AOTCNT ASHBrmTO ~ AN INEXPRESSIBLE BOON TO MOTHERS. Dr Auguste Kurpteiner's ELECTRO GALVANIC TEETHING NECKLET, Endorsed by the Medical Faculty of Europe, And pronounced by all Leading PKysiiians The Greatest Discovery of the Age IN piaoing the Electric Necklet before the New Zealand public the discoverer and proprietor begs to draw Special attention to the fact that the material surround- ing the inner ohain of metallic pubstances is impregnated with a chemical solution, harmless m itself, and yet containing titanic rowers, which generate a continuous light onrrent of galvanism, and the Necklet m consequence contains ail the virtues 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 In the most essential requirements, and cannot generate galvanism nor produce galvanic effeots. This Neoklet la the outcome of a loog.oontinued series of Investigating experiments by that well-known and eminent scientist and specialist, Dr Aogoste Kursteiner, who Ib tho highest European authority on all diseases of women and children The Lancet, the leading medical jonrnal of the world, says : — " The ftot that tha discovery and invention of these Necklets la announced by Dr Kuretetner 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 most Wonderful Success m England, on the Continent, and m the United States, and are now constantly prescribed by the most eminent physicians m their dally practice. It is needless to comment on the anzions and sleepless sights parsed by thousands 0$ mothers during the palnfal period of the teething cf infanta. Every day brings to an untimely grave hundreds of infanta whose lives might have been saved by the use of the simple Necklet. In addition to the relict from pain afforded 1y tfct N oklafc during the period of dentition, by its nerve-giving force it wards oft cv,. pi events Meaßles, Whonpinp Cough, Scarlet Fever, Orcup, and Ohicien Pox, thus relieving childhood of its martyrdom, and gladdening tho heart of every mrther who Invokes its aid, Dr Kursreiner has appointed Mes«rß OONPOD V CO., Auckland, his solo agents m New Zd'aland for the sale of thope Necklets, from whom only they osn be obtained. Th« price has bfen placed at the very lowest poßsible point, point, barely c iveriotf the cost of importation, and ia within tho reach of all, as one Neoklet will last a life time. Aside from Its many virtues as a remedial and preventive agenr, the Necklet 1 a handsome ornamoot, and will be sent froa on receipt of One Pound, by posta note, money order, or registered letter. No ohequos received. Address -J CONROD&CO., P.O.
