A. CONUNDRUM. I __ XjCTHY IS BENJAMIN GUM like a Hard-boiled Egg I— Beoause | it£ is HARD TO BEAT THAT precisely expresses the opinion of all who have used j Benjamin Gruin. There is no Cough Medioine like it. In- troduced into Canterbury only last winter its success was immediate. Thousands of bottles were sold m a few months, and hundreds of sufferers wrote gratefully to the proprietor of their Speedy Cure. It is not a oatohpenny Quack Medioine. It is made by a fully qualified Chemist, who knows his business-. It contains the same [ngredients as Friars' Balsam, which was first made by the Monks and Friara Of Europe m the dayß of old. Friara 1 Balsam has been used for Bix hundred years for healing outß and wounds. Spencer Vincent's Benjamin Gum is a Compound of this Balsam, with other Ingredients, prepared by a special prooeaa for internal use. Are you troubled with your Chest? BENJAMIN GUM Will heal the Lungs. It will not heal them at once. It must be ÜBed for boim time, and used regularly m old-standing cases. i ' Hare you a Cold m the Head or a Harßh Cough ! BENJAMIN GUM * ? Will Heal ihe inflammation of the throa J and passages of the nose as Friars' Balsan ' heals cutSi Coughs disappear with thi inflammation which causes them. 8 BENJAMIN GUM , Is not a chewing gum, but a very palatabl liquid. The bottle contains almost twine as mucl as any other Cou^h Mixture m the market It is the KING OF ALL. • PRICE : Is 6d and 2s 6d Chemists and Stores. Spencer Vincent, CHEMIST, OHRISTCHUROH, t PROPRIETOR. 1 A VICTIM OF Functional Disease. A 1 ovi i tvi NEVER fails twiy one ii •TO-lciXUlil 6Uc h a predicam<ent. T« ' sufferers from Sick Headache, Dyspepsia Biliousness and Constipation it is " A friem m need and a friend indeed." Assist Natur by Alaxum, and you will avoid a muititud of distressing functional derangements an< diseases. Of all known medicines for renew ing the energy Alaxum ia the beat. It secondary effects are marvellous. Man; persons afflicted with copßbipation have uesti fied not only to its immediate relievinj properties but to the faot that the cure lasts No care is required while using it. It doei not interfere with the diet, habits or oecu pation, and produces no inconvenience ii its action. It is at once a laxative, ar appetiser, and a stimulating tonic, prepared scientifically, and endorsed by the Press at the most valuable medioine that has evei been offered to to the public m a populai form. ALAXUM OURES< Biliousness, Bilious Headache, Dizziness, Costiveness, Sour Stomach^. Loss oi Appetite, Coated Tongue, Indigestion Dyspepsia, Flatulence, Heartburn Pains and Distress after Eating, and all funotional derangements of the system of nutrition g ; NOTE THIS W-ELH.,— Th-e whole system of a human being may be perfectly sound, and yet through derange- ment or weakness the i \ of the boay may perform their functions or their work sluggishly, thus giving rise to want of appetite, and a oonßequent general impover- ishnienfa 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 sen the organs of the body working harmoniously. Reason points to two essential qualities m a remedy for thie 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 che only medicine which oombines 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- turn of the food ; and where there ia no organic disease health mttst follow. This is common Bense and cannob be gainsaid. Accept no substitute that may be recom- mended to be "juat as good.' . It may be betkr—for the dWer-- because of its hotter profit, but m such an instance tho'dealer is not the one who needs help, * FROM ALL CHEMISTS & STORE- KEEPERS, 1
