CURING SCIATICA
The same principles must be observed iu treating sciatica as in any other disease if a really permanent cure is looked for. The correct treatment goes a step beyond the relief of tire symptoms, and cures the cause. vSeiati-i is a nervous disorder, just like neuralgia. It is often spoken of as neuralgia of the sciatic nerve. One medical writer of high repute has said it is the c:y of the nerves for food. The complaint indicates that the nerves are weak and run down, or lack tone, as the medical man puts it. Sometimes a blow or injury to the leg sets the trouble going. The affected leg should have as much rest as possible. If the patient can keep to a bent or a couch so much the better. Dr Williams’ Pink Pills should be given to build up the blood, as it is from, tho blood the nerves get the “food” the medical writer says they are crying for. Thin blood causes n«rvec to become weak ; building up the blood restores nerve force. Under Dr V'illiam*' Pink Pille improvement is usually noticed in a short time, and the treatment should be continued until all traces o: the aomplaint have disappeared. You can get Dr' Williams’ Pink Pill* at your rQ...C —-i Advt.l
