' • - • *' ■■" ; Dr Auguste I Kur steiner's ELECTRO GALYAWC lEETHIM NECKLET, ;; Endorsed by the Medical Faculty of Europe, I And pronounced by all I 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 to the fact that the material surround- ing the irjner chain of metallic substances is impregnated with a chemical solution, harmless In it&elf, and yet containing titanic r. overs, which generate a continuous light enrrent of galvanism, and the Necklet In donscquence contains ail the virtues of a miniature battory, and is therefore not a useless artiole like an many of the no-called olectrio appliances, which canpot possibly produce any good results, ns they are Incomplete m the most essential requirements, and cannot generate galvanism nor produce galvanic effects. This Necklet is the outcome of a 'long-continued series of investigating experiments by that well-known, and eminent scientist and specialist) Dr Aogaeta Kurstelner, who is the highest European authority on all diseases of women and children , ■...".. The Lanokt, the leading medical journal of the world, says :— ••' The fact that the discovery and Invention of these iNockletais announced by Dr Kurstelner is a sufficient guarantee that a means has at lest 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 Succeaa m! England, on the Continent, and m the United States, and are now constantly prescribed by the moat eminent physicians In their daily practice. It is needless to comment on the anxlonß and sleepless nights parsed 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. In addition to the relief from pain afforded by the Necklet during the period of dentitlou, by its nerve-giving force It wards off and prevents Measles, Whoopinp Cough, Scarlet Fever, Croup, and Chicken Pox, thus relieving childhood of its martyrdom, and gladdening the heart of every mother who Invokes Us aid. Dr Kursteiner haß appointed Messrs CONROD & CO., Auckland, his sole agents m New Zealand for the sale of theee Necklets, from' ffhom only they can be obtained. The price has been placed at the very lowest poßßible point, point, barely covering the cost of importation, and is within the reach of all, at one Necklet will last a life time. Aside from its many virtues as a remedial and preventive agent, the Necklet i a handsome ornament, and will be sent free on receipt of One Pound, by post* 1 note, money order, or registered letter.
