Dr Auguste Kureteiner'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 the Electric Necklet before the New Zealand pnblio the discoverer and proprietor begs to draw Special attention io the fact that the material surround- ing the inner chain of metallic substances is impregnated with a chemical solution, harmless m itself, and yet containing titanic rowera, which generate a continuous light current of galvanism, and the Necklet m consequence contains ail the vlrtuoi of a miniature battery, and ia therefore not a useless article like an many of the so-called electric appliances, which cannot possibly produce any good results, as they are incomplete m the moat essential requirement!?, and cannot generate galvanism nor produce galvanic effects. This Necklet ia the outcome of a long-continued aeries of investigating experiments by that well-known and eminent scientist and specialist; Dr AugUßte Kursteiner, who is the highest European authority on all diseases of women and children The Lancet, the leading medical journal of the world, saya : — " The fact that tho discovery and Invention of these Necklets is announced by Dr Kursteiner is a sufficient guarantee that a moans has at last been discovered which will save the lives of millions of ohildren, and relieve the anxiety of many mothers." Although new to New Zealand, these Necklets have been used for the last five years with tho roost Wonderful Success m England, on tho-Continont, and m the United States, and are now constantly prescribed by the raoet eminent physicians m their daily practice. It is needleßß to comment on the anxious and Bleeploaa nights papsod by thoueanda of mothers during the gainful period of the teething of infanta. Every day brings to an untimely grave hundreds of infanta whoso Hvbb might have been saved by the use of the Bimple Necklet. In addition to the relief from pa?n afforded by tho Necklet during the period of dentitiou, by its nerve-glvrg force it wards off and prevents Measles, Whooping Oough, Scarlet Fever, Croup, and Chicken Pox, thus relieving ohildhood of its martyrdom, and gladdening t/ 4 e heart of every mother who invokes its aid, Dr Kursteiner has appointed Meaßra CONROD & CO., Auckland, hiß sole agents m New Zealand for the sale of theeo Neokletß, from *horn only they can be obtained. The price has been placed at the very lowest possible point, point, barely covering the coat of importation, and is within the reach of all, as one Necklet will last a life time. Aside from its many virtues aa a remedial and preventive agent, the Necklet 1 i a handaome ornament, and will bo Bent free on receipt of One Pound, by posU note, money order, or registered letter.
