Woolston, August 10, 1897. To Spencer Vincent, Christchurch, Dear Sir, — For Borne time past I havo been suffering from a most painful cough. I had quite given up hope of its ever leaving me, at least or the remainder of the winter and feared that it had become chronic' seeing that other remedies failed to give me relief, muoh less cure. 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 i and I may say that I hadn't an atom of faith m its curative properties, but felt that I must take something to ease the pain I drank contents of first bottle ve.ry freely and am thankful to say m less than twelve hours I was wholly free from cough, E.

Biliousness, Bilious Headache," Dizzinesß, Coßtiveness, Sour Stomach, Loss of Appetite, Coated Tongue, Indigestion Dyspepsia, Flatulence, Heartburn, Pains and Distress after Eating, and all 1 functional derangements of the of nutrition. JVOIE THIS WELL,- The whole system of a human being may be perfectly sound, and yet through derange- ment or weakness the orf. Ocs 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 sco 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 aotion 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 must follow* This is common cense 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 tho dealer is not the one who needs help.



A VICTIM OF Functional Disease. Alivnm NEVER fails any one m /iIdXUIII 6Uc h a predicament. To Eufforera from Sick Headache, Dyspepsia, Biliousness and Constipation ibis "A friend iv 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 cure lasts. No care is required while using it. It does not interfere with the diet,, habits or occu- pation, and produoea no inconvenience 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 public m a popular form.
