Jamikson'." "Pier ilot.:I, Dunedin. 2Sth May, 1876.—Sir,— Having been much benefited 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 bcnclit from their use.—(Signed), Ophelia " Port Chalmers, New Zealand, 3rd July, 1876. Sir.—l think it my duty to state that your Ghol lah'a Rheumatism Mixture has proved in my oas;; to be all that you have represented it to be ; and for the sake of those who may bo suffering the misery and torture of severe Rheumatism, such as I endured previous to taking your in valuable medicine 1 beg to state that 1 had been suffering tho most excruciating agony from severe 1 Uioumatism 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 Joins were constant and almost insupportable. I was induced to try your Rheu matism Mixture, and found myself getting better after taking three bottles of it. 1 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 id excellent, and ] sleep well at night.—Signed), Fred. Williasis."

I am happy to state that I am now free from the pains I had experienced for so many years. 1 can sleep well at night, my appetite and general health arc much improved, and 1 can all end to my business and house duties. ■This happy change has been brought about by tho use or your Rheumatism Mixture for about two months.—l am, Sir, yours gratefully.— Signed), S.

"Dunedin, 31st August, 1876.—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 Buffered most severely for the last ten years, I can bear testi mony to its most extraordinary curatic powers. [ am now free from all pain, and well in my health, and have the Tree use of my hands and foot, which I had not previous to taking your medicine.
