Hughes, corner of Shortland and Princes-streets; Mr Robinpox, Chemist, Par nell- Messrs Hill & Hudsox, Victoria-street; Mr Fallwell, Otahuhu; and Mr Samuel Fallwell, Onehunga. Testimonials can be seen on application to the Proprietor, at his residence, top of Wake field-street. . The strongest recoimnendation for this medi cine is its own intrinsic worth, as shewn by the marvellous cures effected on well-known and much respected members of our community. The best proof of this is to be found in the large number of testimonials received by the maker, thankfully acknowledging the restoration of health experienced by using this panacea. At the request of those already cursd, the proprietor now brings the "Blood Restorer" more prominently before the Public, in the sure and ooi tain hope that this utilising of the gifts of a merciful Providence will prove a great j blessing to suffering humanity, by curing long seated disease, and averting threatening sicE- The want of a reliable remedy for Rheuma tism, &c, has long been felt as one of the greatest calamities of: the age. While other moans and medicine have been proving them selves vain and delusive, this remedy has been silently and steadily unloosing the cruel fingers of disease, and freeing captive man from that deadly embrace. The people are now requested to give the Blood Restorer a fair and impartial trial. And the Praprietor would have it dis tinctly understood that the cures of Rheumatism, &c. are due entiiely to the medicine's wonder ful effect upon the blood, by its cleansing, puri fying, and"in vigoratirig system. Impurity and inactivity of the Wood is the cause of most sickness and pains. After a course of this medicine, blood vessels—which have become, as it were, choked up with unhealthy matter—become exhilirant with pure scarlet life-blood, flowing naturally along, and impart ing in its course vigour and strength to the en tire system. N.B,— Country Settlers will find in Hitchens' Blood Restorer an almost complete substitute for the Doctor. It arrewta Colds, allays Foyer», and builds up the system. Children take it with wonderful results. No household should be without it. MIRACULOUS CURE. AFTER UNAVAILING MEDICAL AID AND OTHEB REMEDIES HAD FAILED. Auckland, October, 187?."

"By a thorough knowledge of the natural : laws which govern the operations of digestiom and nutrition, and by a careful application of the fine properties of well-selected cocoa, Mr. Epps has provided our breakfast-tables with a , delicately flavoured beverage which may save | us many heavy doctors' bills.
