CELEBRATED PREMIUM
SEVING MACHINES '
Have special' claims to public attention, "as a very
superior and Tainabie assistant in household in
dustry. That this Machine has made thousands
of friendc, who attest its superiority over every
thing else cannott oe doubted ; and it is claimed
that it is only necessary to reason upon its pecu
liarities to enable1 any person to appreciate its
advantages in the,. family over every other one in
use. What these advantages are claimed to be,
wo propose briefly to state, that a comparison
may be drawn between the G&ovkr and Barb?.
and other Machines :
1. It makes the only seam formed by a Sew
ing Machine in which each 9titch is inde
pendently locked, and without depend
ence upon the other stitches tor strength,
and the only seam that will admit of the
thread being cut at every fourth stitch
withont injury to tho scam in wear, it is
unnecessary to fasten off the ends of
teame, this being done by the Machine
itself without the use of the hand needle.
2. The Grovbr and Baker stitch is tho only
ono formed from two ordinary reels, and
without winding from tho reel into a
sbnttle from three to five tiroes for the
under thread. A 6f.am thus formed is
more elastie tham any otbhr madb bv
a Sbwisc Machine, and is cohse-
qoehtlv vep.t valuable is all oood3
that are to uk washed and stketchei'
uhdkr the irom.
2. The Machine is adapted to all varieties of
fabrics, sewing each equally well, and
requires no adjustment for any kind of
sewing other than the adaption of
needles and thread, and by reason of its
simplicity of constrnction and ease of
management it is best adapted to all the
wante of a family.
THE LOCK OS SHUTTLE STITCH MA
CHINES manufacture! by Grovcr and Baker
making the scam alike on both sides of the fabric
need but little comment, and partiea desiring to
invest are respectfully requested to make in
quiries of those who have them in use, as to their
superior merits over any other Lock Stitch
Machine made. >

Gout, eheumatism, neu
ralgia,
And
PAINFUL NERVOUS AFFECTrONS.
I wish to inform all those who are suffering
from the above diseases that I have discovered,
what I deem a true specific.
It is well known that I have, for the last
twenty-two years, practised nearly exclusively in
nervous diseases.
The largo amount of my practice in these casea
may be judged of when I inform the public that
my advertising expenses alone amount to over
£300 j per year, and that my patients are from all
tho colonies, and even from Japan. China, and
India.
It can readily, then, be understood that very
few medical men, even in England, have had the
experience which I have had in the treatment of
those diteases to which my advertisements apply,
viz., Painful Nervous Diseases, and which for so
many years I have made a speciality.
These nervous affections are allied so closely
with gout aud rbematic diseases that I have beeu
compelled to make the latter my study for years.
The result is, that 'I firmly believe — and my
successful practice in these cases confirms m€ iu
that belief — that I have found a true specific for.
gout and rhematism.
I have no hesitancy here in publicly stating
that my theory is scientifically based on the
direct inlloence of the nervous centres upon
nutrition and secretion, and that gout is especially
due to( tho derangement of the latter, and di.
rectly influenced by the nervous centres.
When an agent is found capable of acting on
the central netvous system, tho centrifugal aud
terminal portions of tne nerves will, in like man
ner, be acted on, simitar to an operator of the
wires at the contral Melbourne telegraph station,
causing action at Sandhurst, Echuca. Ballarat,
&c.
This agent or operator on the nervous system I
have found, aud it consiets chiefly of paleness
application to the spine, as tho ccntro of tho ner
vous system. '
I have cured some hundreds of painful ner
vous affections, and relieved score of cases of
partial paralysis.
Miners and bush residents must be aware that
in a few years they inevitably impending an at
tack, either in the form of rheumatism or
Thematic gout, the consequence of thoir exposure
to wet ana hard living. L it not, then, bettor
for them to take such precautions as will avert
this imminently painful affection.
Those who are troubled with sciatica, and those
who are partially paralysed, should 'pay me a
personal visit, and I w ill at onoc give them an
an« wer to the probable success of my remedy.
To avoid disappointment, my first consultation
fee is one guinea, inclusive of medicines and tho
application of the remedy. Consultation by

m Tbe value of this well known Family Medicine
has been largely tested in all parts of the world,
and by all grades of society, for upwards of
FIFTY YEARS. Its well-earned extonsive sale
has induced SPURIOUS IMITATIONS, some of
which in OUTWARD APPEARANCE so closely
resemble the original as to hare deceived many
purcbaseis. Tho proprietor therefore feels it due
to tbo public to give a special caution against th»
use of SUCH IMITATIONS.
Purchasers are therefore requested carefully to
obserze tbo four following distinctive character
istics, withont wbich none are gonnine :
1st. — In every case the worda JOHN STEED-
MAN, CHEMIST, WALWORTH, SURREY

A child may take ono or two Bonbons three or

From innumerable testimonials we quote only
the following Dr. Aehworth, of the Melbourne

Kruse's Chest Bonbons, thus—" On the recom

been trying Kruse's Ghost Bonbons, in a
severe cold, with sore throat, of long dura
tion, and can pronounce them excellent, as thoy
gave roc instantaneous relief, and effected a
speedy euro.
Persons who come out here on account of pnl-
monary afleciions testify to its efficacy in easilv
subduing coughs and colds during foggy and cold
weather. In families with children nothing cau
bo more desirons than a remedy at once so effec-
tual and so pleasant to take. Many others who
have tried Kruse's Chest Bonbons "before, state
that they never could obtnin anything so effectual
and pleasant to euro a cold.

-\TJiRVOUSNJS8B. DEBILITY,
-L> and SKIN DISKASUS-
Dr. L, L. SMITH has devoted himself for
twenty years in the colony to the practice of this
branch of his profession, while previously in
Eogland he was the pupil of and practised with,
the celebrated Dr. R. T. Culverwell, the only
medical practitioner who ever exclusively adopted
this as a dolo branch of his profession. He
advises sufferers to lose no time, to at once arrest
tho progress of disease or decay, before mora
serious 6vils affect and leave the unfortunate
victim an object of pity.
Dr. Jj. L. SMITH warns the public against
the quaekoric3 advertised by non-professional
men, and that thoso who resort to them must ex.
pect to he ruined in pocket and health. If the
taker of advertised particular nostrums escape
Willi his life, and his system he not irreparably
undermined . by them, lie may consider himself
a fortunate mortal.
Those men and women who have been the
dupes of unprincipled charlatans frequently
seek that recovery, which, alas, is oficn beven'd
Dr. Smith's control. When will the public
understand that it is to their interest to consult
a duly qualified medical man, who has made this
his fsole study rather than apply to a number
of ignorant impostors, who merely it.u i> and prey
upon their health and pockets. Dr. L. L SMITH
baa always stated that to warn the public of these
quicksands is his chief reason for advertising.
In all cases of nervous debility, iowness of
spirits, impaired memory, pimples on tho head,
lassitude, etc., Dr. L, L, SMITH invites sufferers
to consult lriai, as he has no hesitation in stating
that no medical man either here or in England
has had the opportunities of practice and the ex
traordinary experience which he has had.
Dr. L. L. SMITH has heen applied to by so
many unfortunate broken-down, young-old men,
utterly crashed iu spirits, ruined in body, and
iilzbcil in packet, that he deems it his duty to
publish this to the world.
Therefore, those who really desire to bo treated
by one who is at tho head of hiB profession in
this branch of medical practice should lose no
time in seeking his adxice.
