" These Waters are all feebly alkaline and «t''onslv charged with carbonic acid gas, which is constantly esc vping from the Springs in large quantities. Tho Lithia, a valuable constituent of these Water's, is present; in an appreciable qnantitv. Th<-> Annlypis fliow these Sririnqs to be vorv similar in coinposit'on.

Ton may rest assuicl that all you can do for your Springs in the shape of hnpiovinjr tho facilities for their use, is entirely justified by the chaiacter of the water," IMPORTANT TESTIMONY AS TO THE VALUE OF THE BATHS, &c. Sir James Hector states • — ' They are similar to the -waters of Vichy and Chandesaignes. in France ; BiUn, Bohemia ; Ems, Nassau ; and are besides quite equal i to them, in strength." The following brief extracts aro selected from among some hundreds of (e^imonia)s of a similar character which have been given rora time to tune : Fbom Bishop Hadfifm), "Wellington. ' Having been at Te Arohn four weeks, and having obtained great relief feom the use of bath No. 3, I think it well to add my testimony to that of thers which you hme already re reived. Having had a very severe fall, which OfCisioned mo 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 walk a moderafe distance." From Mb J Hot/lowa-y, Manager of the Bank of New Zealand, Nelson : " I feel I ought to place on record my high appreciation of the wateis of your justly famous baths For many months past I have suffered from a sevei'e attack of sciatica and lumbago, onding latterly in complications of scarcely less painfull nature. After about a month's lesidence af Te Aroha, T am thankful to say I can move about with, considerable easp, while the pi n from which I have suffered so long has almost left me. It will be my pleasure a.s well as my duty to recommend all my friends who may be in search of health to tiy the waters of Te Aroha." From Captain T, Fraseb, M.L.C. Dttxedin, " I shall be pleased if you will give me an opporl unity of publicly expressing my opinion of the Te Aroha Springs. Since my losidence at Te Aroha, fiom what I have seen and heard, I am convinced that the«e springs contain extiaordinary curative properties for the following complaints : Suppressed gout, rheumatism in all ils forms, dyspepsia, and cutaneous disorders; and as the spiings are proved to contain heavy traces of litliia, they must beeiliacious in renal complaints, Wheiever I go I hhall, in 1 lie interests of humanity, make known fhe special virtues of the Te Aroha Springs." Fkom Mn HaijTtouk, Managdb of the Bank | ofN.Z., Napiek. "I wish to testify to the very groat relief I have experienced from using the Te Aroha hot baths. I havo been subject, for roany years to rheumatism, and in April last had a very severe attack, which proved obstinate to shake off, and after trying vainly many remedies, was ordered to the hot springs. When I arrived at Te Aroha 1 was suffeiing miich. from rheumatism, which prevented my sleeping at night, and made walking during the day a difficulty ; but from usmg No. 2 bath for a little over three weeks the pains have entiiely loft my head, and do not give any uneasiness in my feet ; in fact, I may safely and truly say lhat at present I am completely cuifed and grently improved in health." Mr Geokge Rickbtts, of Auckland, writes : " I cannot speak too highly of these baths On my arrival ar Te Aroha I was suiieiing agony from rheumatism in the feet, so much so that. I could scarcely put them to the ground. In the short space of three days I^feel myself almost completely cured." Db W, B, Ehsok, of Oveijunga, Aucic I,a.nd. •' rhe'.'analysia of the springs* at Te Aroha, and the highly medicinal -value of their, constituents at once indicate ar esidence here, and a course of judicious treatment, as the ' El Dorado ' for the majority of unfortunate sufferers in most forms of rhematisra, gout, a larj,e number kidney affections, find 1 ist, but not least, that common ' ill which fleal] jb heir to ' — d^gpepsia."
