Extraordinary Cure of an Auckland Omnibus Driver, 21 years resident, of Long-standing Rheumatism. Auckland, August 20,1878. Dear Sir,—l had severely and most acutely from Rheumatism for many years, brought on, I believe, from exposure to all weathers in the exercise of my calling. For years I could not sleep at night, and was unable to lie except in one position. Day and night 1 was full of excruciating pains, scarcely able to move about at all, and as a natural sequence my general health vras also materially imurea I believe I suffered the pangs of Rheumatism and its attendant evils, in every Bhape and form and my life was almost a burden to me- Itr ie every remedy I could hear of, but without ob taining any reliof whatever. The sum I spent in medicine and medical advice was very cod. siderable, but of no avail, until I invested in bottle of your Blood Restorer. I confess that I was not hopeful at all when I pur chased your medicine, I had tried so many specifics without receiving the sllghest benefit, but having determined to give it a fair trial, I carried out my intention. I adhered strictly to the directions, and the result is that I am changed from a mere wreck to my former self again—restored to health and vigour, and able to drive daily through all weathers, and at all hours, if occasion requires. I am sure you have never had a worse case to deal with than mine, and although even now, in bad weather, I feel my limbs rather stlrr, after sitting on the box for a longtime,lam a living example of the almost miraculous curative properties (under Providence) of your now celebrated Blood Restorer. My friends tell me it is a duty I owe to my fellow creatures to send you this acknowledgement, and if it is the means of persuading other sufferers to go and do likewise. I shall feel that this letter Is not written in vain. I have the more pleasure in giving this testimonial as it ia quite un solicited on your part. You are at liberty, of course, to make any use of this.—l am, sir, yours gratefully, Henry Maiden-. To H. E. Hitchens, Esq., Auckland.

nEEAT GENIUSES HAVE BIG V7T HEADS, so you needn't wondei at my Big Belltoppers are all sold. I have, however, succeeded in finding a few more, from size 6* to 7, which will bo large enough for very clever men who do not profess to be great geniuses, at the same old price, Ba. Any man who can show me a Satin Scarf that he has paid 4s 6d for of superior quality to my beauties at Is, Bhai nave c c of mine for nothing, until further notice. You see. Ladies, how 1 try to sharpen up some of the married men. It seems a pity to let them have such splendid wide arid narrow brim Felt Hats for the low price of 2s6d, but you know I must let them have a bargain when it is thrown in my way. I don't see any chance in prospect of their ever getting such another bargain aguin in Waistcoats as I am now selling at & each. Since writing the above. I have bought a lot of fashionable White Hard Felt Hats, the wholesale price of which was 6s Bd. 1 bought them for—well, never mind what J. bought them for. The proper price of them is about 103. Well, I will sell them for the ridicu lous price of 4s each. I have also iust bought JO dozen Fashionable Hard Black Hats, and will soil them at the same price, namely 1* ; alsoiO dozen Bplendid Plaid Sbirts, which I will sell at 3°6d each ; aLo a lot of White Ventilator Bell toppers at 7s.

Fffst of all there is Ribbon Velvet over one inch wide at dd a yard; another lot of lovely Feather Kdge Ribbon, beautiful colours, includ ing blue and pink, 5d a yard ; also another lot of the lovely did Ribbon, and I must say it is going so fast that I was thinking of raising the price.

Stout Ladies can now obtain superior large sound Stays at 3s a pair, and I have also large old fashioned ones that lace behind, at the same price. I am going to let you have a nice bargan for a little while in Towels, at 6d each; a few pairs of Women s and Children's damaged Boots left, at 2s and 2s 6d a pair; Sheath Knives, 4d each ; superior do., Gd. I have Butchers' Knives, over 10 inches long in the blade. Is each; Shoemaker do., 3d each; White-bandied Knives and Forke, 9d a pair. Tell your friends, ladies, about my splendid Stays I mentioned in my last advertise ment, many of which have scarcely a spot on them. I have sold as many as about 2J dozen pairs of Stays in one day since I bought them and I very much doubt if any other shop in Auckland ever sold as many in one day.

The Analytical and Sanitary Institution 64 Holborn Viaduct, E.C.. London, 9th May, 1877. Report on a Sample of Imperial Schiedam Sch napps, received from Mr. H. J. Hart. We have subjected a sample of the above named article to a very careful chemical analysis and examination. The results of the analysis, which are set forth in a separate report, show that this spirit is of good strength, practically free from acidity, and that it contains but traces of solid matter in solution. It possesses a delicate and agreeable aroma, and a pure and mild taste. Mr. Hart's Schiedam Schnapps is a very superior article of its class, is well purified, and quite genuine. (Signed) Arthur H.

Sir,—l have the honour to report for your in formation that the sample of Imperial Schiedam Schnapps forwarded by yon to_ mo has been sub mitted to a searching chemical analysis and critical examination, the result of which enables me to state that it is the Finest Sample o( Schnapps that has as yet come under my notice. It has a pure fragrant odour, and isabsolutely free from any trace of fußil or other injurious impurity, and has evidently been distilled from superior rye grain, always used instead of malt in the production of the choicest qualities oi Schnapps. It is very smooth to the palate, and in this respect compares favourably with other samples offered for sale. It may be advised as equally suitable for medical or economic pur poses. I have the honour to be, &c, (Signed) Wm. Johnson, Analytical Chemist to the Governmeni of Victoria. This Pure Medical Spirit, Superior to any r the Market, and Lower in Price, is offered to the Public under the full conviction that it wilJ supersede all others now in use.
