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"; Bilin, Boiieinia ; Ems, Nassau ; and -are besides quite ecmal to them in strength." The following brief extracts are selected from among some hundreds of testimonials ot a similur character which have been given rom time to time : From Bishop Habfield, Wellington. 'Having been at Te Aroha four weeks, aud having obtained great relief feom the use of bath' No. 3, I think 1 it well to add my testimony tp that of ' thers which you have already re* ceivfed.' ' Having had a very severe fall, which occasioned me much pain in my back and considerable inconvenience, and which in capa Itated me for any exertion fo!r ' nine 'weeks,- I 'am now almost entirely free from pain,andam ableto walk a moderafedistance." From Hb J Holloway, 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 pa&t I have suffered from a severe attack of sciatica and lumbago, ending latterly in complications of scarcely less painfull natuie. 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 have suffered so long has almost left me. It will be my pleasure aq well as my duty to recommend all my friends who may be in search of health to try the waters of Te Aroha." Fhom Captain T, Frasee, M.L.C. Dttnedin, " I shall be pleased if you will give me an oppoitunity of publicly expressing my opinion of the Te Aroha Springs, bince my residence at Te Aroha, from what I have seen and heard, I am convinced that these Bprhigs contain extraordinary curative properties for , the following complaints : Suppressed > gout, i rheumatism in all its forms, dyspepsia, and cutaneous disorders; and "as the springs are ■.proved to contain heavy' traces of lithia, they must beeffiacious in renal complaints. Whenever I go 1 3hall, m the interests of humanity, make known the special virtues of the Te Aroha Springs." Fhosc Hn Balvour, Manager op tub Bank ofN.Z., Napier. "I -wish io testify to the very great relief I have expeziencer] fzorn using •the Te Aroha hot bath?. I have been subject, iormnny years to rheumatism, and in Ap-ii last had a vc-y severe attack^ which proved obstinate to t»hnke off, and after trying vain y many remediea, was onlercJ to the hut sr»i ings. When I arrived at Te Aroha T was suifeiinp; much fiom rheumatism, which pio\ontod xny sleeping at night, am"! made walking during the day a difficulty ; but from using 2 bath for a little over tLiee "weeks the paina La»e entirely left my head, iind do not give any uneasiness in my ice) ; in f«cfc, I may Rnf-ly and truly suy that .it piesent I am completely ciutd find greatly improved in healtli." Mk G-roKG-E If iciu:tts, of Auckland, writes : " I cannot speak too highly of thcac bathe Oh my snnval at Te Aioha 1 was suffering aj'ony iiom ihcrjniafism in the feet, so much so i hat I could bcaicely put ihemto the ground. In the shoir, spare of three days I feel myself almost completely cured." Dk W. B. Euson, of Onehunga, Auck iam). " The analysis of the springs at Te Aroha, nnd the highly medicinal value of thi-ir constituents at once indicate ar esidene'e heu\ nnd a course of judicious treatment, as • the ' El Dorado ' lor ihi-majoiity of unfortiunate sufieicrs in most foims of lhematism, gout, a large number kidney affections, and last, but not least, that common ' ill whic'i flesh is heir to ' — dyspepsia."
