No bottle 3 are genuine unless bearing the Pro prietor's Signature. HAMILTON BROTHERS, Queen-street, WHOLESALE AGENTS. Sold by Mr J. Edson, Chemist, Queen-street; Mr A. G. Hughes, corner of Shortland and Princes-street; Mr Robinson, Chemist, Par nell: Messrs Hill & Hudson, Victoria-street: Mr. B allwell, Otahuhu ; Mr, Fallwkll, and T. R .Gillman, Onehunga. Tl'Stimonials can ibe seen on application to the Proprietor, at his residence, top of Wake field-street. The strongest recommendation for this medi cine is its own intrinsic worth, as shewn by the marvellous cures effected on well-known and much respected members of our community, The bsst proof of this is to be found in the large number of testimonials received by the makei thankfully acknowledging the restoration o! health experienced by using this panacea. At the request of those already cured, th( proprietor now brings the "Blood Restorer more prominently before the Public, in the Bim and certain hope that this utilising of the gift.' of a merciful Providence will prove a grea blessing to suffering humanity, by curing long seated diseases and averting threatening sick ness. The want of a reliable remedy for Rheuma tism, &c, has long been felt as one of th< greatest calamities of the age. While othei means and medicine have been proving them selves vain and delusive this remedy has beei silently and steadily unloosing the cruel finger; of disease, and freeing captive man from tha deadly embrace. The people are now requestet to give the Blood Restorer a fair and impartu trial. And '.hs Praprietor would have it dis tinctlyunddr^tood that the cures of Rheumatism &c. are due entirely to the medicine's wonder ful effect upon the blood, by its cleansing, puri tying, and invigorating system. Impurity and inactivity of the mood 13 the cause of most sickness and pains. After a course of this medicine, blood vepsels^which havi become, as it were, choked tip with unhealthy matter —become exhilirant with pure scarie life-blood, flowing naturally along, and impart ing in its course vigour and strength to the en ire system. - " N.B,— Country Settlers will find in Hitch ens Blood Restorer an almost complete substitute for the Doctor. It arrests Colds, allays Fever? and builds up the system. Children take it witl wonderful results. No household should b( WIANOTKER MIRACULOUS CURE. The following is striking evidence of the won derful effects of the Blood Restorer, after al other means have failod to cure : — Rokeby-street, Auckland; Ist December, 1877. Mr. HiTCHENS,— Dear Sir,—l have to thank you very much foi the benefit I have received through using yom valuable Blood Restorer, and as a warning and guidance to others, would make known the particulars of my illness and cure. Some months ago I was taken ill with pains in the back, sup posed to be lumbago. So far from being bene fitted by the attendance of medical men, I grew rapidly worse, and the pain became agonising. One day my husband had in his hand a portion of an old Auckland Evening Star, containing your professional announcement of the medicine and its cures. The paper was of a back date, and the advertised agent's address, a Chemist in Wellesley-street. My husband applied to him for Hitchens' Blood Restorer, but the Chemist used such illnatured remarks to dissuade us from testing the virtue of the medicine, that we felt there was some spite at work, and deter mined more than ever to give it a trial. Ihe pleasing result of the trial was, that after taldng it a week, I felt wonderful relief; before many bottles were taken, I was not only liberated from a sick room, but felt in perfect health; appetite was restored, strength re gained, and I have to thank God that you were at hand to provide the means of my rapid cure, and enable me once more to attend to my household duties. Yours every gratefully, Mrs. Walter Knox. To Mr. Hitchens, .

TOCAL TESTIMONY PUL VERM ACH KIl'S PATENT GALVANIC CHAiN-BAN.DS, BELTS, AND BATTERIES (RECENTLY IMPROVED). Vital energy, it is well known, depends upon the normal functions of the nervo-electric fluid governing the whole economy; any deficiency thereof in the system manifests itself, according to the locality, by a variety of troublesome ail mems, such as Indigestion Liver Complaints Neuralgia Sciatica Deafness Writer's Cramp Loss of Voice Asthma Bronchitis Paralysis Epilepsy Rheumatism Gout Constipation Local Debility General Debility Female Complaints' Mental and Physical Functional Disorders Weakness &c, &c, &cv,. i. This is no coniecture, but an established scientific fact, and it must be admitted that PULVERMACHER'S GALVAMIO 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 experience has proved the marvellous remedial powers of these appli ances, even in cases defying ordinary treat ment. The following is] spontaneous and remark •' Auckland, November 26,1877. "Dear Sir,—l have been a great sufferer from Lumbago—in fact, for the last 6i yeara 1 have not been free from it for one minute: ami 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 mo in a week (mostly in the morn ing, I could scarcely crawl out of bed for it), anc the Lumbago is very nearly gone (it has been o: 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 Dublish this if you think fit, and perhaps itjnay be the means of some other unfortunate sufferer gaining relief. "lam, yours truly, "James Slator. "G.
