DRUGS WON'T DO.

FREE TRIAL OF SOMETHING

THAT WILL DO,

You would be perfectly astonished if you were made aware of the many thousands of pounds absolutely thrown away from year to year upon so-called curatives that are foisted upon a public only too willing to believe the specious arguments laid before them.

Even the hard-earned shillings of the very poor are wasted in this way; in fact.it is to the ignorant, anxious to rid themselves of the various ailments which handicap them in the race for life that such arguments are too often addressed.

Now, strength and muscular activity, rosy cheeks, plumpness, and health can be obtained without medicine.

The replenishing of the system from the wasting of tissues which is going on every day can only be accomplished by the proper assimilation of food. It cannot be done with medicine. It can, however, he accomplished with a perfect, flesh-forming, palatable and agreeable Food-beverage. Dr. Tibbies' Vi-Cocoa is such a Foodbeverage, possessing as it does wonderful nourishing, strengthening and stimulative powers unsurpassed by any other Food-beverage. Dr. Tibbies' Vi-Cocoa is not a medicine. It does simply what it is claimed to do, and its strengthening powers are being recognised to an extent hitherto unknown in the history of any preparation.

Medical men and the public are offering conclusive testimony upon the value of Dr. Tibbies' Vi-Cocoa, and to show their confidence in the new preparation the proprietors make the unparalleled offer of a free test of merit, a dainty sample tin being sent gratis and post free to any address on mentioning Auckland 'Star.' This offer is made because it sells Dr. Tibbies' Vi-Cocoa, the new preparation referred to; in fact, the sales are increasing to such an extent that additional manufacturing facilities have had to be made.

Dr. Tibbies' Vi-Cocoa in B£d packets and 1/1 and 2/2 tins can be obtained from all Chemists, Grocers, and Stores, or from Dr. Tibbies' Vi-Cocoa, Limited, 269 George-street, Sydney.
