Medical MORE TESTIMONY! NOI A BURPEISING CURE TO THOSE WHO KNOW WHAT HITOHENB' "DLOOD T>ESTORER 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 ballast, bound for Kaipara, put into harbour yesterday morning to obtain mrdicnl aid for Captain Ow^n, maetir of the vessel, who lias been very unwell during the la<fer part of the TOjßge, Captain Owen, who has followed the ee:faring'profession for many years, and bad never until Iraring Melbourne on April 10th last, suffered from illness of any severe nature, was suddenly seized on that date with violent painß 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, ib was deemed-advisable to come oh to Auckland for medical assistance. The barque arrived early yesterday morning, and Dr. Moore hnviug bf>en sent for, visited Captain Owen, and gave instructions to the mate of the vessel regarding-treatment. The invalid is Fuffering 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." 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 attention in my condition, except that the pain in my hands and back was made somewhat easier through the effect of the galvanic 1 battery, I felt a gradual finking,that,told me the. dread end was not far off, and one of uiy visiting friends suggested that I should try what Hitchens' JBlood 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 h d taken about, the third or fourth bottlp, 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, b»t finding my nppetite going, I stimulated it by email doses of the Restorer, using no other medicine, but applying the Ointmonfc freely. By degrees my wbole system seemed to be invigorated ; and now, after a treatment of six months, I am able to resume charge of mv vessel,'and am only waiting her arrival in port to do'so. I can easily walk four m les a day without the slightest inconvenience. I consider my friend's suggestion saved my life, and that it is a duty that, 1 should publicly testify to the extraordinary power of Hitcheu's Blood Restorer over the severest cases of rheumatism. W. M. OWEN. The agents will bo happy to eh w original manuscripts of the several published testimonials anent the Remedy, with scores of others not yet published. l. d. Nathan &.co., Auckland. (Copy.) Mr D.' B. Chishoim, Agent for Mr HlTCHEtfs.—Dear Sir,—lt is with heartfelt thank* that ,1 am able to endorse the sterling qualities of Mr Hitchens's invaluable Blood Restorer. Being induced by Mr Diaher, 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 }he medicine huß 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.
