Note the Address — FURNITURE MANUFACTORY, EAST STREET SOUTH, ASHBUBTOff. 6^_ AN INEXPRESSIBLE BOON TO MOTHERS, Dr Auguste Kursteiner's ELECTRO GALYAWC 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 begs to draw Special attention to the fact that the material surronnd- ing the Inner chain of metallic substances la Impregnated with a chemical solution, harmless m itself, and yet containing titanic powerß, which generate a continuous light enrrent of galvanism, and the Necklet m consequence contains ail the vlrtuea of a miniature battery, and is therefore not a useless article like so many of the so-called electrlo appliances, which cannot possibly produce any good results, as they are incomplete m the moßt essential requirements, and cannot generate galvanism nor produce galvanlo effecta. . ' This Neoklot Is the outcome of a long-continued series of Investigating experiments by that well-known and eminent scientist and specialist, Dr Augusta Kutstelner, who Is the highest Europesn authority on all diseases of women and children ■ . The Lanobt, the leading medical journal of the world, says :— " The f«ot that the discovery and Invention of iheße Necklets is announced by Dr Kurstelner is a sufficient guarantee that a means has at last been discovered whioh will save the lives of millions of children, and relieve the anxiety of many mothers. ' j * . I Although new to New Zealand, these Necklets have been used for the last five ' years with the most Wonderful Success m England, on the Continent, and m the United States, and are now constantly prescribed by the most eminent physicians m their dally practice. It Is needless to comment on the anxious and sleepless nights pawed by thousands of mothers duting 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 uae of the simple Necklet. In addition to the relief from pain afforded by the Necklet during the period of dentition, by its nerve-givhg force it wards off and prevents Measles, Whooping Cough, Scarlet Fever, Croup, and Chicken Pox, thuß relieving childhood of its martyrdom, and gladdening the heart of every mother who Invokes its aid, Dr Kurateiner has appointed Messrs CONROD & CO., Auckland, bis Hole agentß m ITew Zealand for the sale of these Necklets, from *horn only they can be obtained. The price has been placed at the very low.eßt possible point, point, barely covering the cost of importation, and is within the reach of all, an one Neoklet will ,ast a life time. . ABlde fr^m Its many virtues as a remedial and preventive agent, the Necklet 1 a handacm ■ uament, and will be Bent free on receipt of One Pound, by posts note, money order, or registered letter.
