AN INEXPRESSIBLE BOON TO MOTHERS. Dr Auguste Kursteiner's ■ ELECTRO GALVANIC TEETHING NECKLET i .... i / ■ Endorsed by the Medical Faculty of Europe, And pronounced by al Leading Physicians 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 surround- ' ing the inner chain of metallic substances is Impregnatpd with a chemical Bolutlon, J harmless In itself, an.i yet containing titanic powers, whloh generate a continuous t light current of galvanism, and the Necklet m consequence contains all the virtues of c a miniature battery, and is therefore not a useless article like so many of the so-called J electric appliances, which oannot possibly produce any good results, as they are ° incomplete m the moat eaeentlal requirements, and oannot generate galvanism not j produce gaivanio effeota, This Necklet la the outcome of a long-continued series of investigating experiments by that well-known and eminent scientist and specialist, Dr Aaguste Kurstelner, who is the highest Europesn authority on all diseases of women and children The Lancet, the leading medical journal of the world, Bays :— " The fact that the discovery and Invention of theae Necklets is announced by Dr Kursteiner Is a sufficient guarantee that a means has at laßt been discovered which will save the lives of millions of children, and relieve the anxiety of many mothers. ' Although new to New Zealand, fchese Necklets have been ÜBed 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 daily practice. It is needless to comment on the anxious and sleepless nights passed by thouaands of mothers during the painful period of the teething of infanta. Every day brings to an untimely grave hundreds of infants whose lives might have been saved by the übo of the Bimple Necklet. : In addition to the relief from pain afforded by the Necklet during the period of dentitiou, by its nerve giving force it watH« nff *nA prevents Measles, Whoopine Oough, Scarlet, Fever, Croup, and Chicken Pox, thus relieving childhood of its martyrdom, and gladdening the heart of every mother who invokes Its aid, Dr Kurstelner has appointed Messrs CONROD & CO., Auckland, hie sole agenta m New Zealand for the Dale of these Necklets, from v?hom only they oan be obtained. The price haß been placed at the very lowest possible point, point, barely covering the coal of importation, and is within the reach of all, as one Necklet will last a life time. Aside from Us many virtues as a 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 Clean rSced can ft 1i po without a BACINE FAN MILL. Practical Farmers have pronouncod it thb Beet— read TESTIMONIALS below. Wbile it has capacity to Clean from 60 tn 90 bushels per hour. Ho. 1 FARM MILL Is 2ft B in over all, ond is furnished with Wheat Hurdle, one "Wheat Screen arxOt with side spout, ene Barley Sieve, anone Sieve. Bieres for other purposes nrni and charged for as extras. F. FEBEIMAN. FFEBBIMAN would call your attention 0 to this Improved Farm Fanning Mill which combines all the advantages of the various Mills now m use, and also the follow- ing important and greatly needed Improve^ ments : — FißST.—ln the width of the Mill, it being wider than most Farm Mills of similar size, thereby increasing the cleaning capacity to a large extent. Bboond.— The improved plan of hanging th shoe upon strong strap-hinged hangers, thu preventing constant breakage. Third.— ld the matterr t fastening the drum ha head to the po&ts by means of a castiron lorf circle, and seenred to the posts by screws (instead of wooden cleats morticed into posts and held by wooden keys), adding increased strength and durability to the Mill. . Fourth. — The great advantage of 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 ran* ning m a thimble or box, three incheß long, of Chilled Iron, and extending through the I posts, giving it a ateady and easy motion. 1 For cleaning and separating all lands of grain, we guarantee thie Mill to be equal to, and m fact superior, m all respecta, to any now m nse. The fan with wind boards are so ar- ranged that the wind strikes the hurdle m such a manner as to blow all foul stuff and light grain over the hurdle. The side spout delivers the No 1 &rain at the side, and the No 2 grain at the front of the Mill. The grader can be bo adjusted as to separate and deliver through the side spont a greater or less portion of the best grain; The wheat screens and grader are so arranged as to effectually take out ccckle from No 1 and No 2 wheati No Farmer or Dealer should be without one as they are inraluable to all who wish to market their seed m good condition, and thus save the heavy deductions usually made tor impurities and foul Btuff, and also the extra freight charges and cost of cleaning. They also save tune, and by the thorough and com- plete work which can be accomplished with them, Boon repay the cost incurred m their purchase. To Farmers raising large quantities of Grain, or Seem, we would recommend the No 2 Ware- house Mill, as specially adapted for their nss, as the great saving of time will compensate fox the difference m the first cost. They can be rnn by hand as easily aa a Farm Size, althoagb constructed much heavier, and made more durable. Be guided by experience of others and ordei a "Batine Mill." Too dv/n't want a better record than it has. Bead. MADE A SPLENDID JOB. I put some bags of wheat through lasl spring, they made a splendid job. A neighboi borrowed mine to rnn through some oati wheat; he was highly pleased with the jol they made.— Wili-iam Blaf b, Hillfon WaiWera NEYEB SAW ITS EQJAL. I have only üßed the " Bacine ,V Mill, as yet for dressing oats, wheat, and grass seed. I has given me great satisfaction.

I I have given the " Bacine " Warehouse Fa Mill a good trial, and it gives every aa*isiac ton. I consider it * first-rate article.

In fact, it is a long way th best machine of the kind I have ever seei With a larger assortment of riddles, I belies it will dress m a superior manner any kind seeds.— William Littlbjohn, Waiwera WOULD NOT LIKE TO WANT ONE NOW— NO ONE SHOULD.
