' 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 United States, and are now constantly prescribed by the moat eminent physicians ln their dally practice. It 1b needless to comment on the aniiona and sleepless nights pawed by thousands of mothers during, the painfnl pertojd of tjta teething of Infants. Every day brings to an untimely grave hundreds of Infanta whose lives might have been saved by the use of the simple Neoklet. , • In addition to the relief from pafn afforded by the Neoklet during the period of dentition, by Its nerve-glvhg force it wards off and prevents Measles, Whooping Odugh, Soarlet Fever, Group, 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 CONROD & CO., Auckland, bis sole agents In New Zealand for the Dale of these Necklets, from whom only they oan be obtained. The price has been placed at the very lowest possible point, point, barely covering the cost of importation, and is within the reach of all, aa one Neoklet will last a life time.
