Your lozenges have done wonders in relieving my terrible cough. Since I had the operation of * Tracheotomy' (the same as the late Emperor of Germany, and unlike him, thank God, I am still alive) performed at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, no one could possibly have had a more violent cough; it was so bad at times that it quite exhausted me.

The following ie one \l of the many testimonials :— ! Christchurch, November 30, J 894 I have great pleasure in testifying to the good results obtained from the course of baths and treatment adopted at Mr Rule's Hydropathic Establishment. My wife had sustained a very severe attack of bronchitis and congestion of the lungs, and was evidently sinking from exhaustion when she became an inmate of the above institution. After a fortnight's baths and skilled nursing she quite recovered and was able to resam9 her domestic duties, Too mnch cannot be said in praise of the care and attention bestowed upon patients by Mr and Mrs Rule and trained nurses and both attendants engaged.—E H Brown. w. elule, PROPRIETOR ' o_n:k woj?2_d, T COME to you with a small affair ;- that you may need. In England, the Continent, and many foreign countries myself and wares are well known. Many American families on their return from abroad bring my articles with them, for they know them pretty well, but you may not be one of these. Confidence between man and man is slow of growth, and when found, its rarity makes ifc»valuable. I ask your confidence and make a reference to this Journal to endorse that confidence, I do not think it will be misplaced, I make the best form of cure—an absolute one—for biliousness and headache that can be found in this year. The cure is so small in it self, and yet its comfort to you is so great—twenty minutes being its limit when relief comes—that it has become a marvel of its time. One and a half grains of medicine, coated with sugar is my remedy, in the shape of one small pill, known to commerce as Dr Haydock's New Lives Pill, It is old in the market of Europe, but is new to North America. The price is as low as an honest medicine can be sold at, 25 cents. Send a postal card for a sample vial, to try ";hem, before you purchase.
