Ac. Sir James Hector states:—“ They are similar to the waters of Vichy and Chundesaignes, in Prance ; Bilin, Bohemia; Pros, Nassau ; and are besides quite equal to them in strength-” The following brief extiacts are selected from among some hundreds of testimonials of a similar character which have been given from time to time : yh From Bishop Hadfield, ’Wellington. 1 Having been at Te Aroha four weeks, and having obtained great relief from the use of hath No. 3, I think it well to add my testimony to that of others which you have already received. Having had a very severe fall, which occasioned me much pain in .my back and considerable inconvenience, and which incapa' itated me for any exertion tor nine weeks, lam now almost entirely free from pain.andam ableto walk a moderate distance.” From Mr 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 m ny months past I have suffered from a severe attack of sciatica and lumbago, ending latterly in complications of scarcely less painful nature. After about a month’s residence at Te Aroha, I am thankful to say I can move about with considerable ease, while the ] ain 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.” From Captain T, Fraser, M.L.C. Dunedin, “ I shall be pleased if yon 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 these springs contain extraordinary curative properties for the following complaints : Suppressed gout, rheumatism in all its forms, dyspepsia, and cutaneous disorders and as the springs'are proved to contain "heavy trace's of lithia, they must beeffiacious in renal complaints. Wherever I go I shall, in the interests of humanity make known the special virtues of the Te Aroha Springs.” ■' From Mr Balfour, Manager of the Bank ofN.Z., Napier. “I wish to testify to the very great relief I have experienced from using the Te Aroha hotlbatlis. I have been subject' for many years tfffHfeumatism, and in April last had a very severe attack, whit* i proved obstinate to shake 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, and mado walking during the day a difficulty ; but from using No. 2 bath for a little over three weeks the pains have entirely left my head, and do not give any uneasiness in my feet; in fact, I may safely and truly say that at present I am com pie ,elv cured and greatly improved in health.” Dr W. ft, Erson of Oxehunga, Auck> land. “ The analysis of the springs at Te Aroha, and the highly medicinal value of their constituents at once indicate a residence here, and a course of judicious treatment as the ‘ El Dorado ’.for the majority of unfortunate sufferers in most forms of rheumatism, gout, a, large number of kidney affections, a id Ja : st, but not least, that common ill flesh itheir to—dyspepsia.” 1 ' ,
