Medical ""'/" MORE TESTIMONY! NOT A SURPRISING CURE TO THOSE WHO KNOW WHAT HITCHENB' TjLOOD TjE STOfiEE HAS DONE. IN the Auckland Evening Star of the 27th April last appeared the following local, which explains itself :— " The brig Bella Mary, from Melbourne in ballast, bound for* Kaipara, put into harbour yesterday morning to obtain medical aid for Captain Owes, master of tbe Teasel, who has been very unwell during the latter part of the voyage. Captain Owen, who has followed tbe seafaring profession for many years, and had never until leafing Melbourne on April 10th last, suffered" from illness of any severe nature, was suddenly seized on that date with violent pains in the back. Since then he has been swung up in a hammock in tbe cabin quite helpless. The vessel was 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 havingbeen sent for, visited Captain Owen, and gave instructions to the irate of tbe vessel regarding treatment. The invalid is suffering from a species of rheumatism of a severe nature, and the doctor considers it advisable to effect a partial recovery before attempting the removal of his patient to more suitable quarters on shore. Captain I Owen is well known in Auckland, and many residents will be sorry to learn of his affliction." Eeferring to above, Captain Owen has this day (Ist December) stated: " After being treated for about five weeks by two medical men successively, with very litrJe alteration in my condition, except that the pain in my hands and back was made somewhat easier through the effect of tbe galvanic battery, I felt a gradual sinking that told me tbe dread end I was not far off, and one of my visiting friends suggested that I should try what Hitchens' Blood Restorer would do, as it was being so talked about far aud wide. Without much faith in it, I consented to try it, but did not notice any good effect until I hid taken about tbe third or fourth bottle, when my appetite decidedly quickened, and I felt that my strength was coming back to me. I then ceased to take the medicine, and allowed nature to take its course, but finding my appetite going, I stimulated it by small dosesof tbe Restorer, ÜBing no other medicine, but applying the Ointment freely. By degrees my whole system seemed to be invigorated ; and now, after a treatment of six months, I am able to reßiime charge of my vessel, and am only waiting her arrival in pott to do so. I can easily.walk four miles a day without the slightest inconvenience. I coneider cuy friend's suggestion saved my life, and that it is a duty that I should publicly testify to the extraordinary power of Hitchen's Blood Restorer over the severest cases 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 others not yet publiabed. j l. d. Nathan & co., Auckland. (Copy.) Mr D. R. Chmholm, Agent for Mr Hitchesb.—Dear Sir,—lt ia with heartfelt thanks that I am able to endorse the sterling qualities of Mr Hitcheris's invaluable Blood Restorer. Being induced by MrDisher, who spoke in eulogistic terms of its merits, to place my wife (who was suffering very acutely with rbeumaiic fever) tinder 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 remody, and should impress upon those who are similarly suffering not to overlook this specific, which is inestimable.—Believe me, yours very sincerely, Th. mas Bbown, Brittania Heights, Nelson.
