A Melbourne advertisement extols Dr. Kugelmann s treatment for chronic catarrh claiming cures without operations. It cites testimonials from patients across Australia and outlines office dates in Ballarat and Melbourne with details for consultations and distant treatment by mail.
A collection of affidavits and sworn statements from patients in Victoria and New South Wales describe longstanding cures by Mr Kugelmann’s herbal treatments. Cases include chronic consumption, internal complaints, asthma, paralysis, breast tumors, goitre, and rheumatism. Patients report bleeding stopping, better digestion, regained strength, and return to work after years of illness.
James Patterson reports relief after a treatment in Wangaratta for chronic asthma that lasted years. He claims he has not suffered an asthma attack and notes his cataract recovery as well.
A 5000 pound reward is offered for proof that any certificates of cures issued by Mr Kugelmann are not genuine. The notice lists numerous diseases claimed as cured and promises payment to anyone who can disprove the authenticity of the certificates.
