AN INEXPRESSIBLE BOON TO MOTHERS, Dr Auguste Kursteiner's ELECTRO GALVANIC TEETHING NECKLET Endorsed by the Medical Facnlty of Europe, And pronounced by al Leading Physlciana The Greatest Discovery of the Age IN placing the Eleotrlo Neoklet before the New Zealand pnbllo the dlaooverer and proprietor begs to draw Special attention to the fact that the material surround- ing the Inner chain of metallic substances Is Impregnated with a chemical solution, harmless In itself, and yet containing titanlo powers, which generate a continuous light current of galvanism, and the Necklet m consequence contains all the virtues of a miniature battery, and is therefore not a useless article like so many of the co-called electrio appliances, which cannot .possibly produce any good results, as they are incomplete In the most essential requirements, and cannot generate galvanism nor produce galvanio effects. . This Neoklet Is the outcome of a long-continued Berleß of Investigating experiments by that well-known and eminent scientist and specialist, Dr Augusta Kursteiner, who is the highest European authority on all diseases of women and children The Lancet, the leading medical journal of the world, says : — " The fact that the discovery and Invention of these Necklets is announced by Dr Kureteiner Is a sufficient guarantee, that a means has at last been discovered which will Bave 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, oh the Continent, and m the United States, and are now constantly prescribed by the moat 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 untimely grave hundreds of Infants whose lives might have been < saved by the use of the simple Neoklet. In addition to the relief from pain afforded by the Necklet during the period of dentition, by its nerve-givhg force it wards off and prevents Measles, Whooping Cough, Scarlet Foyer, Croup, and Chicken Pox, thus relieving childhood of its martyrdom, and gladdening the heart of every mother who Invokes Its aid, Dr Kursteiner has appointed Messrs CONROD «fc CO., Auckland, his cole agents m New Zealand for the sale of theee Necklets, from whom only they can be obtained. The price has been placed at the very lowest possible 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 a remedial and preventive agent, the Necklet 1 a handsome ornament, and will be sent free on receipt of One Pound, by poßta note, money order, or registered letter, No cheques received.
