LITILE’S SHEEP DIP A FTER several years’ trial, this NON-POISONOUS DIPPING FLUID is now /\ universally admitted to bo the best ever introduced. Its groat 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 animals, and in its cleanliness, and absolute harmlessneas to those concerned in its use. Being of an oily character, it is highly beneficial to the growth of the Wool, which it leaves soP, clean and bright, without robbing it of the yolk its natural nourish uient —or leaving it harsh and dy, as is the case when alkaline mixtures, such as lime and sulphur, or arsenical prparations are used. It 1s entirely without the ruinous effects invariably resulting from the use of such materials. It is 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 SPEOIF'IU 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 char? Ater, sheep will not catch cold, though dipped in the depth of winter.

Medical. Q N E WORD. Dear Friends —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 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. 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 Haydook’s New Liver Pills. The reason of this de. maud is because we find In Haydock’ g 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 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 is affected its func tions are restored, and if the Nervous System is enfeebled, it is invigorated and I sustained.



March 20,1884. 1 have used your 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 yoor Lang 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. I have recommended It to my friends, who have also proved It a very palatable and speedy cure for chest and throat complaints. I have uniformly found a single dose of “ Lung Preserver,” check a severe paroxysm of coughing.

Thk Bad and Worthless are never imitated or counterfeited. This is es peciaUy 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 Hop Bitters was the purest, best, and most valuable tamily medicine on earth, many imitnHnn S sprung up and began to steal the notices in which the press and the people of the country had expressed the menu of H. 8., and in every way trying to induce sufiering invalids to use their stuff instead, expecting to maV» money on the credit and good name of H. B, Many others started nostrums put up in simi< lar style to H. 8., 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 matter what their style or name is, and with the word “Hop” or “Hops”2wßsy name or in any way connected with thern'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 inula tions counterfeits.
