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 "Yon Chalmers, New Zealand, 3rd July, 1876. Sir,—l think it my duty to state that your Ghol lah's Rheumatism Mixture has proved m my case to be all that you have represented it to be; and for the sake of those who may be surtering the misery and torture of severe Rheumatism, such as I endured previous to taking your in valuable medicine I beg to state that I had been suffering the most excruciating agony from severe Rheumatism 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 were constant and annost insupportable. I was induced to try your Rheu matism Mixture, and found myself getting better after taking three bottles of it. I continued takin"- 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." " Duncdin, 10th July, 1576.- Sir,—l have plea sure in stating, for the benefit of others, that I have derived the most unexpected good results from the U3e of 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 :nv rest was much disturbed at night, my appetite very imperfect, and my general health altogether impaired. I am happy to state that 1 am now free from the pains I had experienced for so many years, I can sleep well at night, my appetite arid general health are much improved, and I can attend to my business and house duties. This happy change has been brought about by tlie use of your Rheumatism Mixture for about two months.—l am, Sir, yours gratefully.— (Signed), S. Pickett." ' r 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 curatio 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 tne bene fit of others suffering 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 Chose suffering from rheumatisik or gout.—(Signed), John Griffen, J.P."
