Meplical MORE TE:>TIMONY! . ' - NOT. A SURPRISING CURE TO THOSE WHO KNOW WHAT HITCHENB' T> L O O D^ T> E S T 0 R E R 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 medical aid for Captain Owen, maßter of tbe vessel, who has been very unwell during tbe latter part of the voyage. ' Captain Owen, who has followed the ee»faring profession for many years, and had never until tearing 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 Bwung up in a hammock in the cabin quite helpless. Tbe .vessel, was off Kaipara at noon ou Thursday laßt, but tbe 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 tbe vessel regarding treatment. Tbe 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 aod 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 frienda suggested.that I should try what Hitcbens' Blood Restorer would do, as it was being so talked about far' aud, 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 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 small doses of the Restorer, using no other medicine, but applying the Ointment freely. By degrees my wtiole system Beemed 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 nviea a day without the slightest inconvenience. I consider uoy friend's suggestion saved my life, and that it is a duty that I should publicly testify to the extraordinary power of Hitohen's Blood Restorer over the severest cu-sea of rheumatism.

(Copy.) Mr D. B. Chisholm, Agent for Mr Hixchess.—Dear Sir,—lt is with heartI felt thanks that I am able to endorse the sterling qualities of Mr Hitchens's invaluable Blood Restorer.' Being induced bj Mr Disher, who spoke in eulogistic terms of its merits, to place my wife (who was suffering very acutely with rhelimaiic 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 bo beneficially, "*1 would not be without such a valuable remedy, and should impress upon those who are similarly sufferiugnot to overlook this sptcific, which is inestimable.—-Believet me, yours very sincerely, Thi>vas Bbowk, Brittama Heights, Nelson.
