Dr Auguste Kurpteiner's ELECTRO GALVANIC TEETHING NECKLET; Endorsed by the Medical. Faculty of Europe, And pronounced 'by si , ; Leading Physicians The Greatest Discovery of the Age IN placing the Electric Neoklet before the Naw Zealand pnblio the discoverer and proprietor begs to draw Special attention to the fact that the material Burronrid- 1 ing the inner chain of metallic substances is Impregnated with a obemioal solution, I harmless m itself, and yet containing tltanio powers, which generate a continuous I Hght current of galvanism, and the Neoklet inconsequence contains ail the vlrtuei of a miniature battery, and is therefore not a useless article like bo many of the so-oedled eleotrio appliances, which cannot possibly produce any good results, as they are incomplete m the most essential requirements, and ' cannot generate galvanism nor prodnoe galvanlo effects. \ This Neoklet Is the outcome of a long-continued series of Investigating 1 experiments by that well-known and eminent scientist and specialist, Dr A.aguste Kurstelner, who is the highest European authority on all diseases of women and children The Lanoet, the leading medical journal of the world, says :— " The f«ot that the discovery and Invention of these Meckleta Is announced by Dr Kurateiner is a sufficient guarantee that a meanß has at last, 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 nooßt Wonderful Success m England, on the Continent, and m the ' United States, and are now constantly prescribed by the moat eminent physicians m their daily practice. It is needless- to comment on the anxlouß^ and sleepless nights passed by thousands of mothers during the painful peripd 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. -1 In^addition to the rje|ietJEi*>»*~pain afforded by the Neoklet during. the period of dentitioa, by its nerve-glvi-g force it wards off and prevents Measles, Whooping Cough, Scat'et Fever, Cronp, and Ohicien Pox, thus relieving childhood of itjs ~ martyrdom, and gladdening the heart of every mother who Invokes its aid* Dr Kurateiner haß appointed Messrs CONROD & CO., Auckland, bis sole - agents m New Zealand for the sale of these Necklets, from ffhom only ■ they can be obtained. The price has been placed at the very lowest possible point, point, barely covering the cob I of importation, and is within the reach of all, as one Neoklet 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 poata note, money order, or registered letter.
