Medical MORE TESTIMONY 1 NOT A SURPRISING CURE TO THOSE' WHO KNOW WHAT HITGHENS' TjLOOD T)E STOBEE HAS DONE. IN the Auckland Evehing Stah of the 27th April iaefe 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, master of tbe vessel, who has been very unwell during the latter part of the voyage. Captain Owen, who has followed the se/jfaring profession for many years, and had never until learing 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 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, it was deemed advisable to come oa 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 the vessel regarding treatment. The 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 Ito 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 aud back was made somewhat easier through the Bffect 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 Btrength vrus coining back to me I then ceaaed to take the medicine, and allowed nature to take its course, but Ending my appetite going, I stimulated it by small doses of the Restorer, using no other medicine, but applying the Ointment freely. By degrees my whole system seemed to bo 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 milea 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'a Blood Restorer over the severest cuees of rheumatism. W. M. OWEN. The agents will be happy to show original manuscripts of the several published testimonials anenfc the Remedy, with scores of others not yet published. . l. d. Nathan & co., Auckland. (Copy.) MrD. R. Chiqhoim, Agent for Mr HiTOHKNa.—Dear Sir,—lt is with heartfelt thanks that I am able, to endorse the j sterling qualities of Mr Hitchenß's invaluable Blood Restorer. Being induced by Mr Disher, who spoke in eulogistic terms of its merits, 'Hajkjpjftce BJy w^e (w^° was sl3^6".11^ TerJ 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 nob 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, TnuMAS Bbown, Brittania Heights, Nelson.
