We have been a firm of Analytical Ohemista for many, many years and have m the long course of this time manufsotured oertain Medicines that being based on scientific formula and absolnte care and precision ln manufacture, have enjoyed a popular! by far m advance of any other Pharmaceuti- cal Preparations of the day. How suo- oensful we have bean Jn this, is only to note the extraordinary amount of the tales of our Haydook s New Liver Pill. We have the pleasure to strte that we htwe sold 28,089 Vials of Dp Hnydook's New Liver PUk The reason of this de. mand Is because we find m Haydook' New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary eombii?atlon of concentrated medloine. The Yiotorles of Soience— Eleotrlo Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet* ter. So, although there are countless Pills used tot diseases and olalmlng muoh aa to theli merit, the remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eollpsed them all, and has founded a New Medical Sys- tem. TheDooton, whose vast doses of font oi five pllis enfeeble the itomaeh and paralyse tho bowels, mast give way to the man who restores health and appetite with one os two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills; One or two of Dir Hay- dock's New Liver Pills suffices to plaoe the stpmaoh In perfeot order creates an, appetite, and renders the spirit light, and buoyant. If the Liver is affeoted Us func- tions are reßtored, and if the Nervous System Is enfeebled, it Is l&rlgorated and sustained. . TRANSLATION. • Aykab, Provlsoe of Burmah, 8.1.

JAM PRIMO. » Some time since we published a amall paragraph en the unaatlsfaotory nature of much of the jam retailed m the colony. Thla reached Meaara Klrkpatrlok and Co., of Nelson, and they went to work m a very praotloal faahlon to prove (hat the jams manufactured by the firm were of the beat quality. Two caaea of assorted jama were sent to this office, with a re- quest that we would thoroughly teat the jam along with other brands, and give oar opinion. We are happy to state, frankly and fully that we nave been vary muoh anrprlßed, aa prior to the receipt of Messrs Klrkpatrlok'a gift we were unaware that JSew Zealand could boast of an In- dustry of which it has so muoh reason to be prond. The various aorta of j?nT were tested by a number of petaona, who compared the samples with other brands, and the general verdict la that not only are jtleaara Ktrkpatrlck'a productions far and away better thau any other Hew Zaaland brand we oan obtain, but they, are superior to JfenMiiaa jams m being fr-ahnr. The nearest approach to the excellence of the JNelaon jam waa that contained m tlna bearing the name of • Taamanian firm, bnt even In this com- parison the Nelson article came out a long way beat. We are pleaaed to be able to give unstinted praise to a genuine local industry, the produot of which we oan unreservedly recommend to oonsumera. < All of the many persona who have teßted the samples are loud In their praise, and we mast unreservedly congratulate Mea«ra Klrkpatrlok and Co, npon turning out a genuine fruit jam fit to grace the tables and pleaae the palatea of the most ,'Uxarluoß and fHstldtoua,-— " Mawke'a .Bay Herald," July 18th. Samples of Klrkpatrlck and Go's " X " brand of jam have been forwarded to ua and we are free to oonfeas that they appear to be m every way excellent and aa they become better known m the local market will meet with muoh appreciation from the heads of household*. The maker i aaaerts that none but the purest fruits grown m Nelaon are used m bia manu- factures, and we are content to accept i that assurance.

During tbe past week suffered great pain and inconvenience from a dislocated knee, which had been properly attended to shortly after the occurrence, bat which always continued weak and frequently slipped out of joint, notwithstanding the inte cap which I wore. During the period I obtained medical advice and trLd the proscribed remedies, but without any benefit for my knee continued as weak as ever uctil I tried the Canadian Caies Applying the Canadian remedies according to directions I soon found my knee brooming stranger, and m n short time 1 waß enabled to aba-., don the knee cap. Three weeks after ■ tar ting to us? the remedies I discarded tbem as my knee wat as strong as over before the accident, *nd continues to remai so through every kind of trLl Aeain heartily recommending the Canadian Cures, I cm, etc., Geo.
