They have cured long-standing cases of sickness, and TESTIMONIALS similar to those given below arc being received from all parts ol the Colony by the Proprietor :— "Kensington, Dunedin, Ist March, 187G.— Sir, Having occasion to use your Aperient Mixture, and haying-derived much benefit therefrom, I have much pleasure in testifying to its merits, and in recommending it to others.—(Signed), '"'pier llotoi, Dunedin, 2GtliMay, 1870.—Sir,— Having been much benctitted by the use of your Indian Medicine, I have great pleasure in adding my testimony as to its efficacy, and can recom mend others to try it. Some of my friends, who have also been using these medicines, speak very favourably of them, and have received much benefit from their use.—(Signed), Ophelia "Port Chalmers, New Zealand, 3rd July, 187 G. Sir,—l think it my duty to state that your Ghol lah's Rheumatism Mixture has proved in my case to be all that you have represented it to be ; and for the sake of those who may be suffering the misery and torture of severe Rheumatism, such as I endured previous to taking your in valuable medicine 1 beg to state that I had been suffering the most excruciating agony from severe ] Ihcumatism for over two years. I could not rest at night. My appetite was gone, my general health shattered, and the pains through out my limbs and loins wore constant and almost insupportable. I was induced to try your Rheu matism Mixture, and found myself getting better after taking three bottles of it. I continued taking the medicine for about six weeks, and became perfectly restored to health, being per fectly cured of all pain or symptoms of Rheuma tism. My appetite is excellent, and I sleep well at night,—Signed), Fked. Williams." "Dunedin, 10th July, IS7G.- Sir,— I have plea sure in stating, for the benefit of others, that I have derived the most unexpected good results from the use oE Ghollah's Rheumatism Mixture. I had been suffering from very severe rheumatic attacks for about 15 years, accompanied by most agonising pains in my limbs and loins, through which my rust was much disturbed at night, my appetite; very imperfect, and my general health altogether impaired. I am happy to state that I am now free from the pains [ had experienced for so many years. I can sleep well at night, my appetite and general health are much improved, and I can attend to my business and house duties. This happy change has been brought about by the use of your Rheumatism Mixture tor about two months.—l am, Sir, yours gratefully.— (Signed), S. PICKETT." _.■-,„„-». „ . "Dunedin, 31st August, 18r6.—Sir,— Having taken your Ghollah's Rheumatic Mixture for some considerable time, and having been com pletely cured by its use, of the very severe rheu matic gout from which I had suffered most severely for the last ten years, I can bear testi mony to its most extraordinary curatic powers. I am now free from all pain, and well in my health, and have the free use of my hands and feet, which I had not previous to taking your medicine. I think it right to state, for the bene fit of others su/foring the tortures that I endured for the period above stated, that I attribute my restoration to health and freedom from pain entirely to the use of your invaluable medicine. I can strongly recommend it those suffering from rheumatism or gout.—(Signed), John Gbifi-'ex, J.P."

i /COMMON SENSE AND COMFORT. i Gas Stoves. COOKING by GAS is Easier, Cheaper, and far more Economical than by Wood or Coal, and suitable for the Cottage, Mansion, or Hotel. The superior flavour, the retention of the animal juices in the Meat, and the prevention of waste, are plainly shown on the first trial. The logs of weight, by GAS COOKING is reduced to about one-fourth ol: that of the com mon modes ol: Roasting or Baking, for whereas a Joint of Meat of eleven pounds lose^'never le is than three pounds at an Open Fire, or four pounds in an Oven, the loss by the Gas Roaster is enly one pound. If you have common sense, buy one. If you want comfort, buy one. AS STOVES, for Roiling, Steaming, Broil ng, Stowing, or Frying, from 3s.
