AN INEXPRESSIBLE BOON TO MOTHERS, Dr Auguste Kurpteiner's ELECTRO GALVANIC TEETHING NECKLET Endorsed by the Medical Faculty of Earope, And pronounced by al Leading Phyalciano The Greatest Discovery of the Age IN placing the Electric Necklet before the New Zealand pnbllc the dlsooverer and proprietor bees to draw Special attention to the fact that the material surround- ing the inner ohain c? metallic substances is impregnated with a chemical solution, harmless In it&elf, an.l yet containing titanic [overs, 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 uaelesß artiole like so many of the so-called electric appliances, which cannot possibly produce any good results, as they are Incomplete In the moot eaeential requirements, and cannot generate galvanism nor produce galvanic effects. This Necklet la the outcome of a long-continued aeries of Investigating experiments by that well-known and eminent scientist and specialist, Dr AugUßte Kurstelner, who is the highest European authority on all diseases of women and children The Lancet, the leading medical journal of the world, Bays : — " The fact that the discovery and Invention of these Necklets is announced by Dr Knrsteiner iB a sufficient guarantee that a meanß has at last been diecovered which will save the lives of oalUlona of children, and relieve the anxiety of many mothers. ' Although new to New Zealand, these Necklets have been nsed for the last five years with the moat Wonderful Succcbs m England, on the Continent, and m the United States, and are now constantly prescribed by the most eminent physicians In their daily practice. It is needless to comment on the anxious and sleepless nights passed by thousands of mothers during the painful period of the teething of infants. Every day brings to an untimely grave hundreds of lnfantß whoße lives might have been saved by the use of the simple Necklet. In addition to the relict from pain afforded by the Necklet during the period of dentition, by its nerve-giving force it wards off and prevents Measles, Whooping Cough, Soarlet Fever, Croup, and Chicken Pox, thus relieving childhood of its martyrdom, and gladdening the heart of every mother who invokes its aid, Dr Kurstelner has appointed Messrs CONBOD & CO., Auckland, his sole 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 cobl of importation, and la 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 1 a handsome ornament, and will be sent free on receipt of One Ponnd, by posta note, money order, or registered letter. No cheques received. Address— J. CONROD&CO., P.O. Box 408, Auckland, N.Z.

No Farmer valuing Clean tieed can aff to co without a EACINE FAN MILL. Practical Farmers h*vs pronounced it the Beßt— read TESTIMONIALS below. While it has capacity to Clean from 60 to 93 bushels per hoar. Ho. 1 FARM MILL Is 2ft Bin over all, and is furnished with one Wheat Hnrdle, one Whnat Screen and Grader with side spout, one Barley Sieve, and one Oat Sieve. Sieves for other purposes furnished and charged for as extra*. F. FEERIMAN. F- FEBRIMAtt would «all yonr attention • to thiß Improved Farm Fanning Mill which combines all the advantages of the various Milln now m ust, and also the follow- ing important and greatly needed Improve- ments : — First.— ln the width of the Mill, it being 1 wider than most Farm Mills of similar siz", thereby increasing the cleaning capacity to a large extent. Second. — The improved plan of hanging th shoe upon strong strap-hinged hangers, thn preventing constant breakage. Thibd.— ld themakterr f fastening the dram ha head to the po&te fej means of a castiron lorf circle, ond secured to the posts by screws (instead of wooden cleats morticed into posta and held by wooden keys), adding increased strength and durability to the Mill. Fourth.— The great advantage of raising or lowering the slide m the Hopper means of a screw. The irons Me of the most approved the wheel, pinion, and shake irons being strong. The gearing is all placed on the uk side of the mill, out of the way. The bearing is formed by the hub of the large wheel run- ningin a thimble or box, three inches long, of Chilled Iron and extending through the posts, giving it a steady and easy motion. For cleaning 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 use. The fan with wind boards are so ar- ranged that the wind strikes the hurdle m such a manner as to blow all fcul stuff and light j grain over the hurdle. The side spout delivers the No 1 fi Tain at the Bide, and the No 2 grain at the front of the Mill. The grader can be so adjusted as to separate and deliver through the side spont a greater or less portion of the best grain.- The wheat screens and grader are so arranged as to effectually take out c:ckle from No 1 and No 2 wheati No Farmer or Dealer should bo without one ob they are inraluable to all who wish to market their Beed m good condition, and thus eavf. the heavy deductions usually made for impurities and foul 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, soon repay the cost incurred m their purchase. To Farmers raising large quantities of Grain, or Seeds, we would recommend the No 2 Ware- house Mill, 88 specially adapted for their use, as the great saving of time will compensate for the difference m the firßt cost. They can be run by hand as easily aa a Farm Size, altho Jgh constructed much heavier, and made more durable. Be guided by experience of others and order a " Batine Mill." You d^n't want a better record than it has. Read. MADE A SPLENDID JOB. I put some bags of wheat through lost spring, they made a splendid job. A neighbor borrowed mine to run through some oaty wheat : he was highly pleased with the job they made. — William Blaf c, Hillfort WalWera NEV*tt SAW ITS EQdAL. I have only used the " Racine " Mill, as yet, for dressing oata, wheat, and grass seed. It has given me great satisfaction. I have never seen its equal for grading wheat for seed, and I hove seen and helped to work a good many. — Wiiliam Brook, Church Hill, Waiwera. COMPLIMENTARY". I am very much pleased with it,— JOHN ° AMK COI?LD K^ Avt A BETTER CHARACTER. I have given the " Racine " Warehouse Fan Mill a good trial, and it gives every sa'iaiac- ton. I consider it »» first-rate article. It cleans and grades grain rapidly and well, « strong, works smoothly, and will, I think, prov« durable. It is much fcperior to any other machine of the kind I have ever seen.— F. W . I have tried it with wheat, oatß, and turnip Beed. I can confidently say that it iB all that 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 behove it will dress m a superior manner any kind needs.— William Littlejohk, Waiwera WOULD I*OT LIKE TO WANT ONE NOW— NO ONE SR.OULD. I can confidently recommend the " Racine Fanners to do their work we 31 t and witK extreme facility. I would not by any mean 9 like to want one no*, and I think no farmer should —David Mackenzie, Waiwera.
