J.

Testimonials can!ho seen on application t< the- Proprietor, at his residece, top of Wake field-street. „• The Btrongeat recommennn on for this mcdi cine is its own intrinsic worth as shewn by th< marveliouu cures effected on well-known ant much respected membera of our community The boHt proof of this is to be found in the larg< number of testimonials received by the makct thankfully acknowledging the restoration o; health experienced by using this panacea. At tho request of thoso already cured, the proprietor now brings the "Blood Restorer' more prominently before tho Public, in the sure and certain hopo that this utilising of tho gifts of a merciful Providence will prove a great blessing to suffering humanity, by curing long seated diseases and averting threatening sick ness. The want of a reliable remedy for Rheuma tism, &c, has long been felt as ono of the greatest calamities of tho age. Whilo other means and medicine havo been proving them selves vain and delusive this remedy has beon silently and steadily unloosing tho cruel fingers of disease, and freeing captive man from that deadly embrace. The people are now requested to give the Blood Restorora fair and impartial trial. And *I>3 Praprietor would havo it dis tinctly undc: _tood that the cures of Rheumatism, Sec... are duo entirely to tho medicine's wonder ful effect upon tho blood, by its clcansi-g, puri fying, and invigorating system. Impurity and inactivity of the Wood is the cause of most sickness and pains. Altera course of this medicine, blood vessels—which havo become, as it were, choked up with unhealthy matter—become exhiiirant with pure scarlet life-blood*, flowing naturally along, and impart hvr in its courao vigour and strength te tho en ire system. N'.B,—Country Settlors will find in Kitchens Blood Restorer an almost complete substitute for the Doctor. It arrests Colds, allays Fevers, aud builds up the system. Children take it with wonderful results. No household should bo without it. ANOTHER MIRACULOUS CURE. TrtK following is striking evidence of the won derful eii'ects of tho Blood Restorer, after all othor means have failed to cure :— Rokeby-streot, Auckland, Ist December, 1877. Mr. Hitch-ens,— Dear Sir,—l have to thank you very much for the benefit I havo received through using your valuable Blood Restorer, and as a warning and guidance to others, would make known tho particulars of my illness and cure. Some months ago I was taken ill witb pains in the back, sup posed to bo lumbago. So far from being bene titied by the attendance of medical men, I grew rapidly worse, and tho pain became agonising. One day my husband had in his hand a portion of an old Auckland Evening Star, containing your professional announcement of the medicine aud its cures. Tbe paper was of a backdate, v.nd the advertised agent's address, a Chemist in Wellesley-street. My husband applied to him for llitchens' Blood Restorer, but the Chemist used such illnaturcd remarkß to dissuade us from testing the virtue of tho medicine, that we felt there was some spite at work, and deter mined more than ever to give it a trial. The pleasing result of tho trial was, that after tak ing it a weok, I felt wonderful relief; before many bottles were taken, .1 waa not only liberated from a sick room, but felt in perfect health; appetite was restored, strength re gained, and I have to thank God that you were at hand to provide the means of my rapid cure, and enable mo once more to attend to my household duties. Yours every gratefully, Mrs. Walter Knox. To Mr. llitchens, Upper Wakefleld-stroet
