.business Notices IMPORTANT DISOOYEBYII GREAT DIBCOVERY ! X ROFBSSOR GrUSSOOTT, Herbalist, Chiropodist, and Curer of Diseases in General, begs to inform the residents of Dunedin, that he possesses the secret of a Great Discoveby ■which has enabled him to obtain Signal Victories over the greatest enemies of man. Philosophers are agreed that Nature is pregnant -with secrets which, if known, would Cure Life of all its Ills. Disease is a prolific parent of ills— a " monster" which has more than matched the learning and skill of centuries. Doctors have claimed the exclusive right to deal with diseases, and they hare so conspicuously failed as to become proverbial. Napoleon Buonaparte summed up the results of their skill as inimical to Mankind, and as a rule he carefully avoided both Doctors and their Drugs. The imperious Corsican, however, could only speak from the past and from what he observed. He had no idea that in the fullness of time there would arise one Pbofbssob Gitsscott, whose skill bo omnipotent iv curing disease, would bo the wonder of his age. The Professor, after years of research, in which Nature's repository was ransacked, at length discovered the Kino of Pain, and the secret of destroying those monsters which make " wretched *' so many of his race, irmed with the darts of Science, dipped in Herbal Juices, the Professor, like the chivalrous knighta of feudal times, enters the arena where the monsters of disease love to revel — and now behold him ! See the serenity with which confidence invests him ! There, feasting on its victims — whoso sufferings are hellish — in Dyspepsia and its loathsome brood, whose name iB legion. There is Fever, breathing itß fiery blast through the veins of the helpless babe. There Consumption, like the fabled Vulture of the Ancients, iB eating out the vital organs of its victim, while, with deceitful breath, it promises him life. There is Cholera, fastened on the strong and robust, cramping them in convulsive agonies. While mingled in inextricable confusion, are Disease Fiends i of every shape, making the scene hideous with their infernal work. Now the Professor advances, and now his enemies recoil, as one by one they receive a thrust until the last dies — the oppressive stillness of the scene, proclaiming the omnipotence of Pbopessob Gtjsscott. The fame of the Professor iB abroad throughout the land. THE PEOFESSOB HAT BB SEEN AT MANCHESTER STBEET, And he will recommend his TONIC! As the greatest destroyer, not o» MAN AND WOMAN, Ttat the World has ever Been. Ladibs and Gbntlembn— Don't misunderstand the Professor, his Medicine kills Disease, while the Pills and Grease, the Mineral Poison, the Epsom Salts, and Chalk Water, fatten Disease. * # * Don't Fobgbt — PROFESSOR GUSSCOTTS RENOWNED TONIC! Made from the best American Herbs, Discovered by Adam and Evb in the Garden of Eden, by which they were cured when seriously ill from eating apples, and handed down through all the maio branches of the family until it reached Porfessor GrSBOOTT, who is a child of the good old pair. Don't mistake the Address — MANCHESTER STBEET Opposite Laurie's Timber Yard).
TESTIMONIALS. PnOFKSSOB GUSSCOTT. Sin, — I bavo been troubled with nervous debility from my youth. I knew not what was the cause until I had seen your advertisements. I could noitber eat nor sleep. For eight years I did not enjoy a good night s rest. My mind wa3 always wandering, I cared for no oompany, always wished to be alone, always troubled with a violent pain in the head, and a continued palpitation of the heart, my sight diminished, I could scarcely read, and then only for a short time, my memory became bo impaired I could not recollect what I had been reading five minutes after I had done. When I wrote to you from Waverley you told me that you could effect a perfect cure and explained all the symptoms that I was suffering from and the cauße of it. It gave me confidence to come to Christchurch and place myself under your treatment. I havo tried many medical men, but they never fully explained the nature of my complaint. I know there are hundreds of young men suffering the samo as I have been and don't know where to apply to. I know many that have written to L. L. Smith, in Melbourne, but received no benefit, but when I came to your place and found the great number that you have been treating with the same complaint, both in town and country, I was satisfied that I had struck the right man, I am happy to Bay that lam well and hearty and free from all nervousness and palpitation. I can read now for hours, hold conversation, eat and sleep well. I give you this teßtimonial hoping that it will be beneficial to hundreds of others whose lives I know are miserable to them, as mino has been. — Believe me to bo jours ever cratefully, John Nixon. St Asaph street, Christchurch, Sept. 10, 1879. PHOFESBOB GUSSCOTT. Sib, — Having suffered from dropsy for upwards of four years, and tried every available means for obtaining relief, I was induced by a lady who lives in the Gasworks' road, and who you were then treating, to apply to you, as all other means had failed. As you were not a doctor I hail very little faith in you, but you treated mo successfully and lam thankful to be able to bear testimony to the fact that within a month from the date of your undertaking my cbbb I was completely restored to health. — I am, dear Sir, yours faithfully, (Signed) Jane Smith. Sydenham, between Colombo and Montreal streets. Peofessob Gttsscott. Sib, — You asked mo to say a good word for you to any of my friends who might have the misfertuno to suffer as I did before calling upon you, and I have great pleasure in writing a letter which you are at liberty to publish or use in any way you may think proper. Before I saw you a very long time I had suffered from violent pains between mj shoulders, and a feeling as of cold water being poured down my back. I commenced to describe my symptomß to you on my fir* t visit, when you interrupted me by concluding tho miserable catalogue of sufferings, so surely that I at once determined to try if your herbal treatment would do more for me than pills and drugs had done. I suppose I had what is commonly called liver complaint. After taking tho first bottle of your medicine the pains in my head and region of the heart ceased and I am now quite well. I have recommended all I know who suffer from the same cause to apply to you, and trust that this testimonial may be the means of directing others to try the herbal treatment, which I am convinced is the only effectual means of getting rid of a most distressing ailment. — Believe me yours sincerely, (Signed) Wilmav Bbown, Peterborough street, Christchurch. To Pbofbssob Guscott. Sib,— For many years I was a hopoless invalid, and for twelve months unablo to attend to business. My breathing was hard, and at times I was propped up in bed. The medical man who attended me said that I was doomed to be a sufferer from asthma for the remainder of my days ; but my daughter took upon herself to call upon you and ex. plain the nature of my complaint, which you undertook to euro. With that apathy with which an invalid submits to almost anything I suffered my daughter to have her way, and was placed under your care. What you did for me was simply marvellous. After a very short time I was very much better, and now am able to attend to business, can eat, drink, and sleep well, and enjoy as good health as any man at my age (54) can hope to do. I
