The reseon of thiß de- mand Is because we find m Haydook' New Livor Pills a wonderful and extrk ordinary combination of conoentrated medioine. The Victories of Soienoe — Electric Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet- ter. So, although there are countless Pills used for dloeaaun and claiming much as to their merit, the remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys- tem. The Dootoici, whose vast doeeß of fothr or five pills enfeeble the stomach and paralyie the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with ottt) or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay- dock'B New Liver Pills suffices to plaoe the stomach m perfect order oreateß an ' appetite, and renders the aplrlt light and buoyant. If the Liver Is affected its f unc- tions are restored, and if tho Nervout System is, enfeebled, it is invigorated and sustained.' TRANSLATION. Aykab, Provin ce of Burmah, 8.1.

F. FEEEIMAN, AGENT. IMPORTANT TO HORSE PRO- PRIETORS. 'T'HE following Certificate has been rec&ived i. by Mr S, Slesinger, Veterinary Surgeon : — " Wellington City Tramways, " Wellington, 23rd May, 1887. "Mr Samuel Slesinger, V.S:, Dunedin. " Dear Sir, — I bave, as you are doubtless aware, used your Horse Medicines for the last three or four years, and have found them very valuable In my opinion your Colic Drinks, Worm Powders, and Hoof Oil cannot be surpassed. " I have great pleasure m recommending your medicines to all horse proprietors. " Enclosed please find order for 18 dozen assorted medicines. " 1 am, dear sir, " Yours faithfully, '." S. Smith, Manager." F. FERttIMAN, AGENT. EVERY MAN CAN BE HIS OWN HORSE DOCTOR, By using SLESINGER'S PREPARATIONS, As detailed below. FOR HORSES : '"PHE Colic or Gripe Drink. — Horses are A very liable to Colic or Gripe, and, if, eglected, this complaint may m a few hours erminate m inflammation, slrarujuls>tion, vympaniiis, and death. This Colic Draught will give relief m less than two houre, and often within ten minutes. The Embrocation.— For the treatment oi Cut?, Wounds, Bruises from Saddle, Girths, or Harness, Sore Shoulders, Strains, Sprpins, Rheumatism, Windgalls, Swellings, etc If eiiher of these injuries or complaints be ne- glected for a few hours, they may take weeks to cure. The Condition Powders. — For restoring and keeping the Horse m §ood health, relieving Hi. e-bound, Surfeit, Mange, Grease, And Skin Eruptions, correcting a diseased state of the Stomach, Bowels, Kidney*, Bladder, Liver, c"c. The Worm Powders. — The Horse is very subject to Worms, frequently unsuspected by the owner. Thousands of Horses- die for tke want of these Powders, and the owner is none j .he wiser for it ; and, unless .1 post mortem 1 examination is ma c, does not know that his Horse suffered from these reptiles. On all I occasions, wheu the animal is poor, m low i condition, hide-bound, or occasionally passing { a worm, give one of tnese Pow -ers night and morning, as directed on each tin. The User Oin'ment is superior to any other. Alter using it, he hair returns to its natural color, and, unlike any other, no blemish is left. The Hoof Oils.— The chief cause of Lame- ness m Horses is some injury or defect m the Foot, which may cause n flammation of the Foot, and bring on other diseases, such as inflammation of the Bowels, Kidneys, Lungs, These Oils, if used m time, w.U prevent or cure brittle Hoofs, Sandcracks, Contrac- tion, Quittor, Caiker. Corns, Thrush cr Frush, Narrow Heels, Hoof-bound, Navicular Joint Disease, etc., all of which the hor.e is subject to, and is liable to fall and endanger the life of his rider. This may be avoided by using this Oil daily, or two or three times a jj^eek. The Grease Ointment. — For the cure of Grease, Crown Scabs, Rat-tail, Mallenders and Sallenders, or any Skin Eruption. DOG MEDICINES : The Distemper Powders are a Perfect Cure, and may also be given m other ailments. The Mange Ointments. — May be used for j the Mange or any other Inflammatory Diseases of the S.''in m the Horse or Dog. It may be mixed with four times its quantity of Neatsfoot Oil, being eas er of application. By keeping a supply on hand, which costs ! but very 1 'tt:e, you cm cure your Horses yourself w .tnout the aid of a Veterinary Sur- geon. N.B. — Age does not affect the strength or quality of cither medicine. «3"A11 the medicines are sold by F. FEEEIMAN, EAST STREET, ASHBURTON, Sole Agent. SLESINGEKS Rheumatic Balsam. *"PHE greatest discovery ever yet made for A the relief o! human sufferers from Mus- cular or Nervous Affec ion is SLESINGER'S RHEUMATIC BALSAM. | °f all the advertised remedies and all the prescriptions from the medical faculty for the cure of Rheumatism, Rheumatic Gout, Scia- tica, Tic Douloureux, Neuralgia, Lumbigo, Strains or Sprains, Chilblains, or pains of any son from the above affections, none have been so successful and effectual as aLESINGER'S RHEUMATIC BALSAM. And why? you will asV. Because there is no nonsense about it. You are not asked to swallow so many pills or so many spoonfuls of mixture or draughts, 2, 3, or 4 times a day, or every ether day ; or to use hot, cold, shower, or Turkish Bathe ; or to take or avoid this, that, or the other food ; f or to drink only such and such fluid, and not to drink anything else ; or to tkc such and such exercise, etc., etc. No ! Slksinger's Riik'umatic Balsam Jequircs no such stipulation ! Eat and drink accor. ing to your own good sen c, and if you only use the Balsam as directed on each boitle, m one day, an i. even- m less time, or after one or two app'icHfonf, you are relieved from your pain and sufferings, and you will bless the invent r of the Balsam. Furthermore, you are not asked to repeat the dose, that is to say, to tuy another bottle or another box of pills. No I nothing of the sort is wanted. One bottle, although small m appearance, but large m its efiect, is qu : te sufficient m the worst of case?, and often rrom 20 to 100 drops, according to the surface of the complaint, is sufficient for a cure. CERTIFICATE. Moray Place. Dunedin, Mr Slesingei, V.S., Hope Street. Dear Sir,- T have much pleasure m report- ing to you that, after having used your Rheu- matic Balsam m cases of Neuralgia, Acute, and Chronic Rheumatics, I have found it really a useful remedy. , I have, therefore, no hesitation m recom- mending the same for the above-mentioned cases. — Yours, etc., C.
