Whooping Cough, Sore Throat, and all affections of the Chest and Throat, EFFOTUALLYRELIEVED & OCRED BY BAXTER’S tiling Preserver. TEST WNIALS: From Rev. Charles Penny— Reofton (Late of Christchurch), March 17, 1884. I am happy to say'your Pulmonic Elixir afforded my wife and children almost im mediate relief in coughs and colds, and many to whom I have had the pleasnre 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 oases could be cited, but these will be sufficient to show that your Pul monic Elixir Is a remedy of no mean order.

Dkab Friends—We have soaie hesita tion In addressing yon In the manner fol lowing, but hope that it will not bo 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 hoig course of this 'dme manufacture!:! cos Medicines that being baaed ou aciem.uc formula and ebsolnto care and precision in manufacture, have enjoyed a popular:tj far in advance of any other Pharmaceuti cal Preparations of the day. How suc cessful we have been lu this, is only to note the extraordinary amount of the sales of oat Haydook s .New i iver Pill. Wo have the pleasure to state that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Hayuock’e New Liver Pills. The reason of this de mand is because we find In Bay dock' New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra 1 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 Fills used for diseases and claiming much 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 pllis enfeeble the stomach and paralyse the bowels, mast 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 Now Liver Pills suffices 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 Nervous System is enfeebled, it Is invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykao, Prov s te of Bnrmah, 8.1.
