CONSUMPTION. PLEURISY A>W ABSCESSES. A WONDERFUL CURB DOCTORS DIAGNOSED But VITADATIO CURED. 381 Swan Street, Richmond, Victoria, October 21, 1900. Mr S. A. PALMER. Sole Distributor of Webber's Vita- ‘ datio, 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 to hand you my testimonial. I do this absolutely of my own free will, Avith the hope that it will encourage others avlio sidler in a like man. ner as I did myself to peres©A r ere with Vitadatio, and through persevering may be cured of their infirmities. I had been suffering for fire years. In the first place I was a youth, not quite nineteen years of age. I Avorked in a cellar in. Melbourne, and'through the rapid changes of (temperatures I caught cold after cold, which at last brought on Pleurisy; I Ava.s 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, I left Melbourne for New Zealand, I first under a doctor at Wynunam, N.Z. ti Avho failed to do me any good. Ho wished to hold a consultation, so I got another from Invercargill, N.Z., They came .to the conclusion that I was suffering from consumption; and that I could not live more than a month or two. ; they also advised me to go further north. So on their adA*ice I Avent to Wellington. I was treated as Tin 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 disheartening result; they said it ay as 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 Mm; 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 diS ndt; st> I gave it up. So after that X 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 he Avrote I Avas suffering from Phythisis. He told my sister there was no possible hope for me, so I decided to come back to Melbourne; if I AA-ere 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 Avere both swollen, so I had to .stop there some time. I arrived in Melbourne in March, 1899, and the Avinter following, I was confined to my bed, I could) not turn myself in bed without aid, I was very weak and the doctor said I would not live a fortnight. After that I again saAV Mr Palmer who still persisted that Vitadatio Avould do me good if I would just stick to it. He also told me I would die if I Avould 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 wotuu not allow him. ; I verily believe that to have been the,. Vitadatio working on the complaint. . After that I made rapid progress. ± used to feel the abscesses forming, and when, they were to their height I could hardly breathe till they broke. I would start vomiting up blood! mixed with pHegm, after that I would feel easy till some more wasi forming, which would came away in a like manner. But I have tr thank God and Vitadatio I have got bo_ yond that stag© now. I never have these sicknesses now. and am able to g® 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 gaA r e 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 montns ago, I barely weighed 8 stone; now lam 9st lOTbs. Thanks to Vitadatio and your persistence. You are at perfact liberty to make what use 3 T ou like of this testimonial. I will be pleased to answer any uiqesitions your patients may wish concerning my case. —-I remain, dear teir.* yours truly, j ATKmSON .
