PAINLESS DENTISTRY ! MR.. JOSEPH TYNDALL begs to an nounce to the public of Auckland and the Colonies generally that he has procured the sole and exclusive right of sale of the far latnerl ALEXODYNK. This Preparation has introduced to the world an entirely new era in the science of I'entistry, wh eh is recommend ed by the Medic 1 Profession as being the easiest, most rapid, and really effective system lor the perfectly painless accomplishment of everything having reference to Surgical Den tistry. Beyond the utter impossibility of p iin during the operation, the following desiterata .ire obtained by the use of Artificial Teeth : — economy, durability, masticating power, artic ulation, and natural appearance. Being in ilcstruciable, they vev r change in color o decay; by their elasticity and unerring fit they excel in comfort from the power rendered to support useless or decayed teeth even over the most tender and sensitive gunis, and thus the wearer speedily becomes oblivious to the fate that the comforts supplied by art and science have overcome the deficiences of nature.

lilt PREPARED by the PROPRIETOR I speedy relief, and radica cur o! diseases, of the LIVER, GOUT, SCIATICA, RHEUMA TISM, NEURALGIA, TIODOLOREUX INDIGESTION, AND FLATULENCE DIARRHOEA AND DYSENTERY, * from vegetable remedies, whose healing tu> tues were revealed to him by the vast and < leabned men of India. Tlie Proprietor carefully watched and noted the symptoms produced by these herbs, and eventually perfected the ~.' I East-Indian Hemedies, wliich he has administered with such un. varying success that thousands of persons, in all grades of society, have been radically cuWfl of the above painful diseases, and have ex« pressed their grateful thanks in ardent lan* guage for the cure effected by these medicines. 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 to sleep by night, or .work during the day—to whom life was a burden, and from whom even hope had departed, havo been thoroughly cured by these remedies, and are now living witnesses of their healing virtues. The Remedies differ from all other medi cines in this most important particular, they don't weaken the patienfc, undermine the eon- j stitution, or introduce into the 'system those mineral poisons so pernicious to tha bloody- 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 funo-, tional vigour. Melbourne, October 7, 1868. My Deae Sib, —In reply to your request I gratefully forward you a" further certificate 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 histery of that time there are all sort* of horrible and some comical reminiscenced. Paihful of medicine ; baths of sulphur; baths of brine ; baths medicated ; and baths galvaiiiof Out of the one the patient came smelling like a lucifer match : out of another, stewed to an uncommon limpness, or quivering like a galvanised frog. You may be sure that I spent a good deil of coin in making the trial of the above so* called remedies; none of them, however, gave me permanent relief; but pours, 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 ha\ o never heard of your fail ing to relieve them. Accept my congratulations that you have successfully established the value of the medi cines, despite all obstacles.—Yours very faith fully, JOHN J. SHILLINGLAW, Government Shipping Master, From C. P. HACKETT, Esq., Police Magis trate, Melbourne. A widely-known bad case. Cured in about a fortnight. Police Office, Melbourne, January 25,1867. Dbab Sic, —Four years have now elapsed since, at the instance of niy friend Mr. John Shillinglaw, (whom you had so miraculously cured of long-standing Rheumatism) I was 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, many of the leading medical men in Melbourne, and had also tried the effects of change of air in New Zealand and Van Diemau's Land, but without deriving any advantage; yet within a fortnight of taking the first glass of jrour medicine I was thoroughly cured, and sinM that time I have been free from any return of my ailments.
