I'h3 est proof of this is to be found in taa large n no er of testimonials received by the maker hankfully acknowledging the restoration of ealth experienced b using this panacea. At the reques o rho already cured, the proprietor now b j p he "Blood Restorer more prominen ore the Public, in the sure certain tha Itnis utilising of the gifts of mere f Providence will prove a great blessing to sufT humanity, by curing long seated diseas nd averting threatening sick- Ihe wan of a reliable remedy for Rheuma t sm, &c. has long been felt as one of the greatest calamities of the ago. While other means and medicine have been proving them selves vain and delusive this remedy has been silently and steadily unloosing the cruel lingers of disease, and freeing captive man from that deadly embrace. The people are 11 nw requested to give the Blood Restorer a fair andimpartia trial. And f.h3 Proprietor would have it dis tincOyundcrJtood that the cures of Rheumatism, &c. are due entirely to the medicine's wonder ful effect upon the blood, by its cleansing, puri fying, and invigorating system. Impurity and inactivity of the Mood is the cause of most sickness and pains. After a course of this medicine, blood vessels—which have become, as it were, choked up with unhealthy matter—become exhilirant with pure scarlet life-blood, flowing naturally along, and impart ing in its coarse vigour and strength to tha en -1 N.B,— Country Settlers will find in Kitchens Blood Restorer an almost complete substitute for the Doctor. It arrests Colds, allays Fevers, and builds up the system. Children take it with wonderful results. No household should be MIRACULOUS CURE. The following is striking evidence of the won derful effects of the Blood Restorer, after all other means have failed to cure :— Rokeby-street, Auckland, Ist December, 1877. Mr.HiTCHESS, — , „ Dear Sir,—l have to thank you very much for the benefit I have received through using your valuable Blood Restorer, and as a warning and guidance to others, would make known the particulars of my illness and cure. Some months ago I was taken ill with pains in the back, sup posed to be lumbago. So far from being bene fitted by the attendance of medical men, I grew rapidly worse, and the pain became agonising. One day my husband had in his hand a portion o£ an old Auckland EVENING Star, containing your professional announcement of the medicine and its cures. The panerwasof a backdate, and the advertised agent's address, a Chemist in Wellesley-street. My husband applied to him for Hitchens' Blood Restorer, but the Chemist used such illnatured remarks to dissuade us from testing the virtue of the medicine, that wo felt there was some spite at work, and deter mined more than ever to give it a trial. Iho pleasing result of the trial was, that after taking it a week, I felt wonderful relief ; before many bottles were fciken, I was 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 euro, and enable me once more to attend to my household duties. Yours every grn refully, Mrs. Walter Knox. To Mr. Hitchens, Upper Wakeflold-street.

Vital energy, it is well known, deDends i:pqn the normal functions of the nervo-efecfric fluid governing the whole economy ; any deficiency thereof in the system manifests itself, according to the locality, by a variety of troublesome ail men s, such as i. Indigestion Complaints Neuralgia Sciatica Deafness Writer's Cramp Loss of Voico Asthma Bronchitis Paralysis Kpili psy Rheumatism Gout * Constipation Local Debility General Debility Feniwle Complaints Mental acd Physical Functional Disorders Weakness .Sea, Sec, &c. This is no conjecture, but an established scientific fac>, and it must be admitted that PDLVEKMA CHER'S GALVANIC CHAIN BAND-^, by supDlying this electrical deficiency, constitutes nature's most congenial curative in the ailments referied to, embodying a host of remedies in one. Thirty y< ars'successful exnerienee has proved the marvellous remedial powers of these appli ances, even in cases defying ordinary treat ment. The following is spontaneous and remark able :— " Auckland, November 26,1877. "I)kak Siu,—l have been a great sufferer from Lumbago—in fact, for the last 6& years I have not been free from it for one minute; and to make i lihttfs worse, about two yeiu« and nine months since NcuriUgia of the Bladder set in which has been dreadfully painful and trouble some. I saw a nhort ttaie since your advertise ments in reference to Pulvermacher's Galvanic Bands, and the cures affected by them, and being averse to taking madicine for these com plaints, I determined to try one. The result has been something wonderful, the Neuralgia in the Bladder left me in a week (mostly in the morn ing, I could scarcely crawl out of bed for it), and the Lumbago is very nearly gone (it has been of such long standing that I never expected to get any belter), and instead of my life been made miserable by these pains, I feel almost like another man. You are perfectly at liberty to publish this if you think fit, and perhaps it may be the means of some other unfortunate sufferer gaining relief. " 1 am, yours truly, "James Slator. "G.
