RHEUMATISM, o-z — Something Needed to Clear the Complaint from the System, • * .. A Sufferer Who Has Tried This Method Relates his Experience. $ Experience \ n treating Rheumatism lias made it plain that not much is to be grained by rubbing the affected parts with liniments or by ■ using- ] 10 t applications, the seat of the trouble is not to bo reached in this way. There is still uiitereiiijc of- opinion amongst medical men as (0 the actual cause of Rheumatism, but such good results.in Australasia have followed treatment with Dr. Williams Pink Pills, that any sufferer with Rheumatism may feel confidence in trying them. The principle of treatment with this remedy is that'thev tqno the system to a point that enables it to throw oft the Rheumatic poison in the blood, through the ordinary channels of the body. Further, Rheumatic, sufferers have found that these pills permanently cure them. The complaint does not return, so long as they keep themselves in a reasonably good state of general health. .Phe experience of Mr. Richard Griffiths, a Melbourne bricklayer, residing at ,11 Horlwrt Street, Albert Park, should Ira of interest to any Rheumatic sufferer. Ihu following are his own words:— "Through exposure at my work in the building trade I contracted Rheumatism, for I couldn't always be putting my jacket on for every shower. Twinges began to tror.ble me off and on in all rnv limbs. My thighs were the first attacked; then my calves aiul arms and shoulders. The attacks would come on qui to suddenly, and almost take .my legs from under me. First P would feel them in one part and then in another.' The joints would, go ouito stiff and creaky. Some days I could hardly put on my clothes, or lift my arms abovo my head, Hint nt work it might bo just the same. I could often not lift my arms to do work that was above my head. The pains would be agonising. Such darling twinges would go through each muscle. At times I could not grip anything firmlv. My fingers would be so stiff, I could not open or close my hands freely. Many a night 1 would lie awake for hours, just afraid to turn, for I always felt worse as soon as I got warm, and pains would settle in the shin bones like, strokes from a planing iron. I used to try all kinds of liniments, but the nibbing would only send the pain away for a time. Any extreme of weather would start the pains. I dreaded any change in the weather. I could not <staud any one coming near me at times for fear of touching the limbs, they would feel so sore and tender. It was painful to sit down and hard to gat up out of a chair, I would be so stiff. I would burst into a nerspiration some (lays with the pain. My anpetite fell away, nd f felt ecnerally run down, too. but a course of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills took aiv'ay all these troubles. The freedom be'gan to come back, to my limbs, and thc> stiffness gradually went out of my muscles. I have not had a trace of it since."" The, price is 3s. per box. six boxes IG--6d., and if you have trouble in gettin* them send a imslal note for the amount lo the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co of Australasia. Ltd., Wellington, and they will be sent post free by return mail.— Advt. ,
