AN|INEXPRESSIBLE BOON TO MOTHERS, Dr Auguste Kurpteiner's E EL£GTBfO GALVANIC TEETHING RECKLETj [ \ ; Endorsed by the Medical Faculty of Europe, I And prononnced by al Leading Phyalcianß The Greatest Discovery of the Age IN placing the Electric Necklet before the New Zealand pnbllo the discoverer and proprietor begs to draw Special attention to the fact that the material inrronnd- iDg the loner chain of roetallla Babstances la Impregnated with a chemical eotatfon, harmless m itaelf, and yet containing titanio powers, which generate a continues* light onrrent of galvanism, and the Neoklet m consequence contains ail the virtual of a miniature battery, and io therefore not a useless artiole like co many of the ao-6slled eleotrlo appliances, which cannot possibly prodnce any good results, as they, awf incomplete In the most essential requirements, and cannot generate galvanism nor prodnoe galvanic effects. This Neoklet is the ontoome of a long-continued eerie* of Investigating experiments by that well-known and eminent soientist and specialist, Dr. Aagaste Kursteiner, who Is the highest Kuropesn authority on all disease* of women and children The Lanobx, the leading medical journal of the world, says :— " The faot that the discovery and invention of these Necklets is announced by Dr Knrstelnei is a Bcffiolent guarantee that a means hai at last been discovered which will cave the lives 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 yean with the most Wonderful Success m England, on the Continent, and m the United States, and are now constantly prescribed by the most eminent physlolans In their dally praotlce. It is needless to comment on the anxious and sleepless night* paused by 1 thousands of mothers during the painful period of the teething of Infants. Every day brings to an untimely grave hundreds of Infants whose lives might have been saved by the use of the simple Necklet, In addition to the relief from pain afforded by the Neoklet during the period of dentition, by its nerve glvhg force It wards off and prevents Measles.Whooplng Oough, Soarlet Fever, Group, and Ohioken Pox, thus relieving ohildhood of Its martyrdom, and gladdening the heart of every mother who Invokes Its aid, Dr Kursteiner has appointed Messrs CONROD & CO., Auokland, his aole agents m 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 covering the cost of importation, and Ii within the reach of all, ai one Necklet will last a life time. Aside from its many virtueß as a remedial and preventive agent, the Necklet!) a handsome ornament, and will be sent free on reoeipt of One Pound, by pstao note, money order, or registered letter. No cheques received. Address— J. CONROD & 00., ______ ' P.O. Box 408. Auokland, N.Z. "P. and D. Duncan, AGBICULTUKAL IMPLEMENT MANUFACTUREBS, i CfIBISTCKttRCH AND ASHBURTON.
