KARANA. WHEN the digestive organs are out of order a good reliable Tonic is required to bring them back to their normal state. A number of persons upset the stomach by neglecting to take their meals at regular stated intervals, and others again eat to excess at some particular meal-—and from these causes the machinery gets out of order and does not run smootly. Late suppers, also, are one of the causes of upsetting the digestive organs. How often does a man, too, in meeting an old acquaintance have a merry evening and suffer terribly from the effects the next day. Sister Mary Joseph Anbert, in her re searches amongst the plants of New Zealand, has discovered there is a very valu] able remedy for these complaints in our own vegetation, and, after expetimenting for a number of years, has now brought forward the medicine called KARANA. Dr Larochette, a chemist of the first class of the Faculty of Paris, to whom samples were sent, says:—“ It is an excellent bitter tonic, and I consider it even superior to the preparation of Cinchona in all affections of the stomach. It has given us, prepared as you sent it, the most satisfactory results.’’ The Reverend sister says she has used it for many years extensively and successfully with’ sufferers of every age and constitution, and she noticed that in a few cases it did not agree at first, but by diminishing the dose good results followed. She remarked astonishing good results on old people, who had ruined their constitutions by the abuse of intoxicating drink and who were debilitated and suffering after haling turned over a new leaf. Kawana, March, 1888. Dear Madam, —I respectfully thank you for what you have done for me. You have saved my life. Your medicine (Karana) is invaluable. I wish I could make you a return for your kindness, F.
