THE CURATIVE PROPERTIES OF THE SOLOMON SOLUTION 1 when used oa Horses, Cattle, and clogs may be gathered from the following:— Octavia Villa, Howe Crescent, Albert Park, Melbourne, March 11, 1892 For nearly three years I have been a martyr to Rheumatic Gout. Six months ot that period I had positively lost the use ot my legs, and for two years I have been unable to walk without crutches or sticks. I have had forty-eight electric baths and spent three weeks at the springs at Drysdale. About three weeks ago I was induced to use your Solomon Solution, and am now enabled to walk without any assistance whatever 1 write this trusting that it may be the means of inducing other sufferers to give it a trial I am, sincerely yours, GEORGE A. PATTERSON. CRESS REPORTS.  IBM Melbourne "Sportsman," June 14, 1892 11 Mr Frank O'Donnell, the well-known breeder of Gooroc, Victoria, has a mare by Kohinoor from Lady Hercules, by Hercules from Princess Royal, who some time ago got one of her hind legs entangles in a wire fence, and smashed her shm bone very badly. ±o use Mr O'Donnell's own words ;—' I thought she was past all surgical aid, so bad was the smash. However, having some of the Solomon Solution by me, I tried what it_ would do. Some little time after using that well-known remedy, a piece of bone about four inchea long stuck out of the wound, which has since completely healed. Ihe mare's leg is now as sound as ever it was ! The piece of bone referred to was measured m our presence, ana i is three-eighths of an inch broad in its narrowest part and one inch and a half in its broadest, and is exactly four inches in length. A more marvellous case in which a cure was effected has not come under our notice." Adelaide " Express," April 10, 1893. "In connection with last Saturday's racing on the Old Course, Mr C. N. Kidman, the owner of Lovelocks, attributed the mare's victory in the Steeplechase to the use of Solomon Solution, with which he treated her legs. He also says that by the aid of this valuable remedy he brought round Ellerstone, who scored a recent victory at Port Pine, and he speaks in the highest terms of this restorative, which it will be remembered was tried by Mr Wallace on the champion Carbine, who, however, was suffering from a damaged foot, tor which there wag no cure when he retired from the racing arena, lne Arab, also, who has exhibited such very marked improvement of late, was saved for racing purposes by the use of this Soution, anl his legs were so hv\ that the stanch was verpowering, and in this case the cure appears to hive been a remarkable one.
