Sir,—l havo oeen a sufferer from rheumatism for the last twenty years in the old country. Through advice I rpceived from medical men il emigrated to New Zealand as being a warmer climate, and morn adapted for the core of my complaint. For the last twelve months I have suffered most frightful agonies from the pains in all my joints. What made my case worse I caught a severe cold, on the cold subsi&iDg it left an asthma, which brought on dropsy;' and suffering under these maladies I tried all medical aid, and was five months in the District Hospital, Auckland, and neither my wife nor myself ever th on ,ht I -would leave it alive, as I gradually got. worse, having pains and large a wellings in my knee joints, and arms, shoulders and hands distorted. My wife hearing of your and seeing your testimonials in the newspapers from parties which live around us, I made enquiries from several who had been under your treatment, who stated themselves thftt yon cured them when their case was supposed to be hopeless. I determined to see you at all hazards, and was helped to your place by my wife on sticks. Only five months under your care, and the whole of my complaints have disappeared, and am now able to follow my daily avocation. Thanks to a merciful Providence that I was brought under the influence of your medicine, and wishing that you may be long spired to be able to administer your valuable Restorer to other sufferings as you have done to nie.-Yours faithfully, SAM UEL FIELD.

Having a very bad attack of Sciatica and Lumbago, I was for weeks unable toattend to by business; I was under the treatment of a medical man, and tried all kinds of remedies, but received no relief; in fact I was gradually getting worse. A friend recommended me to try your Blood mixture, but you being a stranger to me, and not know ing the quality of your mixture, I was sceptical about it. My friend called again, and again recommended me to you, and from what he said I was induced to callonyour agents, Messrs Hamilton Bros., and get a bottle of your Restorer, and I am alad to say that, after taking six bottles, I was able to attend to my business, and am now quite well. Should any friends of mine at any time be suffering with Rheumatism, Goat, Sciatica, etc, I will most certs/inly re commend them to take your Blood Restorer.— I am, Sir, yours truly, N.

Altho' this testimony is unsolicited, you are at liberty to make what ura of it you pleane. but 1 feel it a duty to acknow* ledge the efficacy of your medicine.—l am, Sir jours truly, W, fIUNTKK.
