Dr Auguste Kursteiner'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 pnbllo the discoverer and proprietor bogs to draw Speoial attention to the fact that the material onrronnd- ing the inner chain of metalllo Babatanceß is impregnated with a cbemioal solution, harmless In itself, ani yet containing titanio powers, wbloh generate a continuous light enrrent of galvanism, and the Neoklet m consequence contains ail the virtue* of 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, at they are incomplete m the most essential requirements, and cannot generate galvanism nor produce galvanic effects. . This Neoklet is the outcome of a long-continued series of investigating experiments by that well-known and eminent scientist and specialist, Dr Augußte Kuratelner, who is the highest Europesn authority on all diseases of women and children The Lanobt, the leading medical journal of the world, says : — •' The faot that the discovery and Invention of these Necklets is announced by Dr Knratelner Is a sufficient guarantee that a means has at last been discovered which will save the lives of millions of ohlldren, 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 In 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 needleis to comment on tha anzloua and sleepless nights paised by thousands of mothers during the painful period of the teething of infants. Every day brings to an untimely grave hundreds of infants whose lives might have been saved by the use of the simple Necklet. j In addition to the relief from pain afforded by the Necklet during the period of dentitiou, by its nerve glvhg force It wards off and prevents Measles, Whooping Cough, Scarlet Fever, Croup, and Chicken Fox, thus relieving childhood of Its martyrdom, and gladdening the heart of every mother who Invokes Us aid, D* Kurstelner hai appointed Messrs GONSOD & CO., Auckland, his solo agents In New Zealand lot the sale of those Necklets, from whom only they can be obtained. The price ban been placed at the very lowest possible point, point, barely ooverlnK the cost of importation, and Is within the reaoh of all, at one Necklet will last % life time. Ailde from Iti many vlrtoes v a remedial and preventive agent, the Necklet a handiotpe ornament, and will be tent free on receipt of One Pound, by pstao , note, money order, or regfetered letter.
