Dsab Fbibitdh— We have some hesita- tion m addressing you m the manner fol- lowing, bet hope that it will hot be looked at In any invidious light, when we itate that lv Is only our hegard .for your health th*t causes us TO do it. We have b3en a Firm of Analytical Chemists for many, many years and have m the long course of tbls time manufactured, certain Medicines that being baaed on scientific formula and absolhte care and precision In manufacture, have enjoyed a popularity far m advance of any other JPhapmoceW- c»l Preparations of the day. How buo- ~ *-* » » •- ivi_. i. «.„i^,.*v» note tho extraordinary amount of the rales of our Haydook s New Liver Pttl. We havo the pleasure to strte that we have sold 28,089 Vials of Dr Haydook'e New Liver Pills. The reason <of this de. mand Is because we find In Haydook' New Liver Pills a wonderful and extra ordinary combination of concentrated medicine. The Victories of Science— Electric 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 for diseases and claiming mnoh as to their merit, the remarkable dis- covery of Dr Haydoek has eolipsed them all, and has founded a New Medloal Sys- tem. TheDootors, whose vast doses of four or five Pills enfeeble the itomaoh and paralyae the bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with one or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Dr Hay. dock's New Liver Pills suffices to place the stomach In perfeot order oreates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver la effected Its func- tions are restored, and if the Nervous System le enfeebled, It li Invigorated and sustained, TRANSLATION. Aykab, Province of Burmah, 8.1.

Baylis Storekeeper, Triangle, JAM PRIMO. ■» Some time since we published a smal paragraph en the unsatisfactory nature o much of the jam retailed In the colony This reaohed Messrs Ktrkpatrlok and 00. of Nelson, and they went to work m i very praotical fashion to prove that th< jams manufactured by the firm were o the best quality. Two cases of assortec jams were sent to this offioe, with a re- quest that we would thoroughly test thi jam along with other brands, and give oui opinion. We are happy to state, frankl] and fully thai we nave been vory muoi surprised, as prior to the receipt o Messrs Kirkpatrlok's gift we were onawan that New Zealand could boast of an In- dustry of whiob it has so much reason t< be proud. The various sorts of ffla wer< tested by a number of persons, wh< oompared the samples with other bftnds and the general verdiot is ih«t not onij are Messrs Kirkpatrlok's productions fai aud away better than any other New Zealand brand we can obtain, bat the"s are superior to English jams m being fresher. The nearest approach to the excellence of the Nelson jam was thai contained m tins bearing the name of a Tasmanlan firm, but even In this com- parison thejNelson article oame out a long way best. We are pleased to be able tc give unstinted praise to a genuine local induatry, the prodnot of whloh we can unreservedly recommend to consumers. All of the many persons who have tested the samples are loud In their praise, and we must unreservedly congratulate Mesne Ktrkpatrlok and 00. upon turning oot i genuine fruit jam fit to grace the tablet and pleaße tbe palates of the' most luxurious aud fastidious.— " Hawke's Bay j Herald," July 18th. Samples of Klrkpatrlck and Go's " X brand of jam have been forwarded to ne and we are free to oonfess tbajt chey appear to be In every way exoelleht and as they become better known In the local market will meet with much appreciation from the heads of households. The maker asserts that none but the purest fruits grown In Nelson are used In bis manu- factures, and we are content to accept that assurance. Certainly the jams possess a riohness and freshness ot flavor that bears that assertion out.— Dunedi
