Medical. IS E WORD. Dbar Friknds —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 la only onr regard for your health that causes ua 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. Host suc cessful vte 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 wo find In Haydock 1 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 Hay nock has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys tem. The Doctors, whose vast doses of four or five pllia enfeeble the stomach and paralyze the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with one or two ot hla extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One 01 two of Dr Hay dock’s Now Liver Pills suffices tc 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.



BY BAXTER’S Lung Preserver. TEST 'Vfr Kg A.L& ; From Rev. Chaules Fenny— Reefton (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 bo 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 bo cited, but these will be sufficient to show that your Pul monic Elixir is a remedy of no mean order.



From 0. F. Salteb, Esq., Barrister and Solicitor— Inglla’ Buildings, Christchurch. March 20,1881 I 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 naed yonr Lung Preserver In my family for the last fourteen years, there for a 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 a very palatable and speedy cure for chest and throat complaints. I have uniformly found a single dose of “ Lung Preserver," check a severe paroxysm of coughing. I shall on ail occasions have great pleasure In recommending It to sufferers, as I con sider it a boon to mankind.



From Isaac AiiEjf Esq, , Commission Agent— Hereford street, Christchurch, December 6, 1883.

As soon as it has been tested and prove by the whole world that Hon Bitters was the purest, best, and most valuable i amity medicme on earth, many imitations sprung up and began to steal the notices in winch the press and the people of the country had expressed the merits of H. 8., and in every way ttying to induce sufiering invalids to use their stuff instead, expecting to m,ir. money on the credit ana good name of H.

All such pretended remedies or cures, no matter what their style or name is, and especially thny. with the word “Hop” or “Hops" in their name or many way connected with tVn or their name, are imitations or counterfeits. Beware of them. Touch none of them. Use nothing but genuine American Hop Bitters with a bunch or cluster of green Hops on the white label, and Dr Soule’s name blown in the glass. Trust nothing else.
