AN INEXPRESSIBLE BOON TO MOTHERS, Dr Auguste Kureteiner's ELECTRO GALVANIC TEETHM NECKLET* Endorsed by the Medical Faculty of Europe, And pronounced by al Leading Physicians The Greatest Discovery of the Age IN placing the Electric Necklet before the New Zealand pnbllc the discoverer and proprietor begß to draw Speoial attention to the fact that the material surround- ing the inner chain c? Metallic substances iB Impregnated with a chemical Bolution, harmless m itself, &n3. yet containing titanic po-eru, which generate a continuous light current of galvanism, and the Necklet In consequence contains all the vlrtuea of a miniature battery, and is therefore not a useless article like so many of the so-oalled electric appliances, which cannot poßslbly produce any good results, as they are incomplete m the most essential requirements, and cannot generate galvanism nor produce galvanlo effeots. This Neoklet la the outcome of a long-continued series of investigating experiments by that well-known and eminent oolentiat and specialist, Dr A agnate Kurstelner, who is the highest European authority on all diseases of women and children The Lanoet, the leading medical journal of the world, sayß : — " The feet that the discovery and invention of these Necklets is announced by Dr Kurstelnervis a sufficient guarantee that a means has at last been discovered whioh will Bave the lives of millions of ohildren, and relieve the anxiety of many mothers. ' Although new to New Zealand, fcheße Necklets have been used for the last five yeatß with the most Wonderful Success m England, on the Continent, and m the United Statea, and are now constantly prescribed by the most eminent physicians m; their daily practice. It is needless to comment on the anxlons and Bledploas nights paeaed by thousands of mothera during the. painful period of the teething of Infants. Every day brings to an untimely grave hundreds of infants whose liveß might have been saved by the use of the Blmple Necklet. In addition to the relief from pain afforded by tho Necklet during the period of dentition, by its nerve-giving force it wards off and prevents Meaßles, Whooping Cough, Scarlet Fever, Croup, and Chicken Pox, thus relieving childhood of ita I niartyrdom, and gladdening the heart of every mother who invokes its aid, Vr Kurßteiner has appointed Messrs CONROD & CO., Auckland, bis sole agents m New Zealand for the D&le of these Necklets, from whom only they can be obtained. Tho price haß been placed at th 6 very loweßt possible point, point, barely covering the coal of importation, and is within the reach of all, as one Necklet will last a life time. Aside from its many virtues as a remedial and preventive agent, the Necklet i a handsome ornament, and will be sent free on receipt of One Pound, by poela note, money order, or registered letter. No cheques received. Address- J, CONROD & CO., P.O. Box 408, Auckland, N.Z. < DIPPmU- SB&BiJfM, 1887.

F FERRIMAN would call your attention • to this Improved Farm Fanning Mill which combines all the advartogrs of the various Milla now m use, and also the follow- ing important and greatly needed Improve- ments : — First.— ln the width of the Mill, it being wider than most Farm Mills of similar size, thereby increasing the cleaning capacity to a large extent. Second — The improved plan of hoping th shoe npon strong strap-hinged hangers, thn preventing constant breakage. Thied. — Id thematterff fastening the dram ha head to the potts k$ means of a castiron lorf circle, end B r cnred to the posts by eorews (instead of wooden cleats morticed into posts and held by wooden keys), adding increased strength and durability to the Mill. Fourth.— The greßt advantage of raising or lowering the slide m the Hopper means of a screw. The irons sue of the most approved the wheel, pinion, and shake itons being strong. The gearing is all placed on the in* side of the mill, out of the way. , -The bearing iB formed by the hub of the l'irgo wheel run- ning m a thimble or box, three inches long, of Chilled Iron and extending through the posts, giving it a steady and easy motion. For denning and separating all kinds of grain, we guarantee thie Mill to be equal to, and m fact superior, m all respects, to any now m nee. The fan with wind boards are so ar- ranged that the wind strikes thehnrdle m Burh a manner as to blow all fcul stuff and light grain over the hurdle. The side spout delivers > the No 1 £ rain at the side, and the No 2 grain at the front of the Mill. The grader can \se so adjusted as to separate and deliver through the side spout a greater or less portion of the best groin; The wheat screens and grader are so arranged us to effectually take out ccckle from No 1 and No 2 whaat» No Fatmer or Dealer Bhonld bo without one es they are inraluable to all who wish to market their seed m gcod condition, and thus save the heavy deductions usually made for impurities and fonl stuff, and also the extra freight charges and cost of cleaning. They also save time, and by the thorough and com* plete work which can be accomplished with them, coon repay the cost incurred m their purchase. To Farmers raisin gjlarge quantities of Grain, or Seerp, we would recommend the No 2 Ware- house Mill, as specially adapted for their use, as the great saving of time will compensate for the difference m the first cost. They can be rnn hy hand as easily a» a Farm Size, altho :gh constructed much heavier, and made more durable. Be guided by experience of others and order a "Badne Mill." You d^n't wnnt a better record than it has. Read. MADE A SPLENDID JOB. I put some bags of wheat through last spring, they made a splendid job. A neighbor borrowed mine to rnn through some oaty wheat ; he was highly pleased with the job they made. — William Blaf b, Hillfort Waiwera. NEVER SAW ITS EQJAL. i have only used the " Racine " Mill, as yet, for dressing oats, wheat, and graßS eeed. It has given me great satisfaction. I have never seen its equal for grading wheat for seed, and I have seen and helped \o work a good many. — Wn MAM Bkook, Church Hill. Waiwera. COMPLIMENTARY. I am very much pleased with it,— JOHK Cameron, Swift Creek, KelßO. COULD NOT BAVE A BETTER CHARACTER. I have given the •' Bacine " Warehouse Fan Mill a gooi trial, and it gives every sa'isiac- t on. I consider it " first-rate article. It cleans and grades grain rapidly and well, is Btron g, works Bmoothly,and will, I think, prove durable. It is much Erperior to any other machine of the kind I have ever seen.— F. W. Mackenzie (the Captain). Poreahaka. BEST MACHINE OF THE KIND I HAVE EVER SEEN. I have tried it with wheat, oats, and turnip eeed I can confidently say that it is all thai it claims to be. In fact, it is a long way the best machine of the kind I have ever seen, With a larger assortment of riddles, I believs it will dress m a superior manner any kind geeds.— William Littlejohn, Waiwera WOULD >OT LIKE TO WANT ONE NOW— NO ONE SHOULD. I can confidently recommend the " Racine Fanners te do Iheir work well, and with extreme facility. I would not by any meani like to want one now, and I think no farmei should —David Mackenzie, Waiwera.
