F. FERRIMAN, ___ AGENT. I IMPORTANT TO HORSE PRCN PRIETOR& *T*HB following Certificate has been received 1 by Mr S, Skslngcr, Veterinary Surgeon s — " Wellington City Tramways " Wellington, 33rd May, 1887. "Mr Samuel Slesingbr, V.Sv* Dunedin. *'Dear Sir, — I have, as you are doubtless aware, used your Horse Medicines for the last three or four years, and hare found them Tcry valuable. la my opinion your Colte Drinks, Worm Powders, aud Hoof Oil canaot be surpassed. " I have great pleasure m recomaeoding your medicines to all horse proprietors. "Enclosed please find order for 18 dozen assorted medicines. " I am, dear sir, " Yours faithfully, ;•' S. Smith, Manage*." F. FERRIMAN, AGBNT. I j EVERY MAN CAN BB HIS OWN HORSE DOCTOR, By using SLESINGER'S PREPARATIONS* As detailed below. FOR HORSES: ♦T*HE Colic or Gripe Drink.— Horses are i. very liable to Colic or Gripe, and, if eglected, this complaint may m a few hours erminate m inflammation, strangulation, k ympanitis, and death. This Colic Draught will give relief m less than two hoars, and often within ten minutes. The Embrocation, — For the treatment of Cuts, Wounds, Bruises from Saddle, Girths, or Harness, Sore Shoulders, Strains, Spr?ins, Rheumatism, Windgalls, Swellings, etc. If either 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 good health, relieving Hide-bound, Surfeit, Mange, Grease, and Skin Eruptions, correcting a diseased state of the Stomach, Bowels, Kidneys, Bladder, Liver, e!c. The Worm Powders.— -The Horse is very subject to Worms, frequently unsuspected b the owner. Thousands of Horses die for the want of these Powders, and the owner is none She wiser for it j and, unless a pose mortem examination is made, does not know that his Horse suffered from these reptiles. On all occasions, when the animal is poor, m low condition, hide-bound, or occasionally passing a worm, give one of tnese Powders night and morning, . .-, J rected on each tin. The Blister Ointment is superior to any other. After using it, he hair returns to ita 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 inflammation of the Foot, and bring on other diseases, such as inflammation of the Bowels, Kidneys, Lungs, These Oils, if used m time, will prevent or cure brittle Hoofs, Sandcracks, Contrac* tion, Quittor, Canker, Corns, Thrush cr Frush, Narrow Heels, Hoof-bound, Navicular Joint Disease, etc., all of which the horse is subject to, and is liable to fall and endanger the life of his rider. This may be avoided by using this Oil doily, or two or three times a week. 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 the Mange or any other Inflammatory Diseases of the Skin m the Horse or Dog, It may be mixed with four times its quantity of Neatsfoot Oil, being eas'cr of application. By keeping a supply on hand, which ctosti but very r ' Ule, you cto cure your Horses yourself v, .inout the aid of a Veterinary Su*. peon. N.B.— Age does not affect the strength or quality of either medicine, 40" All the medicines are sold by F. FERRIMAN, EAST STREET, ASHBURTON, Sole Agent, SLESINGER'S Rheumatic Balsam. *T*HE greatest discovery ever yet made for A the relief of human sufferers from Mus* cular or Nervous Affeciion is SLESINGER'S RHEUMATIC BALSAM. Of all the advertised remedies and all the prescriptions from the medical faculty for the cure of Rheumatism, Rheumttic Gout, Scia- tica, Tic Douloureux, Neuralgia, Lumbago, Strains or Sprains, Chilblains, or pains of any sort from the above affections, none have been so successful and effectual as sLESINGER'S RHEUMATIC BALSAM. And why? you will aslt. 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 Baths ; or to take or avoid this, that, or the other food ; or to drink only such and such fluid, and not to drink anything else ; or to tike such and such exercise, etc. etc. No ! SLESINGER'S RHEUMATIC BALSAM Jequires no such stipulation ! Eat and drink according to your own good sen c, and if ycu only use the Balsam as directed on each bottle, m one day, and even m less time, or after one or two applications, 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 buy another bottle or another box of pills. No ! nothing of the sort is wanted. One bottle, although small m appearance, but large m its effect, is qu'te sufficient m the worst of case 3, and often rrom 20 to 100 drops, according to the surface of the complaint, is sufficient for a cure. CERTIFICATE. , Moray Place. Dunedin. Mr Slesinger, V.S., Hope Street. Dear Sir,- I have much pleasure m report, mg to you thai, after having used your Rheu. nmtic Balsam m cases of Neuralgia, Acute and Chronic Rheumatics, 1 have found it really a useful remedy. I have, therefore, no hesitation m recom. t mending the same for the above-mentioned cases. — Yours, etc., C. N. Reimer, Surgeon, F, FERRIMAtt AGENT
