Their worth and merit have secured tor them in every part of New Zealauu the confidence of the public. They have cured long-standing cas.es of sickness, and TESTIMONIALS similar to those given below arc being received irom ail parts of the Colony by the Proprietor :— "Kensington, Dunedin, 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. Jameson." "Pier Hotel, Dunedin, 26th May, 1876.—Sir,— Haying bc^n much beneflttcd by the use of your Indian Medicine, I have great pleasure in adding my testimony as to its eillcacy, andean recotu mend others to try it. Some of my friends, who have a.lso been using these medicines, speak very favourably of: them, and have received much benefit from their use.—(Signed), Ophelia ""Port Chalmers, New Zealand, 3rd July, 1876. 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 state that I had been suffering the most excruciating agony from severe Rheumatism 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 found myself getting better after taking three bottles'of it. I continued taking the medicine for about six weeks, and became perfectly restored to health, being per fectly cured of all pain or symptoms of Rheuma tism. My appetite is excellent, and I sleep well at night,—Signed), Fred. Williams." "Dunedin; 10th July, IS7C-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 from very severe rheumatic attacks for about la years, accompanied by most agonising pains in my limbs and loins, through which my rest was much disturbed at night, my appetite very imperfect, and my general health altogether impaired. I am happy to state that I am now free from the pains I had experienced for so many yeara. I can sleep well at night, my appetite and general health are much improved, and I can attend to my business and houoe duties. This happy change has been brought about by the use of your Rheumatism Mixture for about two months.—l am, Sir, yours gratefully.— (Signed), S. Pickett." . '?Dunedin, 31st August, 1876.-Sir,-Havmg taken your GhoUah's Rheumatic Mixture tor some considerable time, and having .been com pletely cured by its use, of the very severe rheu matic gout from which 1 had suffered moat severely for the last ton years, I can bear testi mony to its most extraordinary curatic powers. I am now free from all pain, and well in my health, and have the free use of my hands and fret which I had not previous to taking your medicine. I think it right to state, for the bene fit of others suffering the tortures that I endured for the period above stated, that I attribute my restoration to health and freedom from pain entirely to the uao of your invaluable medicine. T can strongly recommend it those suffering from rheumatism or gout.—(Signed), John Ghiffen, J.P."

Mer chandise, Goods, and Freight Insured, by steamers and sailing vessels, Risks on Specie subject to special arrangements. *w LOSSES Promptly!, Paid, n GTCORGK P. PIKR K. Manager. The undersigned begs to inform his numerous customers, and the public generally, and espe cially the working classes, that he has just received Direct from England, and imported to his own order, another SHIPMENT o£ the CLOTHING FROM THE WEST END OF LONDON, of the same Fashionable Styles and and Materials which were so much admired here a short time ago. They will be sold at a Great Reduction on the former low prices, owing to the fact that being Bought for Cash a very large discount was allowed him, in con sequence of dull times prevailing at home. The public are well aware that the advertiser has the best chance of offering Bargains to them than any other Clothier in town, for the simple reason that he keeps no long array of assistants, but attends to the wants of his customers him self, being on the premises from 7 am. till 10 p.m., and takes especial pride in seeing them well suited, both as regards Quality, Style, and Price. During his long business career, by attending to the above, increase of custom has been his reward. His Stock throughout has always been noted for the best and well-spoken of, no rubbish finding a place on his shelves, and he makes it a rule never to Buy other people's Old Rubbish at Auction also, but always keeps replenishing it from the Best Home Manufacturers, selected by his own buyer. When any of the Stock becomes out of Date, instead oC trying to pass it oki>' on Cus tomers as Bankrupt's Stock at enormous sacri fice, he prefers getting rid of it, and sending it himself to auction. He does not believe in having his Creditors Selling his Goods by Auction, but sells them himself to the public at a Low Figure, acting on the old adage, " Small Profits and Quick Returns." There is no PUFF ING about him. His advertisements are always genuine, and are paid for out of his own pocket, and not out of those of his creditors. They know they arc always sure of having their claims paid in full, and so lets him "rip. The proof of the. above-mentioned can always be found if the public will only look at the manifests of the different ships always arriving here from London, I. Levy's name always figuring pro minently as a Large Importer. SPECIAL NOTICE.—As I. Levy is a Profes sional Tailor, and has been a long time in business here, it. stands to reason that he knows the Style of Goods to suit the public, and no Customer has any occasion to leave the Shop without the different purchases fit to perfection. A Special Feature is one case of New and Old Fashioned Styles of extra big size Mex's Trousers and Vests, and Shirts, length from it inches to 174 collars (a rarity in any city).
