Tim Whiffler was by Van Galeo, out of Sybil, by Ugly Buck, out of Sylph, by Titba da puta, Van Galen being by Van Tromp, out of Little Casino, by Inheritor. Flying Scud was a dark bay mare, bred in Victoria by Mr J. Harper in 1865, got by Fisherman, her dam being Jeanette by Little John, Whilhelmina by Romeo, Moss Rose by Emigrant, the I nter mare (For extended pedigree see English and Australian stud b oks ) Tim Whiffler was scarcely ever beaten in England. The dam of this horse being by Fisherman shows his grand biood, as a study of the stud book will show that Mmket's great success has been from Australian bred mares, for the descendants of the grand old Fisherman, viz., Martini- Henry, Nordenfelt, and Trenton, are al descended from Fisherman on the dams side.

The reason of this de mand is because we find in Baydook’ New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary , combination of concentrated medicine The Victories of Science— B. ectrlo Telegraphs, Steam and Printing revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet ter, So, s-lthougb 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 Doctors, whose vast doses of four or five pills enfeeble the stomach and paralyse the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with oho or two of bis extraordinary Vegetable Fills. 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 func tions are restored, and if the Nervous System is enfeebled, it ia invigorated and sustained.
