Bnslness Jfotioea. BE WISE IN TIME. IN this age of charlatanism when mon who have been shoved promiscuously through some old-fashioned Modical College, are sent orth into the world with a number of initial letters to their names in order the more readily to prey upon a too credulous public, it is gratifying to find a man like PROFESSOR GUSSCOTT Having the courage to come forward and expose the numerous Bhams that drain the very life-blood out of tho victims of disease, without imparting to them any real permanent benefit. PROFESSOR GUBSCOTT After years of research, in which Nature's repository was ransack 4 ,at length discovered the Medical Properties Herbs which were used by our Forofatheiß when Drugs and Mineral Poisons were unknown— and which now, are daily trampled under foot as useless weeds, by those ignorant of their virtue Attention is invited to some of the Marvellous Cures which have been effected by the Professor since his arrival in Canterbury. TESTIMONIALS. To Pbofessob Gxtscott. Sib, — I have been suffering much from asthma cough for the last eight years. I could aot get to Bleep when I went to bed, and I have often coughed till my nose bled. I have tried other medioal men, but none did much, good until I came to you, and you stop pod my cough with three bottles of your medicine. John Cboss. Burnham, July 31, 1880. To Pbofessob Gusoott, South Town Belt. Sib, — I am happy to inform you that my leg, which has been bad for the last eight years, is now perfectly cured. I was first treated for a white swelling, but when I came to you, you told me it was scurvy, and also explained how those things occur, which I found to be so. It was striking it againßt a chair, and then scratching it, which caused an inflammation, and then poulticing it and using remedies which were quite contrary to tho complaint. I was told twelve months ago that my leg would have to be amputated 5 but knowing ladies that 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 mo so, 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 have got fat and strong since I have been under your treatment. I am happy to say that I have got 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, Colombo street north. WONDERFUL CURE. Pbofesbob Gtjscott, Bouth Town Belt. Dbab Sib, - 1 have boon troubled with nervous debility for the past eight years, brought on, as you have explained in the " Canterbury Times " by tho indiscretion of early youth. I have spent scores of pounds first with one and then with another, but never received any permanent benefit. Some Baid that I had heart disease, others that I waß consumptive, but when I wrote to you from the Rakaia you explained my symptoms so exactly that I was induced to come to town at once, though you told me you could treat mo equally as well by stopping and attending to my work as in losing time by coming to town. I was unfit for work so decided to come to town for a spell, 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 company was hateful to me. I was troubled with the moft hideous dreams, and was in that low, r rvom state which sometimes made me feel (< if death would be a happy release. My In ad ached, my heart palpitated violently, I would start almost at my own shadow. My mind, in fact, was not my own. I saw you on my arrival in town, when you wore in Manchester street, and you then told me that it would take three months at the very least to effeofc a perfect cure, and that I must comply exactly with your instructions; if not, you would not guarantee a cure. I am happy now to say that I did as you told me to the very regulating my hours, and habits and that w w, after the lapse of fifteen weeks, my memr fis restored, my sight has become strong* .in, my mind has ceased to wander, I can? joy company, and, in short, Richard's hims>. .again. I should not go to the trouble of describing so minutely my sufferings, but that I know of fo many young men who are living secluded lives whose sufferings are precisely what my own were before I came to you, and who, aitbougk in health, would bo really amiable aud estimable persons, are looked upp>n as gloomy, morose, unsociable men simply because of that phase of the disease which I have named, a hatred for company. If this should be read by any of those persons, suffering as I did, and they are induced to apply to you for relief, I will guarantee that they will say after a few weeks that they will say after a few weeks that they never laid out a more profitable sum of money than when they came to Professor Guecott — Believe me, yours faithfully, RIOHABD DOBSOK. P.S. — I return to my work to-morrow, and I know my friends there will be agreeably astonished at my present appearance. Victoria street, Christchurch, Jan. 20, 1880. To Pbofbssob Guboott. Sib, — For some years past I have been completely prostrated, owing to what I have since found was my liver being out of order. I lost all energy. Could only lie in bed npon my right Bide, 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 tho shoulders. My feet too were always cold. Since you took me in hand only a few weeks ago, I gradually improved, and am now as free from the disagreeable feelings which I have feebly expressed, as ever I was in my life. I. shall certainly have pleasure in recommending all to know who suffer from liver complaint to come to you, I am, Dear Sir, yours, &c, F. S. M'OiINTOOK.
