QTEEDMAN’S SOOTHING POWDERS V-) for CHILDREN CUTTING TEETH. CAUTICN TO PURCHASERS. The value of this well-known Family Medi cine has been largely tested in all parts of the world, and by all grades of society, for upwards of FIFTY YEARS. Its well-earned exten sive sale has induced SPURIOUS IMITA TIONS, some of which in OUTWaRL APPEARANCE so closely resemble the ori ginal as to have deceived many purchasers. The proprietor therefore feels it due to the public to give a special caution against the use of SUCH IMITATIONS. Purchasers are therefore requested carefully to observe the 1 four following distinctive characteristics, without which none -.re genuine : 1st —In every case the words JOHN STEEDMAN, CHEMIST, WALWORTH, SURREY, are engraved or. the Government Stamp affixed to each packet. 2nd—Each Single Pow has directions for the dose, and the words, John Steedman, Chemist, Walworth, Surrey, printed thereon. 3rd —The name, Steedman, is always spelt with two EE’s. 4th —The manufacture is carried on solely at Walworth, Surrey. Sold in Packets by all Chemists and Medi cine Vendors. Sold by Kempthorne, Prosser and Co., Auckland. 490 GRATEFUL—COMFORTIN' G. BREAKFAST COCOA. “By a thorough knowledge of the natural laws which govern the operations of digestion and nutrition, and by a careful application of .he fine properties of well selected cocoa, Mr. Epps has provided our breakfast table-j with f delicately-flavoured beverage which may save us many heavy doctors’ bills. It is by the judi cious use of such articles of diet, that a constitu tion may be gradually built up until strong enough to resist every tendency to disease. Hundreds of subtle maladies are floating arcund us, ready to attack wherever there is a weak point. We may escape many a fata shaft by keeping ourselves well fortified with pure blood and a properly nourished frame.”— The Cizt. Service Gazette.
