THE CHRISTCHURCH HOSPITAL

SEVERE CRITICISM BY THE INSPECTOR.

United Press Association—By Electric Telegraph. Wblltkgton, August 30 la hia annual report, the Inspector (Dr. MacGregor) s&ya of the Cbristchurch Hos pital: The hope of attaining contiuued peace m the administration of this hospital seems still a long way off. It affords a signal example of the turmoil that m some centres seems to be inseparable from popular control of such institutions The people of Chrirohurch, ib seems to me, take fits of furious f iult-finding, and then sink into a state ot lathargip neglect as to the persona into whoae hands they commit the control. Perhaps the moat glaring instance of bung ling that has come under my observation is the history of the fine new Hyman Marks pavilion. In June last I wrote to the Boaid pointing out that the plastering all over was ■o full of myriad* of cracks that no surgeon would dare to use any part of it for hospital purposes. It ha* stood useless ever since, though for years the Board w»* clamouring for fresh accommodation. Though any per ■on by simple inspection could not fail to tee that the whole must be stripped, yet at my last visit they were actually putting up an electric lighting apparatus ever this plaster. Dr For and the Uhairmaa were at daggers d>awo, and I felt very despondent as regards the hospital government. Yet the medical work was well done, and the diioioline admirable.

NEW LIVER PILLS. (Sugar Coated.) A WONDERFUL and extraordinary combination of concentrated medicine. The viotorieiof Science—Electric Telegraphs, Steam and Printing — revolutionised the whole system of the globe, and made man kind wise? and better. So, although there ara countless Pills used for disease, and claiming much as bo tbeir merit, the remark abl« discovery of Dr. Haydock has eclipsed them all, and has founded a NBW MEDICAL SYSTEM. The Doctors, whose vc*~ doaea of four or five pilU, enfeeble the stomich and paradei tho bowels, must give way to the man who restores health and appetite with ©no or two of his extraordinary Vegetable Pills. One or two of Da. Haydook's New Livib Pills suffices to place the stomaoh m perfect order, creates an appetite, and renders the spirit light and buoyant. If the Liver Is affected its functions are restored, and the Nervous Syntom is enfeebled, it is invigorated and sustained. SYMPTOMS OF BILIOUSNESS. 1 The patient complains of a fulineia of the stomtch. 2 Distension of the bowels by wind. 3 Heartburn 4 A fetling of weariness, sleepiness after meals 5 A bad taste m the mouth and furred tongue 6 Constipation, with aa occasional diarrhoea 7 Headache m front of head 8 Depression of spirits grsat lassitude All of tho wbove symptoms 'go to show functional derangement' of the Liver ; and now comes the great importance of any error made as to the condition of the patient. He should immediately provide himself with a Liver Stimulant, the most common form of which is a Pill. Daily experience shows that this, when the Pill is compounded properly, is the readiest mode of inciting and promot ing the aotion of the Liver, and run glwaya be relied on. J hap deyotei many years of my lib m compounding a Pill, that will act) readily and systematically as a Bilious Remedy. Ido not believe m great purgs-' tives, and therefore have made a Pill, one of which is an active end thorough dose. I have called it Haydcck's New Liy£ir Pill. They are tha true grainy and essence of health, and the greatest blessing that Science has giten to the world. For Nervous Prostration, Weakness, General Lmsitude, W»nt of Appetite and Siok Headache, Dr. Haydock'a New Liver Pilla will be found an Effectual Remedy. Each vhl contains twenty Pilla: Price Twenty-five Cents. For sale by all Druggists Any sceptic can have a vial of Pilla 3ENf giM free on receipt of his name and. address, for a trial. Send a postal card for copy of pamphlet— " The Liver and its Mystery. 3' It furnishes valuable Information to all.
