I is A VICTIM OF Functional Disease. A 1 qyi i m NEVER fails any one m -rVlcUVUlll suc h a predicament?. To sufferers from Sick Headache, Dyspepsia, Biliousness and Constipation it is "A friend m need and a friend indeed." Assist Nature by Alaxum, and you will avoid a multitude of distressing functional derangements and diseases. Of all known medicines for renew- ing the energy Alaxum is the best. Its secondary effects are marvellous. Many persons afflicted with constipation have testi- fied not only to its immediate relieving properties but to the fact that the oure lasts. No care is required while using it. It does not interfere with the diet, habits or occu- pation, and produces no inconvenience m ita action. It is at once a laxative, an appetiser, and a stimulating tonic, prepared scientifically, and endorsed by the Press as the most valuable medicine that has ever been offered to to the public m a popular form. ALAXUM <*»»' Biliousness, Bilious Headache,J Dizziness, Costiveness, Sour Stomach, Loss of Appetite, Coated Tongue, Indigestion Dyspepsia, Flatulence, Heartburn, Pains and Distress after Eating, and all functional derangements of the system of nutrition.!; NOTE THIS WJSLL,— The whole system of a human being may be yerfectlv sound, and yet through derange- ment or weakness the or; 'ts of the boay may perform their functions or their work sluggishly, thus giving rise to want of appetite, and a consequent general impover- ishment of the whole being. Such a con- dition causes thousands of people to fancy that they are consumptive, while they are really only m need of a remedy to sec the organs of the body working harmoniously. Reason points to two essential qualities m a remedy for this purpose. It must create an appetite for food, and at the same time assimilate its nutriment. With either of these qualities alone the remedy would be worse than useleHß, but with both it becomes a power with incalculable good. Alaxum is the only medicine which combines these two qualities. It is a natural appetiser, and ita first action is to create hunger. After the appetite is satisfied it acts directly on the stomach, liver and kidneys, clearing away all effete matter and exciting them to activity. The system then receives nutri- tion and new life from the proper assimila tion of the food ; and where there is no organic disease health musi follow. This is common sense and cannot be gainsaid. Accept no substitute that may be recom- mended to be " jtißt as good.', It may be better— for the dealer— -because 'of ita better profit, but m such an instance the dealer is not the one who needs help.

To Spemoer Vincent, Christchurch. Dear Sir, — For some time past I have been suffering from a most painful cough. J had quite given up hope of its ever leaving me, at least or the remainder of the winter, and feared that it had become chronio, seeing that other remedies foiled to givo me relief, much leas cure. The pain became so intenae that I was afraid of injuring my throat and head, especially the latter. I procured one bottle of your Benjamin Gum, and I may cay that I hadn't an atom of faith m its curative properties, but felt that I muat take something to ease the pain. I drank contents of firsb bottle very freely, and am thankful to say m less than twelve houre I was wholly free irom cough. E. W. Sears. P.S — Noarly three month! eiooe goueb

SA!lNI>Iil« Sc sons JEuea- lyj>ti Extrnct, Under the distinguished patronage of His Majesty the King of Italy, as per communica- •ion made by the Minister for Foreign Affairs through the Consul-General for Italy, at Melbourne, March 14, 1878. Awarded diploma at the Amsterdam Exhibition, 1883. Acknowledged by Medioal Clinics and Universities all over the Globe. There are imitations of Eucalypti Extract m the market, products of simple distillation forming crude resinous oils. In order that theße crude oils may not be taken, OUR PURE VOLATILE EUCALYPTI EXTRACT, which is recognised by the medioal division of the Prussian Government be of perfectly pure origin, as per information forwarded to ua through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2, 1878, we tate :— It is proved by tests by the Medical Clinics of the Universities at Bonn and Greifswald, Prussia, and reported by Dr. Sohulz, Professor of Parmacology, at Bon, and Professor Dr. Mossier, Director of the Mc.dical Clinics at Greifswald, that only products that are saturated with oxygen and freed of d t resinous and other aubstancoß, adherent to primary distillation, will develope the sanative qualities proper to the plant \ll crude oils, or so called Kucalypti Extracts are to be classed according to the named authorities, among the turpentines, which are abandoned long since as an nternal udicament. These crude oils, or so called Eucalypti Extracts, are discernible : 1 By their deficiency m pungent odour — which our product, the only genuine Eucalypti Extract} develops moat freely through its surplus oxygen. By their alcoholic thin and mobile appear- ance being reduced m specific density through the presence of acids. By their taste, the result of the contracting tendency of resins and tennateß. If these crude oils, so-called euoalypt extracts, are applied by mistake m cases of croup, bronchitis, diphtheria, internal nflamations, dysentery, etc., the con. sequences are most appalling.
