Dunedin, October 18, 1886, MY SON JOHN, aged eight years, has been suffering for six years from a cough which has nearly killed him. He has had hardly any sleep since March last, and has been a great source of anxiety. In six weeks Dr Speer has nearly cured him. He had previously been under some six or seven doctors, who were unable to cure him. I am very pleased Dr Speer has arrived in Dunedin, and am quite satisfied that be is all he states. I reoommond other poor sufferers to go to him. MRS SHERIDAN, Macandrew street, South Dunedin, Dunedin, October 20,1886. FIVE Years age I underwent an operation, since which I have never been clear of the doctors, and have gradually failed in health until I was quite unable to work. On seeing the advertisement of Dr H. J. SPEER in the paper I thought I would try him; and lam happy to say that under his treatment I am mending rapidly, and can thoroughly recommend him as a straightforward clever man. MRS CROWE, Moray place. Witness to signature: R, J. Stedwkll. Dunedin, October 25, 1886. I WAS SlCK—nearly dead. Doctors could do me no good.

I have been SIX WEEKS under DR SPEER, and now I am a new being; can eat like a horse, and feel like a fighting cock ; look like a man again. And yet this man advertises 1 H.

To the Public. —I, the undersigned, do this day make the following statement, in hopes that others who have gone through a similar affliction may profit thereby For many months I have been sick; so bad tliat life was a burden. The mental depression and physical prostration were something that cannot be described. Doctors and patent medicines I have tried without any relief, but getting worse all the time. As a forlorn hope, I called on Dr Speer, Palmerston Buildings, foot of Queen street. He examined me, and, without asking a question, gave me every symptom I had. Said he would treat mo. From the first teaspoonful of his medicine I felt relief, and have constantly been getting "better ever since. Words cannot express my gratitude. The above statement I make without any solicitation, and am willing to verify the same before a J.P. Respectfully yours, R. Adamson. Charlotte street, Eden terrace, Auckland. 7th July, 1886. I, Richard Stone, of Haining street, have been suffering three years and a-half from paralysis. I have tried any amount of Wellington doctors, and swallowed any amount of medicine, without any effect. Three weeks’ treatment from Dr Speer completely changed me, and I feel I have got hold of the right man at last. R- Stone. Witness—W. J. Sullivan. Wellington, 15th July, 1886. I beg to state that for a long time I have been suffering from physical and nervous debility. Some five months ago, when Dr Speer was in Auckland, I wrote and placed myself under his treatment, and am now gratified to say I am perfectly cured, and a sound, healthy man again. I cannot speak too highly of Dr tipeer, as he has succeeded when other doctors failed, and that without even seeing me until to-day, when I first had the pleasure of speaking to him. H.
