READ WHAT IS DOING CONSUMPTION. PLEURISY AN* r ‘ ABSCESSES. A WONDERFUL CUREDOCTORS DIAGNOSED But YITADATIO CURED. 3SI Swan Street, Richmond, A ictoria, October 21, 1900. Mr S. A. PALMER. Sole Distributor of Webber’s Vitadatio, Sydney. . , Dear Sir- —As I -consider WVober’s Great Herbal 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 ip a like man. ner as I did - myself to peresevere with Yitadatio, 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 Richmond for about Three months, but I made no progress, to re.-., covery. He advised me to go for a trip to build me up; so in October, 1895, I left Melbourne for New Zealand, I was first under a doctor at Wynunam, 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 thd conclusion that I was suffering"' 1 froth 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, 1898; but they failed to do me any good. I tried private doctors, but with the same disJieartening 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 Yitadatio, and seeing the good it had done him'; I started to take it, but after taking it for some time, I got disheartened and thought it would not cure me. I expected a few bottles to cure me, but it diu not, so I gave it up. So I went unde r another doctor, J*trt M said he could do nothing for lj|l am a member of the Foregpr’s Lodgg| I ted t<?|get a erer\^a>rtfflpbit, ih such reportwrote. I wl s|ring |rom He told m 3w fe ® l ® r » as no possibly hope for I to come bags to Melbourne; if to die I wjpld die at home. I left Wellingtoiijia February, 1899, for Sydney, When Em. Sydney I could not go about for mjfpeet were both swollen, so I had to stop there some time. I arrived in Melbourne in March, 1899, and the winter folio-wing, I -was confined to my bed, I could not turn myself in bed without aid, I was very -weak and the doctor said 1 would not live a fortnight. After that I again saw Mr Palmer wh© still persisted that Yitadatio 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 woiu-i not allow him. I verily believe that to have been the Yitadatio working on the complaint. After that I made rapid progress. 1 used to feel the abscesses forming, and when they v r ere 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 t r thank God and Yitadatio 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. I am 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,-! year and 7 . months ago, I barely weighed 8 stone ; now I am 9st lOlbs. Thanks to Vitadatio and your persistence. You. are at perfact libeity to make what use you like of /this testimonial. I will be pleased to answer any uqestions your patients may wish concerning my case.—-I remain, dear oil yours 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 Fordliam, 173 Dover Street, Richmond. . Henry Janies Bird, 47 Market Street, South Melbourne. Alfred Allen, 76 Henr3 r Street, Windsor. W. N. Wright, 171 Mary Street, Richmond.
