Friedlander Brothers. Ashburton has always been to the fore, and it would belie its well earned reputation were some of its enterprising inhabitants to rest dor mant in these dull and depressed times without giving the public some thing to talk about. We requite something start ling, and what is mure, we must have something which will do «ur eyes, our hearts, our pockets good. Who then can deny that the present rninous struggle for busi ness which is being car ried on by a few of these enterprising business people, does not tend in that direction. If there is any doubt, come and let your pockets be light ened, allow your hearts to delight, and your eyes become bright at the low prices our goods are being sold at our busi ness premises.

Dear Friends —We have some hesita tion in addressing you in the manner fal lowing, but hope that it will not be looked at in any invidious light, when we state that it is only our regard for your health that causes us to do it. We have been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years, and have in the long course of this time manufactured certain Medicines that being based on scientific formula and absolute care and precision in manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far in advance of any other Pharmaceuti cal Preparations of the day. How suc cessful we have been in this, is only to note the extraordinary amount of the sales of our Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydock’s New Liver Pills. The reason of this de mand is because we find in Haydook’s New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medicine. The Victories of Science— Electric Telegraphs, Steam and Printing —revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet ter. So, although there are countless Pills used for diseases and claiming much as to their merit, the remarkable dis covery of Dr Haydook has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys tem. The Doctors, whose vast doses of four or five pills enfeeble the stomach and paralyze the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with one or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay dock’s New Liver Pills suffices to place the stomach in perfect order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is affected its func tions are restored, and if the Nervous System is enfeebled, it is invigorated and sustained. 9 1718 Medical. N E WORD.

BLEATING, London The Bad and" Worthless are never imitated or counterfeited. This is CS* pecially true of a family medicine, .and' it is positive proof that the remedy imitated : is of the highest -value. As soon as it has been tested and proved by the whole world that Hop Bitters was the purest, best, and most valuable family medicine on earth, many imitations sprung up and began to steal the notices in which the press and the people of the country had expressed the merits of H. 8,, and in every way trying to induce suffering invalids to use their stud instead, expecting to make money on the credit and good name of H. B Many others started nostrums put up in .simi lar style to H. 8., with variously devised names in which the word “ Hop 1 or “Heps ” were used in a way to induce people to believe they were the same as Hop Bitters. All such pretended remedies or cures, no matter what their style or name is, and espedalljMhose with the word “Hop” or “Hops” la their name or in any way connected with them at their name, are imitations or counterfeits. . Be* ware of them. Touch none of them. Use nothing but genuine American Hop Bitters, with a bunch or cluster of green Hops on the w* : te label, and Dr Sonic’s name blown in th glass. Trust nothing else. - Druggistsand ch .mists are warned agamst dealingin-fin ta ions or counterfeit* TEEDMAN’S SOOTHING POWDEFS FOR CHILDREN CUTTING TEETEL CAUTION TO~PURCHASER g[The value of this well-known Family Medi cine has been largely tested in all puts of the world, and by all grades of society, for upwards o/JFIFTY YEARS.
