THE TRUE CAUSE OF RHEMATISM.

rs ACID IN THE BLOOD, AND IT CAN ' ONLY BE CUBED THROUGH TUB ." BLOOD. • ' '

CHRISTCHURCH WOMAN WHO WAS CUBED. RELATES . HER EXPERIENCE. . . f

Mrs. • John , Cookie, 25 Brougham Street, Sydenham, Christchurch, says:— "I used to do a good deal of laundry work, and I suppose my hands being always in the water, and my. getting. wet r often, brought 1 on rheumatism. It appeared first in the right hand, and then the left began' to suffer, and gradually the poison spread through my systtemV I got worse and worse. My right knee got very bad, it swelled up tremendously, and became inflamed and angry-looking. I could not bend.it, and to kneel was out of the question. I rubbed the parte-with every liniment I heard pf,- but the pain always come back. I felt so sore I'd scream if anyone came near me. I couldn't .do any housework,, my daughter-in-law had to help me, and often I had to get in my next door neighbour, who knows how much I suffered; to perhaps fasten my dress, or do a little trifle, for I couldn't put my arms behind me, or raise them to do my hair. I couldn't walk outside,' and I could only hobble about the honso by means of a stick, or by taking hold of the furniture. I was quite .helpless. At night, ,I sometimes wouldn't close me eyes till daybreak with the pain. I,would often have to ;3all out for someone to lift me into a'fresh',!position, and in tiie morning. I'd harve ti> be helped up. I got no lasting benefit from the doctor's treatment, so I started Dr. Williams' Pink PiHs. My son had tried them as a tonio and found them so good. I fancied I was a shade better when I had finished the first box, so I got some more. I took three; pills, a • day at first, then I doubled the ' dose and gradually got ■ the poison out of my system. If ever I felt another attack coming on I should take, another oonrse of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills with confidence."
