[Saturday 5 July 1919 Stirling East, South Australia, 10th April, TS05. Mr. *. E. Kugelman; Herbal Practitioner, Dear Sir, "About 14 years ago I began to lose my health. I felt too weak and ill to get about my house hold duties. I consulted a doctor at Adelaide, who stated that I suffered from weakness and general debility; also that my lungs were in a very weak state, and that 1 was liable to go off into Consumption. This doctor prescribed for me, and I took the medicine faithfully. I was under this doctor for six months, but I was gradually getting weaker and weaker. I then tried a doctor at Stirling West, whose treatment I carried out for two years. Unfortunately, however, I kept on getting worse and worse, although I was treated by four doctors during six years. I suffered too, from Internal troubles ulceration. I nearly died from loss of blood; indeed, it is wonderful that I am alive, and I would have been dead long ago had I not been fortunate enough to consult you, which I did about six years ago, when your diagnosis astonished me. It was so different from what I had been told by doctors that I gladly began your herbal treatment, and am so thankful to be able to state that I so soon began to improve and get stronger, and that the ulceration and all the internal troubles disappeared without an operation of any kind, and that strength rapidly came back to me, so that I became as strong and as healthy as ever I could wish to be. I remain, ever thankful, (Signed) (Mrs.) L. SCUDDS. Sworn before me at Uraldia, this 10th day of April, 1905. Issued) THOS. OLIVER, J.P. NAIRNE (S.A.)] [The West Australian.
