SKIN SORES.
• «—:« — : J. ,W. Shellard, Gkborne, cured by, Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. For seven years J. W. Shellard suffered untold agony from Eczema in its worst form. At times it nearly drove him mad. Little by little it wore down his whole health. No expense was spar' ed in trying to check the disease. The be"st doctors were consulted, and the most "famous remedies were tried. A small fortune was spent, bnfc all in vain. The disease spread, and Mr. Shellard's health sank lower and lower. He was one mass of itching, burning sores, from his ankles to his head. His state was really pitiable when he began to take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. Almost from the first box he improved. To-day he stands thoroughly cured. At first he could hardly believe that he was cured for good, but it is now several years since he has had the slightest sign of Eczema. So there is no doubt about it. He calls his recovery a .miracle; and certainly it proves, beyond all doubt, the marvellous pejwer of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills to- drive festering poison out of the blood. Mr. Shellard, who is the honest old verger of the Church of England, Gisborne, is also well-known in Hokitika, Lyttelton, and Christchurch. The facts of his case are familiar to every one, especially the church people of Gisborne, among whom he has lived far the past twenty-years,, respected by all. Itching, Burning, OoziEg Sores. "Though I am past 60," said Mr. Shellard, "I honestly feel as bright and healthy as many men Wenty yeans younger,, thanks entirely to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Palo People. They .cured me of the worst form of Eczema the doctors here had ever seen. I was literally covered from head to foot with sores that itched and burned and nearly drove me mad. Often I wanted to tear the flesh off my bones. Every* week I could feel a fresh lot of small, hard pimples pushing their way up through the skin. Then tne skin would crack, and the sores would itch and ooze until I was almost crazy. For seven long weeks I could not do a stroke of work. Tried every Remedy in Vain. "I tried all treatments, but nothing did me any real good," Mr. Shellard went on to say. "I have used no end of special soaps, ointment*, liniments, and lotions. But, of course, these things couldn't touch the cause of the trouble in the blood. Even the test doctors could not cure me, and the Nnhaka Hot Springs made me worse. I was. a regular wreck. I could neither eat not sleep well. Every year the disease spread. It even attacked my head. Whenever the disease appeared, my flesh became red and swollen. I grew thinner, weaker, and more helpless every week. Then a friend told me how Dr. Williams' Pmk Pills had cured another case of Eczema by driving the poison out of the blood., I made up my mind to give them a trial* ■A Wonderful Transformation. "After the first box I noticed an improvement," continued the honest, old verger. "First my appetite picked up. Then after every box I began to gam in strength and weight. Soon the irritation from the eczema began to go down. My skin lost its terrible burning, itching feeling ; the pimples dieap-i peared, and left a clean, soft, smootk surface. I could hardly believe that these little pills had rid me of my old trouble. It took sixteen boxes to core me," added Mr. Shellard, "but I have not had a single traco of Ecsema since, so I am sure that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured me positively and permanently." 1 There could be no greater proof about the power pi Dr. Williams' Pink Pills as a blood medicine. The only possible way to cure Eczema is to' sweep out of the blood all the itching, festering poison that causes these soTes. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills alone can do that because they actually make new blood. They do just the one thing, but they do it well. That is the simple scientific reason why they cure all blood diseases like anaemia, bad complexion, biliousness, indigestion, headaches, backaches, lumba.go, rheumatism, sciatica, neuralgia, nervousness, St. Vitus' dance, loss of vitality, asthma, general weakness, irregularity of the blood-supply, and the s special ailments of growing girls and women. Remember Dr. Williams' Pink Pills don't act on the bowels. Neither do they bother with mere symptoms. They will cure no disease that is not caused by bad blood.
