VENETIAN HOUSE, Shortland street, Auckland. Important Public Notice. WOLEE'S AROMATIC &CHIE DAM SCHNAPPS, Registered under ■ Trade Marks" Act, 23 Vie. No 9. The extraordinary Sale, wide-spread popularity, and wonderful results of Wolfe's Schnapps prove in disputably that the introduction of a perfectly pure beverage is appreciated by the Australian public. The medical profession being the most competent in science and responsible in society, of all others to form a correct judgment of the medicinal and salutary properties of an article of this kind would not give their unsolicited testimonials in special commendation of Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps were it a preparation of doubtful or even ordinary quality, nor unless they had proved its superior excellence and value In their own practice or experience. As a means of preventing the disagreeable and often dangerous effects produced upon the stomach and bowels by a change of water, or in the use of water containing an infusion of decayed vegetable matter, which so often produces that obstinate form of Fever and Ague which so frightfully undermines the consti tUtloJTJH_ SCHIEDAM AROMATIC SCHNAPPS will be found absolutely infallible, while in cases of Dropsy Gravel, Obstructions of the Kidneys, Diseases of the Bladder, Dyspepsia, Flatulency of Age and Infancy, and General Debility it is recommended most em phatically by the most distinguished members of the Medical Profession. % The following reliable testimonials have been ottered by the Australian Press:— Sydney Morning Herald. . "In these days when alcoholic liquors are so largely consumed, and consumers are so much in doubt whether, their systems are not being gradually impaired by adulteration, it is well that one at least of the popular beverages of the period is reliable as pure —that is Wolfe's Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps. It is some thing 'to be assured by physicians and other of the scientific cognoscenti: that we have in this article a genuine extract which, taken in moderate quantity and under ordinarily healthy conditions of body, affords a beneficial stimulus to the animal functions ; and, even if taken in excess, leaves but a minimum of the in evitable evils of abuse. "If it is necessary in the interests of the public to denounce the too common practice of manufacturing noxious compounds as wines and spirits it seems only ust to point to this meritorious exception." Toun and Country Journal. "We have in these Schnappsa total absence of fusil oil which, combined with the great purity of all in gredients whence it is extracted, accounts for the unu sually healthy and invigorating quality which have already rendered this latest addition to the alcoholic st so justly celebrated." • Bell's Life in Sydney. " Experience has proved the value of Wolfe's Schie dam Aromatic Schnapps as a stimulant at ?nc<= in vigorating and harmless, and it may be used with much benefit by tl\oo<» requiring -a. pleasant and effective remedy. The medical officers of the Sydney Infirmary have tested its merits practically in various cases, and bear willing testimony to its exceUence, and we, there fore, feel no difficulty in recommending to the notice of our readers the Aromatic Schnapps, not only as a pure and agreeable occasional beverage, but, what is of far more importance/as a really pleasant medicine. Important Testimonials. " Sydney Infirmary, Nov. 11, 1870. "Ibeg to state that I have, with the permission of Honorary Physicians, given your Schnapps to several patients in cur wards. I have no hesitation in stating that I consider your Schnapps a most excellent Stimu lant etitrt Diuretic, and of great value in cardiac and renal affections, and 1 believe they will eventually supersede all other Spirits in the treatment of the above complaints. LITTON FORBES, Resident Physician. „ ■ ' Government Analytical Laboratory, Melbourne, March 15,1872. I have examined a sample of Wolfe's Aromatic Schiedam Schnapps submitted to me for analysis. From the examination I conclude that this spirit is perfectly free from Fusil OU, or solid matters; is distilled from malt only, as a sample of Holland's gin cannot be surpassed. It may therefore be recommended for use in Hospital and private practice as a good aromatiG stimulant. — (Signed) William Johnson, Govern ment Analytical Chemist. We have appointed Messrs L. D. Nathan & Co. Sub-Agents for the sale of Wolfe's Schnapps in Auck land, New Zealand.—M. Moats & Co., Sydney, Sole Agents for Australia and New Zealand. .;.-,:■ Auckland, New Zealand. I certify that I have carefully examined and analysed WoUe's Aromatic Schnapps, and find the sample given me to be a very strong, pure spirit, free from adultera tion or any deleterious or any offensive matter, and I believe useful in all cases where a pure gin is indicated. I hate also submitted the sample to patients who have been accustomed to this description of stimulant, and it has been universally liked and approved of as a strong, pure, wholesome spirit, and as such I can re commend it. — Charles F.

BROWN, BARRETT & CO. Auckland, March 10.1872. Prospectus- PROSPECTUS OF THE Auckland and North Shore Steam Ferry Company (Limited). Registered under the Joint Stock Companies Acts. CAPITAL : £5000, in 5000 Shares of £1 EAcn) Provisional Directors : John Leek (Chairman)] W. H. Kissling John Copland G. Sibbin R. T. Ebborn G. M. Reed Bankers: Bank of New Zealand Solicitor : W. L. Rees Hon. Secretary pro tkm : G. M. Reed. THE Promoters of the Auckland and North Shore Steam Ferry Company are impressed with the conviction generally shared by the community, that the Ferry Service with the North Shore might be conducted in a manner more con ducive to the public convenience. They believe that if that convenience were more consulted not only would the North Shore be far more availed of as a place for the healthful recreation of citizens, and become the most favourite of all the suburbs as a place of residence, but such conduct of the Ferry Service so greatly increase the traffic as to best subserve the interests of tho ferry steamers. It is the object of the Steam Ferry Company to primarily consult the convenience and comfort of tho public, to endeavour to popularise the North Shore as a place for public recreation and for residence, and through these means to increase the traffic, and the consequent dividends of Shareholders in the Company. I With this object in view it is proposed to build immediately Two Ferry Steamers of a character for' speed and convenience such as cannot fail to command the traffic. In order to make the basis of the Company as popular as possible the shares have been fixed at a low price, and it is the intention of the promoters to reserve a certain number of shares for the residents on the North Shoro, in the Lake District, i. and at the Wade, and to use all efforts to induce every .such resident to become interested in the Company even though in. the smallest amount. Almost the half of the total capital required having been subscribed before the proposal was brought before the public, is an indication that no difficulty is experienced in the mere obtaining of Share holders, but the. promoters chiefly aim at enlisting the interest of the many in preference to the capital of the few. On the most reliable data extending over the past traffic of both the winter and the summer months the promoters of this Company are in a position to give the assurance that this project is one of the safest, and most promising that have been submitted to the public, and they have every confi dence that the traffic of the past is not one-fourth part of what the traffic will become wheh the ferry service will be properly conducted, and in boats adapted to the trade. It is expected that one, if not both of the boats will be ready by the Ist of December. One shilling per share to be paid on making application ; one and sixpence on allotment; and the balance in calls of two and sixpence each to be haid as the building of the boats proceeds. Forms of application for shares can be. obtained from the Honorary Secretary,
