THE DAYS OF RHEUMATISM.
MANY PEOPLE SUFFERING AGAIN ' ' V THIS WINTER. ' ' IT SHOULD BE, BANISHED RIGHT OUT OF THE SYSTEM. AUCKLAND MAN HAD A BAD TIME WITH' IT; COULDN'T MOVE IN BED; SPENT • SLEEPLESS NIGHTS WITH AGONISING PAIN—DROVE IT OUT OF HIS BLOOD WITH ; ; DR. WILLIAMS'S PINK PILLS. Theso are tho days of Rheumatism. Gnawing, pioTcing Rheumatism; aching, swollen, tender joints. Tho old enemy is back again this winter. Why? ' Simply becauso it wasn't banished—cleared right out of tho system—tho way Dr. Williams's Pink Pills banish it. ■ Now thero's this about' Rheumatism. It's in the blood —acid in' the blood which ill cold and damp causes all the paiu and agony in tho joints. Tho acids being thero all the timo—cold and damp only start tho pains going. That's why it's worso in winter, and that's why people with Rheumatic poison in their blood can always tell when it's going to rain.
Now about tho cure: Rheumatism is in the blood. A medicine that doesn't touch the blood doesn't touch the diseaso. Hot cloths and' liniments never cured Rheumatism. How could tlioy? It's in tho blood. And this is tho most important point of all —Dr. Williams's Pink Pills actually help to make new blood and they drive tho Rheumatic poison out. They fill your, veins with pure blood. They soothe your nerves; they build up your strength.. Against them Rheumatism and Sciatica haven't the ghost of a show. Remember also; people who cured their Rheumatism last winter with Di;. Williams's Pink Pills haven't the complaint this wintor. Mr v W. A. Pratt, of. Auckland, whose parents live at Newcastle, knows all about Rheumatism.
"Twelve months ago I put in the worst sis weeks of my life," said Mr. Pratt. "I had Rheumatism and it gave me fits' whilo it lasted. Tho dull aching pain attacked me in the arms and shoulders, and when I turned in bed I got a sharp twinge. For some time I could not wall: and had to hobble round on crutches. I could hardly dross myself and was pretty well helpless. Even brushing my hair gave me agony in tho arms. When sitting down I could not bear my feet to touch the ground, but had' to sit with them propped on a chair. For six weeks I was laid up in bed helpless. I could just manage to feed myself. I did not try to movo in bed. If I did I got such sharp twinges of pain that I was glad to keop still. All the timo I was in bed I had tho dull aching—no matter in what position I lay it was tho same. I went clean oil my food. I could not sleep much for tho pain. It was a dull weary time and I don't ever want to go through it again. I hall tho doctor attending mo but ho did me no good at all. Then I tried Dr. Williams's Pink Pills.. I had read of eases of Rheumatism they had cured and thought they would cure mo. By tho time that I had used three bosos tho pain had eased up wonderfully, so I kept on and six boxes drove the Rheumatism clean out of me. That is twelvo months ago, and I have not had tho least return since, though I've been wet through several times." Mr. Pratt is steward on tho s.s.- Wimmera, and is well known' to many Now Zealand travellers. Romembcr, Dr. Wiliams's Pink Pills aro for any complaint that a good supply of rich rod blood will cure, but you must have tho gonuino Dr. Williams's.
