Medical Mystery.
STRANGE CASE FROM OAMARU.
There has been too much mystery about medicine in the past—that is freely acknowledged by the leading doctors of to-day. They admit quite frankly that most diseases are due to the one cause—weak or .impure blood. Indigestion for instance, and nervous? ness, neuralgia, rheumatism, paralysis and decline Eeem to be different disease*, bat undoubtedly they are only different forms of the same disease: they are all diseases of the blood. The blood goes everywhere in the body, affecting all organs, tissues, nerves and muscles. If the blood is bad, it carries decay and disease. If the blood is good, it carries healing and health. Recognising this great scientific truth, the leaders of medicine are now abandoning mystery and relying more and more on purifying, increasing, strengthening and enriching the blood. Wh n they have made tbe blood good, they can leave nature to work out her own cores.
This is jthe latest and truest philosophy of medicine. Physicians, who hive risen above the old-fashioned mystery and mistakes, make uo secret of the fact that the greatest medicine for fighting all diseases of the blood is a concentrated tonic such as Dr Williams* pink pills for pale people, which build up the blood and tone up the nerves. Indeed, leading doctors are openly recommending this medicine to their patients, Of course, owing to the peculiar requirements of the New Zealand climate, doctors can recommend only the Dr Williams’ pink pills which are manufactured in Wellington according to the special formula suited to these Islands. Spanish and American substitutes, pat up ia small glass bottles, have never cured a single case in the whole of Maoriland. Doctors are careful to warn their patients that the only pills which can do them good are put up in wooden boxes, and can be recognised by the full address, Wellington, New Zealand, iu red capital letters on the outside wrapper. In this connection a very strange case is reported from the medical profession itself in Oamarn. Nurse Annie Bell, who lives iu Allen St. in that town, has proved beypnd peradventure the wonderful me of this remedy.
“ Seven years ago,” says Nurse Bell, “ I fell ill, and for three years I was an invalid. It started with Infineon, but, on account of the bad state of my blood, rheumatism set in. The pains in u«y arms, shoulders and ankles were tarrible. I was run down, weak and thin. For years I did not have a night’s good rest. 1 knew, of course, that rheumatism was a disease of the blood, so I decided to try Dr Williams* pick pills, which made the blood pure, neb, and red,. Before long there was a vast improvement, I began to relish my food, and to sleep properly. Gradually the pills drove all the impurity out of my blood, and left me in excellent health. Still I haven’t given up their use altogether. If ever the strain of nursing puts me out of sorts a few of these pills fill me with energy and brightness again.” Mrs Bell being a professional nurse, has seen the folly of medical mystery, and knows the supreme importance of good blood. Its importance hj recogs nised by all the prominent doctors in New Zealand, but it was first discovered by a distinguished graduate of Edinburgh University, Dr Williams, from whoee formula these wonderful bloodbuilding*, and nerve-toning pills are made. If you find that your local dealer has only foreign substitutes in glass bottles, which are not in the least suited to this climate, you can al ways obtain the genuine N.Z. pills, made from the special New Zealand formula, by writing direct to the Dr Williams’ medicine co., Wellington, at three shillings a box, or six boxes sixteen and six. These genuine pills are put up in boxes. Accept no pills unleis the full address, Wellington Now Zealand, is printed in red ou the outside wrapper. Insist on examining each package b lore you buy, and be quite suroihit those words are there.
