N.B.—Ask your Chemist or Storekeeper for It, 4 482 LITTLE’S SHEEP DIP A FTER several years’ trial, thia NON-POISONOUS DIPPING FLUID Is now universally admitted to be the best ever Introduced. 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 anßfials, and In its cleanliness, and absolute hsrmlessness to those concerned in Its use. Being of an oily character, It is highly beneficial to the growth of the Wool, which it leaves aoP, clean and bright, without robbing it of the yolk—its natural nourish meat—or leaving it harsh and dy, as is the case when alkaline mixtures, such as lime and sulphur, or arsenical prparatlons are used. It 1s entirely without the ruinous effects invariably resulting from tho use of such materials. It is not only non-poisouous, but may be used internally for worm in the throat in lambs ; it wll also effectually euro foot-rot, and AS A SPECIFIC FOR SCAB IT HAS NEVER BEEN KNOWN TO FaIL. To those who dip in full fleece, this fluid will be found invaluable, for, being of a warm and protecting character, sheep will not catch cold, though dipped in the depth of winter.

TEST W NS ALB: From Rev. Charles Penny— Beef ton (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 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 congh was so distressing) the first dose of yonr 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 mean ! order. From 0. F. Salxeb, Esq., Barrister and Solicitor— Inglla’ Buildings, Christchurch. March 20,1884 1 have used yonr Pulmonic Elixir in my family for some years past, and have found it very efficacious In chest and throat complaints. From William Reed, Esq./Shipping and Customs Agent— Lyttelton, Nov. 28. 1883. 1 have used yonr Lung Preserver in my family for the last fourteen years, there fore have the greatest pleasure in bearing testimony to its efficacy in the treatment of coughs, colds, bronchitis, croup whoop ing cough, etc. 1 have recommended it to my friends, who have also proved it a very palatable and speedy cure for chest and throat complaints. 1 have uniformly found a single dose of “ Lung Preserver,” check a severe paroxysm of coughing. I shall on all occasions have great pleasure in recommending it to sufferers, as 1 con sider it a boon to mankind.



Medical. OIS E WORD. Dbab Fkibnds —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 1s only our regard for your health that causes 149 to do it. We have been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for manyy 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. How suc cessful we have been in this, is only to note the extraordinary amount of the sales of our Haydock s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr flaydock’s New Liver Pills. The reason of this de. mand is because we find in Uaydock’ B 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 Haydock 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 one or two df his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. 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 la invigorated and sustained.
