HYDROPATHIC FSTABLISHMENT ASHBURTON. IN dunking the Public for their liber*' BUpport daring the short neason I have opened this business for the troa' menfc of ALL DISEASES by the svsren. of Hydropathy, I have pleasure in announcing that we have been successful in all casea taken into the establishment;. Among the various cases, we have had congestion of the lungs, chest, liver, stomach and kidney complaints, lumbago, nciitica, rheumatism, bronchitis, influenza, inflammation, bad legs, neuralgia, weak ness and debility. The following is one of the many testimonials :— Christchurch, November 30,1894 I have great pleasure in testifying to the good results obtained from the course of baths and treatment adopted at Mb Rum's Hydropathic Establishment. My wife had sustained a very severe attack of bronohltis and congestion of the lungs, and was evidently sinking from exhaustion when she became an inmate of the above institution. After a fortnight's baths and skilled nursing she quite recovered and was able to resama her domestic duties. Too much cannot be said in praise of the care and attention bestowed upon patienta by Mr and Mrs Rulb and trained nurses and both attendants engaged.—E H Brown. w. hTrule, PROPRIETOR THE DENSMORE THE WORLD'S GREATEST TYPEWRITER.

In England, the Continent, and many foreign countries myself and wares are well known. Many American families on their return from abroad bring my articles with them, for they know them pretty well, but you may not be one of these. Confidence between man and man is slow of growth, and when found, its rarity makes it valuable. I ask your confidence and make a reference to this Journal to endorse that confidence. I do not think it wiJl be misplaced, I make the best form of cure—an absolute one—for biliousness and headache that can be found in this year. The cure is so small in it self, and yet its comfort to you is so great—twenty minutes being its limit when relief comes—that it has become a marvel of its time. One and a half grains of medicine, coated with sngar is my remedy, in the shape of one small pill, known to commerce as Dr Haydogk's New Livee Pill. It is old in the market of Europe, but is new to North America. The price is as low as an honest medicine can be sold at, 25 cents. Send a postal card for a sample vial, to try before you purchase.
