CROSS-EXAMINATION COULD NOT WEAKEN SUCH TESTIMONY.
The following statement is one of great interest to our citizens. Mr John Blade, Minei, Omeo, Gippsland, testifies as follows : —“ I had a very bad attack of Indigestion, brought on by drinking excessively hard brackish water in hot weather. I got so bad I could not retain liquid or solid nourishment, and was seized with fits of nausea and retching nearly every hour, although nothing but foam resulted. I was so giddy at times that I could hardly walk, and could not sleep at night. Suffering, and in this terrible condition for a fortnight, I purchased remedies from the local chemist, but got little or no relief. I then tried Warner’s " Safe” Cure. I was so bad I had all I could do to keep the first dose down, and managed by walking to and fro for half an hour. After the second dose I was able to retain a cup of weak tea. That night I had several hours’ good sleep. I continued, and was completely cured.” This kind iof evidence cannot be weakened by cross-examination.
