TT~O GAL TESTIMON Y. 1 PULVEHMACHER'S PATENT GALVANIC CHAIN-BANDS, BELTS, AN D BAT I'E KIES (URGENTLY IMPROVED). Vital energy, it is well known, deoeuds upon the normal functions of the nervo-cl. eric fluid governing the whole economy : any deficiency thereof in the system manifests It-elf, according to the locality, by a variety of troublesome ail men s, such as Indigestion Liver Complaims Neuralgia Sciatica Deafness Writer's Cramp Loss of Voice ABthina Bronchitis Paralysis Kpilepsy Rheumatism Gout Constipation Local Debility General Debility FemMe Complaints) Mental and Physical Functional Disorders Weakness &c., Sec, &c. ThU is no eoniecture, but an established scientific fact, and it must be admitted that PULVERMACHEK'd 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 experience 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.-I have been :a great sufferer from Lumbago—in fact, for the lust CV years I have not been free from it for-one minute; ami to make things worse, about two yews nnd nine months since Neuralgia of the JJladtler set in which has been dreadfully puinful an■! trouble some. I saw a short time since your advertise ments in reference to Pulverniacher'a O.ilvanic Bands, and the cures affected by them, and being averse to taking medicine for t licso com plaints, I determined to try one. The result has neen 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 very nearly gone (it has been of such long standing that I never expected to get any better), and instead of my lif« 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. "lam, yours truly, "James Slator. "G. Aickin, Esq., Chemist, " Queen-street, Auckland." Solr Agent: AICKIN, THE PHARMACY, Queen-street, Auckland. THE GREATEST • WONDER OF MODERN TIMES. 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, vi —Coughs, co Ids, and dis orders of the liverand stomach — the frequent orerunners of fey dysentery, di arrhcea, and holera. HOLLO WAY'S OINTMENT Is the most effectual remedy lor scaids or 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 uae in almost every language.
