busmeas Notices. HYDROPATHIC ESTABLISHMENT ASHBURTON. I N thanking tho Public for their liberal " support during the short season I have opened this busi..e>-8 for the treat - raent of ALL DISEASES by the system of Hydropathy, I have pleasure in announcing that we have been successful in all eases taken into the establishment. Among the various cases, we have had congestion of the lungs, chest, liver, stomach and kidney complaints, lumbago, sciatksa, rheumatism, bronchitis, influenza, inflammation, bad legs, neuralgia, weak ness and debility. The following is one of the many testimonials:— Ohristchnrch, November 30, 1894 I have great pleasure in testifying to the good results obtained from the course of baths and treatment adopted at Mr Rule's Hydropathic Establishment. My : wife had sustained a very severe attack of bronchitis and congestion of the longs, and was evidently sinking from exhanstion when she became an inmate of the above Institntion. After a fortnight's baths and skilled nursing she quite recovered and was able to resume her domestic duties. Too much cannot be said In praise of the care and attention bestowed upon patients by Mk and Mrs Rule and trained nnrees and both attendants engaged.—E H Brown. W. H.IULE, PROPRIETOR



OiNE WORD, T COME to you with a small affair a that you may need. 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 will 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 sugar is my remedy, in the shape of one small pill, known to commerce as Dr Haydock'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.



For Bilious and Nervous Disorders, such as Wind and Pain in the Stomach, Sick Headache, Giddiness, Fulness and Swelling after meals, Dizziness and Drowsiness, Cold Chills, Flushings of Heat, Loss of Appetite, Shortness of Breath, Costiveness, Blotches on the Skin, Disturbed Sleep, Frightful Dreams, and all Nervous and Trembling Sensations, &C. THE FIRST DOSE WILL GIVE RELIEF IN TWENTY MINUTES. This is no fiction. Every sufferer is earnestly invited to try one Box of these Pills, and they will be acknowledged to be "'WORTH A GUINEA A BOX." BEECHAM'S PILLS, taken as directed, will quickly restore females to complete health. 'They promptly remove any obstruction or irregularity of the system. For a "Weak Stomach; Impaired Digestion; Disordered Liver; t hoy net like magic—a few doses will work wonders upon the Vital Organs ; Strengthening 1 tho muscu lar' System; restoring the long-lost Complexion; bringing back the keen edge of appetite, and arousing with the Hoskhud of Hkai.th the whole fiivsjcai, eni.ri; vof the human frame. Kor throwing off fevers in hot climates they are specially renowned. These are " facts " admitted by thousands, in all classes of society, and one of the best guarantees to the Nervous and Debilitated is that Beecham't Fills have the Largest Sale of an;/ Patent Medicine in the World.
