A VICTIM OF Functional Disease, A 1 ayi i m NEVER fails any ons m i-ldaXUm such a predicament. To sufferers from Sick Headache, Dyspepsia, Biliousness and Constipation it is •* A friend in'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. It< secondary effects are marvellous. Many persons afflicted with oopstipation have testi fied not only to its immediate relieving Sroperties but to the faot that the cure lasts. [o care is required while using it. It does not interfere with the diet, habits or occu pation, and produces no inconvenience m its action. It is at ones a laxative, an appetiser, and a stimulating tonic, prepared scientifically, and endorsed by the Press at i the most valuable medicine that has ever been offered to to the public m a popular form. ALAXUM ™< Biliousness, Bilious Headaohe, Dizziness Ooßtiveneßs, Sour Stomach, Loss of Appetite, Coated Tongue, Indigestion, Dyspepsia; Flatulence, Heartburn, i Paine and Distress after Eating, and all functional derangements of the system of nutrition NOTE THIS WELL- The whole system of a human being may be perfectly sound, and yet through derange meabcr-weakaess-tho organs of the body 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 arc really only m need of a remedy to ses tho organs of the body working harmoniously. ■Reason points to two essential qualities m s> 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 ail effete matter and oxoiting them to activity. The system then receives nutri tion and new life from the prcper assimila tion of the food; and where there is no organic disease health must follow* This 1b 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 instence the dealer is not the one who needs help. FROM ALL CHEMISTS & STORE. KEEPERS, PRICE 2s 6d A. CONUNDKUM. TT^HY IS BENJAMIN GUM like a Hard-boiled Egg ?—Becauße it is HARD TO BEAT THAT precisely expresses the opinion of all who have used Benjamin Gum* There is no Cough Medicine 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 catchpenny Quack Medicines It is made by a fully qualified Chemist, who knows his business* It contains the same Ingredients as Fbiars' Balsam, which was first made by the Monks and Friars of Europe m the days of old. Friars' Balsam has been used for six hundred years for healing cuts' and wounds. Kpenoer Vincent's Qenjcunin Gum is a Compound of this Balsam, with other Ingredients, prepared by a special! process for internal use. Are you troubled with you* Chest T BENJAMI *f GUM Will heal the Lungs. It will nob heal them at once. It must be used for some time, and used regularly m old-standing cases. Have you a Cold m the Head or a Harsh Cough BENJAMIN GUM Will Heal the inflammation of the threat and passages of the noee as Friars' Balsam heals outs. Coughs disappear with thl inflammation which causes them. BENJAMIN GUM Is not a chewing gum, bub a very palatable, liquid. The bottle contains almost twine as much as any other Cough Mixture m the market. It is the KING OF ALL. PRICE; Is Qd and 2s 6d I Chemists and Stores.

A sample taken from a one pound tin m use was analysed and found to contain strong traces of lunrtfttic art <), the presence of which is caused by the uee of spirits of sa'ts m welding the parts of tin together. The analyst warns consumers that tea packed m small tins, owing to its very absorbent nature, is very liable to become impregnated with this acid, and therefore dangerous for human co'nsumptioni and advises that the very safest package to purchase 13 that packed m lead with an inside lining of vegetable parchment.

In order that these crude oils may not be taken, OUR PURE VOLATILE EUCALYPTI EXTRACT, which is recognised by the medical division of the Prussian Government to be of perfectly pure origin, aa per information forwarded to aa through the Consul at Melbourne, March 2, 1878, we ibate:— «*» It is proved by tests by the Medical Clinics of the Universities at Bonn and Greifsvrald, Prussia, and reported by Dr. Schulss.Professor of Parmacology, at Bon, and Professor Dr; Mossier, Director of the Medical Clinics at Greifswaid, that only products that are saturated with oxygen and freed of acids, j resinous and other substances, adherent to primary distillation, will develope the | sanative qualities proper to the planti All 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 internal medicament. 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 most freely through its surplus oxygen. 2 By their alcoholic thin and mobile appear ance being reduced m specific density through the presenoe of acids. 3 By their taste, the result of the oontraoting tendency of resins and tennates. If these crude oils, so-called eucalypti extracts, are applied by mistake m cases of oroup, bronchitis, diphtheria, internal mflamations, dysentery, etc., the con sequences are most appalling.
