OARNELL BOROUGH GAZETTE. CHE QUESTION IS OFTEN ASKED HOW F. TOMLINSON, DRAPER. PARNELL, "SELLS SO CHEAP?" Ist. Because having had 17 years' experience in the Drapery Business, he has a very good idea of the Value of Goods. 2nd. Because he has no heavy City Rates, Water Rates, &c, to pay, but i 3 under a very nominal rent. 3rd. Because he is always fible to meet his bills before they are due (taking the discount), and is, therefore, in a position to Purchase Goods on the same terms as the Largest Establishments in Auck land. Having an Unusually Large and Welt. Assorted Stock, I am giving Extra Value for Money, as the STOCK MUST BE REDUCED., previous to making necessary alterations for the SPRING TRADE. Y.

Impurity and inactivity of tho blood is tho ca'ue of most sickness and pains. After a course of this medicine, blood vessels—which have become, as it were, choked up with unhealthy matter—become exhilirant with pure scarlet life-blood, flowing naturally along, and impart , ing in its course vigour aud strength to the en . ire system. N.U,—Country Settlors will find in Kitchens Blood Restorer an almost complete substitute for tho Doctor. It arrests Colds, allays F> vers, and builds up thesystem. Children take it with ivonderful results. No household should be without it. ANOTHER MIRACULOUS CURE. The following is striking evidence of the won derful effects of the lilood Restorer, after al! other means have failed to cure :— Rokeby-street, Auckland, Ist December, 1877. Mr.HiTcnEXS,— Dear Sir,—l have to thank you very much for the benefit I have received through using your valuable Blood Restorer, and as a warning and guidanco 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 trom being bene . fitted by the attendance of medical men, I grew rapidly worse, and the pair, heeumo agonising. One day my husband had in his hand a portion of an old Auckland Bvexing Si ah, containing your professional announcement of the medicine and it 3 cures. The taper w,t.s of a back date, and the adve-tisod agent's andress, a Chemist in ■ Wellesley-sti eet. My husband applied to him for Hitchens' Llood Restorer, hut the. i.'hemist used such iilnatured r< marks to dissuade us from testing tiie virtue of the medicine that we felt there -.".as some spite at work, and deter mined more than ever to give it atrial. The pleasing result of the trial was, that after taking it a week. 1 felt wonderful relief; before many bottles were taken, I was not only liberated from a sick room, but felt in perfect health; <:ppetite was restored, strength re gained, and 1 have to thank Ood that you were at band to provide the means of my rapid cure, and enable me once more to attend to my household duties. Yours very gratefully, Mrs; Walter Kxox.
