TESTIMONIALS. To Professor Gusscott, Sic, — Having for the last four years suffered from bad eyes, being totally blind in one, and from using a solution of nitrate of silver as a lotion, which had penetrated my whole system causing mo the most acute pains, which, added to rheumatism, prevented my sleeping at night, and rendered my life absolutely burdensome to me, I haye consulted and been treated by doctors in different parts of Canterbury, as also in the Christchurch Hospital, but without obtaining the slightest relief. Determined to leave no stone unturned while the smallest chance remained of an abatement of my sufferings, I applied to you immediately I heard of your arrival, and the cure which you have effected would seem to many incredible, but as I am still here a living proof of the success of your treatment, as can also be testified by hundreds in Cnristchurch, who knowing what I was like for so long up to a week ago, look with astonishment at the change which you havo wrought. Wishing you many years of happiness and prosperity in pursuing your uaeful career, I am, dear Sir, yours respectfuUy, Pateick Buens. Sexton's Allenton House, St Asaph street, Christchurch. To Professor Gusscott, Dear Sib,— l have much pleasure in giving you my testimony to the very effectual cure you liave performed on me. For twelve years I have been afflicted wifch liver complaint and palpitation of the heart. I have tried several doctors in Melbourne and Dunedin also, but none seemed to do me any good. But after being under your treatment for six weeks, I am as well as ever I havo over been in my life. I would recommend everyone suffering from from the same complaint to place themselves under your treatment.— l remain, yours respectfully, Alexander Lucas. George street, Dunedin, April 5, 1878. To Professor Gusscott. Sir, — Having been troubled with asthma for tho last seven years, on several occasions I have been propped up in bed, and many times I had to get up and walk to get a breath of air, and had become so bad that I was not able to attend to my business ; in fact, I had become a burden to myself and the people with whom I was stopping. When I came to you you told me all my symptoms, which gave mo confidence to place myself under your treatment, and being a believer of herbs, and seeing the large assortment in your establishment, and also the references from other sufferers the same as myself, in looking back to the timo of my suffering bo long, and spending so much money without receiving any benefit from the treatment until I applied to you. — I remain, yours ever thankful, Donald Smith. Great King street, Dunedin, May 30. To Professor Gusscott, Sic, — I have been troubled with rheumatism ar.d Bciatica in the hip joints for the past fivo years, and racked with pain day and night, and deprived of sleep, and not able to attend to my business, with excruciating pains. I was advised to try your herbal treatment. I am 43 years of age, and I am happy to say that I am free from pain, and havo perfect use of my limbs, and can attend to my business as well as I did ten years ago. Hoping this statement of mine will be beneficial to otherß who have been affected in a similar way, I remain, yours truly, Thomas Febguson. George street, Dunedin, Juno 3, 1878.

I have been tapped twice ; I have been under the doctors iri Oamaru, and also in Dunedin, and vwr received any benefit from their treatment. When my Bister called on you last April you told her if I would come to Sfc. Kilda and stop wifch hey you would treat me for a fortnight free of charge, and after that time if I were no better, you required no payment : bufc I am happy to inform you that I feel as well as I over felt, and free of dropsy, and can eat and sleep well. I trust tbat your days may bo long in Dunedin. You may be assured thafc I will speak of the cure you have effected on me on my return home, as I leave my sister to-morrow. — I remain yours ever grateful, Mrs Isabella Fbaseb. St. Kilda, June 10, 1878. To Professor Gusscott, Sib, — I applied to you on May 18 last. I havo been troubled with nervous debility for several years, bo much so thafc I was unablo fco attend to my work. I could neither eat nor sleep ; my mind was wandering. I saw that there was nothing but tho doom of suicide. 1 had lost my memory ; my sight diminished. I was a perfect skeleton, cared for no company, and could hold no conversation. I always wished to be by myself, I thought everybody was looking afc me and know my complaint. When I came to you, you told nio every sympton that I was labouring under. When I met John Marr, who is now stopping in town, I told him how you had explained to me the different symptoms and inconvenience I was suffering : ho said you had cured him perfectly, which statement of his decided me to placo myself under your treatment, and I thank God and you that I did so, as I am now a new man. They knew well in my boarding-house the state I was in when I applied to you, and none but you, humanly speaking, may I thank, as I had tried many medical men and found no relief, unless to ease my pocket. — I am, yours over gratefully and thankfully, John Andbews. To Prof essoi" Gusscott, Sib, — I can with confidence recommend your treatment for worms, as after my children had taken your worm exterminator I can tell you I was perfectly astonished to find in the courso of two days the number of worms they had passed. You can make any use of this small acknowledgment you wish. — I remain, yours truly, Tnos. H. Davidson. Moray place, Dunedin, Juno 18, 1878. To Professor Guscott. Sib, — I am happy to inform you that you havo fulfilled your promise. I have been suffering from bleeding piles for the last eight years. I have tried eight doctors, but could get only temporary relief. I came down from Mount Ida, and hearing so much talk aboufc you being so clever in curing so many chronic complaints, I thought I would give you a trial, and I am happy to say, with the most satisfactory result, and that you have made a perfect cure of me. I know several in Mount Ida who have been troubled with the same complaint for years, and many of thorn know that I have had to give up work having been so bad. I give you this statement as I am well known at Mount Ida, and believe me I shall bo happy to let any one know whero they can get a perfect cure, and at a small fee, for I havo spent scores of pounds without receiving any benefit. — I am, yours ever thankful, David Jones. Mount Ida, June 14, 1878. P.S. — I have told several here of the cure you have made of me, so you may expect many orders for medicine. — D.J. To Professor Gusscott, Sic, — I havo been troubled with a bad leg for two years. I attended the Hospital as an outdoor patient for several months. They healed ifc up, bufc ifc broke oufc worse fchan ever. Hearing of the wonderful cures you had made, I was advised to give you a trial. I can say thank God, that you have made a perfect cure of mo. You told me if you did not cure me yoa would refund me my money, but I am better pleased than if I had three times the money that I have paid to you to be as lam to-day. Hoping this may meet the eye of sufferers the same as I have been, that they may know where to get a perfect cure. — I remain yours thankfully, Geokqb Moib. Porfc Chalmers, June 18, 1878. PROFESSOR GUSCOTT would impress upon those who may do him the honour to consult him that the utmost secrecy can be relied upon ; moreover, from long experience, and a careful study of the human system, he can decide almost at a glance the diagnosis of the case, thereby relieving the patient of a great deal of nervousness and Hesitation. ~
