Medical. QIS E WORD. Dkab Fbibnds —We have some hesita tion in addressing yon 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 oar 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 baaed on scientific formula and absolute care and precision in manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far in advance of any other Pharmaceuti cal I‘reparations of the day. How suc cessful we have been in this, is only to note the extraordinary amoahV of the sale*, of our IJaydock s .New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Hayclook’a New Liver Pills. The reason of this de mand is because we find in Haydook’ New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medicine The Victories of Science— Electric • elographa, Steam and Printing —revolu'ionised 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 Doctoru, whose vast doses of four or five piles enfeeble the stomach and paralyse the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with one or two of hia extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay dock’s New Liver Pills suffices to place the ctomach 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 snd sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykao, Province of Burmah, 8.1. Honored and Learned Physician—The unworthy one who dares to address you and come before you humbly in the dust, begs for bh people (caste) that you would deign to look npou their ignoble miseries and cure them with your Life-giving grains (Pills). Illustrious one your most potent medicine is life to them and their children, and all the Drug Bazaars are empty and your Soul is not In them. This humble petitioner, although he is lowly and net worthy to bo In your high presence prays that you will graciously permit your Life gr- { us (Pills) to come to Aykab.

TEST'VfrN2ALS: hrom Rev. Charles Penny— Reefton (Late of Christchurch), March 17, 1884 I am happy to aay t *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 oases could be cited, but these will be sufficient to show that your Pul monic Elixir is a remedy of no m f, vn order. From 0. F, Salter, Esq., Barrister and Solicitor— Inglla’ Buildings, Christchurch. L 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. I From William Reed, Esq. ,' Shipping and Customs Agent— ■ Lyttelton, Nov. 28, 1883. E I have used your Lung Preserver In my family for the last fourteen years, there . fora have the greatest pleasure In bearing 1 testimony to its efficacy in the treatment of coughs, colds, bronchitis, croup whoop -3 ing cough, etc. I have recommended It , to my friends, who have also proved it a y very palatable and speedy cure for chest and throat complaints. I have uniformly r found a single dose of “ Lnng Preserver,” - check a severe paroxysm of coughing. I f shall on all occasions have great pleasure lo recommending it to sufferers, as I con - elder it a boon to mankind.



From Is Aio Allen Esq,, Commission Agent— Hereford street, Christchurch, December 5, 1883. After seven years' experience I 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 chest, it does not, like other nostrums, disorder the digestive organs by inducing nausea, constipation, headaches, loss of appetite, etc. I can heartily recommend it as the best, cheapest and moat palatable mixture known for coughs, colds, bronchitis, whooping cough, etc. So highly do we esteem it that we always keep a supply on hand.
