j' _ " ■ iStJ-ii.S&iS '•'■:-■■ \ CANCER CURED. BRIEF PARTICULARS OF A REMARKABLE CASE IN | THE WELLINGTON DIS TRICT. Fullest Information Sent on Application. Mr W. H.MEXTED, a well-known Con tractor, resident in Nelson street, Petone, has been ill for OVER TWO YEARS, with CANCER IN-THE BOWELS. First six months had constant craving for meat, bad to have meat at meals at least twice a day. He says :—"Treated by two local doctors, at end of six months the doctors decided to put me Under cbloroform for examinntion and operation. Placed on milk diet for three days previous, and wasted to a shadow. After examination it was decided to send me to the Wellington Hospital for operation. A bard lump or ridge bad been growing for some time at tbe upper part of the abdomen, and blood and pieces of flesh resembling the lung of a sheep was passing from me daily. I was in the Wellington Hospital two months. Was operated on, and under examination the doctors told Mrs Mexted that the trouble was cancer in the bowels, and was practically inourable. Was taken from the hospital in that condition, being taken to my home on the ambulance 3tretcher, and in such a weak state they did not think I would reach home alive. Was 3arried to my bed, and for weeks lay be bween life and death. The local doctors were in regular attendance, and concurred with those of the hospital as to the nature >f my complaint, and stated they could do aothing .for roe. As time went on the loctors ceased calling, telling my wife that ny oase was hopeless and they could do no nore. I was worn away to a skeleton, and iaily passing the matter above referred to. My wife then tried various remedies and latent medicines, but there wa3 not the ilightest improvement, until, on the advice >f friends, I started taking PLANTEKOA, md it was not for some time that even this leemed to make any impression, and I was . tlmost giving it up in despair. However, vhile using the fifth bottle, the discharge jradually ceased, and I began to feel itronger, the hard swelling had almost lisappeared, and I was able to get up and tbout for a little. To the joy of my family md friends the improvement continued, mtil at the present time I FEEL SPLEN ~)ID. Have been away during Easter |to )anevirke and Palmerston North for a trip, aid have NOW RESUMED WORK. I lonsider that PLANTEKOA has COM PLETELY CURED ME. I shall be )leased to answer enquiries by letter or >therwiße.—Yours, gratefully, W. H. MEXTED. , I can certify that I visited Mr Mexted in he Wellington Hospital, and I never ex acted to see him come out alive, and his tresent condition astonishes me. Signed, W. Shilling, Pilot, Wellington Harbour 3oard. This is to certify that I conveyed *Ir Mexted to the hospital in the ambulance, md two months later brought him home igain, and assisted to carry j him from the mbulance to his bed. Jas.

FIT GTJABANTCED, Ross' Antidote and Ointment The Great Herbal Remedy for Purifying the Blood. fl HE following unsolicited Testimonial S by a gentleman well known in Ash burton, speaks for itself : — Masterton, August 28,1901. Ross Antidote Company, Dear Sirs,—l feel it my duty to give you this enclosed testimonial in favour of Ross' Antidote for purifying the blood. I have i been a great sufferer for many years from ! ulcerated stomach, indigestion, etc. My life was a perfect misery, and I was almost a wreck. I grew tired of trying different medical men and remedies, of which I had tried almost every known one but yours and one day some eighteen months ago a gentleman came into the shop where I was employed. He remarked " Jack, you look very ill," and you may depend I was. He added, Will you take some medicine if I procure it; I replied, I will take anything. He brought me a bottle of your Antidote, and I took it accordingly as directed, and to my delight I began to get well, and after taking three large bottles I was a new man, thanks to your great discovery. I always keep it by me, and find a few doses occasionally keep me in perfect health, and I wish you the success with it that such a medicine merits. You can make what use you like of this,—l remain, yours, etc., J. H. Paulino, Masterton. May be obtained from Messbs Flbtcheb Bbos. and Sheabman Beos., Ashburton. Smoke New Venus
