1 13 ( j r er s Notices AN INEXPRESSIBLE BOON TO MOTHERS, Dr Auguste Kureteiner's ELECTRO GALVANIC TEETHING NECKLET^ Endorsed by the Medical Faonlty of Enrope, And pronounced by al Leading Physlciana . 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 Burronnd- lng the inner ohain of metallic eubßtanceß is Impregnated with a chemical solution, harraleßß m itself, and yet containing titanic powers, which generate a continuous light oncrent of galvanism, and the Neoklet m consequence contains ail the virtues of a miniature battery, and Ib therefore not a ÜBeleaß nrtiole 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 gaivanlo effects. This Necklet is the otitcomo of a long-continued series of investigating experiments by that well-known and eminent scientist and specialist Dr Aoguste Kurstelner, who is iho higheot European authority on all diseases of women and children The Lanoet, tho leading medical journal of tho world, says : — " The faot that the discovery and invention of these Neckletß is announced by Dr Kurstelner is a sufficient guaranreo that a means 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, those Necklets have been used for the last five yearß with the roost Wonderful Success m England, on tho Continont, and m the United States, and aro now constantly prescribed by tho moet eminent physioiann In their daily practice. It is needless to comment on tho anxious and Bleeploss nights papsed by thousands of mothers during the painful period of the teething of Infants. Every day bringß to an untimely gravo hundreds of infants whose lives might have been Bayed by the use of tho simple Neoklet. - In addition to the relief from pain afforded by the Necklet during tho period of dentition, by its nerve-glvfrg forco it wardn oil and prevents Measles, "Whooping Cough, Scarlet Fever, Croup, and Ohicfcon Pox, thus relieving childhood of its martyrdom, and gladdoning the heart of every mother who Invokes Its aid, Dr Kursteinor has appointod Moserß CONHOD & CO., Auckland, his aole agents m New Zealand for the salo of theeo Necklets, from whom only they can be obtained. 'The price has been placed at tho very lowest possible point, point, barely covering tho cost of importation, and Is within the reach of all, aB one Necklet will last a life time. Aside from its many virtues as a remedial nnd preventive agent, the Necklet i a handsome ornament, and will bo sent free on receipt -of One Pound, by posia note, monoy order, or registered lotter. No cheques received. Addreeo-J. CONROD&CO., P.O. Box 408. Auoklaod, N.Z. DIPFING^SEASOnT 1887.

BACINE FAN FABM MILL, THE TESTED FARM MILL." Tho Cheapest nnd Beßt Fan Miv n£the Markets No Farmer valuing Clean Seed can '.afford tc go without a RACINE FAN MILL, Practical Farmers havo pronounced it the Beat—read TESTIMONIAL bolow. While it Las capacity to Glenn rom CO to 90 bushels per hour. No. i FARM MEL Is 2ft Bin over all, and m furnished with one Wheat Hurdle, one Wheat Bcreon and Grader with side spout, ono Barloy Sieve, and one Oat Sieve. Sievoß for other purpoßeß furnished and charged for ns extras. FERRIMAN< FFERRIMAN would call your ntten- • tion to this Improved Farm Fanning Mill, which combines all the advantages of tho variouß Mills now m use, and also tho following important and greatly neofiod Improve- ments :— First.— ln tho width of tho Mill, it being wider than most Farm Mills of similar Bize, thereby increasing tho cleaning capacity to a largo extent. fcEOOND.— The improved plan of hanging the Bhoe upon strong strap-hinged hangers, thus preventing constant breakage. Tinim— ln tho matter of fastening tho drum or head to tho poßts by means of a cast- iron half circle, and Becured to tho posts by screws (instead of wooden cleats morticed into posts ard held .. wooden keys), adding increased strength and dv ability to tho Mill. Fourth. — Tho great au 'antago of easily rafßing or lowering tho slide ; <ihe Hoppur by means of a screw. Tho irons aro of tho most approved pattern, the wheel, pinion, nnd shako irons being extra strong The gearing is nil placod on tho inßide of tho Mill, out of the way. Tho boo ring is formed by the hub of tho largo wheel running m a thimble or box, three inches lonor, of Chilled Iron, and extending through the posts, giving it a steady and oany motion. For cleaning and separating nil kinds of grain, wo guarantee this Mill to be equal to, and m fact superior, m all respects, to ony now m use. Tho fan witfi wind boards are so arranged that tho wind strikes tho hurdle m such a manner as to blow all foul stuff and light grain over the hurdle. The side spout delivers tho No 1 grain at the side, and tho No 2 grain at tho front of tho Mill. Tho grader cr.n bo so adjusted as to separate and deliver through tho side Bpour. a greater or less portion of tho best grain. Tho wheat screens and grader are so arranged as to effectually take out cockle from No 1 and No 2 wheat. No Farmer or Dealer should be without one as they aro invalunblo to all who wish to market thei- seed m good condition, and thus save the heavy deductions usually mado for impurities and foul stuff, and nleo the extra freight chnrgca and ccat of cleaning. They nlso save time, and by the thorough and complete work which enn be accomplished with them, soon repay the cost incurred m their purchase. j To Faraeis raiEing largu quantities of 1 Grain, or Seeds, wo -would recommend tho No 2 Warehouse Mill, ns specially adopted for their nso, aB the great saving of timo wll l compensate for tho difference m tho Hist cost, They ccn bo *nn by baud as easily ns a Farm fr izo, although constructed much heavier, and made moro durable. Jio ga'ded by tbo experience of othoro and order a "Racine"Mill." You doi.'t want a bettor record tbnn it has. Hond. MADE A SPLENDID JOB. I put Bomo bags cf wheat through last spring , they mado a splendid job. A neigh- bonr borrowed mine to run through Bomo oaty wheat: ho wnß highly plcaard with tho job they made. — William Blakib, Hillfoot, Waiwem. NEVER SAW ITS EQUAL; I have only used the " Bacine " Mill, ns yet, for dressing oats, wheat, and grass seed . It has given mo great satisfaction. I havo never Hoen its equal for grading wheat for seed, and I havo seen and helped to work a good many. —William Brook, Church Hill, Woiwera. COMPLIMENTARY. I nm very much pleased with it. — John Cameron, fiwift Creek, Kolso. COULD NOT HAVE A BETTER CHARACTER. I havo given tho " RRCino" WarohoußS Fan Mill a good trial, and it gives every satisfac- tion. I consider it a fiist>rato article. It cleans and grades grain rapidly and well, is strong, works smoothly, and will,! think, provo durable. It is much superior to cny other machine of tho kind I have ever scon. — F. W Mackenzie (the Captain), Pomahi.ku. BEST MACHINE OF THE KIND I HAVE EVER SEEN. I havo tried it with wheat, oats, and turnip seed. I can confidently say that it is all that it claims to be. In fnct, it is a long way tho best machine of tho kind I have ever scon. With a larger assortment of riddles, I believe it will dress m a superior manner any kind of Bcedb.— William LiTTLKjonN, Waiwora. WOULD NOT LIKE TO WANT ONE NOW— NO ONE SHOULD. I can confidently iccom mend tho "Racine" Fanners to do their work well, nna with extreme facility, I would not by any meane like to want ono now, nnd I think no farmo; should. — David Mackknzik, Waiwora.
