So, although there are countless Pills uood for diseases and olaiming much * as to their merit, the remarkable dls- I' oovery of Dr Haydook has eclipsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys- ■ tern. The Dootors, whose vast doses of four or five pills enfeeble the stomaoh I' and paralyse the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite •»' with one or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay. ■ dock's New Liver Pills suffices to plaoe the stomach m perfect order oreates an l " appotite, and renders the spirit light and ■ bnoyant.

THE following Certificate has been received by Mr S, Slesinger, Vcftfinaty 1 Shrgeon : — " Wellington City Tramways, , " Wellington, 23rd Mfey, 1887. 1 "MR Samuel Slksingbr, V.STi 1 Dunedin. P «'DearStr,— l have, as you are dodbtleis 1. awarej used your Horse Medicines for the last three or four years, and have found tbem Very valuable. In my opinion your Colld Drirtks, Worm Powders, and Hoof Oil flmnot be surpassed. " I have great pleasure m recommending D your medicines to all horse proprietors. "Enclosed please find order for iS dozen * assorted medicines. 1 "lam, dear sir, " Yours faithfully, :"S. Smith, Manager." * F. FERRIMAN, AGENT. I EVERY MAN CAN BE HIS OWN j HORSE DOCTOR, 5 By using SLESINGER'S PREPARATIONS, s As detailed below. FOR HORSES t THE Colic or Gripe Drink.— Horses are very liable to Colic or Gripe, and, If, . egloeted, this complaint may m a few hours erminate m inflammation, stranjjubtioß, vympanitis, and death. This Colic Draught will give relief m less than two hours, and often within ten minutes. The Embrocation.— For the treatment ol Cuts, Wounds, Braises from Saddle, Girths, or Harness, Sore Shoulders, Strains, Spr?ina, Rheumatism, Windgalls, Swellings, etc. If cither of these injuries or complaints be ne- glected for a few hours, they may take weeks to cure. The Condition Powders.— For restoring aad keeping the Horse ia good health, relieving Hide-bound, Surfeit, Mange, Grease, And Skin Eruptions, correcting a diseased state of ! the Stomach, Bowels, Kidney*, Bladder, Liver, e'c. The Worm Powders.— The Horse is veiy subject to Worms, frequently unsuspected %y the owner. Thousands of Horses die for the want of these Powders, and tbe owner Js none the wi9cr for it ; and, unless a post mortem examination is ma c, does not know that his Horse suffered from these reptiles. On all occasions, wheu the animal Is poor, In low condition, hide-bound, or occasionally paseiag a worm, give one of taesc Tow !ers night and morning, as directed on each tin. The Blister Oln'mcnt is superior to any ) other. After uAu^ ii, he h;iir 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 inflammation of the Foot, and bring on other disoases, such as inflammation of the Bowels, Kidneys, Lungs, These Oils, if used m time, will prevent or cure brittle Hoofs, Sundcracks, Contrac- tion, Quittor, Canker. Corns, Thrush rr Frush, Narrow Heels, Hoof-bouud, Navicular Joint Disease, etc., all of which the hone is subject to, and is liable to fall and endanger the life of his rider. This may be avoided by j usine this Oil d*ily, or two or three times a week. The Grease Ointment.— For flic core of Grease, Crown Scabs, Rat-tall, Mallenders and Sallendcrs, 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 aay other Inflammatory Diseases of the Skin m the Horse or Dog, It may be mixed with four times its quantity of Nefctafoot Oil, being eas'er of application. By keeping a supply on hand, which Cbsts but very' U'e, you cm cure your Horsbs yourself iv tl nout the aid of a Veterinary Sur- geon. N.B.— Age does not affect the strength or -uahty of either medicine. «3"A11 Ac medicines are sold by F. FERRIMAN, EAST STREET, ASHBURTON, Sole Ageut. SLESINGER'S Rheumatic Balsam. THE greatest discovery ever yet made for the relief of human sufferers from Mus- cular or Nervous Affec ion is SLESINGER'S RHEUMATIC BALSAM. Of all the advertised remedies and all the prescriptions from the medical faculty for the cure of Rheumatism, Rheumatic GOut, Scia- tica, Tic Douloureux, Neuralgia, Lumbagg, Strains or Sprains, Chilblains;, or pains of Any sort from the above affections, none have been so successful and effectual a* aLESINGER'S RHEUMATIC BALSAM. And why ? yon will aslr. 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 other day; or to use hot, cold, shower, or Turkish Balhi ; or to take or avoid this, that, or the other food ; or la drink oidy such and such fluid, and not to drink anything else; or to l-kc such and such exercise, etc., etc. No ! SLr..s.Nr.F.it's. RheVmatxc Balsam Isequires no such stipulation 1 Eat and drink accorJincj to your own good sen c, and if you only use the Balsam as directed on each bottle, m one day, an! even iv less lime, or -ifter one or two application?', you are relieved ( from your pain and sufferings, and you will Mess the invent r of the Balsam. Farthcrraove, you are not asked to repeat the dose, that is to say, to tuy another bottle or another box of pills. No 1 nothing of the sort is wnnted. One bottle, although small m appearance, but large m its cflcct, is qu : le sufficient m the worst of cases, and often rrom 20 to 100 drops, according to the surface of the complaint, is sufficient for a cure.

Dear Sir,- I have much pleasure m report* mgto.you thai, after having used your Rhaj. matic Balsam m cases of Neuralgia, Acute, and Chronic Rheumatics, 1 have found it really a useful remedy. I have, therefore, no hesitation m recora- t mending- the same for the above-mentioned cases. — Yours, etc., C. N. Reimek, Surgeon. f* FJSRRIMAN,
