DR. SPEER. DOCTOR yPTTF/R-ia a graduate of Harvard University, Class 74, and has devoted 20 yeai'B to the study of SPECIAL DISEASES, some of these in association with the leading specialists of the Old and New Worlds, which enables him to treat all private troubles with excellent results. Catarrh, stomach and liver troubles attended to in all their various forms. All skin diseases, from whatever cause, absolutely cured within a stated time. All applying to him will receive his honest opinion of their complaints. No experimenting ! He will guarantee a positive cure in every case he under takes, or forfeit £2OO. His reason for doing so is this:—Where there is no organic disease and nothing but inorganic trouble, or in other words a conglomeration of symptoms producing a certain result, there is no reason why it cannot be removed with the proper remedies, therefore he guarantees. Furthermore in all other businesses the master must guarantee his work —why not in medicine ? The • old-fashioned doctor will promise nothing, therefore he must be guessing as to the trouble, and guessing as to the remedy. Ladies and gentleman, in science there Is no guess-work. No man or woman can die without -a cause. That cause should be known to a doctor, and the remedy, too. Remember, medical ethics will not cure, neither will dignity founded on guessing help you. Dr. Speer wishes it distinctly understood that he does not claim to perform impossibilities, or to have miraculous power. He claims only to be a qualified and successful physician, thoroughly informed in the above DISEASES of men and women.. People at a distance can, by sending fbr question-form be treated at home. The course does not in any way interfere with business. Secrecy in al cases. . , Call or address H. J. Speer, M.D,, National Mutual Life Association Building, Custom House Quay, Wellington.

Dear Sib,—lt is with pleasure that I give yon this testimonial, to testify that after your three months’ treatment for nervous debility, depression of spirit and general derangement of the stomach, of which I have been suffering for the last three years or more, I now can say with honesty that I have not only received great benefit, but feel another man since taking your medicine. I may also say that since I started your treatment I can eat and sleep well, a thing which was very rare ; and it will give me. great pleasure to recommend you to any of my friends. Yours truly, Thos. Drake, Ohau, Manawatu Line. G. PILKINGTON SOLICITOR, Intimates that he has COMMENCED PRACTICE At No. 3, MERCANTILE CHAMBERS, QUEEN STREET.'
