It is an indisputable fact that the advantages of this perfectly pure beverago have now rendered it the most largely consumed of any imported spirit, the demand throughout tke whole of the Australian colonies almost exceeding tho capability of the proprietor to •upply. AVolfe's Schnapps is now occupying the place held in past years by inferior brands of geneva, the medical profession testifying to its excellence over.these and other adulterated spirits, including French brandy, in no ess than .TEN THOUSAND LETTERS, which are m the possession of the manufacturer, all certifying to its perfect purity aid marked superiority over every other stinralant as a diuretic, tonic, and restorative. The Resident Physician of the Sydney Infirmary gays :—" I have no hesitation in stating that I consider your Schnapps a most excellent stimulant and diuretic." The Government Analytical Chemist, Melbourne, Bft^s :^As a sample of hollands gin, I do not think it can be surpassed. _ It may be recommended for use 1; X hospital and private practice as a good aromatic /<raulant."

Miscellaneous. ' CjE¥ING MAC HIN E S *>-}. MADE BIT THE BRITANNIA COMPANY, COLCHESTER, ENGLAND, combine the best parts of the best Machines (avoiding their defects) with some reoent .special improve ments, which no other Machine possesses. Every make of Madrino, however far removed from excellence, professes to be better than any other. The task of selecting a Sewing Machine is therefore rather a difficult one, especially if the purchaser lias no knowledge of machines, and has no other guide than the representation of various dealers. Many people convinced of the advantage to be derived from using a Machine for needlework do not yet possess one because among so many they are unable to satisfy themselves as to which make is the b6st. As a practical man and \n Engineer allow mo to point out some of tho advantages of these Machines. They will do all that any other Machine will, and <lo it hcttcr, including Hemming, Quilting, Felling, Cording, Binding, Braiding. Stitching, &c, &c , with a perfect stitch alike on both sides. They are fitted with an improved break, which prevents the Machine turning tho wrong way, and so entangling and breaking tho thread. They make less noise than most Machines, and is the nearest possible approach to noiseless. They are very simple, and will run for years without costing a shilling- for repairs. Every Machine ia Warranted. Machines let out on hire, the payment for which goes towards the purchase. Machines of other makers taken in ex change. Repairs properly done.

Dr. L. L. .Smith invites sufferers to consult him, as he has no hesitation in stating' that no medical: man, ■ either here, Gr in England, has had' the- opportunities for practice and extraordinary experience which he j has had. Therefore, those who really desire to be treated by one who is at the head of his profession in this branch of medical practice sh^uld'lose no time in .seeking his advice.
