" Thece "Waters are all feebly alkaline and "tronjjly charged with carbonic acid gas, which is constantly escaping from the Springs in large quantities. The Lithia, a valuable constituent of these Waters, is present in an appreciable quantity. The Analysis show these Springs to be very similar in composition. These Mineral Waters are exceedingly interesting, and will prove of great value medicinally. They closely resemble some of the European Mineial Springs so justly celebrated, more esperiiilly those of Vichy, Ems, andFachinpen. Their Curative Value will be greatest in Rheumatic and Arthritic Diseases, Calrulus, Affections of the Kidneyp, and Dys~ pep ia. You mavre«r assured that all you ran do for your Springs in the shape of improving the facilities for their use, is entirely justified by the ehai actor of the water,"

IMPORTANT TESTIMONY AS TO THE VALUE OF THE BATHS, &c. Rir James Hector states:—" They are similar to the waters of Vichy and Chandesaignes, in France ; BiUn, Bohemia ; Elms, Nassau ; and are besides quite equal 3 to them in strength." The following brief extracts are selected from among somrhundieds of testimonials of a similar character which have been given rora time to time : Feom Bishop Hadfield, Wellington. 'Having been tit Te Aroha four week?, and hav-' ing obti'ined great relief feom the use of bath No. 3, I think it well to add my .testimony to that of thera which you have already re rei\ed. Having had a veiy seveie fall, which of-c .s'onecl me much pain in my baqk and consumable inconvenience, ami which in capn it a led me for any exertion for nine weeks, I'im now almost entirely free from pain, and am ahleto walk a moderate distance." From Mrt J Uolloway, Manager of the Bank oi'New Zealand, Kelson : " I feel I ought to place on record my high appieciation 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 less painfnll nature. After about a month's residence ( af Te Aroha, I am thankful to say I can move about with fonsi dei able 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 m spuich of health to try the waters of Te Aroha." Feom Captain T, Fbasee, M.L.C. Dtjnedin, " I shall he 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 the^e springs contain extraordinary curative properties for tho following complaints : Suppressed gout, rheumatism in all it a forms, dyspepsia, and cutaneous disorders ; and as the springs are proved to contain heavy traces of lithia, they must beeffiacioU9 in jenal complaints. Wherever I go I shall, in the interests of humanity, make known the special virtues of the Te Aroha Springs." Fitoat Mr Bauotjb, Manager of the Bank of N.Z., Napier. "I wish to testify to the very great relief I ha\o experienced from using the Te Aroha hot baths. I have been subject for many years to rheumatism, and in April last had av ery severe attack, which proved obstinate to nhake 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, nnd made walking during the day a difficulty ; but from using No. 2 bath for a little over thrpe weeta the pains have entirely left my head, nnd do not give any uneasiness in my feet ; in fact, I may safely and truly say that at present I am completely cured and greatly improved in health." Mh Gkokge Ricketts, of Auckland, writes : "I cannot speak too highly of these baths On my arrival at Te Aroha I was suffering agony from rheumatism in the feot, so much so that I could scarcely put them to the ground. Tn the short snace of threo dayß I feel myself almost completely cured." Dk W, 11, Erson, of OxTtftuNaA, Auck iani>. " The analvßis of the springs at Te Aroha, and the highly medicinal value of their constituents at once indicate ar esidence here, and a course of judicio'is treatment, as the ' El Dorado ' for ihe majority of unfortunnte sufferers in most forms of rhematisnj, gout, a large number kidney affections, and last, but not least, that common 'ill which flesh is heir to '—dyspepsia," a
