CRIPPLED. FOR TWO YEARS WITH RHEUMATISM. A CASE THAT BAFFLED THE BEST /' ; :• MEDICAL SKILL. LOST THE USE OF HIS ARMS AT TIMES. " ' TWO YEARS OF THE GREATEST "-i AGONY. -THEN CURED FOR GOOD : /BY , DR..;WILLIAJ\IS'S PINK PILLS. People- tortured With Rheumatism have only to read what James W. Peacock says to be convinced that there lies a'cure for -theta 'in' •Dn ;AVilliams 1 s '' Pink Pills. Mr. • l'eaooct was -i actually paralysed with pain •,and suffered the greatest agony for'two years. Tho'best medical attention was only able to ease ;him for a time. Now Dr. AVilliams's ,I'ink Pills don't merely ease Rheumatic pain ; ■ tlioy drive the .complaint clean out of the .system.; Rheuniatic' sufferers can provo this , by giving them a thorough "trial. . :"I' htt'd; Rhfcumatism off' and on for about , two;-years,-" said.-Mrj. Peacock. ■ "I was at-tackedl-from "the neck to 'both hips, across the ■•' shoiilders'," aiuV down tlio arms. Every now arid thon I'd have to knock off work and lay up at home. At times, I could hardly move in bed; at other times I could .not "turn -I my - -head nor move my'arms. It ,\vas ti' great trouble for mo' .to lace'my' -;boots ; bonding at all gave me great pain. I was rubbed with turpentino' and'various .liniments,'but I only "got ease for a time. Every rubbing made tho parts so tender that .I could not bear'anyone to come near mo after each one. Tho least movement and I suffered fearfully. I could only walk very slowly, and very often I was so stiff that it ;.was 'all I could : do to drag myself along. ' I never'knew when an attack was going to I' tate ino. Perhaps - I'd go to bed all right 'and wake up in the morning 'practically unable/to move. I'd bo like this for days before I'd got a little ease. I might'get a sudden bout when working and have to como ihenio and take'to my 'bed.' - My mates can tell, you how I couldn't get my coat on with the pain; I had to get one of them to just throw it across my shoulders. . Often the pain was so fierce tliat it took me all my time to keep from' singing out'with it: I went off my food completely and lost weight -fast. I ■ went td a doctor and took his medicines, but I can't say that I got much 'better.' A friend of mine in New Zealand told me to give Dr. Williams's Pink Pills a trial.- I did, and it was marvellous tlio way they cured me, and they cured'mo for good, too, for I have never had a return of the Rheumatism since. My health iri'general is excellent." ■ Mr. Peacock's present address is' St. John St., Pynnont, Sydney.
