AN INEXPRESSIBLE BOON TO MOTHERS, Dr Auguste KurFteiner's j ELECTRO MLYANIC TEETHING NECKLET r [ Endorsed by the Medical Faoulty of Europe, • And pronounced by al i Leading Physicians The Greatest Discovery of the Age IN placing the Eleotrlo Necklet before tbe New Zealand pnblio the discoverer and ; proprietor bees to draw Speoial attention to the fact that the. material surround* Ing the inner chain of metallic substances Is Impregnated with a ohemical solution, harmless m itielf, anA yet' containing titanic rovers, whioh generate a continuous light current of galvanism, and the "Necklet m consequence contains ail the virtues of a miniature battery, and is therefore not a useless artiole like so many of the so-called eleotrlo appliances, which cannot possibly prodnoe any good results, as they are Incomplete ln the most essential requirements, . and oannot generate galvanism nor produce gaivanio effeots. This Neoklet Is the outcome of * a long-continued series of investigating experiments by that well-known and eminent soientist and specialist, Dr Auguste Kursteiner, who is the highest Europesn authority on all diseases of women and children The Lanoet, tbe leading medloal journal of the world, says : — "The faot that the discovery and Invention of these Necklets is announced by Dr Kursteiner Is a sufficient guarantee that a means has at last been discovered- whioh .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 In England, on the Continent, and m the United States, and are now constantly prescribed by the most eminent physicians In their 'daily practice. [ It is needless to comment on the anxious and sleepless nights passed by thousands of mothers during the painful -period of the teething of infants. - Every day brings to an nntimeJy„gravß hundreds of infants whose Uvea 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 oXj&njbitiou, hy Its nerve-feivi-g force It wards off and prevents Measles, Whooping martyrdom, and gladdening the neatf % o\ 'every^motrier wno^favlraes htf •ttor' - «' **» Dr Kursteiner has appointed Messrs CONROD & CO., Auokland, bis sole ' agents m New Zealand for the sale of these Necklets, from ffhom only thoy oan be obtained. The price has been placed at th 6 very lowest poßßlble point, 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 £ remedial and preventive agent, the Necklet! a handsome ornament, and will be sent free on receipt of One Pound, by posta note, money order, or registered letter.

No Farmer valuing Olean (Seed can aft to uo without a RACINE FAN MILL. Practical Farmers have pronounced it tbe Best— read TESTIMONIALS below. While it has capacity to Olean from 60 to 90 bußhels per hour. -. No. 1 FARM MILL ! Is 2ft Sin over all, and is furnished with Wheat Hurdle, one Wheat Screen aud Grade «Hitb side spout, ene Barley Sieve, and one Oat i^CSi?^ 8 . ,or ot her purposes furnished and charged for uo — L ..~. F. FfiBBUMiA«. FPEBBIMAH would call your attention • to this Improved Farm Fanning Mill whicl combines all the advantages of the various Mills now m ust, and also the follow- ing important and greatly needed Improve- ments :— Fibbt.— ln the width of the Mill, it being wider than, most Farm Mills of similar eize, thereby increasing the cleaning capacity to a large extent. ... Beconu.— The improved plan of banging th shoe upon strong strap-hinged hangers, thn preventing constant breakage. Thibu.— ln the matters* fastening tbe drum ba bead to the posts fej means of a castiron lorf circle, and secured to the posts by screws (instead of wooden cleats morticed into Hosts and held by wooden kejß), adding Increase* strength and durability to the Mill. Foubth.— The great advantage of raising or lowering the slide m the Hopper means of a screw. The irons «c of the most approved the wheel, pinion, and shake irons being strong. The gearing ia all placed on the in* side of the mill, out of the way. The bearing is formed by the hub of the large wheel run- ning m 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 all kindß 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 so ar* : ranged that the wind strikes the hurdle m such , a manner as to blow all feul stuff and light groin over the hurdle. The side spout delivers the Nol I rain at the side, and the No 2 grain at the front of the Mill. The grader can be so adjusted as to separate and deliver through the I side spout a greater or less portion of the best grain; The wheat screens and grader are so arranged as to effectually take out cockle from No 1 and No 2 wheat. No Farmer or Dealer Bhould be without one sb they are inraluable to all who wish to market their seed m good condition, and thus eavo the heavy deductions usually made for impurities and foul stuff, and also the extra freight charges and cost of cleaning. They also save time, and by the thorough and com* plete work which can be accomplished with them, soon repay the cost incurred m their purchase. To Farmers raisin g.large quantities of Grain, or Eeei'e, we would recommend the No 2 Ware* house Mill, bb specially adapted for their nse, as the great saving of .time Will compensate for < the difference m the first cost. They can be run by hand aB easily aa a Farm Size, although constructed much heavier, and made more durable. Be guided by experience of others and order a M Bacine MUI." Ton. don't want a better record than it has. Bead. MADE A SPLEHDID JOB. I put Borne bags of wheat through last spring, they made a splendid job. A neighbor borrowed mine to. run through some oaty wheat: he was highly pleased with the job they made. —William Blav c, Hillfort NEVER SAW ITS EQ«AL. I have only used the * Racuse " Mill, as-yet, for dressing oats, wheat, and grass seed. It has given me great satisfaction. I have never seen ite equal for grading wheat for Beed, and I have seen and helped to work a good many. — Wii-niAM Bbook, Church Hill. Waiwera. COMPLIMENTARY.

I have given the '• Bacine " Warehouse Fan Mill a good trial, and it gives every sa«isiac* t : on. I consider it * first-rate article. It cUans and grades grain rapidly and well, ia strong, works smoothly.and will, I think, provt durable. It is much Superior to any other machine of the kind I have ever seen.— F. W. MaokbwzW (the Captain). Pomahaka. ___,_ BEST MACHINE OF THE KIND I HAVE EVER SEEN. I have tried it with wheat, oatß, and turnip eeed. I can confidently say that it is all that it claims to be. In fact, it is a long way thi beßt machine of the kind I have ever seen, With a larger assortment of riddles, I believ< it will dreßS m a superior manner any kind Heeds.— William Littlejobit, Waiwera WOULD I*OT LIKE TO WANT ONE NOW— NO ONE BHOULD.
