DUNSTABLE HOUSE, Established 1864. 4 491 jsC The Thoroughbred Horse Macilleathean XX7ILL stand in Asbbutton and trave T ' the surrounding districts this season; He is a dark brown or black horse, stands 16 hands high, got by English Tim Whiffl-r, out of Flying Scud. Tim Whiffler was by Van Galen, out of Sybil, by Ugly Buck, out of Sylph, by Titha-da puts, Van Galen being by Van Tromp, out of JLittlo Casino, by Inheritor. Flying Scud was a dark bay mare, bred in Victoria by Mr J. Harper in 1865, got by Fisherman, her dam being Jeanette by Little John, Whilbelmina by Romeo, Moss Bose by Emigrant, the Driver mare (For extended pedigree see English and Australian stud broke ) Tim Whiffler was scarcely erer beaten in England. The dam of this horse being by Fisherman shows his grand blood, as a study of the stud book will show that Musket’s great success has been from Australian bred mares, for the descendants of the grand old Fisherman, viz., Martini- Henry, Nordenfelt, and Trenton, are al descended from Fisherman on the dams side.

Medical 0 N E WORD. Dbab Frihhds— We have eoaio hesita tion In addressing you 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 our regard for your health that causes us to do it. We Lave 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 cu 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 Haydook s Now liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Baydook’s New Liver Pills. The reason of this de mand is because we find in Bay dock' New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination oi concentrated medicine. The Victories of Science— Electric Telegraphs, Steam and Priuting —revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet tor. So, although there are countless Pills used for diseases and claiming mnch 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 paralyse the bowels, most 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 to place the stomach in perfect order creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant If the Liver 1s affected its func tions are restored, and If the Nervous System is enfeebled, it is Invigorated and sustained.

TESTIWNULS: Prom Rev. Charles Penny— Reefton (Late of Christchurch),. _ , March 17, 1884. I am happy to say!your Pnlmonlo Elixir afforded my wife and children almost im mediate relief in congha and colda, and 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 l give relief (the cough was so distressing) the first dose of your Elixir proved most effective. In another case (sore throat) a cure was soon brought about that the patient resolved n the future to .take no thing else. Other oases could be cited, but those will be sufficient to show that your Pul monic Elkli is a remedy of no mean order. From 0. F. S alter, Esq. , Barrister and Solicitor— Inglia' Buildings, Christchurch. March 20,1884. I have used your Pulmonic Elixir in my family for some years past, and have found it very efficacious in obest and throat complaints. From William Rees, Esq. / Shipping and Customs Agent— Lyttelton’, Nov. 28. 1883. I have used your Long Preserver in my family for the last fourteen years, there for s have the greatest pleasure in bearing testimony to its efficacy in the treatment of coughs, colds, bronchitis, croup whoop ing cough, etc. I 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 I con sider it a boon to mankind.



From Isaaq Aues Esq, , Commission Agent— Hereford street, Christchurch, December 5, 1883. After seven years’ experience I have great pleasure In testifying to the efficacy of your “ Lang Preserver,” having proved It in my family to be a specific for conghs. colde, etc., a few doses Invariably subdu ing the nasty harassing cough, while re lieving the throat and chest, it does not, like other nostrums, disorder the digestive organa by inducing nausea, constipation, headaches, loss of appetite, oto. I can heartily recommend it aa the best, cheapest and most palatable ' mixture known for coughs, colds, bronchitis, whooping cough, etc. So highly do we esteem it that we always keep a supply on hand. FromW. B, Scorr, Esq., Builder, etc., Peterborough reet, Christchurch, December 4, 1883. Some years ago I was recommended to try a bottle of your “ Fulmonie Elixir and Lung Preserver,” for tightness in the chest, I did so, and from that time I have never been without it in the house. 1 have found It to answer in every respect for coughs, cold?, and sore throat, and would strongly advise those th*t are suf fering from such complaints to try it. To be had of all Chemists and Store keepers, in bottles, la lid, 2a 9d, 4s 6d and 11 s each. Wholesale Agents—J. Baxter, Chemist, 21, Victoria street, Christchurch ; Messrs P.
