ANIINEXPRESSIBLE BOON TO MOTHERS. Dr Auguste Kureteiner's jELECTW) GALVANIC TEETHING NECKLETV J Endorsed by the Medical Faculty of Europe, And pionoanced by al Leading Physicians The Greatest Discovery of tlie Age IN placing the Electrfo Necklet before the New Zealand public the discoverer and proprietor bege to draw Speoial attention to the fact that the material surround- ing the inner chain cf metallic Bobstanceß is Impregnated with a cbemloal solution, harmles* In Itself, sn^ yet containing tltanio (overs, whloh generate a continuous light enrreot of galvanism, and the Necklet m consequence contains all the virtues of a miniature battery , and to therefore not a ueeleßß article like bo many of the so-called electric appliances, which cannot possibly produce any good results, as they are incomplete m the most eseential requirements, and cannot generate galvanism nor produce galvanio effects. This Neoklet is the outcome of a long-continued series of Investigating expftrimenti by that well-known and eminent Bolentist and specialist Dr Anguete Eursteiner, who is the hlgheßt European authority on all diseases of women and children Tho Lanoot, the leading medical journal of the world, says :~ JI The fsofc that the discovery and Invention of these Neckletß la announced by Dr Kurateiner Is a sufficient guarantee that a means has at* last been discovered whloh will save the _ lives of millions of children, and relieve the anxiety of many mothers. ' Although new to New Zealand, these Neoklets 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 most eminent physicians In their daily praotice. , It Is needless to comment on the anxious and sleepless nights pawed by thousands of mothers during tho 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 pals afforded by the Necklet during the period of dentition, by Its nerve giving force it wards off and prevents Measles, Whooping Cough, Scarlet Fever, Croup, and Chloken Pox, thus relieving childhood of Its martyrdom, and gladdening the heart of every mother who Invokes its aid, Dr Karitolner hti appointed Messrs CONROD & CO., Auckland, his sole agents in ' New Zealand for the sale of these Necklets, from whom only \ they can be obtained. The price has been placed at the very lowest possible point, I point, barely covering the cost of Importation, and is within the reach of all, as one ' Necklet will last a life time. Aside from Its many virtues as a remedial and preventive agent, the Necklet- •> handsome ornament, and will be sent free on receipt of One Pound, by pst*o note, money order, 01 registered letter. No cheques received. Address- J. OONROD A CO., P.O. Box 408. Auckland, N.Z. P. and Bo Duncan, AGBICULTUBAL IMPLEMENT MANUFACTTJEEBS, Chbistchobch and Ashbubton.
