Medical MOEE TESTIMONY! NOT A SUEPEISING CUBE TO THOSE WHO KNOW WHAT KITCHENS* T) L O OD p E BTOB E B HAS DONE. IN the Auckland J.TBKiKa £tat* of the 27th April last appeared the following local, which explains itself:— "The brig^Bella Mnry, from Melbourne in ballast, bound for Kaipara, put into harbour yesterday morning to obtain medical aid for Captain Owen,-master of tbe veaiel, vrlib has been very unwell during the latter part of the voynge. Captain Owen, who hss followed the ee>.fating profession for uatiy yearn, and had never iiiitil leaving Melbourne on April 10th last, suffered from illness oi any severe nature, was suddenly seized on that date with violent pains in tbe back. Since then he has been swung up in a hammock in tbe cabin quite helpless. Tbe vessel was off Kaipara at 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 been sent for, visited Captain Owen, and guve instructions to the mate of the vessel regarding treatment. The invalid it suffering from a species of rheumatism of a severe nature, and the doctor con* aiders 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 •fflic tion." 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 toy condition, except that tbe 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 my visiting friends suggested that I should try what Hitchens' 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 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, I stimulated it by small doses of tbe Restorer, using no other medicine, but applying the Ointment freely. By degrees my whole system seemed to be mvi* gorated; 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 my friend's suggestion saved my life, and that it is a duty that I should publicly testify to the extraordinary power of Hitehen's Blood Restorer over the severest cases of rheumatism/ W.
