After about g month’s residence at Te Aroha, I am thankful tg say I can move about with considerable; ease, while the pain from which I ha.ve.Suffered so long has almost left me. It will be my pleasure as well as my duty to recommena all my ; friends who may be in searoh of health to try the waters of Te Aroha. ... From Captain T.FrAseb, M.L.C.

When I arrived at Te Aroha I was suffering much from rheumatism, which prevented my sleeping at night, and made 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 j in fact, I may safely and truly say that at present I am compla jel» cured and greatly improved in healthy .DR W, R, EBSON OP land.
