DR BRIGHT'S PHOSPHODYNE, A Chemical Preparation of Phosphorous, with the Vegetable Alkaloids [Qutnia, Cypripeden, Xanthoxylin, &c, Discovered, introduced, and extensively prescribed by Charles Leslie Bright,M.D.,Resident Surgeon, to St. Mary's Hospital London. . ' j This Phosphatic combination is pronounced by the most eminent members of the Medical Profession to be unequalled for its power in replenishing the vitality, of the body, by its supplying all the essential con stituents ofthe blood and nerve substance, and for developing all the powers and functions of the system to the highest degree. It is agreeable to the palate and innocent in its action, while retaining all its extraordinary properties, and as a specific surpassing all the known therapeutic agents of the day for the speedy and permanent cure of - Nervous Prostration Trembling of the hands and I •Liver Complaints limbs Palpitation of the heart Impaired nutrition Dizziness Mental and physical de- Noises in the head and ears pression Loss of energy and appetite Consumption (in its mci Hypochondria pient or first stages only) Female complaints Eruptions of the skin General debility Impaired sight and memory Indigestion Nervous fancies Flatulence Impoverished fancies incapacity for study or Impoverished blood • business Nervous debility in all its Sick headache stages [Lassitude Premature decline Shortness of the breath and all morbid conditions of the system, arising from whatever cause. The action of the Phosphodyne is twofold—on the one, hand increasing the principle which constitutes nervous energy,- and on the other, the most powerful blood and flesh generating agent known ; therefore, a marvellous medicine for re novating impaired and broken-down constitutions. It quickly improves the function of assimilation to such a degree that where for years an emaciated, anxious, | cadaverous, and semi-vital condition has existed, the ftesh will rapidly increase in quantity and firmness, and the whole system return to a state of robust health. j The Phosphodyne acts electrically upon the organi sation ; for instance, it assists nature to generate that human electricity which renews and rebuilds the the osseous, muscular, nervous, membranous, and organic systems. ' It operates on the system without exciting care or thought upon the individual as_ to the process. It moves the lungs, liver, heart, kidneys, stomach, and intestines, with a harmony, vigour, yet unparalleled in medicine, i The Phosphodydne gives back to the human struc ture, in suitable form, the phosphoric or animating Element of life which has been wasted, and exerts an important influence directly on the spinal marrow and nervous system, of a nutritive, tonic, and invigorating character ; maintaining that buoyant energy of the brain and muscular system which renders the mind cheerful,'brilliant, and energetic, entirely overcoming that' dull, inactive and sluggish disposition which many persons experience in all their actions. ; The beheflcial'effects of the Phosphodyne are fre quently shown from the first day of its administration by a remarkable increase of nervous power, with a feeling of vigour and comfort to which the patient has long been unaccustomed. Digestion is improved ; the appetite increases wonderfully; the bowels become regular;' the eyes brighter; . the skin clear and healthy ; and the hair acquires strength, showing the importance of the action of the Phosphodyne on the organs of nutrition. Finally, the Phosphodyne maintains a certain degree of activity in the previously debilitated nervous system'; its use enables all delibilated organs to return to then-sound State and perform their natural func tions. Persons suffering from Nervous Debility-;' or any of the hundred symptoms which this distressing disease assumes, may rest assured of an effectual and even speedy cure by the. judicious use of this most invaluable remedy. ~ ■• ]-; f ■ DR. BRIGHT'S PHOSPHODYNE Is sold only in cases at £1 Is, containing two bottles; and £2 2s, containing five bottles. Also in family cases at £5, containing sixteen bottles. To be had of all Chemists and Up - Country Storekeepers throughout the Colonies. FULL DIRECTIONS FOR USE IN THE ENGLISH, • FRENCH, AND GERM AM LANGUAGES AC COMPANY EACH CASE. ', SELECT MEDICAL OPINIONS. ',- ~,-,-,, , Sir Charles Locock, Physical Accoucheur to'Hdr Jlajesty the Queen, stated at a meeting of the Royal Medical and Chirurgical, Society that in thirteen cases ©f deDility and nervous prostration he' had effected permanent cures by the use of Dr. Bright's Phosphodyne. Sir Wm. Ferguson, Bart., F.R.S., Surgeon to Her Majesty the Queen; says:—"l have repeatedly pre*' scribed Dr. Bright's Phosphodyne, and found it an agreeable and beneflQial remedy. I. have but one ob jection regarding it, and that is the elaborate process required in the preparation will not allow of the retail prices being within the reach of all classes." Dr. Lancaster, the eminent Coroner, says:—"Dr Bright'S Phosphodyne is calculated to entirely super sede iron, mercury, sarsaparilla, quinine, and cod-liver oil.". , '.:' '.. Dr. R. Quain, F.R.C.P., Physician to the Hospital for Consumption, Brompton, remarks:—" It cannot be doubted that this'Phosphatic preparation will'hence-' forth rank foremost in therapeutics ; it generates all the important elements of the human frame, the peculiar character of this substance fitting it for vital uses." fi , Sir T. Lawrence says:—" I have found Dr. Bright's Phosphodyne an excellent remedy in skin diseases. I presuhie it is by oxydisation." Professor Syme says : —" The effects .of the Phos phodyne in obstinate cases of disease are as astonish ing as perplexing." Dr. Hanfleld Jones, F.R.C.P., F.R.S.. Physician to St. Mary's Hospital, says, in Athropy and General Debility Phosphodyne is a most admirable remedy ; it invigorates the nutritive functions, and increases the vital energy—"it not only acts as an absorbent," but retards or repairs the waste of tissue, and restores the nutritive functions to their normal condition. The Lancet considers. the_ Phosphodyne one of the most important contributions made to Materia Medica during the last century. Pamphlets containing Testimonials may be obtained from all Chemists and Up-Country Storekeepers. BST Caution. —Be particular to ask for Dr. -Bright's Phosphodyne, as Imitations are abroad ; and avoid purchasing Single Bottles, the Genuine Article being sold in cases only. ~ ._ , | Wholesale Agents for New Zealand :— JtEMPTHORNE, PROSSER,, & Co. j DUNEDIN. i '

TTOLLOWAT'S OINTMENT Scorbutic Eruptions, as Sore Heads and Scrofulous Swellings.-If this powerful Ointment be well rubbe a into the parts affected all skin disease will be speedily overcome. It acts not by repression, but repulsion. It enters the system as salt enters meat, and operates not locally only, but constitutionally purifying the whole system, neutralizing all depraved, hiimoure, and effecting a radical and complete cure. Thei-US should be taken as an auxiliary to the Ointment, a_ ! they are so prepared as to act in unison with it, facilitating and confirming the conquest of the disease, Diptheria Ulcerated Sore Throat and Qumscy.—Th* above complaints have for twenty years been treated with Holloway's Ointment and Pills with penecJ success. The cures have been so remarkable, speedy,, and numerous, that these often fatal diseases are mora easily cured by these medicines than even the common sore tnroat, If taken in time. , . . The Kidneys, Stone and Gh-avel.—ln these complaints the ''Ointment almost acts like a charm, pro viding it is very effectually nibbed over the. regions of the kidneys, which it will penetrate and give almost immediate relief, while the Pills should.' be I taken according to the printed directions, when the most extraordinary cures may bt\ effected by this means. Bad Legs, Bad Breads, Scrofulous Sores, ana Glandular Swellings.—ln such cases the Ointment, operates surely and with a rapidity that resembles magic. It should be rubbed into the parts affected after they have been fomented with lukewarm water- Thepurifying'and curative powers of this marvellous .unguent have neve rfailed. .An old sore, wound, or ulcer always yields to its influence, and in cases of baa breasts, or milk fevers, its action, is wonderful, i Glandular swellings may soon be reduced by following the printed directions.
