Dr Auguste Kursteiner’s ELECTRO GALVANIC TEETHING NECKLET, Endorsed by the Medical Faculty of Europe, And pronounced by all Leading Phyoi iana The Greatest Discovery of the Ago IN pi acing the Electric Necklet before the Now Zealand public tiro discoverer and proprietor begs to draw -pecial attention to the fact that the mateiial surround ing the inner chain of metallic jubstancis is Impregnated with a chemical solution, harmless in itself, and yet containing (Panic l owers, which generate a continuous light current of galvanism, and the Necklet in consequence contains ail the virtues of a miniature battery, and is therefore not a useless article liko bo many of the so-cal od electric appliances, which cannot possibly produce apy good results, as they are incomplete in the most essential requirement.!, and cannot generate galvanism nor produce gaivanic effects. This Necklet Is the outcome of a long-continued cedes of investigating experiments by that well-known and eminent scientist and specialist, Dr Auguste Kurstelner, who is iho highest European authority on all diseases of women and children The Lanort, the loading medical journal of the world, says The fact that the discovery and invention of these Necklets is announced by Dr Kursteiner is a sufficient guarantee that a means has at last been discovered which will save the lives of millions of children, and relieve the anxiety of many mothers.” Although now to New Zealand, these Necklets have been used for the last five years with the roost Wonderful Success in England, on the Continent, and in the United States, and are now constantly prescribed by the most eminent physicians In their daily practice. It is needless to comment on the anxious and sleepless nights passed by thousands of mothers during the fivnful period of the teething cf Infants. Every day brings to an untimely grave hundreds of infants whose lives might have been saved by the use of the simple Necklet. In addition to the reliet from pam afforded by the Necklet during the period of dentition, by its nerve-giving force it wards off and prevents Measles, Whooping Cough, Scarlet Fever, On.up, and Chicken Pox, thus relieving childhood of its martyrdom, and gladdening the heart of every mother who invokes its aid. Dr Kursteiner has appointed Mestrs CONROD A CO., Auckland, bis sole aoenta in New Zealand for the sale of these Necklets, from whom only they can bo obtained. The price has been placed at the very lowest possible point, point, barely covering the cost c f importation, and is within the reach of all, as one Necklet will last a hfe time. Aside from its many virtues as a remedial and preventive agent, tho Necklet is a handsome ornament, and will be sent free on receipt of One Pound, by postal note, money order, or registered letter. No cheques received. Address-J CONROD & CO., P. O. Box 408, Auckland, N.Z, (s 3E DRIMK (S> e Bestfeas I N THE Qr\£ t/i oat e THOUGH J ru Rr RiSJS fcEO U'' THOUGH COPIED A BY ALL.
