T CURRENT RATES. George Jameson arfibthto AN INEXPRESSIBLE BOON TO MOTHERS. Dr Auguste Kursteiner’s ELECTRO GALVANIC TEETHING NECKLET, Endorsed by the Medical Faculty of Europe, And pronounced by all Leading Physicians The Greatest Discovery of the Ago



IN placing the Electric Necklet before the New Zealand public the discoverer and proprietor begs to draw Special attention to the fact that the material surround ing the Inner chain of metallic substances is Impregnate with a chemical solution, harmless In itself, and yet containing tiianlc rowers, 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 like so many of the so-called electric appliances, which cannot possibly produce any good results, as they are incomplete in the most essential requirements, and cannot generate galvanism nor prodace galvanic effects. This Necklet is the outcome of a long-continued series of investigating experiments by that well-known and eminent scientist and specialist, Dr Auguste Kurstelner, who Is the highest European authority on all diseases of women and children The Lancet, the leading medical journal of the world, says “ The fact that the discovery and Invention of these Necklets Is announced by Dr Kurstelner 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 new 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 painful 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 pain afforded by the Necklet during the period of dentition, by its nerve-giving force It wards off and prevents Measles, Whooping Cough, Scarlet Fever, Croup, and Chicken Pox, thus relieving childhood of its martyrdom, and gladdening the heart of every mother who invokes its aid, Dr Kurstelner has appointed Messrs CONPOD fr CO., Auckland, his sole agents in New Zealand for the sale of these Necklets, from whom only they can be obtained. The price has been placed at the very lowest possible point, point, barely covering the coat of importation, and is within the reach of all, as one Necklet will last a life time. Aside from Its many virtues as a remedial and preventive agent, the 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&OO., P.O. Box 408. Auckland, N.Z.
