PLAIN SPOKEN DOCTORS IV!ELBOITRNB ‘AGE’ OK MEDICINE. On Saturday tho Melbourne ‘Ago’ had a sensible leader on ‘ Doctor?.' Speaking of the, great strides made by medical science, the ‘ Age' showed how little was known after all. "We give a medicine at random," says Sir Lauder Umnton. who was knighted for his knowledge, " with no defined idea of what it. shall do, trusting to chance for good results.” Sir William Broadbent, president of the College of Physicians, was nearly as candid when bo remarked that too many medicines were, given. And Sir John Forbes adds his testimony by saying; "In a very largo proportion of diseases treated by doctors tho disease is cured’ by Nature, not by them. The best doctors in New Zealand now admit these truths. They know tho mistake of giving too many medicines. They have given np the old-fashioned' idea that there must be a different medicine for each disease. Common diseases, they have learned, spring from one root—bad blood. They know that good, pure blood' is the best cure for most ills, from paleness to paralysis, and from rickets to rheumatism. In nine cases out of ten the only medicine needed is one that makes new blood. This is admitted by the highest authorities in Europe, America,” Australia, and New Zealand; and Dr Williams’s pink pills for pale people have just tins power of actually majosu new blood. This new blood sweeps out poisonous impurities, braces the nerves, and carries healing, health, and strength to every comer of the body. That is why these blood-building pills cure the very worst cases of amemia, indigestion, biliousness, headaches, backaches, lumbago, sciatica, neuralgia, hysteria, and the secret ailments of women. There is no mystery in their, action. Dr Williams’s pink pills simply make new, pure, .rich, red blood, and then, as Sir John Forbes says. Nature can cure disease without further aid. Hero is a case in point, right in New Zea-land:-Mr James Kelly, Collingwood, says Dr Williams’s pink pills cured his rheumatism positively and permanently. They did this because they made new blood, which swept out of his system all the rheumatic add t.Vn»t had crippled him with paralysing pain. They didn’t try to touch the pain direct, like liniments and doctors’ medicines, but they set the blood right, and then Nature sooji stopped the pain. “For fourteen years,” says Mr Kelly, “the muscles of my arms were drawn up in knots. J couldn't lift my hand above my head, even to put on my hat. And my legs were nearly as bad. In fact, I hadn’t a muscle, nerve, or joint that didn’t ache for all it was worth with rheumatism. I tried liniments, and nearly took ray skin off with turpentine, but that didn’t touch the root of my suffering. At last I road in the Wellington ‘Post’ how men and women in the Auckland, New Plymouth, Hawke’s Bay, Canterbury, and Otago districts thanked Dr Williams’s pink pills for curing them of rheumatism, neuralgia, headaches, and backaches, after everything else had failed. I got some as quick as I could, and the first box started to fix me up. I kept right on till they drove out every drop of tho painful poison and left me without an aching- muscle or a stiff joint. Now I feel like a two-year-old. "When people marvel at my activity and remark on my healthy look, I just give them the wrinkle for making new, pure, rich, red blood.” Mr Kelly’s case is just an illustration of what Sir Lauder Brunton, Sir Willing Broadbent, and Sir John Forbes said about the uselessness of ordinary medicines*— LAcbrt-a /If sy '■ssy
