Medical MORE TESTIMONY! ' NOT A SURPRISING CURE TO THOSE WHO KNOW WHAT 1 HITQHENS 5 . "DLOODTJESTOEER HAS DONE. \ IN the Auckland Evening Stab of the . J_ 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 i Captain Ow^n, master of the vessel, who has . bt<en very unwell during the latter part of [ the voyage. Capttiin Owen, who has followed , the se faring profession for many years, and 1 had neier until leariug Melbourne on April 10th last, Buffered from illness of any severe nature >: .woB Buddenly seized on that date with • violent pains in the back. Since then he has . been swung up in a hammock in the 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. i The barque arrived early yesterday morning, and Dr. Moore having been sent for, visited Captain Owen, and gave instructions to the 1 mate of the vessel regarding treatment. The invalid is Buffering from a species of rheumatism of aeevere nature, and the doctor cou--1 siders 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 fire weeks by two medical men successively, with very lit!,le alteration in my condition, except that the pain in my hands and back was made somewhat easier through the affect of the galvanic battery, I felt a gradual sinking that told me the dread end was not far off, and one of my visiting friends suggested that I Bhould try what Hitchens' Blood Restorer would do, as" it was being so talked about far and wide. Without much faith in it, I consented to try it, but did not notice any good effoct until I hid taken about the 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 Hading my appetite going, I 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 invigorated ; and now, after a treatment of six months, I am able to resume charge of my vessel, and am only waiting her arriral in port to do co. I can easily walk four m let a day without the slightest incmvenieuce. 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 Hitchen'B Blood Restorer over the severest cases of rheumatism. ■ * W. M. OWEN. The agents will be happy to eh)W original manuscripts of the several published testimonials anent the Remedy, with scores of others nofc yet published. L. D. NATHAN & CO., Auckland. (Copy.) MrD. R. Chishoim, Agent for Mr Hitchems.—Dear Sir,—lt is with heartfelt thanks 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 (who 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 tjeased, 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 impress upon those who are j similarly suffering not to overlook this specific, which is inestimable.—Believe me, yours rery i sincerely, Thomas Brown, Brittania Heights, Melson.
