The proprietor having received very many testimonials from respected and well-known old colonists (North and Middle Islands), solicits a careful perusal of a few of them, and leaves the public to judge whether or not these Indian Medicines have been justly styled THE WONDER OF THE NINETEENTH CENTURY. All suffering from Rheumatism, Neuralgia, Sciatica, Lumbago, Gout, Rheumatic Gout, Indigestion, Biliousness, or Liver Complaints, should immediately try these medicines, and prove their marvellous effects. They can be had of all chemists and medicine vendors. THE mistake many Advertisers make is to place their advertising expenses to current account instead of to capital account. Suppose a yearly expenditure of £IOO in Advertising produces a net profit of only £2O for the first year. Undoubtedly this does not mean a loss of £BO, but it means a return of £2O per cent upon capital invested ; for the business is there, and will remain if properly looked after, and a second year’s Advertising will most certainly increase the profit on the full capital to 30 or 40 per cent. As a set-off to these expenses in the capital account of the enierprising business-man, he can show the increased value of the article advertised, and also of the goodwill of his business. Some business-men lose sight of this fact.— Advertisers' Manual. HEARN & KENNEDY, Owners, Kakaramea
