PROFESSOR GUSCOTT MAY NOW BE CONSULTED AT HIS RESIDENCE, SOUTH TOWN BELT, CHRISTCHURCH, Second Door East from Colombo Street TESTIMONIALS. A WONDERFUL CURE.| Professor .Guscott, South Town Belt. Dear Sir, — I have been troubled with nervous debility for the past eight years, brought on, as you have explained in the Canterbury Tunes by the indiscretion of early youth. I have spent scores of pounds first with one and then with another, but never received any permanent benefits. Some said that I had heart disease, others that I was 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 me equally as well by stopping and attending to my work as in losiag 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 wanierei; I hai a desire to to away from company, and yet when alone my own company was hateful to me. I was troubled with the most hideous dreams, and was in that low, nervous state which made me sometimes feel as if death would be a happy release. My head ached, ray heart palpitated violently, I would start almo3t at my own sha low. 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 it would take three months at the very least to effect a perfect cure, and that I must comply exactly with your instructions ; if not, you would not guarantee a cure. lam happy now to say that I did as you toll m« 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 not go to the trouble of describing so minutely my sufferings, but that I know of so many young men who are living 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 that phase of the disease which I have named, a hatred for company. If this should bs 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 never laid out a more profitable sum of money than when they came to Professor Guscott. — Believe me, yours faithf ally, Richard Dobson. P.S.— I ieturn to my work to-morrow, and I know my f nenda there will be agreeably astonished at my present appearance. Victoria street, Christchurch, Jan. 20, 1880. Professor Gusscott. Sir, — Having suffered from dropsy for upwards of four years, and trie i every available means for obtaining relief, I was induced by a lady who lives in the G isworks' ro.i'l, and who you were then treating, to apply to yon, as all other means had failed. As you were not a doctor I had very little faith in you, but you treated me successfully, aud I am thankful to be able to b\ar testimony to the fact that witbin a month from date of your undertaking my case I was completely restore Ito hoal h. — 1 am, dear sir, yours faithfully, (Signed) JANE SMITH. Sydeuh^m. between Colombo and Montreal streets. To Professor Guscoit. Sir, — For many years I was a h'>p 'less invalid, and for twelve months unable to attend to business. My breathing was bard, and at times I w.is propped up in bed. The injdical ln-in who attended me siid that I was d xnuc-l to be a sufferer from asthma for the remainder of my days : but my daughter took upou herself to call upon you and explain the nature of my complaint, which you undertook to cure. With that apathy with which an inva'M submits to almost anything I suffered my diughter to have her way, and was placed under your care. What you did for rae was simply marvelloin. After a very short time I was very much, better, aud now am able to attend to business, caa cat, drink, .and sleep well, aud enjoy as good health as any man at ray ajjc (■">!) can hope to do. I make this known as much to fulfil a duty as to benefit you. There a;e hundreds of persons in Christchurch who have known me only as an invalid, and who look at me now with astonishment, so complete is the cure which you have wrought by the most simple and least disagreeable method conceivable. — Yours gratefully, • (Signed) John H. Hall, Montreal street, Christchurch. Tuam street, Chrislclmrcb, April 28, 1879. To Profusior Guscott. Siu, — I have been troubled with livor complaint these last six years, many times been not able tv atten I to work. I have tried eveiytlnng in tho shape of patent medicines. I have been an outdoor patient in tho hospital ; I got at times temporary relief. I could not sleep on mv left side ; I kept rolling about backwards aud forwards in bed. When I got up ia tho morning, I would rather bo in bed, but work I had to attend to. When I had eaten a light meal i I found it always lod jcl in my stomach. Always costive, a great ' palpitation, pains acioss tha chest, more particularly under the left breast, always a violent pain between tho shoulders, felt just the same as if any one was pouring water down my back, feet always cold. Happened to get one of your bills when you came to St. Asaph street, which explained to me the symptoms I was labouring under. When I applied to you, yon told me all my symptoms and guaranteed me a perfect cure, which, I am happy to say, you have done through your herbal treatment. I should recommend those troubled with liver complaint to place themselves under your treatment. I am, sir, tmly thankful, William Manson.
