AN INEXPRESSIBLE BOON TO MOTHERS, Dr Auguste KursteinerV ELECTRO GALVANIC TEETHING NECKLET ; Endorsed by the Medical Faculty of Europe, And pronounced by al Leading Phyalciana The Greatest Discovery of the Age IN placing the Electric Neoklet before the New Zealand public the discoverer and proprietor begs to draw Special attention to the fact that the material surround- ing the inner chain of metallic substances is impregnated with a. chemical solution, harmless m itself, and yet containing titanic (overs, which generate a oontinuons light current of galvanism, and the Neoklet m consequence contains ail the virtue! of a miniature battery, and Is therefore not a useless article like so many of the so-called electric appliances, which cannot possibly produce any good results, as they are | incomplete m the most essential requirements, and cannot generate galvanism nor produce galvanlo effeots. This Neoklet Is the outootne of a long-continued Berles of Investigating experiments by that well-known and eminent scientist and specialist, Dr Aoguete Kurstelner, who is the highest Europesn authority on all diseases of women and children The Lanoet, the leading medical journal of the world, says : — " The fact that the discovery and Invention of these Necklets 1b announced by Dr Kurstelner Is a sufficient guarantee that a means has at laßt 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 Success m England, on the Continent, and In the United States, and are now constantly prescribed by the moat eminent physicians In their daily praotice. ■' ' i It is needless to comment on the anxious and sleepless nights passed by thonaands of mothers during the painful period of the teething of Infants. Every day brings to an untimely grave hundreds of Infanta whose lives might have been saved by thejise of the simple Necklet. In addition to the relief from pain afforded by the Necklet during the period of dentition, by its nerve-givng force it wards off and prevents Measles; Whooping Cough, Scarlet Fever, Croup, and Chicken Pox, thus relieving ohlldhood of Its martyrdom, and gladdening the heart of every mother who invokes its aid, Dr Kurßteiner has appointed 'Messrs CONROD & CO., Auckland, his sole agents m New Zealand for the sale of these Necklets, from ffhom only they can be obtained. The price has been placed at th 6 very lowest possible point, point, bsrely covei-log the coßt of importation, and Is within the reach of ail, an one Necklet will last a life time. Aside from its many virtues as a remedial and preventive agent, the Neoklet 1 a handsome ornament, and will be sent free on receipt of One Pound, by posta note, money order, or registered letter. No ohequeß received. Address— J. OONROD&CO., P.O. Box 408, Auokland, N.Z. DIPPING S3BASON, 1887.

No Farmer valuing Clean rieed can aff to po without a EACINE FAN MILL. Practical Farmers have pronounced it the Best—read TEBTIMONXALB below. While it has capacity to Clean from 60 to 90 bushels per hour. No. 1 FARM MILL Is 2ft Bin over all, and is furnished with one Wheat Hurdle, one Wheat Bcieen and Grader with aide epout, one Barley Sieve, and one Oat Sieve. Sieves for other purposes furnished and charged for as extras. F. FEERIMAN; TTI FBEBIMAH would call year attention fi to tbls Improved Farm Fanning Mill whicii combines all the advantages of the variouß Mills now m use, and also tbe follow- ing important and greatly needed Improve* ments : — Fibbt.— ln the width of the Mill, it being wider than most Farm Mills of similar bizp, thereby increasing the cleaning capacity to a large extent. bBCOND. — The improved plan of hanging th shoe upon itrong Btrap-hinged hangars." thu preventing con stunt breakage. Third.— ld the maitorft fastening the drum or head to the potta kj means of a castiron half circle, and eeenred to the posts by screws (instead of wooden cleats morticed into posts and held by wooden keys), adding increased strength and durability to the Mill. Foueth. — The great advantage of raising or lowering the slide m the Hopper means of a screw. , The irons Me of the most approved the wheel, pinion, and shake irons being Btrong. Tne gearing is all placed on the m% side of the mill, out of the way. The bearing is formed by the hub of the large wheel ran- ning m a thimble or box, three inches long, of Chilled Iron and extending through the poets, giving it a steady and easy motion. For cleaning and separating all kinds of grain, we guarantee thie Mill to be otjaal to, and m fact superior, m all respects, to any now m use. The fan with wind boards are so ar- ranged that the wind itrikes the hnrdle m snch a manner aa to blow all foul stnfiE and light grain over the hurdle. The Bide spont delivers the No 1 train at the side, and the No 2 grain at the front of the Mill. The grader can be so adjusted as to separate and deliver through the aide spont a greater or leeß portion of the best grain; The wheat screens and grader ar&so arranged as to effectually take out ccckle from No 1 and No 2 whsati No Farmer or Dealer ehonld ba without one 8B they are inraluable to all who wish to market their seed m good condition, and thus save the heavy deductions usually made tor impuritieß and foul stuff, and also the extra freight charges and cost of cleaning. They also save time, and by the thorough and com- plete work which can be accomplished with them, Boon repay the coat incurred m their purchase. To Farmers raising large qaantvtiCß of Qra\n, or Eeerfß, we would recommend the No 2 Ware* home Mil), as specially adapted for their usa, as the great saving of time will compeneate for the difference m the firßt cost They can be ran by hand as easily aa a Farm Size, althoogh constructed much heavier, and made moie durable. Be guided by experience of others and order a v Bacine Mill. " You d<m't want a better record than it has. Bead. MADE A SPLENDID JOB. X put some bags of wheat through last spring, they made a splendid job. A neighbor borrowed mine to run through some oat; wheat: be was highly pleased with the job they 7 made. — William Blak e, Hillfort Waiwera. NEVER SAW ITS EQOAL. I have only used the " Eacine " Mill, as yet, for dressing oats, wheat, and grass seed. It has given mo great satisfaction. I have never seen its equal for grading wheat for Beed, and I have seen and helped te work a good many. —Wiiliam BnooK, Church Hill. Waiwera, COMPLIMENTARY. I am very much pleased with it,— JOHN Oambrok, Swift Creek, Kelso. COULD NOT BAVK A BETTER CHARACTER. I have given the '• Eacine " Warehouse Fan Mill a good trial, and it giveß every sa'ißlac- t : on. I consider it *■ first-rate article. It eleanß and grades grain rapidly and well, is Btrong, works smoothly, and will, 1 think, proye durable. It ia much Krperior to any other machine of the kind I have ever seen, — F. W. Mackenzie (the Captain). Pomahaka. j BEST MACHINE OF THE KIND I HAVE EVER SEEN. ! I have tried it with wheat, oatß, and turnip eeed . I can confidently say that it is all that it claims to be. In fact, it is a long way the best machine of the kind I have ever Been. With a larger assortment of riddles, I believe it will dress m a superior manner any kind eeeds. — "William Littlejohk, Waiwera WOULD 1»OT LIKK TO WANT ONE NOW— ISO ONE SHOULD. I can confidently recommend the " Racine Fanners t« do their work well, and witK extreme facility. I would not by any mean* like to want one now, and I thiak no farmer should —David Mackenzie, Waiwera.
