The following biief extracts are selected from among somehundieds of testimonials of a similar rharacter which have been given rom time to time : Fnosi Bishop Hadfield, Wellington. 'Having been at TeAiohn four weeks, and having obtained great relief feom the use of bafh No. 3, I think it well to add my testimony to that of thers which you have already re eehed. Having had a very severe fall, which oc-cisioned me much pain in my back and considerable inconvenience, and which in capa> itated me for any exertion for nine weeks, I am now almost entirely free from pain, and am able to wolk a moderate distance." From Mb J Hot^loway, Manager of the Bank of New Zealand, Nelson : " I feel I ought to place on record my high appreciation of (he waters of your justly famous baths For many months past I have suffered from a severe attack of sciatica and lumbago, ending latterly in complications of scarcely less painfull nature. After about a month's residence af Te Aroha, I am thankful to say I can move about with considerable ease, while the pi n from which I hive suffered so long has almost left me. It will be my pleasure as well as my duty to recommend all my friends who may be in search of health to try the waters of Te Aroha." From Captain T, Fp.asee, M.L.C. Dtjnkdin, " I shall be pleased if you will give me an opportunity of publicly expressing my opinion of the Te Aroha Springs. Since my residence at Te Aroha, from what I have seen and heard, I am convinced that these springs contain extraordinary curative properties for the following complaijits : Suppressed gout, rheumatism in all its forms, dyspepsia, and ; cutaneous disorders ; and as the springs are proved to contain heavy traces of lithia, they j must beefiiacious in renal complaints. Wherever I go I shall, in the interests of humanity, make known the special virtues of the Te Aroha Springs." From Mb BAuroun, Manager op the Bank ofN.Z., Napier. " I wish to testify to the very great relief I have experienced from using the Te Aroha hot baths, f have been subject for many years to rheumatism, and in April last had a very severe attack, which proved obstinate to t=hake off, and after trying vainly many remedies, was ordered to the hot springs. When I arrived at Te Aroha T was suffering much from rheumatism, which prevented my sleeping at night, and made walking during the day a difficulty ; but from using No. 2 bath for a little over three weeks the pains have entiiely left my head, und do not give any uneasiness in my feet ; in fact, I may safely and truly s-ay that at present I am completely cured and greatly improved in health." Mil GhnoRGK Rioketts, of Auckland, writes : " I cannot speak too highly of these baths. On my arrival at Te Aroba I was suffeiing agony from rheumatism in the feet, so much so t.hat I could scarcely put them to the ground. In the short space of three days I feel myself almost completely cured." Db W, R, Ebson, of Onehttnga, Auck ianb. " The analysis of the springs at Te Aroha, and the highly medicinal value of their constituents at once indicate ar esidence heie, and a course of judicious treatment, as the ' El Dorado ' for the majority of unfortunnte sufferers in most forms of rhematism. gout, a large number kidney affections, and last, bnt not least, that common ' ill which flesh is htir to ' — dyspepsia."
