Long experience has proved these famous remedies to be most effectual in curing either the dangerous maladies or the slighter com plaints which are more particularly incidental to the life of a miner, or those living in the bush. Occasional doses of these Pills will guard the system against those evils which so often beset the human race, viz.:—Coughs, colds, and dis orders of the liver and stomach—the frequent forerunners of fey r, dysentery, diarrhoea, and cholera. Is tbia a > i effectual remedy for old sores wounds, ulcers, rheumatism, and all skin diseases ; in fact, when used according to the printed directions, it never fails to cure alike, deep and superficial ailments. These Medicines may be obtained from all respectable Druggists and Storekeepers through out the civilised world, with directions for use in almost every language.

Jamieson." __ „__„ _~ "Pier Hotel, Dunedin, 26thMay, 1876.—Sir,— Having been much benefitted by the use of your Indian Medicine, I have great pleasure madding my testimony as to its efficacy, andean recom mend others to try it.

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 appetito 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 Itheu matism Mixture, and found myself getting better after talcing 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, ana I sleep well at night.—Signed), Fred.

I had been suffering from very severe rheumatic attacks for about 15 years, accompanied by most agonising pains in my limbs and loins, through winch my rest was much disturbed at night, my appetite very imperfect, and my general health aftos;ether impaired. I am happy to state that I am now free from the pains I had 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 house duties. This happy change has been brought about Dj* the use of your Rheumatism Mixture for about two months.—l am, Sir, yours gratefully. (Sienied), S. Pickett." __. .

I am now free from all pain, and well in ray health, and have the free use of my hands and feet, which I had not previous to taking your medicine.

Tho undersigned begs to inform his numerous customers, and the public generally, and espe cially tho working classes, that he has just received Direct prom England, and imported to his own order, another SHIPMENT of 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 largo 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 kcops no long array of assistants, but attends to the wants of his customers him self, being on the premises from 7 a.m. till 10 p.m., and takes especial pride in seeing them well suited, both a. regards Quality, Style, and Price. During his long business career, by attending to the- above, increase of custom has been his roward. His Stock throughout has always been noted for tho best and well-spoken of, no rubiiish finding a placo on his shelves, and he makes it, a rule never to Buy other people's Old Rubbish at Auction also, but always kcops replenishing it from the Best Homo Manufacturers, selected by his own buyer. When any of the Stock becomes out of Date, instead of trying to pass it off on Cus tomers as Bankrupt's Stock at enormous sacri fice, he prefers getting rid of it, and sending it himself to auction. Ho 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 are 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 tho different ships always arriving hero 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 kind of Goods to suit the public, and no Customer has any occasion to leave the Shop without the different purchases fit to perfection.
