Medical MOKE TESTIMONY! MOT A 1 SUSPRISING CUKE TO THOSE WHO KNOW WHAT HITCH ENS' . j)LOOD T) E S.T 0 EE B HAS DONE. \ IN the Auckland Evbsiho Stab of the t X 27t1) April la«t appeared the following: , local, which explains itself:— i " 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 I thVvojage. Captain Owen, Who has followed , the ecu faring profes-ion for many years, and '' had never until leaving Melbourne on April 10th last, suffered from illness of any severe nature, was suddenly seized on that date with . violent paina in the back. Since then he has . been swung op in a hammock in the cabin c quite helpless. The vessel was off Kaipara at > noon on Thursday last, but the weather being > thick and foggy, it was deemed advisable to i come on to Auckland for medical assistance. The barque arrived early yecterday morning,, and Dr. Moore having bees sent for, visited Captain Owen, and gave instructions to the i 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 bis 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 tbo pain in my hands 1 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 should try what Hitchens' Blood Restorer would do, as it was being so talked about far and wide. 1 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 ■ back to me. I then ceased to Uke the meJicine,; and •Hewed nature to take its course, but finding my appetite going, I stimulated it by small doses of the Bestorer, using no other medicine, but applying the Ointment freely. By degrees ray 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 arrival in port to do so. I can easily walk four miles a day without the slightest inconvenience. I consider uiy 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 Bestorer over the severest cases. of rheumatism. 1 W.

(Copy.) Mr D. B. Ohmhoim, Agent for Mr Hitchbkb.—Dear Sir,^-It is with heartfelt thanks that I am able to endorse the sterling qualities of Mr Hitchens's invaluable Blood Bestorer. 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 dose* 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, youre very sincerely, Thomas Bbowk, Brittania Heights.
