Although the modern Materia Medica __in cludes many valuable remedies for human afflictions, it is a matter of certainty that in all cases where the animal vitality is failing, Phos phorus is decidedly superior to every other remedy at present known. It will work effects such as nothing else wiU produce, and it pos sesses the great advantage of not causing, when its use is relinquished, the slightest reaction or depression. . _„ ,__, The question naturally presents itself, * Why is so valuable an element so little regarded and so seldom prescribed ?" The only answer which can be given is :—That a certain difficulty has been found in so preparing it that its action may be kept under perfect control. Aitherto it has been used in almond and olive oils, in sulphuric ether, in rectified alcohol, in chloroform, and in several other substances; but however valu able it has been found in all the hitherto known methods of its preparation, certain irregular results have been experienced, which have led physicians to neglect it for general purposes and to employ it only in extreme cases, and after every other remedy has failed. But a chemical process has now .been discovered, by which its invaluable action on the human sys tem may be realised without any of those draw backs which previous modes of aaministration have invariably produced. e_tr Caution.—Phosphorus is sometimes sold in the form of Pills and Lozenges ; it should be generally known that every form where solid particles of Phosphorus are in combination is dangerous. It is therefore necessary that tho public should be cautioned against the use of any preparation o* Phosphorus not perfectly soluble in water.

SST Caution.—The large and increasing demand for Dr. Bright's Phosphodyne has led to several imitations unrter similar names ; pur chasers of this medicine should therefore be careful to observe that the words " Dr. Bright's Phosphodyne" are blown in the bottle, and that the directions for use are printed in all the languages as above, without which none ran possibly be genuine.

Writer's Cramp Loss of Voice Asthma Bronchitis Paralysis a. Epilepsy Rheumatism Gout • Constipation Local Debility General Debility Fem»le Complain ts| Mental and Physical Functional Disorders Weakness . &c.. Sec, Sec This is no conlecturo, but an established scientific fact, and it must be admitted that PULVERMACHER'S GALVANIC CHAIN BANDS, by supplying this electrical deficiency, constitutes nature's most congenial curative in the ailments referred to, embodying a host of remedies in one. Thirty years' successful exoerience has proved the marvellous remedial powers of these appli ances,- even in cases defying' ordinary treat ment. The following is] spontaneous and remark able :— ** Auckland, November 26,1877. "Dear Sir,—l have been a great sufferer from Lumbago—in fact, for the last 6J years I have not been free from it for one minute: and to make things worse, about two years and nine months since Neuralgia of the Bladder set in which has been dreadfully painful and trouble some. I saw a short time since your advertise ments in reference to Pulvermacher's Galvanic Bands, and the cures affected by them, and ' being averse to taking medicine for these com plaints, I determined to try one. The result has been something wonderful, the Neuralgia in the Bladder left me in a week (mostly in the morn ing, I could scarcely crawl out of bed for it), and the Lumbago is verynearly gone (it has been of such long standing that I never expected to get any better), and instead of my life been made miserable by these pains, I feel almost like another man. You are perfectly at liberty to publish this if you think fit, and perhaps it may be the means of some other unfortunate sufferer gaining relief. " 1 am, yours truly, "James Slator. " G.
