We have been a Firm of Analytical Ohemlßti for many, many ffeara and have m the long course of this time mandfaotared certain Medicines that being based on solentino formula and abßolnte care .and precision In manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far In advance of any other PharmaceutU -oaLPrftPMtatlons of the day. How sup. oessfuTwe have bew In thlfl, H-only to note the extraordinary amount of the tales of onr Haydook ■ New Liver Pill. We have the pleasarr to strte that we have sold 28,083 Vials of Dr Haydook's New Liver PUli. The reason of this de- mand fi because . wfl find m Haydook' New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medlolne. The Viotorlea of Solenoe— Eleotrlo Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolntlonlaed the whole system of the globe, and made mankind wiser and bet- ter. So, although there are countless Pills used" for diseases and olalming muol as to their merit, the remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydook has eclipsed them all, and has fonnded a New Medioal Sys- tem. TheDooton, whose vast dosei of four or five pills enfeeble the stomaoh •nd paralyse the bowele, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with ond or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pill*. One or two of Dr Hay- dook's New Liver Pills inffioes to plaoe the stomaoh In petfeot. order ereatek an appetite, aad renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver is affooted itsfuno- tions are restored, and If the Nervous System is enfeebled, it is inrlgorated and snstained. ' ' TRANSLATION. Aykab, Provlsoe of Barman, '8.1.

JAM PRIIO. - — . ♦ Some time since we published a small paragraph en the unsatisfactory nature of much of the jam retailed m the colony. This reached Messrs Klrkpatrlok aiid 00., of Nelson, and they went to work In » very practical fashion to prove that the jams manufactured by the firm were of the best quality. Two cases of assorted jams were sent to this office, with a re- quest that we would thoroughly test the jam along with other brands, and give oar opinion. We ar£ happy to state, frankly and fully that we have been very 1 moon surprised, an prior to the receipt of Messra^Klrkpatrlok's gift we were ana ware that flew Zealand could boast of an In-, duatry of whlcb It has so mnoh reason to be proad. Tbo varloaa aorta ot 'Jfhr were tented by a number of ' persons, wbo compared the samples with other brands, and the general verdtot m that not only are Messrs Kltkpatnok'a productions far and away better than any other .New Zealand brand wa can obtain, but they-' are superior to English jama In being fresher. The nearest approach to the excellence of the itfelion jam was that contained m tins bearing the name of a Tasmanlan firm, bat even In this com- parison the.Nelson artlole came out a long wajr.beet. We are pleased to be able to give unstinted praise to a genuine local industry, the product of whioh we oan unreservedly recommend to consumers. All of the many persons who have tested the aamplea are loud In their praise, and we must noreiervedly congratulate Messrs Ktrkpatrlck and 00. upon turning oat a genuine fruit j»m fit to grace the table's and please the palates of the most luxurious and fastidious.-— •* ilawke's Bay Herald," July 18th. Samples of £lrkpatrlok and Go's " X " brand of jam have been forwarded to us and we are free to confess that they appear to be m every way excellent and as they become better knows In the local market will meet with muoh appreciation from the heads of households. The maker astern that none but the purest fruits grown (n Nelson are used In his manu- factures, and we are content to accept that assurance.
