" Tlie^e Waters are all feebly alkaline and strongly ehniged with caibonic acid gas, which is constantly escaping from the Springs in laige quantities. The Lithia, a valuable constituent of these Waters, is present in an appreciable quantity. Tho Anul.v^s show these Springs to be very similar m rompuoition. These Mineral Waters are exceedingly interesting, and \*ill prove of gicat v.iluo medicinally. They closely resemble some of the European Mineral Spiings so justly celebi af eel, more especially those of VicLr. , Ems, andFachingen. Their Curative Value" will lie greatest in liheumatic and Avthiitic -Disease*., Calculus, Affections of the Kidney*, and Dy^pep la. Tou may rest assured that all \ou <an do for your Springs in the bhape of impio\in<i the facilities for their use, is entiiely justified by the character of the water,"

IMPORTANT TESTIMONY AS TO THE VALUE OF THE BATHS, &c. Sir James Hector states:—" T-hey are similar to the waters of Vichy and Chandesaignes, iii France ; Bilin, : Bohemia ; Ems, Nassau; and are ' besides quite equa] to them in strength.", The j following brief extracts are selected from among some hundreds of testimonials of a similar character which havo been given rom time to time : ' * , Fhoji ' Bishop Hadmeld, Wellington. 'Haviqg been atTeAioha four weeks, and having obtnined great relief feom the use of bath No. 3, I think it well to add my lextimony to that of triers which you have aheady le cened. Having had a very seveie fall, which occ-isioned me much pain in my back an.l considerable inconvenience, and which in eapd itated mo for any exertion for nine weeks, lam now almost entiiely free from ■ pain.andam ableto walk a moderate tbstancp." From: Me J. Hollow at, Managei of the Bank of New Zealand, Nelson : " I feel I ought to place on record my liigh appreciation of 'the waters of ;your justly famous baths For 'many months past I have suffered from a severe attack of sciatica and lumbago, endin" latterly in complications of scarcely less pain'full nature. After about a month's residem c af Te Aioha, I am thankful to say I can move about with considerable ease, while the pi n fiom which I have sufioi\>cl so long lias almost left n^e. It will bo my pleasure as well as my duty to recommend all my friends who miy be in sesirch of health to try the waters of Te Aroha." J Fkom Captain T, Fiusee, M.L.C. Dtjxkdin, j " I shall be pleaded if you will gne me an opportunity of publiirly expressing my opinion lof the Te Aroha Springs. Since my residence at Te Aioha, from what I have seen and heaid, I am convinced that these springs contain extraoidinary curative pvopei ties for the following complaints : Suppressed gouf,, lhcumafi-m in ail its forms, dyppep&ia, and cutaneous disorders; and as the springs aie proved to contain heavy traces of lithia, they must becflmcious in renal complaints. Wherever I i^o I shall, m the interests of humanity, make known the special virtues of Te Aroha Spiings." From Mr Baljtour. Manager of theßatjk ofK.Z., Napiek. "I wish to testify to the very great relief I have experienced from using the Te Aroha hot batlib\ I have been subject for many years to rheumatism ? and'inApiii last had a very severe attack, which proved obstinute to shaLp off, and after trying vain y many remedies, was ordered to the hot springs. Wbenl armed at le Aroha T was suifoing much from lheurnalisrn, which prevented my sleeping at night, and mude walking during the day a difficulty ; but from using No. 2 bath for a little over three ■weeks the pains hate entiiely left my head, and do not give any ••uneasiness in my feet. ; in fact, I may safoly and truly &ay that at piesent I am completely cured aud greatly improved in health." Jin George Bickexts, of Auckland, writes : ;". I cannot spea-k. too highly of these baths On my arrival at Te Aioha I was suffering agony fiom rheumatism in the feet, so much so that I could scarcely put them to the gi ound. In the thoit space of thiee clays I feel mysajf almost completely cured." Dit W, E. Eiisoir, of Onehtjnga, Adck jjxmy. " The analysis of the bprn g'-s at To Arol*a,' and the highly medicinal value of, theii constituents at once indicate ar esideuce heie. and a course of judicioua treatment, as the ' El JDovauo ' for ihe majority of unfortunate sufferers in most forms of rl em'atiem. gout, a large number kidney affect ons, and last, but nofc least, that common ' illjwbiich fiefch ia heir to ' — dyspepsia."
