kfc TT IT ADATIO THE GREAT HERBAL REMEDY. ANOTHER GRE^T TRIUMPH OVER " HYDATIDS " A grateful Patient gives unsolicited and valuable toatimony to the efficacy of this pteafc Herbal HemMv. Read carefully aud investigate for yourself. 29 Packingston St., St. Kilda. Mr S A Palmer, Vifcadatio Institute, Bourks st. Sir,—As I consider Webbers' Great Herbal Remedy, " Vitadatio." has been the sold means of saving my life I think the least J can do le to hand you this testimonial, bo that others suffering the same as myself may know that there is a, certain reliable cure tut them fn " Webber's Vitadatio," if it is only given a fair trial. The sample facts of my case are as follows:—For the past 10 ye»rs I have been under thetreattnetttof doctors in Fttzroy and S!-. Kilda, as well as come of the beet in Collins street 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 slone cure me. You can easily imagine that I had little hope of ever being cuntdi But one dayl noticed an advirtised cure by «• Webber's Vifcadatio," and the symptoms of the patient being somewhat; similar to my own, Ithcught I would give it 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 tjken wight bottlea I was wonderfully recovered, bub one day took very ill, and vomited up a iot of slimy matter, which was afterwasd«i examined by the dootor, and pronounced to be Eyr]atids. I con tinned to vomit theee "Hydatids" for some time, but at last it died away. This naturally left me weak, but I continued with the •* Vitadatio," and gradually tny strength returned, uuti! to-day 1 sau honestly state I have never felt better in the whole of my life. I consider " Webber's Vitadafcio " a miracle-worker. I am well-known in Fitzroy, and there ate many others just as much astonished at my cure as lam I shall be pleased to Bpeak to anyone and give them my own experience of the worth of •• Webber's Vitadaiio." You are at perfect liberty to make w hat uto you like of this testimonial. I may add I am now abla to do all my own household work ; a thing I have been uuable to do for years.—Yours very gratefully, Mrs) CARRIE HOCKING Witness-G E Richardson, 19/9/99 VITADATIO IS A TRULY WONDER FUL MBDIOINB.
