BwrtneM Notioeß. BE WISE IN TIME. IN this age of charlatanism when men who bave been shoved promiscuously through some old-fashioned Medical College, are sent forth into the world with a number of initial letters to their names in order fche more readily to prey upon a too credulous public, ifc is gratifying fco find a man Uke PBOFESSOB GUSSCOTT Having fche courage to come forward and expose the numerous shams that drain the very life-blood out of the victims of disease, without imparting to them any real permanent benefit. PBOFESSOB GUSSCOTT After years of research, in which Nature's repository was ransack <3,at length discovered fche Medical Properties Herbs which were used by our Forefatheiß when Drugs and Mineral Poisons were unknown— and whioh now, are daUy trampled under foot as useleßß weeds, by those ignorant of their virtue. Attention is invited to some of the Marvellous Cures which have been effected by the Profeßßor since his arrival in Canterbury. TESTIMONIALS. To Pbofbssob Gusoott. Sib, — I have been suffering much from asthma cough for the last eight years. I could not get to sleep when I went to bed, and I have often coughed till my nose bled. I have tried other medical men, but none did much good until I came to you, and you stopped my cough with three bottles of your medicine. John Cboss. Burnham, July 31, 1880. To Pbofbssob Guscott, South Town Belt. Slß,— l am happy to inform you thafc my leg, which has been bad for the last eight years, is now perfectly cured. I was first treated for a white swelling, bufc when I came to you, you told me ifc was scurvy, and also explained how those things occur, which I found to be so. It waa Btriking it against a chair, and then soratching it, which caused an inflammation, and then poulticing it and ueing remedies which were quite contrary to the complaint. I was told twelve months ago that my leg would have to be amputated ; but knowing ladies thafc you have treated, who were equally as bad as I have been, through their advice, I came to you. There are many who object to their names in the newspapers, who told me bo, but I think it my duty to make it known to those who are troubled, that they may know where to apply to for relief. I hare gofc fat and strong since I have been under your treatment. I am happy to say thafc I have gofc the full use of my leg, am free from pain and soreness, and able to attend to my household duties. I am yours, ever grateful, M. Labkin, Oolombo street north. WONDEBFUL CUBE. Pbofbssob Gusoott, South Town Bpit. Dbab Sib, —I have been troubled with nervous debUity for the past eight years, brought on, as you have explained in the " Canterbury Times " by the indiscretion of early youth. I have spent scores of pounds firsfc with one and then with another, but never received any permanent benefit. Some said that I had heart disease, others fchat I was consumptive, bufc when I wrote to you from the Bakaia you explained my symptoms so exactly that I waa induced to come to town afc once, though you told me you could treat me equaUy as weU by stopping and attending to my work as in losing time by coming to town. I was unfit for work so decided fco come fco town for a speU, as I could neither eat nor sleep. My mind wandered ; I had a desire to be away from company, and yet when alone my own oompany waa hateful to me. I was troubled with the mosfc hideous dreams, and was in that low, nervous state which sometimes made me feel as if death would be a happy release. My bead ached, my heart palpitated violently, I would atari; almost afc my own shadow. My mind, in fact, was not my own. I saw you on my arrival in town, when you were in Manchester street, and you then told me that ifc would take three months afc the very least to effect a perfect cure, and that I must comply exactly with your instructions; if not, you would nofc guarantee a cure. I am happy now to say thafc I did as you told me to the very regulating my hours, and habits and that now, after the lapse of fifteen weeks, my memory is restored, my sight has become strong again, my mind has ceased to wander, I can enjoy company, and, in short, Richard's himself again. I should nofc go to the trouble of describing so minutely my sufferings, but thafc I know of so many young men who are Uving secluded lives whose sufferings are precisely what my own were before I came to you, and who, although in health, would be really amiable and estimable persons, are looked upon as gloomy, morose, unsociable men simply because of fchat phase of the disease which I have named, a hatred for company. If this should be read by any of those peraons, suffering as I did, and they are induced to apply to you for relief, I wiU guarantee that they wUI aay after a few weeks that they wUI say after a few weeks thafc they never laid out a more profitable sum of money than when fchey came to Professor Guscott. — BeUeve me, youra faithfully, Bichabd Dobson. P.S. — I return fco my work to-morrow, and I know my friends there will be agreeably astonished afc my present appearance. Victoria streefc, Christchurch, Jan. 20, 1880. To Pbofessob Guscott. Sib, — For some years past I have been completely prostrated, owing to what I have since found was my liver being oufc of order. I lost aU energy. Could only Ue in bed upon my right side, and even then was so restless that sleep was only taken, as it were, in snatches, my food never digested, and I always suffered from pains in my breast, accompanied by palpitation of the heart, and pains between the shoulders. My feet too were alwayß cold. Since you took me in hand only a few weeks ago, I gradually improved, and am now as free from the disagreeable feeUnga which I have feebly expressed, as ever I was in my life. I shall certainly have p ta^ure in recommending all to know who eufltr from liver complaint to come to you. I I am, Dear Sir, yours, &c, F. S. M'CIINTOOK. Oamaru, July 27, 1880.
