MEDICAL, TO INVALIDS AND OTHERS. NO MORE SUFFERING AND DISEASE. HERBS— NATURE'S ANTIDOTE. PROFESSOR GUSSCOTT Having reason to believe that his skill has been called in question, ia induced more pro. minently to bring under the notice of the public the results of his treatment during the past twelve months. Unlike members of the so- called Faculty, he has no " diploma to kill " under cover of which he could shelter himself in the event of any mal-practice, or unskilful treatment, bat has to depend solely upon the knowledge he gained from a prac tical experience extending over twenty years on the Continent, America, and Australia, the result of which is that he is enabled to diagnose at once the symptoms of the case submitted, and thus avoid prolonging the patient's ailment by "experimentalising, which is so frequently done afc the cost of health and pocket. The advantages of the "Botanic" or "Vegetable System "over the Allopathic are well established, from the wider and safer scope for treatment it affords, and it is an admitted axiom that for every disease there is a remedy, which can be found m Nature s laboratory. Absolute specifics exist for every ailment the human system is heir to, if the requisite knowledge of the virtue of the herbs applied ate known— a knowledge which is only to be acquired from study and long experience. Theoretical knowledge acquired from the works of Dr. Coffin and others is not only useless, but dangerous. The result is that the practice of Botany is brought into disrepute, and the system is condemned for what is really a want of knowledge on the part of the Herbalist. Professor Gusscott does not rely npon this "book knowledge," and prescribes according to a formula set down ; but is enabled to decide the treatment from the symptoms. Hia medicines moreover, are prepared solely from freshly-gathered or imported herbs, -which necessarily thus psssesa their full strength and virtue It common practice with many who do not understand their qualities to dispense "extracts" or "tinctures" which must from age lose their strength and efficacy, and consqueatly fail as a remedial agent. PROFESSOR GUSSCOTT would particularise a few complaints which he has successfully treated where the medical men had failed, and which had been pronounced chronic or incurable, viz:— Rheumatism, dropsy, asthma, and bronchitis, for the cure of which he possesses testimonials of the most fiatttering character. These acknowledgementa have been given voluntarily, with a request in many instances that they should be made public in the interests of those similarly afflicted. In nearly every case the patients had been the " rounds of the doctors," as in candour he acknowledges is the case with many of those who finally consult him. No wonder, then, when cures are effected, the sufferers are grateful Although he does not profess to trade on the • ' no cure no pay system, he is willing to give a guarantee that if he does not effect a cure he will return the money charged. In proof of what he asserts, he would refer the public to the published testimonials of persons resident in Dunedin, and invites the perusal of many other testimonials in his possession Those Buffering from nervous debility and other complaints will do well to consult him. Procrastinate not in the matter. The enemy is an insidious one, and its inroads should be arrested before it is too late. The strictest sccresy may be relied upon. Processor Gtjsscott would impress upon those who may do him the honourto consult him that the utmost secrecy can be relied upon j moreover, from long experience, and a careful study of the human system, he can decide almost at a glance the diagnosis of a oase, thereby relieving the patient of a great deal of nervousness and hesitation. Professor Gusscott invites the confidence of either sex suffering from functional derangements, spernaatorhcea, exhausting dreams, &o. jgsr THE KING OF PAIN.— A specific that no family should be without.
