WE beg to intimate that we are engaged in tho compilation of an Almanac for [ the Province of Auckland for tho yetfr 1873, whioh will be issued early in December of the present year. , ; Without reflecting on any previous productions in >! this special, field of literature, we believe that we can produce a work that will meet the wants of the residents in the city and province to an extent not yet attained by any local Almanac. It is not our wish to define the points on which our Almanac will base its claims to supersede other local Almanacs, but we feel confidence in promising that it will find its way into more households and offices, and more nearly attain to the correct ideal of a Provincial "Book" Almanac than anything of the kind that has yet been sub mitted to the public of Auckland.- a The information contained will be extensive and carefully compiled, and the literary portion of the work will be executed in a manner that will satisfy the most fastidious, while our extensive and varied assort ment of new and ornamental type, and the advantages -of our steam printing machinery will enable us to " produce a volume that for neatness and cheapness is i not likely to be equalled in the district. We can therefore confidently recommend this ■ ! Annual as affording the best advertising medium. i Although tho first year of issue the numerous agencies [ and correspondents of the Evening Star will provide a I medium for bringing the work immediately into i contact with residents in every part of the province, f and, as far as may be practicable, in other parts of the \ colony. 1 Mr. H.

Schnapps- Important Public Notice. WOLEE'S AROMATIC &CHIE^ DAM SCHNAPPS, Registered under Trade Marks" Act, 28 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 pubUc. The medical profession being the most competent in science, and responsible in society, of aU others to form a correct judgment of tbe 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 tl\e 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 frightfuUy undermines the consti tution, THE SCHIEDAM AROMATIC SCHNAPPS will be found absolutely infaUible, wMle in cases of Dropsy, Gravel, Obstructions of the Kidneys, Diseases of the Bladder, Dyspepsia, Flatulency of Age and Infancy, and General DebiUty it is recommended most em phatically by the most distinguished members of the Medicai Profession. The following reliable testimonials have been offered by the Australian Press :— Sydney Morning Herald. " In these days when alcoholic Uquors are so largely consumed, and consumers are so much in doubt whether their systems are not being graduaUy impaired by adulteration, it is weU 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 ofth scientiflc cognoscenti that we have in this article c genuine extract which, taken in moderate quantity ana 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 pubUc to denounce the too common practice of manufacturing noxious compounds as wines and spirits it seems only ust to point to this meritorious exception." Town and Country Journal. "We have in these Schnapps a 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 Ust so justly celebrated." Bell's Life in Sydney. " Experience has proved the value of Wolfe's Schie dam Aromatic Schnapps as a stimulant at once in vigorating and harmless, and it may be used with much benefit by those 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 excellence, 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 our wards. I have no hesitation in stating that I consider your Schnapps a most excellent Stimu lant and Diuretic, and of exeat value in cardiac and renal affections, and 1 beUeve they wUI 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 Oil, or solid matters: is distilled from malt only, as a sample of HoUand's gin cannot be surpassed. It may therefore be' recommended for use in Hospital and private practice as a good aromatic stimulant. — (Signed) William John son, 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. Moss & Co., Sydney, Sole Agents for Australia and New Zealand. Auckland, New Zealand. I certify that I have carefully examined and analysed WoVes 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 beUeve useful in all cases where a pure gin is indicated. I have 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.
