Endorsed by the Medical Faculty of Europe, .

This Neoklet Is the outcome of a long-continued series of Investigating I experiments by that well-known and eminent scientist and specialist, Dr A agnate Kursteiner, who is the highest Kuropesn authority on all diseases of women and children ' , The Lanobt, the leading medical journal of the world, cays : — " The fact that the dlsoovery and invention of these Necklets is announced by Dr Kursteiner. is a sufficient guarantee 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, these Necklets have been used for the last five years with the roost Wonderful Success m England, on the Continent, and In the United States, and are now constantly prescribed by the moßt eminent physicians In their daily praotice J It Is needless to comment on the anxious and sleepless nights parsed by thousands of mothers during 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 use of the simple Necklet. •, \ In addition to the relief from pain afforded by the Necklet during the period of dentitiou, by its nerve-glvbg force it wards off and prevents Measles, Whooping Cough, Scarlet Fever, Oronp, and Chicken Pox, thus relieving childhood of its and gladdening the heart of every mother who Invokes ita aid* Dr Kursteiner has appointed Messrs CONROD & CO., Auokland, bis sole agents m New Zealand for the sale of these Necklets, from whom only they can be obtained. The price has been placed at the very lowest poeßible point, point, barely covering the cost of importation, and Is within the reach of all, ai one ' Necklet will last a life time. Aside from its many virtues as a remedial and preventive agent, the Necklet i a handsome ornameot, and will be sent free on receipt of One Pound, by poata note, money older, or registered letter.

No Farmer valuing Clean eked can an, to po without a EACINE FAN MILL. Practical Farmers hare pronounced it the Best— read TESTIMONIALS below. While it has capacity to Clean from 60 to 90 bushels per hour. No. 1 FARM MILL la 2ft Bin orer all, and is furnished with one Wheat Hurdle, one Wheat Screen and Gtader with side spout, one Barley Sieve, and one Oat Bieve. Sieves for other purposes furnished and charged for as extras. F. FERBIMAN. "171 FBBRIMAN would call your attention JP • to thiß Improved Farm Fanning Mill -which combines all the advantages of the Tftrtoue Milln now m use, and alao the follow- ing important and greatly needed Improve- ment* : — First.— ln the width of the Mill, it being wider than moat Farm Mills of Bimilar eizo, thereby increasing the cleaning capacity to a large extent. Bkcohd— The improved plan of hanging th choc upon atrong strap-hinged hangers, thu preventing constant breakage. Third.—ld the matter r! fastening the drum ha head to the posta hj means of aoastiron lorf circle, »nd secured to the posts by screws (instead of woodea cleats morticed into poets and held by woodsn keys), adding increased strength and durability to the Mill. Fourth. — The great advantage of I raising or lowering the slide m the Hopper | means of a screw. The irons ue of the most approved the wheel, pinion, and shake irons being strong. The gearing is all placed on the in> side of the mill, out of the way. The bearing is formed by the hub of the large wheel rnn- ningin a thimble or box, three inches long, of Chilled Iron and extending through the posts, giving it a steady and easy motion. For cleaning And separating ail kinds of grain, we guarantee thie Mill to be equal to, and m fact superior, m all respects, to any now m use. The fan with wind boards are bo ar* ■ ranged that the wind itrikes the hurdle m such a manner as to blow all fcul stuff and light grain over the hurdle. The Bide spout delivers the No 1 train at the Bide, and the No 2 grain at the front of the Mill. The grader can be so adjusted ob to separate and deliver through the side spout a greater or less portion of the best grain. Ths wheat screens and grader are so arranged as to effectually take out ccckle from No 1 and No 2 wheat. No Farmer or Dealer should bo without one as they are inralnable to all who wish to market their seed m good condition, and thus eavethe heavy deductions usually made for impuritieß and foul stuff, and also the extra freight charges and coat of cleaning. They also save time, and by the thorough and com* plete work which can be accomplished with them, booh repay the post incurred m their purchase. To Farmers raißing large quantities of Grain, or Geerts, we would recommend the No 2 Ware- house Mil), as specially adapted fcr their use, as the great saving of time will compensate for the difference m the first cost. They can be ran by hand aa easily aa a Farm Size, although constructed much heavier, and made more durable. Be guided by experience of others and order a "Bacine Mill." You don't want a better record than it has. Bead. MADE A SPLENDID JOB. I put Borne bags of wheat through last spring, they made a splendid job. A neighbor borrowed mine to ran through some oaty wheat : he waa highly pleased with the job they made. — William Blap g, Hillfort Waiwerat NBVEB BAW ITS EQ<JAL. 1 have only used the " Racine " Mill, as yet, for dressing oats, wheat, and grass eeed.

I am very much pleased with it,— JOHN Camehon, Bwift Creek, Kelso. COULD NOT BAVB A BETTER CHARACTER. I have given the " Bacine " Warehouse Fan Mill a good trial, and it gives every eaMslac- t'on. I consider it » first-rate article. It cleans and grades grain rapidly and well, ia strong, works smootbly,and»will, I think, provtf durable. It is much Superior to any other machine of the kind I have ever seen.— F, W. Maokbnzib (the Captain)- Pomahaka. BEST MACHINE OF THE KIND I HAVE EVER BEEN. I have tried it with wheat, oats ; 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 seen. With a larger assortment of riddles, I believe it will dreßS m a superior manner any kind eccHa.—YfzthXAV. Littlkjohxt, Waiwera WOULD ISOT LIKE TO WANT ONE NOW— NO ONE SHOULD.
