well fortified with pur . blood and a properly nourished frame.— See article in the Civil Service Gazette. Made simply with boiling water or milk Sold only in packets, labelled : JAME? EPPS AND CO., HOMOEOPATHIC CHEMIST. LONDON. ALSO, EPPS CHOCOLATE ESSENCE JQR HEILBRON’S WORM OAKES. These Cakes are principally prepared from Herbs, and do not contain any dan gerously active ingredients. They have a wonderful effect in curing children, as well as grown persons, by removing the worms. They have been with grea suc cess introduey into the principal families in Europe, Australia, and New Zealand. They are guaranteed to do away, in a very short time, with many serious complaints, like Bronchitis, Piles, Ulcers, Ulcerated, Throats, etc., if taken in time, as these sicknesses are often caused by worms of all kinds, especiolly by the Tape Worm, and by the most dangerous Thread Worm, which, if not destroyed in time, will soon create the liardly-curatle Worm Fever, The smallest, the Thread Worm, will more than any other worm penetrate through all the crevices of the body up to the brain. An example was recently wit nessed, where a child falling continually into fits (the parents not knowing the cause) at last died with the brain affected by the too fatal Thread Worm. Still more recently there was a case, a grown man whose seat, was affected by the Thread Worm, and who, after trying many sorts of remedies, without effect was directly relieved by a dose of DR HEILBRON’S Worm Cakes.



There are cases where the worms come away that they almost can be „counted ; then often they come away in whole clots, and sometimes in a thick and slimy stuff, and although not so perceptible, still they are caused to leave by Dr Heilbrons Worm Cakes. And there have been other cases where children affected with Worms, when coughing or sneezing, do discharge them through the mouth and nose. The symptoms of Worms are generally as follows ;—Lassitude, Giddiness, De pression of Spirits, Impaired Appetite (which if not acted against, will engender diseases of the bile), Disorder of the Stomach and Digestive Organs, Sick Headaches, Vomiting, Disturbed Sleep, and many more serious complaints, in cluding Fits, of which last many persons have been cured by these Worm Oakes, No time should be lost in removing these Worms, else the consequence will be seri ous, as they will increas.o in size and quantity, and. ultimately spread through out the intestines. If Worms are ne glected for a time they will do so much damage as to make it beyond human skill, to restore and reorganise the system, of digestive organs. DIRECTIONS FOR USB. The quantity of these Worm Oakes to be taken at a dose depends mostly on the age and constitution of the patient. In most cases a couple of doses will drive the worms away for many 'years, if not en tirely. As a standard : A dose for a child up to 2 years will be half a Cake ; from -2 to 4 years old, one whole Cake ; from 4 to 8 years, one Cake and a half ; fromß to 14, two Cakes ; and so to increase with the age, but never more than four Cakes at one dose. Grown females may gene rally take three Oakes at a dose, and grown men four Cakes, according to con stitution. The moat effective way of using these Worm Cakes is by taking the dose before going to bed, and on the following morning to take a cup of hot tea before breakfast. jpSS- As I am not certain how long I may stay in this town, and as these Worm Oakes can be obtained at a very small ex pense families will do well to have always a small supply of them at their houses. Orders for the Country promptly executed.
