, Medical MORE TESTIMONY! NOT A SURPRISING CURE ■ TO THOSE WHO KNOW WHAT HITCHENS' T> LO 0 D TpESTORER HAS DONE. IN the Auckland Eymjikg Stab of the 27th April last appeared the following local, which explains itself:— ."The brig Bella Mary, from Melbourne in ballast, bound for Eaipara, 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 vojageV. Captain Owen, who has followed the 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 the cabin quite helpless. The. vessel was off Eaipara at noon, on Thursday last,, but thegweather being thick and foggy,,it -was deemed advisable to come oh 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, con* eiders 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 Worry to learn of his affliction.'?, m ■ - „. .-;• ;> ,_. -.: .;,..,;.,- ---; Keferring to abore, Captain Owen has this I day llai December) stated: •' After being Ideated 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 affect of the galvanic battery, I felt a gradual sinking that told me the dread end was not far'off,'and one of tuy visiting friends suggested that I Bhould try what Hitchens' Blood Restorer would do, as it was being so talked abdtit far and wide. Without much faith-in it, I consented to try it, but did not notice, any good effect until I h<d taken about the third or fourth bottle, when my appetite decidedly quickened, and I felt that my streagth was coming back to me. I then ceased to take the medicine, and allowed nature to take its course, but finding , my appetite going, .1 stimulated it by smalt; doses of the Restorer, using no other mcdi- i cine, but applying the Ointment freely. By degrees my whole system seemed to be mvi- j gorated; atid now, after a treatment,of. six months, I am able to resume charge .^f my veasel, and am-only waiting her 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 thkt I should publicly | testify to the extraordinary power of Hitchen's Blood Restorer over the severest cases of rheumatism. - - • I W.

NATHAN & CO., Auckland. (Copy.) Mr D. B. : CHiaHOiar,' 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 rbeumalic fever) under its treat-, ment, 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 is inestimable. —Believe me, yours very sincerely, Thomas Bbown, Brittania Height*, Nelson. ■' Sole agent for the Thames District for the Medicinal Blood Restorer, J.
