Medical MOEE TESTIMONY I NOT A . SURPRISING CURE TO THOSE WHO KNOW WHiT HITOHENS' TjLOOD TjE STOEEE HAS DONE. IN the Auckland Etbhino Stab of the 27th April last appeared the following local, which explajns 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 the vessel, who has been 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 laafc, suffered from illness of any severe nature, was suddenly seized on that date with violent pains in the back. SinCeVthen he has been Bwung up in a hammock in the cabin i quite helpless., The vessel waß 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 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 ifc adrieable to effect a partial recovery before attempting the removal of his patient to more suitable quarters on shore. Captain t Owen is well known in Auckland, and many residents will be sorry to learn of his afflici tion." . , Eeferring 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 I Bhould try what Hitchens' Blood Restorer would do, as it was being bo talked about far , and wide. Without much faith in it, I consented to try.it, but did not notice any good effect until I had 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 the Beatorer, using no other medicine, bufc applying the Ointment freely. By ■ degrees my 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 co. I oar^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 Hitchen's Blood Restorer over the Beveresb cases of rheumatism. W. M. OWEN. The agents will be happy to Bhow original manuscripts of the several published testimonials anent the Remedy, with scores of others not yet published. l. jd. Nathan & co., Auckland. (Copy.) Mr D. B. Chhholm, Agent for Mr HiTCHENa.—Dear Sir,—lt is with heartfelt thanks that I am able to endorse the : sterling qualities of Mr Hitchens's invaluable Blood Restorer. 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 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 imprest upon those who are similarly suffering not to overlook this specific, which is inestimable.—Believe me, yours very sincerely, Thomas Beown, Brittania Heights/ Nelson. ■ Solo agent for the Thames District forithe Medicinal Blood Restorer, J.
