THE VEDEE VIBRATOR.

o A MASTERTON RESIDENT SPEAKS. "If Uhe Vedee had not come along when it did, I should now either have been in the cemetery or in the lunatic asylum." Thus spoke Geo. Watson,'jur., a well-known resident of Masterton, of the Wairarapa Daily Timesj to a gathering of newspaper representatives at his bedside a few mornings ago. The tale that Mr Watson tells is one> that should bring hope to the hearts of many sufferers; some weeks ago this unfortunate man was stricken with a very bad attack of Sciatica, combined with Neutritis.' 1 ' As usually happens in these cases, the trouble came on gradually,, but about five weeks it reached the stage where Mr Watson was obliged to take to his 'bed. The pain during this time was almost unbearable. The patient tells how his brother-in-law came and lived with him, and how he and his wife sat up nights trying every remedy under the sun whidh might possibly ease the pain. At times the pain was so great that Mr Watson became more like a raving nmniac than a human being. Like a great many other people, he had read in the Wellington papers about ithe doings of the Veedee, but, and in this he was no different from many " others, he had his doubts. "I remembered," said he, "when I was I a hoy many healers coming to town and claiming to perform all sorts of miracles. (Therefore, I didn't take very much stock of what tho\i told me about the Veedee. My wife kept on insisting, though, that I should give it a trial. She s*id, 'lt may not do you any good, but at least it will do no harm, and anything is better than going on the wav you are now.' I was, therefore, just oil the point of being taken to Wellington, when I heard of the Veedee demonstration (here. I counted the hours until the expert should arrive in Masterton. They did not reach town until late last Tuesday afternoon, but they promised they would send someone out to me after their Town Hall Demonstration. The Veedee man came and gave me a treatment with the machine, and lor the first time in five weeks, I slept two hour* that night. T ought to tell you that for some time I had what appeared to be *a ball of fire 1 on the sole of rov foot. Day and night I hud hot compresses and plasters on this, without the slightest effect. I sa id to the V»o dee man: 'For God's sake shift that if you can!' Well, gentlemen, in two treatments that ball of fire was gone. "I have now been having treatment for four days, morning and night, and although I am not vet able to walk nearly all the pain has gone, and I can ) sleep right through the night without trouble." "I honestly, believe that if the Veedee had not come along just when it did I should now have been either in the cemetery or in a lunatic asylum, in- ' stead of calmly lying here and telling ' you what a -wonderful thing Veedee has done for me. I think that the Veedee people should have a man permanently - m Masterton, and although I am a poor man [ will gladly start the subscrip- '' tion to cover his first year's salary with' ' a idO note." 'Mr Watson's case i s certainly a r L - ! mark-able instance of the powers of ' Veedee Vibration. It is the'more re- ' marknhie irom the fact that for weeks ' he ,iad been trying all sorts of treat- s aj*,w^ f The Veedee Specialists at al« that in ] a case such as this, where Sciatica is ' f •omplieatPd wit], X eur iti Si Hls nccr ." t ran- to treat Neuritis first before- it i is poss.ble to hammer away the Seltiea ' ter of dn7g Mmi Mr . feet agam, and able to j.
