VITADATIO READ . WHAT ts ooif^a CONSUMPTION, PLEURISY, and ABSCESSES. A WONDERFUL CURL Doctor • vi auauSJiD BUT YiIADATiO tURtD I 381, Swan sti'eer, Msrhnionti, Victoria, October 21, 1900. ' ME S. A. PALMER, Sole Distributor of Webber's Vitadatio, Sydney. Dear Sir, —As I consider Webber’s Great Herbal Remedy has been the means of saving my life, I think the least I can do is hand you my Testimonial; Ido this absolutely of my own free will, with the hope that it will encourage others who suffer in a like manner- as I did myself to per-' severe with Vitadatio, and through persevering may be cured of their infirmities. I had been suffering for five years. In the first place I was a youth, not quite nineteen years of age. I worked in a cellar in Melbourne, and through the rapid changes of temperatures I caught cold after cold, which at last brought on Pleurisy: ' I was under one of the best doctors in '" for about three months, but I ‘ihafte-i no 1 progress to recovery. He advised me to go for a trip to build me up; so in Octek her, 1895, I left Melbourne fob New Zealand, I was first under a doctor at Wyndham, N.Z., who failed to do me any good. He wished to hold a consultation, so I got another from Invercargill, N.Z.’ They 1 came to the conclusion that I was suffering from Cc nsumption; and that I could not live more than a month or two; they also advised me to go further north. So on their advice I went to Wellington. I was treated as an out-door patient at the Hospital there form March,. 1836, till March, 1838; but they failed to do me any good. I tried private doctors, but with the same disheartening result; they said it was consumption and took it for granted (it could not be cured). After that I saw Mr Palmer in Wellington, and he advised me to take Vitadatio, and seeing the good it had done him; I started to take it, but after taking it for some time. I got dishoartenecl and thought it would not cure me. I expected a few bottles to cure me, but it did not, so I gave it up. So after that I went under another doctor, but lie said he could do nothing for me. but as I am a member of the Foresters’ Lodge, I had to get a certificate report every fortnight, in such report he wrote I was suffering from Phthisis. He told my sister there was no possible hope for me, so I decided to come back to Melbourne. If I were to die I would die at home. I left Wellington in February, 1899, for Sydney, when in Sydney I could not go about for my feet were both swollen, so I had to stop there some time. I arrived in Melbourne in March, 1899, and the winter following, I was confined To mv bed, I could not turn myself in my bed without aid, I was very weak and the doctor said I would not live a fortnight. After that I again saw Mr Palmer who still persisted that Vitadatio would do me good if I would just stick to it. He also told me I would die if I would not take it, so to please my family I again took it. After taking it for some time I began to swell very much in the stomach. I got the doctor to call, he wanted to tap me, but" my mother would not allow him.’ I Verily believe that to have been the Vitadatio working on the complaint. After that I made rapid progress. I used to feel the abscesses forming, and when they were to their height I could hardly breathe till they broke. I would start up blood mixed with phlegm, after that I would feel easy till some more was forming, which would come away in a like manner. But I have to thank God and Vitadatio I have got beyond that stage now. I never have these sicknesses now, and am able to go anywhere, <, .d everywhere, and eat - well and" sleep w ell. I have now not a pain nor an ache anywhere. I am a member of the Foresters’ Lodge here, and the doctor gave me a certificate last month to say that I may follow any light employment, believing it will not injure my health by so doing. When I arrived in Melbourne, one year and seven months ago, I barely weighed 8 stone; now lam 9st lOlbs. Thanks to Vitadatio and your persistance. You are at perfect liberty to make what use you like pf this testimonial.. I will be pleased to answer any questions your patients may wish concerning my case.—l remain, dear Sir, vours truly, J. ATKINSON. We, the undersigned, have been sick visitors of the Lodge Brother J. Atkinson is member of, and hereby certify to his recovery. HENRY FORDHAM, 173, Dover-street, Richmond.
