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 baaed 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 a New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydook’s New Liver Pills, The reason of this de. maud is because we find in Uaydock' B 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 tor, So, although there are countless Pills ased for diseases and claiming mnch 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 live 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 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.

TEST'iVJf Nr A.LS ; From Rkv, Chaulee Penny— Ileefton (Lata of Christchurch), March 17, 1884, I am happy to Pulmonic Elixir afforded ray 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 Jake no thing else. Other cases could be cited, but these will be sufficient to show that your Pul monic Elixir is a remedy of no mean order. From 0. F. Saitbe. Esq., Barrister and Solicitor— Inglia’ Buildings, Christchurch. March 20, 1884 I have used your Pulmonic Elixir In my family for some years past, and have found It very efficacious In chest and throat complaints.

The Bad and Worthless arc never imitated or counterfeited. This Is ea I P e “flly true of a family medicine, and it is I R os, i lv lP? of , that 1116 remedy imitated is ol the highest value. As soon as it has been tested and prove by the whole world that Hon Bitters was the purest, best, and most valuable I tamily medicine on earth, many imitations sprang 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 suflering 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 devist names in which the word “Hop ” or “iT“* were used in a way to induce people to hey were the same as Hop Bitters. All such pretended remedies or cures, no matter what 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. 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. Druggists and chemists are warned against dealing in imita tions r - counterfeits. STEEDMAN’S SOOTHING POWDERS FOR CHILDREN CUTTING TEETH. CAUTION TO PURCHASERS.
