Medical MOEE TESTIMONY! ♦ NOT JL SUSP IMS ING CUEE TO THOSE WHO KNOW WHAT KITCHENS' T> LO O D n 1 ST. O RE E HAS DONE. ■■ IN the Auckland EvßHiNe Stab of the 27th April last appeared tho 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 beien very unwell during the latter part of the voyage. Captain Owen, who has followed the seafaring profession for many years, and had never until learing Melbourne on April 10th last, suffered from illness, of any severs nature, was suddenly seized on that date with violent pains in the back. Since then he bas been swung up in a hammock in the cabin quite helpless. , The vessel wasoflL Kaiparaat 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 beea sent for, .visited Captain Owen, and gave instructions) to the mate of the vessel regarding treatment. ('The, invalid is suffering from a species of rheuma* tism 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 effect 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'l should try what Hitohens' 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 1 h>d taken about the third or fourth bottle, when my appetite decidedly quickened, and I felt that my strength was comipg back 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 kdogeai of the Restorer, using no other mcdi* cine, 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 m les a day without the slightest inconvenience. 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's Blood Restorer over the severest cases of rheumatism. * ■ W.

(Copy.) Mr D. R. Chisholm, Agent for jMr B^tchens.—Dear Sir, —It is with heart--3 felt thanks that I am able to endorse the ■ sterling qualities of Mr Hitchens's invaluable Blood Restorer. Being md uoed by Mr Disher, who spoke in eulogistic terms of its merits, to plage my wife (who was Buffering very acutely with' rheumatic fever) under its treatment, I am very happy to state the medioine 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 Bbowx, Brittania Heights, Nelson.
