AN INEXPRESSIBLE BOON TO MOTHERS. Dr Auguste Kurpteiner's ELECTRO GALVANIC TEETHING NECKLET Endorsed by the Medical Faculty of Europe, And pronounced by al Leading Physicians The Greatest Discovery of the Age IN placing tho Eleotrio Neoklet before the New Zealand pnbllo the discoverer and proprietor begs to draw Special attention to the fact that the material surround- ing the inner chain of metallic subßtanceß 1b impregnated with a chemical solution, harmless m itself, an.l yet containing titanic powers, which generate a continuous light current of galvanism, and the Neoklet m consequence contains ail the virtues 61 a miniature battery, and is therefore not a useless article like bo many of the so-called 'eleotrio appliances, which cannot possibly produce any good results, as they are incomplete m the moat eßeentlal requirements, and cannot generate galvanism nor produoe gaivanio effeots. This Neoklet is the outcome of a long-continued . series of Investigating experiments by that well-known and eminent scientist and specialist, Di A agnate Kursteiner, who is the highest European authority on all diseases of women and children ? The Lanokt, the leading raedloal journal of the world, says : — " The feot that the discovery and invention of these Neokletß is announced by Dr Kursteiner is a sufficient guarantee that a means has at last been discovered which will save. 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 years with the most Wonderful Success m England, on the Continent, and m the tJnited States, and are now constantly prescribed by the moat eminent physicians m their dally practice. It is needless to comment on the anxious and sleepless nights passed by thousands of mother? during the painful period of the teething of lnfantß. Every day brings to an nntimely grave hundreds of infanta whosa lives might have been .saved by the use of the simple Necklet. In addition tn the relief from pain afforded by the Necklet during the period of dentitioo, by its nerve-^givrg force It ward» off and prevents Measles, Whooping Qough, Scarlet Fever, Croup, and Ohfokea Pox, thus reiieviug w»»ww o f itß . martyrdom j and gladdening the heart of every mother who Invokes its aid, ' i/r isursteirier »««^....^a ai OMra CONROD <fc CO., Auckland, his sole agents m New Zealand for the eaie of these Necklets, from ffhom only they can be obtained. The price haß 'been placed at the very lowest possible point, point, barely covering the cost of importation, and is within the reach of all, aa one Necklet will last a life time. Aside from itß many virtues as a remedial snd preventive agent, the Necklet i a handsome ornament, and will be sept free on receipt of One Pound, by posta note, money order, or registered letter. ; No ohecjuea received.

Second.— The improved plan of hanging th shoe upon strong strap-hinged hangers, thn preventing constant breakage. Thibd.— ld themakterf 1 fastening thedrnm ha head to the posts bj means of a caßtiron lorf circle, end ee cured to the posts by screws (instead of wooden cleats morticed into poets and held by wooden kSys), adding increased Btrength and durability to the Mill. Fourth. — The great advantage of raising or lowering the Blide m the Hopper means of a ecrew. ' The irons we of the mest approved the wheel, pinion, and shake irons being strong. The gearing is all placed on the in- side of the mill, ont of the way.
