Medical Q N B WORD, Dear Friends— We have some hesita tion in addressing yon 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 oar 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 baaed 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, la only to note the extraordinary amount of the sales of our Hay dock a New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydook’s New Liver Pills, The reason of this de. maud is because we had in Haydock’ s 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 tor. So, although there are countless Pills used for diseases and claiming much as to their merit, the remarkable dis covery of Dr Uaydock has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys tem. The Doctors, whoso vast doses of four or five pills enfeeble the stomach and paralyze the bowels, must 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 sntlices 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 Norvons System is enfeebled, It is invigorated and sustained.

Consumption, Coughs, Colds, Bronchitis, Asthma, Whooping Cough, Sore Throat, and all affections of the Ghost and Throat, KFFCTUALLY RELIEVED & CURED BY [ BAXTER’S Liimg Preserver. TEST LOCALS : From Rev. Chaux.ee Penny— Reefton (Late of Christchurch), March 17, 1884. I am happy to sayjyour 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 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 In the future to take no thing else. Other cases could be cited, but these will be sufficient to show that your Pul monic Elixir la a remedy of no moan order. Irom 0. F.
