"KSI THE MOST POPULAR MEDICINES EVER YBT INTKODUOKD INTO NiiVV ZEALAND, i 4 In consequence of their proving to bo what ia stated of them, and all fulsome puffiin& or ex travagant exaggerations about them being care fully avoided. Their worth and merit have secured for them in every part of New Zealand the cor.lidonee- of tiie public. They have cured long-stanoing cases of sickness,'and TESTIMON [ALS similar to those given below are being received from all parts of the Colony by the Proprietor :— •'Kensington, Danedin, Ist March, 1876.—Sir, Having occasion to use your Aperient Mixture, and having derived much benefit therefrom, I have much pleasure in testifying to its merits, and in recommending it to others.—(Signed), A. Jamieson." "Pier Hotel, Dunedin, 2Gth May, 1876.—Sir,— Having been much benefltt.ed by the use of your Indian Medicine, I have great pleasure in adding my testimony as to its efficacy, and can recom mend others'to try it. Some of my friends, rJIO have also been using these medicines, speak very favourably of them, and have received much benefit from their use.—(Signed), Ophklia "Port Chalmers, New Zealand, 3rd July, 1576. Sir,—l think it my duty to state that your Ghol lah's Rheumatism Mixture has proved in my case to be all that you have represented it to be ; and for the sake of those who may be suffering the misery and torture of severe Rheumatism, such as I endured previous to- taking your in valuable medicine I beg to stale that I had been suffering the most excruciating agony from severe Hheumatism for over two years. I could not rest at night. My appetite was gone, my general health shattered, and the pains through out my limbs and loins were constant and almost insupportable. I was induced to try your Rheu matism Mixture, and foundmyself getting better after taking three bottles of it. I continued taking the medicine for about six weeks, and became perfectly restored tb health, being per fectly cured of all pain or symptoms of Rheuma tism. My appetite is excellent, and I sleep well at night.—Signed), Fkeu. Williams." "Dunedin, 10th July, 1376.-Sir,—l have plea sure in stating, for the benefit of others, that I have derived the most unexpected good results from the use of Ghollah's Rheumatism Mixture. I had been suffering froin-very severe rheumatic attack-; Tor about 15 years, accompanied hy most a-onising pains in my limbs and loins, through which my'rest wag much disturbed at night, my appetite v-^ry imperfect, and my general health altogether impaired. I am happy to state ttuvfc I am row free from the pains I baa experienced for so many years. I can sleep well at night, my appetite and general health are much improved, and I can attend to my business and houso duties. ■ This happy change has been brought about by the U3O of "your R>ieun;a!ism Mixture for about two months.—l am. Sir, yours gratefully.— (Signed), S. PICKETT." . "ijunedin, 31st August, 1876.—Sir,— Having taken your Ghollah's Rheumatic Mixture for someconfj'dcLubte time, ;ind having been cpnv oletsly cured by its use, of the very severe rheu matic g&ttfc from which 1 had suffered most severely for the l^ii ten years, I can bear testi mony to its most extra-ordinary curatic powers. I am now free from all pain, and well m my health, and have the free use of my hands and feet which I had not previous to taking your medicine. I think it right to state, for toe bane fit of others suffering the tortures that I en.-Lured for thr>. period above -stated, that I attribute my restoration to health and freedom from paui entirely to the use of your invaluable medicine. I can stronfly recommend it those sufferingirom rheumatism "or gout.—(Signed), JoiIX GftiKFKX, J.P."

i ; I pOMMON SENSE AND COMFORT. ! Gtas Stoves. COOKING by GAS is Easier, Cheaper, and far more Economical than by Wood or Coal, and suitable for the Cottage, Mansion, or Hotel. The superiQiViiavour, the retention of the animal juices in the Moat, and the prevention of waste, are plainly shown on the first trial. The loss of weight by GAS COOKING is reduced to about one-fourth of that of the com mon modes of Roasting or Baking, for whereas a.Joint of Moat of eleven pounds losesfncvcr less than three pounds at an Open Fire, or four pounds in an Oven, the loss by the Gas Roaster is enly one pound. If you have common sense, buy one. If you. want, comfort, buy one. AS STOVES, for Boiling, Steaming, Broil ng. Stewing, or Frying, from 3s.
