IMPORTANT TESTIMONY AS TO TIIE VALUE OF THE BATHS, JLc. Sir Japes Hector states:—" They are similar to the waters ofVichy and Ohandesai^nes, in France ; BiUn, Boliernia ; Ems, Nassau ; and are besides quite equal j to them in streniath.' 1 The following brief extracts are selected from among some hundreds of testimonials of a simiWir character which have been given torn time to tune : Frosi Bishop Hadfield, Wellington. ' Having been nt Te Aroha four weeks, and having obt lined great relief feom the use of bath No 3, I think it well to add my testimony to that of thers whioh you have already re ( eixed. Having had a very seveie fall, which occ sioned me much pain in my back and con&ideiable inconvenience, and which in capa itated me for any exertion for nine weeks, I »m now almost entirely free from pain.andam ableto walk a moderate distance." From Mb J llolloway, Manager of the Bank of New Zealand, Nelson : " I feel I ought to place on record my high appreciation of the 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 les* painfull nature. After about a month's lesidenre af Te Aroha, I am thankful to sny I can move about with considerable ease, while the pi n from which I have 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, Fkakkr, M.L.C. Dttnmdin, " 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 J have seen and hoard, I am convinced that thee springs contain extraoidinary curative pioperfcies for tie following complaints : Suppressed gou)., rheumatism in all its forms, dyspepsia, and cutaneous disorders ; and as the springs are proved to contain heavy traces of lifchia, they must be effiacious in renal complaints. Wherever I go I shall, in the interests of humanity, make known the special viituea of the Te Aroha Springs." From Mr Balttotjk, Manager of the Bank opN.Z., Napier. "I wish to testify to the very grear relief I have experienced from using the Te Aroha hot baths. I have been subject for many years to rheumatism, an-1 in Apiil la»l had a very severe attnek, which proved ol stinntc to rhalce off, and after trfing vainly many remedies, was ordered to the hot springs. When I arrhed at Te Aroha 1 was suffering much from rheumatism, which prevented my sleeping at night, and made walking during the day a diflicultv ; but from using No. 2 bath for a little over thiee -weeks the pains have entiiely left my head, »nd do not give any uneasiness in my iee\, ; in fact, I may safely and tiuly bay that at present I am completely cured and greatly improved in health." A'lk G/eoiige Ricketts, of Auckland, writes : " 3 cannot speak too highly of these baths On my arrival at Te Aroha I was suiforintj ugony from rheumatism in the feet, no milch bo thai 1 could scarcely put them to the ground. In the phort space of three days I myself almost completely cured." Dli W. R, EKSOK, 01!" OvEHUNGA, AUCTS> lavd. " The analysis ot the springs at Te Aioha, and the highly medicinal value of th"ir constituents at once indicate ar efcidence here, and a cours-* of judicious treatment, as tho ' El Dorado ' for themajoiity of unfortunate sufferers in most forms of rhematism, gout, a larpe nnmber kidney affections, and lnst, bur. not least, that common ' ill which flesh is heir to ' — dyspepsia."
