"These Waters are all feebly alkaline and ptrongly charged wirh carbonic acid e as < which is constantly escnpm° from the Springs in large quantities. The Lithia, a valuable constituent of thes-e Water •<, is present in an appreciable quantity. The An-ilv^is. show these Springs to be very similar in conmosition. These Mineral Waters are exceedingly interesting, and will prove of p % 'eat value medicinally. They closely resemble some of the Euiopean Mineral Springs so justly celebrated, moic especially those of V<ehy, Ems, andFachingen. Their Curative Value will be gieatest in Eheumatic and Arthritic Diseases, Calculus, Affections of the Kidneys, and Dys~ pep m. You may rest assured th>u all you can do for your Springs in fhe shape of impioving the facilities for their use, is entirely justified by the chaiaeter of the water," IMPORTANT TESTIMONY AS TO THE , VALUE OF THE BATHS, &c.

Sir James Hector sta.tes :—" They are similar to the waters of Vichy and Chandesaignea, in France ; Bilin, Bohemia ; Ems, Nassau ; and are besides quite equal f to them in strength." The following brief extracts are selected from among somehundieds of testimonials of a similar character which have been given rom time to time : From Bishop Hadpielt>, Wellington, ' Having been at Te AroLa four wcefcp, and having obtnined great relief feom the use of bath No. 3, I think it well to add my testimony to that of thers which you have aheudy ie eeived. Having had a "very seveie fall, which occasioned me much' pain in my back ami considerable inconvenience, and which in capafitated me for any exertion for nine weeks, I am now almost entirely free from pain,tuulam ableto walk a moderate distance." Fnoii Mb J Hollowat, 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 h-we suffered from a severe attack of sciatica and lumbago, ending latterly in complications of scaicely les? painfull nature. After about a month's residenr-e af Te Aroha, I am thankful to say 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." i From Captain T, Fraseb, M.L.C. Dtjnmdin, | " I shall be pleased if you will give me an ! opportunity of publicly expressing my oirinion of the Te Aroha Springs. Since my residence at Te Aroha, from what I have seen and heard, I am convinced that thet-e springs ' contain extraordinary curative properties for the following complaints : Suppressed gout, rheumatism in all its fomr?, dyspepsia, and cutaneous disorders: and as the springs ai'e proved to contain heavy traces of iithia, they must be cfQaciou3 in renal complaints. Wherever Si go I shall, m the interests of humanity, make known the special virtues of the Te Aiolia Springs." Feom Mb liAi/Fotm, Manager of the Bank orN Z., Napier. " I wish to testify to the very great relief I have expet ienced feom using the Te Aroha hot baths. I have been subject for many years to rheumatism, and in April hist had a very severe attack, which proved obstinate to chake off, and after trying vainly many remedies, was ordered to the hot springs. When I arrived at Te Aroha I was suffering much from rheumatism, which prevented my sleeping at night, und made walking during the day a difficulty ; but from using Ko: 2 bath fqr a little over three weeks the pains have entirely left my head, nnd do not give any uneasiness in my feer ; in fact, I may safely and truly say that at present I am completely cured and greatly improved in health." Mk Q-eoegk 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 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." Dlt W. B, EIiSW, OP OfiJEIIUNCtA, AOCK lanj). " The analysis of the springs at Te Aioha, and the highly medicinal value of their constituents at once indicate ar esidonce here, and a course of judicious treatment, as the *El Dorado ' for » he majority of unfortunate buffered in most forms or rhematism, gout, a large number kidney affections, and i -si. Imtnot least, that common 'illjwhioh flesh is hoir to '— dyspepsia."
