Theimvorth and merit have secured for them in eA-eryjpart of Ncav Zealand the confidence of the public. They have cured long-standing cases of sickness, and TESTIMONIALS similar to those given beloAV are being received from all parts of the Colony by the Proprietor :— "Kensington, Dunedin, Ist March, 1876.—Sir, HaA'ing occasion to use your Aperient Mixture, and having derived much benefit therefrom, I haA'e much pleasure in testifying to its merits, and in recommending it to others.—(Signed), A. Jamieson." "Pier Hotel, Dunedin, 20th May, 1876.—Sir- Having been much benefitted by the use of your Indian Medicine, I have great pleasure in adding my testimony as to its efficacy, and can reconi mend others to try it. Some of my friends, Avho have also been using these medicines, speak very favourably of them, and have receiA'ed much benefit from their use.—(Signed), Ophelia Bennett." "Port Chalmers, NeAV Zealand, 3rd July, 1876. Sir,—l think it my dutj- to state that your Ghol ' lah's Rheumatism Mixture has proA'ed 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 preA'ious to taking your in valuable medicine I beg to state that I had been suffering the most excruciating agony irom severe Rheumatism for over two years. I could not rest at night. My appetite Avas gone, my general health shattered, and the pains through out my limbs and loins Avere constant and almost insupportable. I Avas 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 Avceks, 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), Fred. Williams." " Dunedin, 10th July, 1876.—Sir,—I have plea sure in stating, for the benefit of others, that I haA'e derived the most unexpected good results from the use 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 linibs and loins, through which my rest was much disturbed at night, my appetite very imperfect, and my general health altogether impaired. I am happy to state that I am noAV free from the pains I had experienced for so many years. I can sleep Avell 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 for about tAvo months.—l am, Sir, yours gratefully.— (Signed), S. Pickett." "Dunedin, 31st August, 1876.—Sir,—HaAdng 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 Avhich 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 talcing your medicine. I think it right to state, for the 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 inA^aluable medicine. I can strongly recommend it those suffering from rheumatism or gout.—(Signed), John Griffen, J.P."
