Tho Lithia, a valuable constituent oC the3e Waters, is preeenb ,in an appreciable quantity. Tho Anulysis^show these Springs to be very similar in composition. These Mineral Waters, are exceedingly ; interesting, and will -prove of greqt value ! medicinally. They closely* resemble some of I the European Mineral Springs so justly, celebrated, more especially those of Vichy, Ems, andFachinaen. Their Curative Value will be I greatest in Rheumatic and Arthritic Diseases, [ Calculus. Affections of the Kidneys, and Dys~ I pep ia. You may rest assured that all you can I do for your Springs in the shape of impioving <he facilities for their use, is entirely justified bv the character of the water,"

Sir James Hector states :—" They are similar to the waters of Vichy and Ohandesaignes, in France ; Bilin, Bohemia ; Nassau ; and are besides quite equa] to them in strength." The following brief extracts are selected from araon? some hundreds of testimonials of • similar character which havo been given roni time to time : •Fbom Bishop Hadfield, Wellington. ' Having been at Te Aroha four weeks, and having obtained great relief feom the use of hath. Ko. 3, I think it well to ado* my testimony to that of thers which you have already re oeived. Having had a very severe fall, which occasioned me much pain in my back and considerable inconvenience, and which in capa'itp.ted mo for any exertion for nine weeks, I am now almost entirely free from pain,andam able to walk amoderafedisfanco." FaoM Mn J. Holloway, Manager of the Bank of New Zealand, Nelson : " I feel I oughi to place on record my high appreciation of the wateis 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 loss painfull nature. After about a month's residence af Te Aroha, I am thankful to Bay I can move about with considerable ease, while the pi n from which I have BUfferad so long has almost left me. It will be my pleasure as well as my duty to lecommend all my friends who may be in sewoh of health to try the waters of Te Aroha."

From Captain T, Phases, M.L.C. Dunedin, " I shall be pleased if you will give^ tne an opportunity of publicly expressing my opinion of the Te Ajroha, Spiings. Since my residence at Te Aroha, from -what I have seen and heard, I am convinced that these springs contain extraordinary curative properties for the following complaints : Suppressed gout* rheumatism in all its forms, dyspepsia, and cataneoiiß disorders ; and aB the springs are proved to contain heayy traces of lithia, they must beeffitcious in renal complaints. Wherever I go I shall, in the interests of humanity, make knows the- special virtues of the Te ; Aroha Springs."

I have been subject fornaany years to rheumatism, and in Aprii last had a very severe attack, which prored obstinate to fhake of!, and after trying vainly many remedies, was ordered to tlie hot (tprings. When I 'arrived at Te Aroha T was Buffering much from rheumatism, which prevented my sleeping jat^night;, and made walking during the day & difficulty ; but from ufiirig No. 2 bath for a lit Up oveif three the pains haTe entirely lett my head, nnd clo not give any uiiea'sfriess in my feet ; in fact, I may safely and truly say that at present I am completely cured ancl greatly improved in health." Me Geokgb Ejcketts, of Auckland, writes : " I cannoib speak too highly, of r theße bathsOn my arrival at Te Aroha I was suffering ngony from rheumatism in the feet, so much 1 no that. I could scarcely put them to the,ground. In the Bhort space of three days I feel myself almost completely cured." , a De W. Fv. Ersok, op Onehtjngu., Auck land. " The analysis of the .springs at Te Aroha, niad the highly medicinal value of their constituents at onre indicate ar esidence heie, and a coursp of judicious treatment, as the ' El Dorado ' for the majority of unfortunnte suffeiers in most forms of rhematism, gout, a lafnre number kidney affections, and last, l»ut not least, that common ' illjwhich flesh is h?ir to ' — dyspepsia."
