V^;V' NOT A' SP^PRIf ING CURE TO THOSE WHO KNOW WH&T I ;T> L G O:D T) E" "S T O RE it HAS DONE. .> IN the Auckland Evening Stab of the 27th April last appeared the following local, which explains itself:— "The brig Bella Mary, from Melbourne in: ballaßt, bound for Kaipara, pub into: harbour yesterday morning to obtain medical aid for Captain Owen, master of the Teasel, who hasi been very unwell during the latter part of the voyage. . Captain Owen, who has followed the;%'efifaring profession for "many years, and had neve.r until leading Melbourne on April 10th Jast, suffered from illness of any severe nature, was suddenly seized on that date with, violent pains in the back. Since then he has been Bvung up in a hammock in" the cabin: quite helpless. The vessel waß off Kaipara at noon "on Thursday last,.but the weather being, thick and foggy, it was deemed advisable to come on to Auckland for medical assistance. The barque arrived early yesterday morning, and Dr. Moore having been sent for, visited Captain-Owen, and gave instructions to the rr.ate!of,j.he vessel regarding treatment. The invalid i"a Buffering;from a speciesSbf rheumatism of"'■'a'feVere nature, and' the * doctor*coa'sidera it advisable to effect a partial recovery before attempting y^e.removal of his patient to more suitable quarters on shore. Captain Owen is well known in Auckland, and rnauy residents will .be sorry io learn of hia affliction." ■ * ■ ■ -i '■> ■-. '■' ": • J ■■■ Referring to above, Captain Owen has this „day, (Ist, December) stated: "After benig 'treated for about five weeks by two* medical men successively, with very little alteration in my condition, except that the pain in my hands and back was made somewhat easier through; the effect of the galvanic battery, - Jj felt a gradual sinking that told mo the dread end was not far off, and one of my visiting friends suggested that I should try what Hitehenß': Blood Restorer would do, as it, was being so talked about far. and wide. Without much faith in iti, I consented to try it, but did not notice any good effect until I hid taken about the third or fourth bottle, when my appetite decidedly quickened, and I felt that my strength was coining back to me. I then ceased lo take the medicine, and allowed nature to take its course, but fiading my appetite going, l' stimulated it by small doses of the .Restorer, using no other medicine, but applying the Ointment freely. By degrees my whole system seemed to be mvi■- ■ gorated j and now, .aftor a treatment of six months, I am able to resume charge of my vessel, and am only; waiting hers; arrival in port to do so. I can easily walk four miles a day without the slightest inconvenience. I consider my friend's suggestion saved my life, and that it is a duty that I'should publicly testify to the extraordinary-power of Hitchea'd Blood Restorer over the severest oiMs of rheumatism. W. M. OWEN. The agents will be happy to sh w original manuscripts of the several published testimonials anent the Remedy; .with scores of other's not yet published. L. D. NATHAN & CO., Auckland. (Copy.) Mr D. R. Ohisholu:, Agent for Mr Hitohbsts.—Dear Sir,—lt is with heartfelt thanka that I am able to endorse the sterling qualities of. Mr Hitchens's invaluable Blood Restorer. Being induced by Mr Disher, who spoke in eulogistic terms of its merits, to place my wife (wbo was suffering very acutely with rheumatic fever) under its treatment, I am very happy to state the medicine has acted quite magical. After a few doses pain entirely ceased, and she is making rapid, progress, and is now enabled- to resume her household duties. Acting so beneficially, 1 would not be without such a valuable remedy, and should impreßß upon those who are similarly suffering not to overlook this sptoific, which is inestimable.—Believe me, yours very sincerely, ThoMAB Bbown, Brittania Heights, Nelson.
