PREPARED by the PROPRIETOR for speedy relief,, and radical cure of all diseases, of the LIVER, GOUT, SCIATICA, RHEUMaI TISM, NEURALGIA, TTCDOLOREUX, INDIGESTION, AND FLATULENCE;; DIARRHOEA AND Dl rSENTERY, from vegetable remedies, whose healing vir tues were revealed to him by the WISE and learned men of India. The Proprietor carefuUy watched and noted the symptoms produced by these herbs, and eventually perfected the East-Indian Remedies, which he has administered with such un varying success that thousands of persons, in all grades of society, have been radicaUy cured of the above painful diseases, and have ex-. pressed their grateful thanks in ardent lan- ' guage for the cure effected by these medicines. Many hundreds of persons greviously af flicted by Rheumatism and Swollen Joints, overcome by diseases, worn out ■with many years of suffering, racked with pain, unable to sleep by night, or "work during the day—to ; whom life was a burden, and from whom even hope had departed, have been thoroughly cured by these remedies, and are now Uving witnesses of their healing virtues. The Remedies differ from all other medi cines in this most important particular, they don't weaken the patiend, undermine the eon. stitufion, or introduce into the system those ■ mineral poisons so pernicious to the blood.— On the contrary, they relieve at once, finaUy eradicate pain, subdue the torture of Rheumatism, Sciatica, and Neuralgia, and build up naturaUy the organs to func tional vigour. Aielbourne, October 7, ,1868. Mr Dear Sir, —In reply to your request, j I gratefuUy forward you a further, certificate' of the value of your medicine, in cases which .j have fallen to my own knowledge. . ■. I' have been suffering from Rheumatism constantly for five years ;—the result of many. wet jackets in Hobson's Bay, before I put. myseif under your treatment. In the history of that time there .are all sorts;' of horrible and some comical reminiscences. ■ Paibful of medicine ; baths of sulphur; baths v of brine ; baths medicated; and baths galvanic.<_j Out of the one the patient .came, smelling j like a lucifer match: out of another, stewed to;/ an uncommon limpness, or quivering like a galvanised frog. , ;, •You may be sure that I spent a good deal of coin in making the trial of _ the above._so-. called remedies; none of them, however, gave me permanent relief; but yours, in a few days after I had taken it, destroyed the racking pain aud gave a general tone to "the health. Many of my friends, especially the medical ones, thought bad results would follow ; but - more than seven years have now gone by and I . have had no relapse. I have since sent scores of people to you of, aU classes, and have never heard of your faU-' ing to reUeve them. ' m ~ Accept my congratulations that you have successfully established the value of the medi cines, despite all obstacles.—Yours very faith-' fully, JOHN J. SHILLINGLAW, Government Shipping Master. From C. P. nACKETT, Esq., Police Magis trate, Melbourne. A widely-known bad case. Cured in about a fortnight. > Police Office, Melbourne, January 25, 1867. , Dear Sir, —Four years have now elapsed since, at the instance of my friend Mr. Johh , Shillinglaw, (whom you had so miraculously cured of long-standing Rheumatism) I was, induced to place myself in your hands, as I was- at that time, as for two years previously, in bad health. I had at various times, many * of the leading medical men in Melbourne, and had also tried the effects of change of air in New Zealand and Van Dieman's Land, but without deriving any advantage ; yet within a fortnight of taking the first glass of your. medicine I was thoroughly cured, and sine.i> that time I have been free from any leturn of ~ my ailments. .'
