Tho healing virtues of these famous springs border on the miraculous, scores of persons afflicted with Paralysis, Rheumatism, Eruptions, Contracted and Stiff Joints, Gout, Lumbago, Skin Diseases, Sore Heads, and varieties of painful diseases have been Testored to perfect health through bathing in these marvellous springs, and drinking the mineral water, who gratefully bear testimony to the fact. The water has been pronounced the most- remarkable healing •water in the world, and effected most wonderful cures. TO THE TOURIST OR PLEASURE SEEKER I.N LUSTY HEALTH the Waiwera Hot Springs will be a source of amaze ment and delight.

Sir, —Having derived much benefit from bathing in your Hot Springs, Waiwera, I think it is a duty that I owe to the public—especially suffering humanity—that my case should be made known. Before I went to the Springs I suffered for more than a month the most excruciating pain from rheu matic gout, had to be lifted in and out of bed, in fact was unable to walk without the use of two sticks. It took me an hour to walk from Wakefield-street to the ' Lady Bowen.' After getting to the Springs I bathed twice a day and drank freely of the mineral waters, at least a pint each day, and after six days I felt quite well, free from pain, and can walk as well as ever I did. It is now elevr *v days since I left and have had no return of pein. Xt this should induce any person suffering as I was to try the hot baths, I feel sure they will get cured, and if so, serve the object I have in writing to you.—l am, sir, your obedient servant, Thos. Weaving. Robert Graham, Esq. Auckland, January 5,1875. Mr Robert Graham, Sir,—Understanding you are the proprietor of the Hot Springs at Waiwera, I think it is only due to you to give a short account of my successful experience of the efficacy of the Springs in the cure of Rheuma tism. I had been suffering from Rheumatism since the year '69, contracted through cold and wet work ing on the West Coast, and from that time until I left the Springs I had suffered periodically from the • same. The setond bath I took brought back ail the rheumatic pains I had ever experienced in different parts of my body. At the end of a fortnight I was free from all pains, with tho exception of the ankles (which was always the worst part affected), and with the exception of my feet being very tender from so much hot bathing I am quite a new man ; I have not the slightest pain of Rheumatism about me, not even in the ankles. To parties visiting tlie Springs I should advise them not to feel alarmed or disap pointed if they find themselves worse the first clay or two; according to the general opinion it shows the action of the waters. Also I would recommend the drinking at least two or three glasses of water both on entering and leaving the bath ; also, sweating in the blankets, for which accommodation is provided in each bath; and to parties affected with acute Rheumatism I think the more they use them the more speedy will be the euro. I remain, sir Yours respectfully, C. H. WILLOUGHBY. Auckland, 10th January, 1575. Dear Sir,— In the interests of those who may be similarly afflicted, and in recognition of the benefits I derived at your sanatorium, the Waiwera Hot Springs, a desire to record the efficacy of the baths and water in the cure of Dyspepsia, from which I had suffered many months. Thanks, however, to the virtues of the mineral waters, together with a free use of baths, I was relieved of the distressing symptoms, and have since enjoyed the best of health. Yours truly, John Bent. Robert Graham, Esq. Robert Graham, Esq. Dear Sir, —Having suffered from rheumatism for some time past, on the recommendation of my medical adviser, Dr. Turnbull, of Christchurch, I visited your Hot Springs. After three weeks' bath ing and drinking the mineral water, I am restored to perfect health. In fact, I have not felt so well for years as I am at present. The trip altogether has been a most enioyable one. I found the hotel com . fortable, excellent table, attendance good, civil and obliging, pleasant for the invalid seeking health, or the man of business requiring laxation. I know of no place in New Zealand where a person could pass a few weeks more agreeably than at your Hot Springs. Yours faithfully, J. J. FitzGibbon, Postmaster, Christchurch. New Plymouth, 27th April, 1875. Sir,—l desire to bear testimony to the efficacy of the Waiwera Hot Springs, and as my case is a peculiar one, I shall briefly state it. About four years ago I had the spine of my back dislocated, in consequence of which I lost the power of my limbs from the back downwards—lost all feeling in them; also, wasting and loss of flesh on my legs. I was quite unable to walk, and was in this state for about three years could not turn in my bed without assistance. Last October I went to the Hot Springs, Waiwera, and bathed twice each day, and drank at least \y_ pints of the water daily. After six week's bathing I found the symptoms of life return to my legs. I could lift and use my legs as well as ever; got strong ana healthy; all pain and weakness left me. Owing to the dislocation of my back I still use crutches, but 1 have no doubt I shall shortly be able to do without them altogether, as I can now walk 100 yards at a time without them. 1 consider the cure a most miraculous one, and feel sure thousands would visit the Springs if they only knew its valuable properties. I take this opportunity of expressing my grateful thanks to Miss Home for the great kindness I received -while at the Springs, also Mr Home for the kindness and attention paid to me by him. I am, Sir, yours truly, S. T. Joll Robert Graham, Esq. Auckland, 18th May, 1875. Sir,—l desire to give publicity to the wonderful cure I had while at your Waiwera Sanatorium. I was suffering from Rheumatic Fever, was six weeks in the Hospital under medical treatment for same. I suffered great pain with swellings and stiffness in my joints. I was unable to take off my own boots, and had to employ a cab to take me to the steamer when I had made np my mind to try your Springs After one week's bathing, and drinking the water, I got as well as ever I was, and have had no return oi the pain, although it is now two weeks' since my re covery, which I look upon almost like a miracle. I am, Sir, Yours respectfully, George Bevekidge. To Robert Graham, Esq. Thames, 19th May, 1875. Robert Graham, Esq., ' Auckland. Dear Sir.—l feel great pleasure in testifying to the benefits I derived by my visit to the Hot Springs at Waiwerawera in the year 1868. For years prior to that time I had been subject to attacks of Rheuma tism, which would lay me up for weeks at a time. The use of the Springs proved, after this lapse of time to have taken the disease quite out of my "system, having had no relapse since that time. For three months before going to the Springs I had been totally unable to move without assistance from an attack of sciatica. My object in writing to yon is that you may make this public, for the benefit of others who may be similarly affected, without know ing where to obtain relief. My experience leads me to believe the Waiwera Springs more efficaciwus for Rheumatism, Lumbago, or Sciatica, than all the medicine the Doctors can give, and only requires to he made known to become the great sanatorium for the South Pacific. ' I am, dear Sir, Yours very truly, Ebwd. Honiss. US AUGKh&^Jj VJsiSjfiiJUiß BLIND MANUFACTORY. M. HORTON BUSBY."
