Its great superiority over other materials consists in its cheapness, its undonb ■ J ctlicacy in destroying all ticks, lice, and every insect that infests the skins of si- p or domestic animals, and in its cleanliness, and absolute hsrmlcssness to tt.o.e concerned in its use. Being of on oily character, it is highly beneficial to the gro-. tii of the Woo], which it leaves sop, clean and bright, without robbing it of the yolk its natural nourish meat—or leaving it harsh and dy, as is the case when a,!! - ‘ in mixtures, such as lime and sulphur, or arsenical ptparations are used. It a ntirely without the ruinous effects invariably resulting from the use of such in '-rials. It is not only non-poisonous, but may be used internally for worm in the throat in lambs ; it wil also effectually cure foot rot, and AS A SPECIFIC FOR SCAR IT HAS NEVER IiEEN KNOWiS TO FaIL. To those who dip in full fleece, this fluid will be found invaluable, for, being of a warm and protecting chars -ter, sheep will not catch cold, though dipped in the depth of winter.

Medical Q N K WOli D, Dear Friends— We have so.no hesita tion in addressing you In the manner fol lowing, bat hope that it will not be looked at in any invidious light, when we state that it Is only our 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 based 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. Jlow suc cessful we have been in this, is only to note the extraordinary amount of the sales of our Haydook a New Liver Pill. Wo have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Ylala of Dr Baydock’a New Liver Pills. The reason of this de. mand Is because we find in Baydock’ e Now 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 Fills used for diabases and claiming much as to their merit, the romarkible dis covery of Dr Haydock has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys tem. The Doctors, whoso vast doses of four or five piha enfeeble the stomach and paralyse the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with ono or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. Ono 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. Aykad, Provlaoe of iiurmah, 8.1.

Thk Bad and Worthless are never imitated or counterfeited. This is ea pecially true of a family medicine, and it is positive proof that the remedy imitated is of 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 iamily medicine on earth, many imitations sprung up and began to steal the notices in which the press and the people of the country had expressed the merits of H. and in every way trying to induce suffering invalids to use their stuff instead, expecting to main. money on the credit and goad name of H. B. Many others started nostrums put up in simi lar style to H. B f> 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 their style or name is, and with the word “Hop” or “Hops” in their name or in any way connected with 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 c- counterfeits-
