This preparation la known throughout the civilised world to be far superior to any thing yet discovered for eradicating tick, scab or Hee on sheep, goats or cattle. It is sufficient, to say that One Shilling Packet of the Powder dissolved in two buckets of water will wash Eighteen Sbeap. This admits the most economial, as well as the simplest plan in the world for the cure and prevention of diseases incident to farm stock By its use the farmer can secure the health of bis stock at the rate of |p per head per annum. , , . In al large Sheep Districts In Australia, South America, and Africa, no other pro paration is used. The vermin destroyer is also invaluable for the purp of the Horticulturist; and it Is moat extensively used by the Flower and Kitchen Gardener n Europe, America, and the British possessions In all parts of the Globe. One packet dissolved in two buckets of water will serve for over half an acre of ground and will effectually prevent blight and exclude all other garden pests. As a Vermin Killer it is an unrivalled specific. Its use will speedily exterminate all household pests, such as bugs, cockroaches, fleas on animals, moths in furs, and insects on birds of all kinds, from the canary to the poultry. For this purpose simpl and plain directions are given on every packet. The powder can also *»e used In dry state for the destruction of rats and mice. A little sprinkled on a slice of bread and butter, or a piece of meat or cheese Is sought after greedily by those vermlA while the household pets such as cats and dogs will not touch it in any form, and si therefore perfectly safe. , , . „ _ , The above marvellous discovery has gained for Merman Bros, and 00., London, the silver medal at thv .ntercolonlal Exhibition at Melbourne, 1866, besides numerous testimonials from Government officia and all the elite of the medical faculty in Europe.

Dear Friends —We have some hesita tion in addressing you in the manner fol 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 Haydock s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Yials of Dr Haydock’s New Liver Pills. The reason of this de mand 1s because we find in Haydock’a 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 Haydock 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 Fills suffices to the stomach In perfect order creates appetite, and renders the spirit light a: buoyant. If the Liver is affected its fur tiv ns are restored, and if the Nervo System is enfeebled, it is invigorated ai sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Province of Rurmah, 8.1.
