I want to tell those that are suffering from Headache not to despair, but to get relief from Dr Speer’s treatment. I bless the day he came to Dunedin Both health and money were gone, as I had tried all the doctors I could think of until I called on him. Out of his skill ami attention I am well and strong, and as this is all I can do I think it right to make known his ability in treating suffering creatures like myseif. Helen Cakey. Mount street, Port Chalmers, January 25,1887. > From an accident I had an abscess form in the muscles of my back. I was 10 months in the Auckland Hospital, where the doctors cut and cut again, but failed to give me relief. Previous to this I was four months under a local doctor without effect; at last they could do no more—they said lot it take its course. At this time a probe could bo run four inches into the open wound. I had 19 months of this misery. In about two months Dr Spkku has cured me sound and well. I can run, jump, and do as I please; am ready for any kind of work; and the wound is healed. If anyone doubts this they can call and see mo, as I am well known in Port Chalmers. I think I am doing nothing but justice in publishing this as a voluntary act of gratitude to the Doctor, Joseph Jones. St. Helier’s Cottage, Frederick street, Dunedin, January 12,1887. I have been ill about six years. I came to New Zealand for the benefit of my health about four years ago, but got worse. I was over four months in the Dunedin Hospital, the card over my bed stating my disease to be consumption; and I was discharged, as they could do me no good, I picked up one of Dr Speer's handbills in the hospital grounds, and called to see him. Ho laughed at my sad appearance, and said: “Be happy, old man ; you are worrying over the past; you have been frightened. Do as I tell you, and you will soon feel like a new man.” In ten weeks I find he was right. I feel better than I have for years, and am ready to go to work. Anyone doubting this statement can call and see me at above address, and they will find me smiling and in good health. John Brown. Newtown, Wellington. February 17,1887. Facts are truths. For thirty years I have suffered from Chronic Disease which was gradually killing me. I have tried dozens of Patent Medicines and any number of doctors without effect. At last I got so bad that I could hardly work. I have been under Dr c peer seven months, and feel like a now man. Let me recommend anyone suffering to call and see him; if it is possible to obtain relief he will give it. Charles Richards. Dunedin, October 20,1886.
