AN INEXPRESSIBLE BOON TO MOTHERS. Dr Auguste Kurpteiner's f ELECTRO GALYAHIC TEETHIM NECKLET, Endorsed by the Medical Faoulty of Europe, j And pronounced by al Leading Physicians The Greatest Discovery of the Age IN placing the Eleotrio Necklet before the New Zealand pnblio the discoverer and proprietor begs to draw Speolal attention to the fact that the material surround- ing the inner ohain of naetalllo substanoea is impregnated' with a chemical solution, harmless m itself, and yet containing titanic powers, whioh generate a continuous light current of galvanism, and the Necklet m consequence contains all the virtues of a miniature battery, and is therefore not a useless artiole like so many of the so-called eleotrio appliances, whioh oannot possibly produce any good results, as they are Incomplete m the most essenUal requirements, and cannot generate galvanism nor produce gaivanio effeots. This Neoklet Is the outcome of a long-oontinued series of investigating experiments by that well-known and eminent solentißt and specialist, Dr Auguste Kuratelner, who is the highest Europesn authority on all diseases of women and children The Lancet, the leading medical journal of the world, says : — M The fict that the discovery and invention of these Necklets is announced by Dr Knrstelner la a sufficient guarantee that a means has at last been discovered whioh will save the lives of millions of children, and relieve the anxiety of many mothers. ' Although new to New Zealand, these Neoklets have been used for the last five years with the most Wonderful Success m England, on the Continent, and m the United States, and are now oonstantly prescribed by the moot eminent physicians ln their dally practice. 1 It Is needless to oomment on the anxious and sleepless night* passed by 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 Neoklet. In addition to the relief from pain afforded by the Necklet during the period of dentition, by its nerve givi-g force it wards off and prevents Measles, Whooping* Oough, Scarlet Fever, Group, and Chicken Pox, thus relieving childhood of its martyrdom, and gladdening the heart of every mother who Invokes its aid, Dr Knrstelner hss appointed Messrs CONROD & CO., Auckland,, bis sole agents In New Zealand for the sale of these NeokleVs, from whom only they can be obtained. The price has been placed at thievery lowest possible point, point, barely covering the cost of importation, and is within the reach of all, ai one 1 Neoklet will last a life time. Aside from Its many virtues as a remedial md preventive agent, the Necklet, a handsome ornament, and will be sent free on receipt of One Pound, by pstao note, money order; or registered letter.
