Testimonials can be seen on app:icat.ion to the Proprietor, at his residence, top of Wake fleld-strpct. . ... The strongest recommendation tor trii3 medicine is its own intrinsic worth, as shewn by the marvellous cures effected on well-known ana much-respected members of our community. The best proof of this is to bo found in the large number of testimonials received by the maker, thankfully acknowledging the complete restora tion of health experienced by using this panacea. , . ~ At the request of those already cured, the proprietor now brings the "Blood Restorer more prominently before the Public, in the sure and certain hope that this utilising ot the gilts of a merciful Providence will prove a great blessing to Buffering humanity, by curing long seated ' disease, and averting threatening sick ness. The want of a reliable remedy for Rheumatism &c, has long been felt as one of the greatest calamities of the age. While other means and medicine have been proving themselves vain and delusive, this remedy has been silently anu stendily unloosing the cruel lingers of disease, an* freeing captive man from that deadly em brace. The people are now requested to give the Blood Restorer a fair and impartial trial. And the Proprietor would have it distinctly understood that the cures of Rheumatism. &c, are due entirely to this medicine's wonuerlul elfect upon the blood, by its cleansing, punly ing. and invigorating power. . Impurity and inactivity of the blood is the cause of most sickness and pain. After a course of this medicine, blood vessels—which have become, as it were, choked up with unhealthy matter—become exhiliarant with pure scarlet life-blood, flowing naturally along, and impart ing in its course vigour and strength to the entire sjstem. , . TT .. . N B -Country Settlers will hnd m Hitehcns Blood Restorer an almost complete substitute for the Doctor. It arrests Colds, aMays Fevers, and builds up the system. Children take it with wonderful results. No household should be without it. ■ i , ... , THE GREATEST WONDER OF MODERN TIMES. Long experience hus proved these famous remedies to be most elfectual in curing either the dangerous maladies or the slighter com plaints which are more particularly incidental to the life of a miner, or those living in the bush. Occasional doaes of these Pills will guard the system against those evils which so often beset the human ruce, vi/..:—Coughs, colds, and dis orders of the liver and stomach—the frequent forerunners of fey r, dysentery, diarrhoea, and cholera. Is the most oH'octual remedy for old sores wounds, ulcers, rheumatism, and all skin diseases : in fact, when used according to the printed directions, it never faila to cure alike deep and superficial ailments. These Medicines may be obtained from all resp&otable Druggists and Storekeepers through out the civilised world, with directions for use in almost every language. They are prepared only by the Proprietor, THOMAS UOLLOWAY, 533, Oxford-fitreet, London. *.* Beware of Counterfeits that may emin&te mm tho United Statos. q H E 11 A OROTII ER S (Late ok McArthur, Siikka & Co.)
