Dr Auguste Kursteiuer’s ELECTRO GALVANIC TEETHING NECKLET, Eudoised by the Medical Faculty of Europe, And pronounced by nil Lending I’hysi hns The Greatest Discoyery of the Age IN placing the Electric Necklet before tho Now Zealand public the discoverer and proprietor begs to draw Special attention to tho fact (hat the matoiid surround ing the inner chain of metallic eubdcnofs is impregnat'd with a chemical solution, harmless in iteolf, and yet containing titanic lowers, which generate a continuous light current of galvanism, and tho Necklet in consequence contains ail the viitues of a miniature battery, and is therefore no! a useless artio’e like so many of the ro-cal'ed electric appliances, which cannot possibly produce any good results, as they are Incomplete in the most essential requirements, and cannot generate galvanism nor produce 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 Augusts Kursteinor, who is ihe highest European authority on all diseases of women and children The Lancst, the loading medical journal of tho world, says ; —“ The fact that the discovery and Invention < f these Necklets is announced by Dr Kurstelner is a sufficient guarantee that a means has at Ir-st been discovered which will save the Uvea 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 Ihe most 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. 1 It is needless to comment on the anxious and sleepless nights passed by thousands of mothers during (he [ahiful period of the teething of infants. Every . day brings to an untimely grave hundreds of infanta whose lives might have been saved by the use of the simple Necklet, In addition to the rcliet from pa>n afforded by tho Necklet during the period of dentition, by Us nerve-giving force it wards off and prevents Measles, Whooping Cough, Scarlet Fever, Croup, and Chicken Pox, thus relieving childhood of IBs martyrdom, and gladde»ing tho heart of every mother who Invokes its aid. Dr Kursteinor has appointed Mosers CONROD A- 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 c -vering the cost t f importation, and is within the roach of all, as one Neckiet will last a life time. Aside from its many virtues ar a remedial and preventive agent, tho Necklet is a handao ne ornament, and will be sent free on receipt of One Pound, by postal note, money order, or registered letter.
