WONDERS NEVER CEASE.
Electricity, which has such a marvellous sway In this world, makes one think that before long everything will be done by this wonderful power. Mr J. E. Hansen, Shortland, Thames, has just imported from America the wonder of wonders in the form of a compound called Electrine. This is one of the latest and most marvellous inventions of the nineteenth century. It is an instantaneous silver and plate cleaner, and will resilver all kinds of brass spoons, forks, cruets, mustard pots, pepper pets, harness chains, bicycles, bag handles, watches, rings and, in fact, any kind of brass and copper, wire. Being manufactured by liV. Edison should be asutt'eient guarantee of its quality and value, and it ought t« prove a great bo'jii to housewives. It is so simple in its operations and so easily used that a child can resilver. It is well known that nothing is more injurious to one's health than to eat from anything of a, brassy nature, even to drink the water from a brass tap; but while one can purchase Edison's Electrine at so low a figure many a man, woman, and child would enjoy better health, also save money in chemists' and doctors' accounts. Experts strongly recommend the public to give it a trial, and feel sure that they will be thoroughly pleased with its most marvellou results. It is free from all mercurial ingredients; therefore it contains nothing of an injurious nature to silver or plated v/are. Latest advices are that wherever this, Electrine has been exhibited it has won silver and gold medals, and the demand for it is ever increasing. Testimonials have been received pronouncing this Electriue one of the greatest boons and inventions of the day. Retailed by all storekeepers, and wholesale by J. E. Hansen.
