- Medical MORE TESTIMONY! ' NOT A SURPBISING CURE TO THOSE ; WHO KNOW WHAT ' HITOHENS' . T)LO O D Tli E STOB El HAS DONE. r IN the Auckland Evening Stab of the b JL I 27th April last appeared the following l 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 Owen, master of the vessel, who has . been very unwell during the latter part of ! the voyage. Captain Owen, who has followed , the seafaring profession for many years, and 1 had never until leafing Melbourne on April . 10th last, suffered from illness of any severe nature, was suddenly Beized on that date with . violent pains in the back. Since then he has > been swung up in a hammock in the cabin f 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 having been sent for, visited Captain Owen, and'gave instructions to the mate of the 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 Owen is well known in Auckland, and many residents will be sorry to learn of his affliction." Referring to above, Captain Owen has this day (Ist December) stated: "After being 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; Bffect 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 should try what Kitchens' 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 effect until I hid taken about the third or fourth bottle, when my appetite decidedly quickened, and I felt that my strength was coming baok 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 doses of the Restorer, using no other medicine, but applying the Ointment freely. By degrees my whole system seemed to be invigorated ; aad now, after a treatment of six months, I am able to resume charge of my vessel, and am only waiting her arrival in port to do bo. 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 tbat I should publicly testify to the extraordinary power of Hitchen's Blood Restorer over the severest cases oi rheumatism. W. M. OWEN. The agents will be happy to shjw original manusoripts of the several published testimoniajs anent the Remedy, with scores of others not yet published. L. D. NATHAN & CO., Auckland. (Copy.) MrD. R. Chishoim, Agent for Mr Hitchenb.—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 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 impress upon those who are similarly suffering not to overlook this specific, which ia inestimable.—Believe me, yours very sincerely, Thohas Bbowjt, Brittania Heights, Nelson.
