PROFESS OB" aUSC OT T MAY NOW BE CONSULTED- AT- HIS RESIDENCE, SOUTH TOWN BELT,. CHHISTOHURCH, Secend Door East from Colombo Street , , T E S T'-I M ! <O N, X A'L',B. " \ A WONDERFUL CURE. * ' J ' PBOPEBBOR GUBCOTT, _ South Town Belt Deae Sib,— l have been troubled with nervous debility for thepast eight years, brought on, as you have explained in the Canterbury* Times by the indiscretion of early youth. I have spent scores of j 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 j town at once, though you told me you could treat me. equally as well I by stopping and attending to my work as in losiagiinxe by coming to town. I was unfit for work, so decided to come to town for. a spell, as I could neither nor sleep. My miud wandered ; I had a I desire to be 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, my heart palpitated violently, I would start almost at my own shadow.- My mind, in fact, was not, my own. I saw y0u,,,0n my arrival in town, when you were, in Manchester street, and you then told me that it would take three mopths at the very least to effect a perfect cure* and that I must comply, exactly with your instructions ; if ftob,yo» would not guarantee a cure. lam happy now to say that I did as you told me to. the very regulating my hours and habita, and that now, after the lapse of fifteen weeks, my memory is restored, my sight has become strong again, my miud 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 seel uded lives whose sufferings are precisely what my own were before I came to you, and who, although in health, would be reajly 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* Jf thiß should be read by any of those persons, buffering 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 Guseott. — Believe me, yours faithfully, Richard Dobson . P.S. — ;I leturn 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,, Professor Gdssoott. Sir, — 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 had very little faith in you, but you treated me suocessf ully, and I am thankful to be able to bear testimony to the fact that within a month from date of your undertaking my case I was completely restored to health. — 1 am, dear sir, yours faithfully, CSigned) Jane Smith. Sydenbam, between Colombo and Montreal streets. To Professob Guscott. „ . SIR> — For many years I was a hopeless invalid, and for twelve mo.ntbs unable to attend to business. My breathing was bard, and at times I was propped up in bed. The medical man who attended me Baid that I was doomed to be a sufferer from asthma for the rejnainder of my days ; but my daughter took upon, herself to call upon you and explain the nature of my complaint, which you undertook to cure. With that apathy with which an invalid submits to almost anything I suffered my daughter to hav.e 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 make this known as much to fulfil a duty, as to benefit you. There are 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, OhristchureJi, Tuam street, Christchurch, * ""' ' ' April 28, 187&. To Professor Guscott. Sib, — I have been troubled with liver complaint these last six yeaTs, many times been not able to attend to work. I have tried everything in the shape 6f patent medicines. I have been au outdoor patient in the hospital ; I got at times temporary relief. I cbuld not sleep on my' left side ; ilcept "rolling about backwards and forwards in bed. When I got up in the morning, I would rat&er be in bed, but work I had to attend .to. When I had e»ten a light mea I "found it always lodged in my' stomach. Always costive, a great palpitation, pains across the chest, more particularly under the left breast, always a violent pain between the shoulders, felt just the same as if any one was pouring water down my T)ack, feet always cold. Happened to get one of your bills' when you came to St. AaapTi 'street, which explained to me the symptoms I was labouring ;un&erl " "WHenl applies to you, you told me all xny symptoms and guaranteed me a perfect cure, which, I "am happy to say, you have done through your',' herbal treatment: 1 should .recommend those troubled with liver coinplaiht to ~ place themselves under your treatmeat.
