A VICTIM OF Functional Disease. A 1 avi i m NEVER fails an y onß J, n X-l.ielA.Ulll 6UC h a predicament. To gufferera 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 beßt. 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 oare is required while using it. It does not interfere with the diet, habitß or occu- pation, and produces no inconvenienoe m its 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 publio m a popular 1 form. ALAXUM , CURESI Biliousness, Bilious Headache,°£Dizztneßß, Coativeness, Sour Stomach, Loss of Appetite, Coated Tongue, Indigestion Dyspepsia, Flatulence, Heartburn Pains and Distress after Eating, and all functional derangements of the of nutrition. |j NOTE THIS WELL.— The whole system of a human being may be perfectly sound, and yet through derange- ment or weakness the or; Miiof 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 see 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 useless, 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 its 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 organio disease health must follow* This is common sense and cannot be gainsaid. Accept no substitute that may be recom- mended to be " just as good.', It may be better — for the dealer — because of its better profit, but m such an instance] the dealer is not the one who needs help. ■ " I [FROM ALL CHEMISTS£& STOKE- KEEPERS, PK10.3 2s 6d THE FIRST SIGN OF A COLD Should remind you that the best time to commence taking something is at the begin- ning.

Woolston, August 10, 1897. ' To Spencer Vincent, Christchurch, ] Dear Sir, — For some time past I have ( been suffering from a most painful cough. I had quite given up hope of its ever leaving me, at leasb or the remainder of the winter, and feared that it had become chronio, seeing that other remedies failed to give me relief, much less oure. The pain became so intense that I was afraid of injuring my throat and head, especially the latter. I procured one bottle of your Benjamin Gum, and I may say that I hadn't an atom of i; faith m its curative properties, bub felb that I must take something to ease the pain. I drank contents of first bottle very freely, and am thankful to say m less than twelve hourß I was wholly free from oougb. E. W. Sears. P. S. —Nearly three months einoe oougb egau,— E.W.B.

In order that these crude oils may not be taken, OUR PURE VOLATILE EUOALV PTI EXTRACT, which ia recognised by the medical 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 tote:— It is proved by tests by the Medical Clinics of the Universities at Bonn and Greifswald, Prussia, and reported by Dr. Schulz, Professor of Parmacology, at Bon, and Professor Dr; Mossier, Director of the Medical Clinics at Greifswald, that only products that are saturated with oxygen and freed of ds resinous and other aubstapcos, adherent to primary distillation, will develope the sanative qualities proper to the plant \\l crude oils, or so called Eucalypti 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 oalled Eucalypti Extracts, ate discernible : 1 By their deficiency m pungenb odour— which our product, the only genuine Eucalypti Extract develops most 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, bo called eucalypt extracts, are applied hy mistake m cases of croup, bronchitis, diphtheria, internal nflamationa, dysentery, etc., the con- sequences are most appalling.
