EDGAR & CO. PAINLESS DENTISTRY ! PAINLESS DENTISTRY ! MR. JOSEPH TYNDALL begs to an nounce to the publio of Auckland and the Colonies generally that he has procured the sole and exclusive right of sale of the far famed ALEXODYNE. This Preparation has introduced to the world an entirely new era in the science of Dentistry, which is recommend ed by the Medical Profession as being the easiest, most rapid, and really effective system for the perfectly painless accomplishment of everything having reference to Surgical Den tistry. Beyond the utter impossibility of pain during the operation, the following desiterata are obtained by the use of Artificial Teeth :— economy, durability, masticating power, artic ulation, and natural appearance. Being in destructable, they nev^r change in color o decay; by their elasticity and unerring fit they excef in comfort from the power rendered to support useless or decayed teeth even over the most tender and sensitive gums, and thus the wearer speedily becomes oblivious to the fate that the comforts supp ied by art anil science have overcome the d-fL-ience* of nature. Note the address—Mr. JOSEPH TYNDALL, Surgeon Dentist, top of Shordand-street.

$__f _ ''ejj^ PREPARED by the PROPRIETOR ! speedy relief, and r_dica cur ot diseases, of the LIVER, GOUT, SCIATICA, RHETJMA. I TISM, NEURALGIA, TICDOLORETJX INDIGESTION, AND FLATULENCE' DIARRHOEA AND DYSENTERY, ' ! from vegetable remedies, whose healing v_» tues were revealed to him by the wish m. learned men of India. The Proprietor carefully watched and noUd tbe symptoms produced by these herbs, ».d eventually perfected the East-Indian Remedies, which he has administered with such un. varying success that thousands of persons, i_ all grades of society, have been radically CUltt of the above painful diseases, and have «. pressed their grateful thanks in ardent lv. guage for the cure effected by these medicinei, Many hundreds of persons greviously af flicted by Rheumatism and Swollen Joints overcome by diseases, worn out with many years of suffering, racked with pain, unable t* sleep by night, or .'work during the day—to whom life was a burden, and from whom era hope had departed, have been thoroughly cured by these remedies, and are now living witnesses of their healing virtues. The Remedies differ from all other modi cines in this most important particular, they don't weaken the patient, undermine the con stitution, or introduce into the system thon mineral poisons so pernicious to th, blood.— On the contrary, they relieve at once, finally era icate pain, subdue the torture of Rheumatism, Sciatica, and Neuralgia, and build up naturally the organs to func tional vigour. * , r Melbourne, October 7, 186*. Mt Deae Sic, —In reply to your request I gratefully forward you a further certifieaU of the value of your medicine, in cases which have fallen to my own knowledge. I have been suffering from Rheumatism constantly for five years ;- the result of many wet jackets in Hobson's Bay, before I put myself under your treatment. In the history of that time there are all sorts of horrible and some comical reminiscencci. PaiLful of medicine ; baths of sulphur; b_t_i of brine ; baths medicated; and baths galvanic. Out of the one the patient came smelling like a lucifer match: out of another, stewed to an uncommon limpness, or quivering ]_.• a galvanised frog. You may be sure that I spent a good deal of coin in making the trial of the above so called remedies ; none of them, however, gars me permanent relief; but yours, in a few days after I had taken it, destroyed the racking pain aud gave a general tone to the health. Many of my friends, especially the medical ones, thought bad results would follow; but more than seven years have now gone by and I have had no relapse. I have since sent scores of people to you of all classes, and hay c never heard of your fail ing to relieve them. Accept my congratulations,that you hays, successfully established the value of the mcdi* cines, despite all obstacles.—Yours very faith fully, JOHN J. SHILLINGLAW, Government Shipping Master. From C. P. HACKETT, Esq., Police Mi_i»' trate, Melbourne. A widely-known 1-4 case. Cured in about a fortnight. ' Police Office, Melbourne, January 25,1867. Deae Sib, —Four years have now elapsed since, at the instance of my friend Mr. John Shillinglaw, (whom you had so miraculously cured of long-standing Rheumatism) I ifm induced to place myself in your hands, as I was at that time, as for two years previously, in bad health. I had at various times, vcmttf of the leading medical men in Melbourne, aad had also tried the effects of change of air ia New Zealand and Van Dieman's Land, but without deriving any advantage; yet witlu a fortnight of taking the first glass of JOVI medicine I was thoroughly cured, and «__* that time I have been free from any return of my ailments.
