i,b -XT' I T A D A T 0 THE GREAT HERBAL REMEDY. ANOTHER GREAT TRIUMPH OVS " HYDATIDS" A grateful Patient gives unsolicited and valuable testimony to the efficacy of this pieat Herbal J>m«Hv. Read carefully and inves igate for yourself. 29 Packingaton sh, St. kilda. Mr S A Palmer, Vitadatio Institute, Bourke at Sir, —As I consider Webbers' Great Herbal Remedy, "Vitadafcio," has been the sold means of saving my life I think the least I can do is to hand you this testimonial, bo that others suffering the same as myself may know that there is a certain reliable cure for them m " Webber's Vitadatio," if ib is only given a fair trial. The simple facts of my case are as follows:—For the pasb 10 years I have been under thetreatmentofdootors m Fitzroy j and St. Kilda, as well as some of the best m Collins Btreet. Some were of opinion that I | was suffering from consumption, whilst | others stated It was pleurisy. At any rate they could give me no relief, let alone cure me. You can easily imagine that I had little hope of ever being oured. But one day I noticed an advertised oirre by "Webber's Vitadatio," and the symptoms of the patient being somewhat similar to my own, I thought I would give ib a trial, with the result 'that much taking only two large bottles, I felt after, better, and continued the medicine. By the time I had taken eight bottles I was wonderfully recovered, but one day took very ill, and vomited up a lot ol slimy matter, which was afterwards examined by the doctor, and pronounced to bo Hydatids. I continued to vomifc those "Hydatida" for some time, bub at last it died away. This naturally left me weak, but I continued with the "Vitadatio," and gradually my strength returned, until to-day I can honestly state I have never felt better m the whole of my life. I consider " Webber's Vitadatio" a miracle-worker. I am well-known m Fitzroy, and there are many others just as much astonished at my cure as I am. I shall be pleased to speak to anyone and give them my own experience of the worth of *• Webber's Vstadaiio." You are at perfect liberty to make what use you like of this testimonial. 1 may add I am now able to do all my own household work; a thing I have been unable to do for years.—Yours very gratefully, Mrs) CARRIE HOCKING Witness—6 E Richardson, 19/9/99 VITADATIO IS A TRULY WONDER FUL MEDIOINE.

Madame Patci's Advice wo Sipgbrs -—" I don't bplieve in* coddling myaelf and making my throat too tender," said Madame Patti t to a young Amerioan who sought her a'lvic. '* I kept my vooal power's at their full by extreme care, but you will notice, if yon have been told of my rules of life, that I've never made myself sensitive to Blight exposure. Of course, a great deal of rubbish bas been written about my dread of Ukiog cold. I'm careful, as every singer should be, to avoid sudden and violent ohanges; but, on the, other harid, I should w%m you not to make yourself too tender, and invite cold by the { inexperience of slight exposure. Harden yourself," the great singer continued; "build up yonr constitution • don't occupy heated rooms at any time; lire out of doors at least two hours every day, and walk and drive* That's my advice. Then, don't be afraid to breathe plenty of good fresh air, even if the weather i« cold. The people who go about with mi fSed throats, overburdened with wraps, men singera who turn up the collars of their coats at the slightest breath of freeh air, and women singers who hide themselves m a mass of carriage rugs and cover their J faces with lacea when carriage driving, are i the or>fs who first begin to cough. On the othf r hand, don't go to extremes and expose yourself m raw, damp air, especially at night fall. Be sensible and preserve a happy medium between wise ciution snd foolish coddling." How to Cure a Sprain Lasb fall 1 sprained my left hip whi!e handling some heavy boxes. The doctor I called on said at first it was a slight strain and would soon be well, but ib grew wwrse, and the doctor then said I had rheumatism. It continued to grow worse and I Oiuid hardiy get around to work. I weub to a drug store, and the druggist recommended roe to try Chamberlain's Pain Balm. I tried it, and one half of a 50 cent bottle cured me entirely. I now recommend it to all my friends—F A Baboook, Erie, Pa.
