R&AD WHAT YITADATIO ss doi^sg CONSUMPTION, PLEURISY AND ABSCESSES. A WONDERFUL CURE. DOCTORS DIAGNOSED But YITADATIO CURED. 381 Swan Street, Richmond, Victoria-, October 21, 1900. Mr S. A. PALMER. j Sole Distributor of Webber’s Vitada tio, Sydney. Dear ' Sir, —As I consider Webber’s Great lUerbal Remedy has been the means of saving my life, I think the least I can do is to hand you my testimonial. I do this absolutely of my own free will, with the hope that it will encourage others who suffer in a like man. Her as I did myself to peresevere with Vitadatio, and through persevering may be cured of their infirmities. I had been suffering for five years. In the first place I w T as a youth, not quite nineteen years of age. I worked in a cellar in Melbourne, and through the rapid changes of (cemp era tures I caught cold, after cold, which at last brought on Pleurisy ; I was under one of the best doctors in Richmond for about three months, but I made no progress to recovery. He advised me to go for a trip to build me up ; so in October, 1895, 1 left Melbourne for New Zealand, I was first under a doctor at Wyncuiam, N.Z., who failed to do me any good. He wished to hold a consultation, so I got another from Invercargill, N.Z.., They came to the conclusion that I was suffering Lorn consumption; 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 outdoor patient at the Hospital there from March, 1896, till March, 18SS ; but they failed to do me any good. I tried private doctors, hot 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 ad-; vised me to take Vitadatio, and seeing the good it had done him ; I started to take it, but after taking it for sore© time, I got disheartened 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 unde,, another doctor, but he said he could do nothing for me, but as I am a member of the Forester’s Lodge, I had to. get a certificate- report every fortnight, in such report ho wrote I woe bur ■~~ni i-uythisis. tie t.old rn> .sistez .-acre w. 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 S3'dney I could not go about for my feet were both swollen, so I had to stop there some Melbourne winter following, T”was confinedJp suy bed, I could not turn myself zn .-Japa without aid, I was very weak and said I would not live a jOTtnighnp&aP’r that I again saw Mr \vho%t*Ppersisted that Vita would do good if I would just stick to it. Hemso toidL me I would die if I would n so to please my family I again tbok 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 worn- 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 the} 7 were to their height-I could hardly breathe till they broke. I would start vomiting up blood mixed with phlegm, after that I would feel easy till some more was forming, which would came away in a like manner. But I have tr thank God and Vitadatio I have got b'_„ yond that stage now. I never have these sicknesses now. and am able to go anywhere, and everywhere, and eat well and sleep well. I have now not a pain nor an ache anywhere. lam a member of the Forester’s 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, 1 year and 7 months age, I barely weighed 8 stone; now I am 9st lOlbs. Thanks to Vitadatio and your persistence. You. are at perfact liberty to make what use you like of this testimonial. I will be pleased to answer any aqestions 3' our patients ruay wish concerning m3 7 case. —I remain, dear Sir yours truly, J. ATKINSON.
