AN INEXPRESSIBLE BOON TO MOTHERS. Dr Auguste Kurt?teiner's ELECTRO GALVANIC TEETHING NECKLET Endorsed by the Medical Faoulty of Europe, And pronounced by al Leading Physicians The Greatest Discovery of the. Age IN placing the Eleotrlo Neoklet before the New Zealand pnblio the dlflcorerei* anc proprietor begs to draw Special attention to the" fact that the material surround- ing the inner ohain o! Metallic sabatanceß is Impregnated with a chemical solution, harmless In itself, an.i yet oontaining titanio powers, which generate a eontinuoni light onrrent of galvanism, and the Neoklet m consequence contains all the virtues oi • miniature battery, and is therefore not a useless artiole like so many of the so-called eleotrio appliances, which cannot possibly produce any good results, as they arc Incomplete In the most essential requirements, and cannot generate galvanism noi prodooe galvanio effects. This Neoklet is the outcome of a long-continued series of investigating experiments by that well-known and eminent scientist and specialist, Dt A.oguete Kurstelner, who Is the highest Europesn authority on all diseases oi 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 Kurstelne? is a auffioient guarantee that a means has at last been discovered whioh will save the lives of millions of ohildren, 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 moot eminent physicians m 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 laved by tbe use of the simple Necklet. In addition to the relief from pain afforded by the Necklet during the period of 'dentition, by its nerve glvi-g force it wards off and prevents Measles, Whooping mMFyrdomr'and^ladaeDJnglJie hearFof Vverf fffottfeir wdtf'favtann itSiho? J -*■ **- Dr Kursteiner has appointed Messrs OONROD & CO., Auokland, his aol* agents* m New Zealand for the sale of these Necklets, from i»hom only tbey oan be obtained. The price has been, placed at the very lowest possible point, point, barely covering the coat of importation, and is within the reach of all, as one Neoklet will last a life time. Aside from its many virtues as a remedial and preventive agent, the Necklet ! a handsome ornament, and will be sent free on receipt of One Found, by posta vote, money order, or reg'atered letter. No cheques received. Address- J. OONROD & CO., P.O. Box 408, Auckland, N.Z, ~ W.

Sieves for other pnrpcßcii fiui and charged for as extra*. F. FBERIMAN. FFBRBIMAN wonld call your attention « to this Improved Farm Fanning Mill whicn combines all the advantages of the vanons Mills now m use, and also the follow- ing important and greatly needed Improve- ments :— First.— ln the width of the Mill, it being wider than most Farm Mills of similar size, thereby increasing the cleaning capacity to a large extemt. B»CORD.— The improved plan of hanging th choc upon strong strap<binged hangors. thn preventing constant breakage. Third.— ld the matterrt fastening the dram j ha head to the potts kj means of a caatiron i lorf circle, and secured to the poets by screws ] (instead of w*odea cleat* morticed into posts and held by wooden keys), adding increase** strength and durability to the Mill. Focbth.— 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 la* side of the mill, oat 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 pests, giving it a steady and easy motion. For cleaning and separating all 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 strikes the hurdle m such a manner as to blow all foul stuff and light grain over the hurdle. The side spont delivers the No 1 train 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 side spout a greater or less portion of the best grain.- The wheat screens and grader are so arranged as to effectually take out ccckle from To 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 for Impurities and foul BtufE, 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, Eoon repay the cost incurred m their purchase. To Farmers raising large quantities of Grab, or Seeds, we would recomaend the No 2 Wan* house Mill, as specially adapted for their use, as the great saving of time will compensate for the difference m the first cost They can be run by hand aa easily a« a Farm Size, although constructed much heavier, and made more du r able. Be guided by experience of others and order a "Bacine Mill." You don'fc want a better record than it has. Bead. MADE A SPLENDID JOB. I put some 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 Blaf c, Hillfort Waiwera. NBVEB SAW ITS EQJAL. I have only used the " Bacine " Mill, as yet, for dressing oats, wheat, and grass seed. It has given me great satisfaction. I have never seen its equal for grading wheat for seed, and I have seen and helped te work a good many. — Wiiltam Brook, Church Hill, Waiwera. COMPLIMENTARY. I am very much pleased with it,— JOHN Cameron, Bwift Creek, Kelso. COULD NOT BAVB A BETTER CHARACTER. I have given the " Bacine " Warehonße Fan Mill a gooi tnal, and it giveß every sa'istac- ton. I consider it * first* rate article. It clf-ans and grades grain rapidly and well, if strong, works smoothly , and will, I think, provi durable. It is much Bcperior to any otbei machine of the kind I have ever seen.— F. W, Maokbnzim (the Capt»in), Poosahaka. BEST MACHINE OF THE KIND I HAVI EVER SEEN. I have tried it with wheat, oats, and turnii seed I can confidently say that it is all thai it claims to be. In fact, it is a long way th< best machine of the kind I have ever seen With a larger assortment of riddles, I believi it will dress m a superior manner any kind seeds. — "William Littlejohr, Waiwera WOULD NOT LIKE TO WANT ONE NOW— NO ONE SHOULD. I can confidently recommend the " Racine Fanners te do their work well, and wltl extreme facility. I would not by any mean like te want one now, and I think no fame should— David Mackenzie, Waiwera.
