Sir,—Having derived much benelit from bathing in your Hot Springs, Waiwera, I think it is a duty that I owe to the public—especially Buffering humanity—that my case should be made known. Before I went to the Springs I suffered for more than ii month the most excruciating pain from rheumatic gout, had to be lifted in and out of bed, in fact was unable to walk without the use of two sticks. It took me an hour to walk from Wakefleld-street to the 'Lady Bowen.' After getting to the Springs! bathed twice a day and drank freely of the mineral waters, at least a pint each day, and after six days I felt quite well, iree from pain, and can walk as well as ever I did. It is now elev«"< days since I left and liave had no return of pain. ±i this should induce any person suffering as I was to try the hot baths, I feel sure they will get cured, and if so, serve the object I have in writing to you.—l am, sir, your obedient servant, Thos. Weaving. Robert Graham, Esq. Auckland, January 5, 1875. Mr Robert Graham, Sir,—Understanding you are the proprietor of the Hot Springs) at Waiwera, I think it is only due to yon to give a short account of my successful experience of the efficacy of the Springs in the cure of Rheumatism. I had been suffering from Rheumatism since the year '(59, contracted through cold and wet work ing on the West Coast, and from that time until I left the Springs I had .suffered periodically from the same. The second bath I took brought back all the rheumatic pains I had ever experienced in different parts of my body. At the end of a fortnight I was free from all pains, with the exception of the ankles (which was always the worst part affected), and with the exception of my feet being very tender from BO much hot bathing I am quite a new man ; I have not the slightest pain of Rheumatism about me, not even in the ankles. To parties visiting the Springs I should advise them not to feel alarmed or disappointed if tl»ey find themselves worse the first day or two; according to the general opinion it shows the action of the waters. Also I would recommend the drinking at least two or three glasses of water both on entering and leaving the bath ; also, sweating in the blankets, for which accommodation is provided in each bath; and to parties affected with acute Rheumatism I think the more they use them the more srjeedy will be the cure. I remain, sir .Yours respectfully, C. 11. WILLOUOnBY. s Auckland, 10th January, 1875. [ Dear Sir,— In the intercuts of thoso who may be similarly afflicted, and in recognition of the benefits I derived at your sanatorium, the Waiwera Hot Springs, a desire to record the efficacy of the bathß and water in the cure of Dyspepsia, from which I had suffered many months. Thanks, however, to the virtues of the mineral waters, together with a free use of baths, I was relieved of the distressing symptoms, and have since enjoyed tho best of health. Yours truly, John Sent. Robert Graham, Esq. Robert Graham, Esq. Dear Sir, —Having suffered from rheumatism for Borne time past, on tho recommendation of my medical adviser, Dr. Turnbull, of Chriptchurch, 1 Visited your Hot Springs. After three weeks' bathing and drinking the mineral water, I am restored to perfect health. In fact, I have not felt so well ior years as I am at present. The trin altogether has been a moßt enjoyable one. I found the hotel comfortable, excellent table, attendance good, civil and obliging, pleasant for the invalid seeking health, or the man of busineßß requiring taxation. I know of no place in New Zealand where a person could pans a few weeks more agreeably than at your Hot Springs Yours faithfully, J. J. FitzGibdon. Postmaster, Christchurch New Plymouth, 27th April, 1875. Sir,—l desire to bear testimony to tho efficacy of the Waiwera Hot Springs, and as my case in a peculiar one, I shall briefly state it. About four years ago I had the spine of my back dislocated, in consequence of which I lost the power of my limbs from the back downwards —lost all feeling in them; also, wasting and loss of flesh on my legs. I wan quite unable to walk, and was in this state for about three year? — could not turn in my bed without assistance. Last October I went to the Hot Springs, Waiwera, and bathed twice each day, and drank at least 1% pints ot the water daily. After six week's bathing I found the symptoms of life return to my legs. I could lift and use my Jprs as well as over; got strong and healthy; all pain and weakness left me. Owing to the dislocation of my back I still use crutches, but 1 have no doubt I shall shortly be able to do'•without them altogether, as I can now walk 100 yards at a time without them. I consider the cure a most miraculous one, and feel sure thoiiHands would visit the Springs if they only knew its valuable properties. I take this opportunity of expressing my grateful thanks to Miss Home for the great kindness I received while at the Springs, also Mr Home for the kindness and attention paid to me by him. I am, Sir, yours truly, S. T. JOLL' Robert Graham, Esq. Auckland, 18th May, 1875. Sir,—l aesire to give publicity to the wonderful cure I had while at your Waiwera Sanatorium. I was suffering from Rheumatic Fever, was six weeks in the Hospital under medical treatment for same. I suffered great pain with swellings and stiffness in my joints. I was unable to take off my own boots, and had to employ a cab to take me to the steamer when I had made np my mind to try your Springs", After one week's bathing, and drinking the water, I got as well as ever I was, and have had no return of the pain, although it is now two weeks' since my re covery, which I look upon almost like a miracle. I am, Sir, Yours respectfully, Geobge Bevehidge. To Robert Graham, Esq. Thames, 19th May, 1875. Robert Graham, Esq., Auckland. Dear Sir.—l feel great pleasure in testifying to^rte benefits I derived by my visit to the Hot Springs at Waiwerawera in the year 1868. For years prior to that time I had been subject to attacks of Rheumatism, which would lay me up for weeks at a time. The use of tho Springs proved, after this lapse of time to have taken tho disease quite out of my system, having had no relapse since that time. For three months before going to the Springs I had been totally unable to move without assistance from an attack of sciatica. My object in writing to you is that you may make this public, for the beneiit of others who may be similarly affected, without knowing where to obtain relief. My experience leads me to believe the Waiwera Springs more efficacious for Rheumatism, Lumbago, or Sciatica, than all the medicine the Doctors can give, and only requires to be made known to become the great sanatorium for the South. Pacific. I am, dear Sir, Yours very truly, Edwd. Honiss. ri RATEFUL—COMFORTING E P P S'S COCOA. Breakfast.
