St Ja.obs' Oil TO~~THE READERS OF THE EAWKE'S BAY HERALD. The Proprietors of the article to which attention is directed in this column firmly believe that there is nothing unmercantile or unprofessional in giving the widest publicity, by means of the Preßs and otherwise, to articles of unquestioned merit, whether of a medicinal or other nature. They furthermore believe that the sweeping objection occasionally urged by some people against advertised preparutions is born of dishonesty rather than of unprejudiced judgment. Fully convinced oE the extraordinary power of St. Jacob's Oil to conquer pain, as demonstrated in millions and millions of homes in erery land and clime, they unhesitatingly offer the article to the public io every civilised country as the most wonderful pain curing and healing remedy ever discovered ; and they do this by methods which they hold to be not only honorable and business-like, but in every way right and proper. Believing that a medicine, like a man, is best judged by its standing s.t home, the proprietors of St. Jacob's Oil present, in connection with the testimonials of numerous residents of the Australian colonies, the emphatic endorsement of some of the most eminent men in public and private life in the United States of America, where, in the homes of over 50,000,000 of people, St. Jacobs Oil has been a synonymous term with >: It Conquers Pain." 'Ihe public will please note that in every instance t,he names are those of well-known responsible parties. These are not silent witnesses, 'lheir statements are nineteenth century facts. The parlies whose testimony as given are all alive. No graveyards have been robbed to swell the list. A RESIDENT OF KYDE 13 NOW ABLE TO WALK.

I confess the result was most gratifying, not only in this case, but in several others among my friends which have 1 come to my notice.

I suggested her using St. Jacobs' Oil, and am pleased to say the result was of a most satisfactory character. After one or Wo applications the pain entirely left, and up to the present have had no return of the trouble. I look on St. Jacobs' Oil as a universal panacea for all kinds of aches and pnins, I have advised many of my personal friends to give it a trial, and have heard from them that nothing they have ever used did them so much good. It is, without doubt, the only household remedy of modern times, and I shall always keep a bottle within reach, — I remain, dear sirs, yours faithfully, J. R. Dbewett."

Edward Teickext, Esq., the celebrated oarsman, in a recent conversation with a representative of one of the foremost journals of the United States, gave the following as his opinion ;— " I have found St. Jacobs Oil a sure and certain cure, and one unequalled by any medicine. It cured me of severe pains in the back brought on by over-exertion in rowing. It is a pleasant, safe, and sure remedy, penetrating at once to the seat; of the disease, and eradicating the complaint without further trouble." 1 The writer listened attentively to the above.
