This preparation is known throughout the civilised world to be far superior to any thing yet'discovered for eradicating tick, scab or lice on sheep, goats or cattle. It ia sufficient to say that One Shilling Packet of the Powder dissolved in two buckets of water will wash Eighteen Sbeep. This admits the most economial, aa'Tvell 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 hla stock at the rate of |d 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 most 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. Aa 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 aimpl snd plain directions are given on every packet. The powder can also ho 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 vennM while the household pets such aa cats and dogs will not touch it In any form, and s& therefore perfectly safe. The above marvellous discovery baa gained for Herman Bros, and Co., London, the silver medal at the intercolonial Exhibition at Melbourne, 1866, besides numerous testimonials from Government offioia and all the elite of the medical faculty in Europe. HERMAN BROS. & CO. beg to announce that they have appointed CHARLES NEATE, Chemist and Druggist, East street, their sole Agent for Ashburton and vicinity, and from him the preparation can be obtained in paroels. Price—One Shilling; or six packets for Five Shillings. Liberal reduction lowed to the trade. Manufactory—BEAUMONT SQUARE, MILE END ROAD, LONDON. 8 23

Consumption, Coughs, Colds, Bronchitis, Asthma, Whooping Cough, Sore Throat, and all affections of the Chest and Throat, EFFCTU ALLY RELIEVED & CURED BY BAXTER S Lung Preserver. TESTIMONIALS : From Rev. Charles Penny— Reef ton (Late of Christchurch), March 17, 1884. I am happy to say'your Pulmonic Elixir afforded my wife and children almost im mediate relief in coughs and colds, and many to whom I have had the pleasure of recommending your specific have spoken of it as invaluable. In one case when every remedy tried was powerless to give relief (the cough was so distressing) the first dose of your Elixir proved most effective. In another case (sore throat) a cure was soon brought about that the patient resolved in the future to take no thing else. Other cases could be cited, but those will be sufficient to show that your Pul monic Elixir is a remedy of no mean order. From C. F. Salter, Esq. , Barrister and Solicitor— IngHs’ Buildings, Christchurch. March 20, 1884 1 have used your Pulmonic Elixir in my family for some years past, and have found it very efficacious in chest and throat complaints. From William Reed, Esq., Shipping and Customs Agent— Lyttelton, Nov. 28. 1883. I have used yonc Lang Preserver in my family for the last fourteen years, there fora have the greatest pleasure in bearing testimony to its efficacy in the treatment of coughs, colds, bronchitis, croup whoop ing cough, etc. I have recommended it to my friends, who have also proved it very palatable and speedy care for chest and throat complaints, 1 have uniformly found a single dose of “ Lung Preserver, check a severe paroxysm of coughing, shall on all occasions have great pleasure in recommending it to sufferers, as 1 con sider it a boon to mankind. From Isaac Allen Esq., Commission Agent— Hereford street, Christchurch, December 5, 1883. After seven years’ experience 1 have great pleasure in testifying to the efficacy of your “ Lung Preserver,” having proved it in my family to be a specific for coughs, colds, etc., a few doses invariably subdu ing the nasty harassing cough, while re lieving the throat and cheat, it does not, like other nostrums, disorder the digestive organs by inducing nausea, constipation, headaches, loss of appetite, etc. 1 can heartily recommend it as the best, cheapest and most palatable mixture known for coughs, colds, bronchitis, whooping cough, etc. '6o highly do we esteem it that we always keep a supply on hand. From W. B. Scott, Esq. , Builder, etc., Peterborough street, Christchurch, December 4, 1883. Some years ago I was recommended to try a bottle of your “ Pulmonic Elixir and Lung Preserver,” for tightness in the chest I did so, and from that time I have never been without it in the house. 1 have found it to answer in every respect for coughs, colds, and sore throat, and would strongly advise those that are suf fering from such complaints to try it.

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 r 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 Vials of Dr Haydock’s New Liver Pills. The reason of this de j mand is because we find in Hay'dock’s New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra j ordinary combination of concentrated medicine. The Victories of Science — Electric Telegraphs, Steam and Printing —revolutionised the whole system of the 8 globe, and made mankind wiser and bet r ter. So, although there are countless ? Fills used for diseases and claiming much as to their merit, the remark *.ble 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 vho 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 funo . tions are restored, and if the Nervous System is enfeebled, it is invigorated and r sustained. TRANSLATION. ' Aykab, Province of Burmah, 8.1.

Haydock : Dear Sir —I received your Pills a week ago. I have tried them and must say that 1 never had so much good done by anything as they have me. 1 have suffered for years with billiousneas and have been so sick at times as not to care to live, but your Pills have cured me. One aged man hero has taken from me only two of your Pills, and I wish you could see him. He has had no appetite for five months, and to-day he ate a dinner such as api ughman eats. 1 had to check him, but he laughed and said he was treating his stomach to a new sensation, for it really was hungry. 1 hand you with this four dollars.

KEATING, London The Bad and Worthless are never imitated or cotmierfeited. This is es 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 stuff 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 devise names in which the word ” Hop ’ 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 especially those with the word “ Hop ” or •* Hops ” in their name or in any way connected with them or their name, are imitations or counterfeits.
