Its great superiority over other materials consists in its cheapness, its undoubted efficacy in destroying all ticks, lice, and every insect that, infests the skins of sheep or domestic animals, and in its cleanliness, and absolute hsrmlessness to those concerned in its use. Being of au oily character, it is highly beneficial to the growth of the Wool, which it leaves soP, clean and bright, without robbing it of the *< Ik—its natural nourish ment—or leaving it harsh and dy, as is the case when ei l aline mixtures, such as lime and sulphur, or arsenical prparations are used. It \s entirely without the ruinous effects invariably resulting from the use of such materials. It is not only non-poisonoua, hut may be used internally for worm in the throat in lambs ; it wil also effectually cure foot-rot, and AS A SPECIFIC FOR '-'MB IT HAS NEVER BEEN KNOWN TO FAIL. To those who dip in full fi ee, this fluid will be found invaluable, for, being of a warm and protecting co are -.ter, sheep will not catch cold, though dipped in the depth of winter.

Medical. Q N K WORD. Dear Friends —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 Preparations of the day. llow suc cessful we have been in this, is only to note the extraordinary amount of the sales of our Haydook a New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Ylais of Dr Haydock’s New Liver Pills. The reason of this do. mand 1s because we find In Haydook’ 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 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 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 New 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, TRANSLATION. Aykab, Province of Burmah, 8.1. Honored and Learned Physician—The unworthy one who dares to address you and ocme before you humbly in the dust, begs for his people (caste) that you would deign to look upon their ignoble miseries and cure them with your Life-giving grains (Pills).

ALS : From Rev. Charles Penny— 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 j many to whom I have had the pleasure of recommending yonr 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 aose of your Elixir proved most effective. In another case (sore throat) a euro was soon brought about that the patient resolved In the future to take no thing else. Other cases could be cited, but these will be sufficient to show that your Pul monio Elixir Is a remedy of no mean order.

The Bad and Worthless are never imitated or counterfeited. This Is es pecially true of a family medicine, and it is posibve proof that the remedy imitated is of the highest value. As soon as it has been tested and prove by the whole world that Hop BUters was the purest, best, and most valuable i amity medicine 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 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 devised names in which the word “ Hop ” or “Hops * were used in a way to induce people to believe hey were the same as Hop Bitters. All such pretended remedies or cures, no matter what their style or name is, and especially with the word “Hop” or “Hops” m their name or many way connected with or their name, are mutations or counterfeits Beware of them. Touch none of nothing bat genuine American Hop lHHrs with a bunch or cluster of green Hops on the white label, and Dr Soule’s same blown in the glass. Trust nothing else. Druggists and chemists are warned against dt-aling m ; m ;^ a tions counterfeits.
