Medical. r\ N B WORD. Dxab Fbiikds— We have some hesita- tion m addressing you m the manner fol- lowing, but hope that It will not be looked at m any invidious light, when we state that it is only our ke^arl for your health that causes us to do It We have been a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years and have m the long course of this time manufactured certain Medicines that being based on scientific formula and absolnte care and precision m manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far m advance of any other Pharmaceuti- cal Preparations of the day. How sue ceesful we have been m this, Is only to note the extraordinary amonnt of the rales of oar Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to atate that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydook'* New Liver Pills. The reason of this de. mand is because we find In Haydook' New Liver Fills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medicine. The Victories of Soience— Eleotrlo Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet- ter. So, although there are countless Pills used for diseases and claiming muob m to their merit, the remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eollpsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys- tem. The Doctors, whose vast doses of four or five pills enfeeble the stomach and paralyse the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with odd oy two' of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay- dooVs New Liver Pills suffices to place the stomach m perfect order oreates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is affected its f unc- tions are restored, and if the Nervous System la enfeebled, it is invigorated and sustained. TRANSLATION. Aykab, Provmce of Burmah, 8.1.

SLESINGER'S Rheumatic Balsam. THE greatest discovery ever yet made for the relief of human sufferers from Mus- cular or Nervous Affection is SLESINGER'S RHEUMATIC BALSAM. Of all the advertised remedies and all the prescriptions from the medical faculty /or the ! cure of Rheumatism, Rheumatic Gout, Scia- j tica, Tic Douloureux, Neuralgia, Lumbago, Strains or Sprains, Chilblains, or pains of any sort from the above aft'ections, none have been so successful and effectual as jjLESINGER'S RHEUMATIC BALSAM. And why ? you will aslr. Because there h no nonsense about it. You arc not asked to swallow so many pills or so many spoonfuls of mixture or draughts, 2, 3, or 4 limes a day, or every ether day ; or to use hot, cold, shower, or Turkish Bath« ; or to take oravokl this, that, or the other food ; or to drink only such and such fluid, and not to drink anything else; or to t ke such and such exercise, etc., etc. No ! Slksinukr's KiiiXmatic Balsam requires no such stipulation ! Eat and drink according to your own good sense, and if you only use the Balsam as directed on each bottle, m one day, ani even m less time, or after one or two app'icatfon. 0 , you are relieved from your pain and sufferings, and you will bless the inventer of the Balsam. Furthermore, ycu are not asked to repeat the dose, that is to say, to tuy another bottle or another box of pills. No ! nothing of the sort is wanted. One bottle, although small m appearance, but large m its eficct, is qu ; te sufficient m the worst of case?, and often rrom 20 to ico drops, according to the surface of the complaint, is sufficient for & cure. CERTIFICATE. Moray Place. Dunedin. Mr Slesingei, V,S.,|Hope Street. Dear Sir,- I have much pleasure m report- ing to you thai, after having used your Rheu. m»tic Balsam m cases of Neuralgia, Acute, and Chronic Rheumatics, 1 have found it really a useful remedy, I have, therefore, no hesitation m recom* mending the same for the above-mentioned cases. — Yours, etc., C.

MAN CAN BE HIS OWN |HOR«E DpCTOR,! By using SLESINGER'S PREPARATIONS, As detailed below. FOR HORSES: T^HE Colic or Gripe Drink.— Horses are A very liable to Colic or Gripe, and, if eglectcd, this complaint may m a few hours ' erminate m inflammation, stranijulption, tympanitis, and death. This Colic Draught will give relief m less than two hours, and often within ten minutes. The Embrocation. — For the treatment of Cuts, Wounds, Bruises from Saddle, Girths, *or Harness, Sore Shoulders, Strains, Spr?ins, Rheumatism, Windgalls, Swellings, etc. If either of these injuries or complaints be ne. glected for a few hours, they may take weelcs to cure, The Condition Powders. — For restoring and keeping the Horse m good health, relieving Hide-bound, Surfeit, Mange, Grease, inn Skin Eruptions, correcting a diseased state of the Stomach, Bowels, Kidney, Bladder, Liver, etc. The Worm Powders.— The Horse is very subject to Worms, frequently unsuspected by the owner. Thousands of Horses die for the want of these Powders, and tbe owner is none ihe wiser for it ; and, unless a post mortem examination is made, does not know that his Horse suffered from these reptiles. On all occasions, wheu the animal is poor, m low condition, hide-bound, or occasionally passing a worm, give one of tnese Powers night and morning, as directed on each tin. The Blister Ointment is superior to any other. After using it, i he hair returns to its natural color, and, unlike any other, no blemish is left. The Hoof Oils.— The chief cause of Lame* ness m Horses is some injury or defect m the Foot, which may cause irflammation of the Foot, and bring on other distases, such as | inflammation ol the Bowels, Kidneys, Lungs, : .| These Oils, if used m time, w,ll prevent or cure brittle Hoofs, Sandcracks, Contrac tion, Quittor, Cauker, Corns, Thrush «r Frush, Narrow Heels, Hoof-bound, Navicular Joint Disease, etc., all of which the hor.-e is subject to, and is liable to fall and endanger the life of his rider. 1 his may be avoided by using this Oil d«ily, or two or three limes a week. The Grease Ointment — For the cure of Grease, Crown Scabs, Rat-tail, Mallcnders aDd Sallenders, or any Skin Etuption. DOG MEDICINES : The Distemper Powders are a Perfect Cure, and may also be given m other ailments. The Mange Ointments. — May be used for the Mange or any other Inflammatory Diseases of the Skin m the Horse or Dog. It may be mixed with four times its quantity of Neatsfoot Oil, being eas'er of application, By keeping a supply on hand, which costs but very "tt'c, you c«i cure your Horses yourself » .inout the aid of a Veterinary Sur- geon. N.B.— Age does not affect the strength or 4uality of either medicine. *F*AU the ! medicines arc sold by| F. FEBRIMAff, EAST STREET, lASHBURTON, Sole Agent,
