CRIPPLED WITH RHEUMATISM
HANDS, AHMS AND LEGS PEAC TICAXLY USELESS. CUrintchurcli Woman Cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pijls. "Some years back I became almost crippled with Rheumatics," said airs Samuel Golding, 6, Vogel-st., Richmond, Christchurch, New Zealand. "They appeared first in my hands, spread up my arms, and went to both legs. I used to suffer most dreadfully, my hands were practically useless. Every knuckle and joint swelled up. I couldn't hold a needle or do my hair or dress myself. I fortunately had my children about mc, or I don't know "what I should have done. Some weeks I cduid hardly ''." a teacup 'to my lips. I felt helpless. I d cry because I couldn't do things for myself. My wrists and fingers got quite distorted. I couldn't straighten my arm*. I had to bathe my Wrists - to get a little e<l se. I had linjments rubbed in, but 1 only got ease for the time.' My knees were stiff. I couldn't bend them, and only walked elowly and Umplngly. My limbs were jfnll of burning pain. I couldn't move my arms any way. The least change of wfeather set the palps going. Oh, it was misery. You'd think every joint and muscle was rusty, they were so stiff. One day a neighbour said, 'Mrs Colding, why don't you take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills?' So I bought a couple of boxes. I felt better after the second box and kept on. Bit by bit tie stiffness went out of every joint. The swellings got less, and my fingers" got less knotted up. At last I was quite rid of Rheumatism, and able to use each limb as I wished."
