Dr Augu^e Kureteiner's ELECTRO GALYAIC TEETHING NECKLET, Endorsed by the .Medical Faculty of Europe, And pronounced by all . . . - ... " 3211 — "pfrffifog THryafrianU'ri __"I1 " The Greatest Discovery of the Age IN placing the Electric Necklet before the New Zealand pnblio the discoverer and proprietor begs to draw Special attention to the fact that the material surround- ing the inner chain of metallic substances is impregnated with a chemical solution, harmless m itdelf, and yet containing titanic rowers, which generate a continuous light current of galvanism, and the Necklet m consequence contains ail the virtues of a miniature battery, and is therefore not a useless artiole like so many of the 80-called electric appliances, which cannot possibly produce any good results, as they are incomplete m the most essential requirements, and cannot generate galvanism nor produce galvanic effects. This Necklet la the outcome of a long-continued series of Investigating experiments by that well-known and eminent scientist and specialist, Dr Anguste Kurßtelner, who is the highest Europesn authority on all diseases of women and children The Lancet, the leading medical journal of the world, says :— " The faot that the discovery and Invention of these Necklets is announced by Dr Knrsteiner is a sufficient guarantee that a means has at laßt been discovered which will save the lives of millions of children, and relieve the anxiety of many mothers." Although new to New Zealand, these Neckletß have been used for the last five years with thejnost Wonderful Succoaa m England, on the Continent, and m the United States, and are now oorratantly prescribed by the most eminent physicians m their daily practice. It is needless to comment on the anxious and sleepless nights passed by thouEands 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 übo of the simple Necklet. In addition to the relief from pain afforded by the Necklet during the period of dentitiou, by Its nerve-giving force it wards off and prevents Meaßles, Whooping Cough, Scarlet Fever, Croup, and Chicken Pox, thus relieving childhood of its martyrdom, and gladdening the heart of every mother who invokes its aid, Dr Kursteiner has appointed Mosers CONROD Sc. CO., Auckland, Mb sole agenta m New Zealand for the sale of theee Necklets, from vrhom only they can be obtained. The price has been placed at the very lowest possible point, point, barely covering the cost of importation, and Is within the reaoh of all, as one Necklet will last a lifa time. Aside from its many virtues &3 a remodial and preventive agent, the Necklet 1 a handsome ornament, and will be sent free on receipt of One Pound, by posta note, money order, or registered letter. No cheques received. Address- J 00NR0D & CO., P.O. Box 408, Auckland, N.Z.
