NEURALGIA AND POOR BLOOD.

There aro very few cases of neuralgia that are not caused by a thin run down condition of the blood. Almost the first thing the doctor looks for in neuralgic patients is tho anaemic appearance. There are two things to do for any form.of neuralgia. Apply heat to the ...affected part to soothe the pain, and feed the nerves by taking a tonic con•taining the elements needed by them. Heat as afforded by hot flannel, hot water hags, etc., lulls the inflamed nerves into temporary quiet. It does not cure. Not until tho nutrition of the nerves is restored will the inflammation- subside and the neuralgic state ho-remedied. Never under any circumstances should drugs to deaden the pain be used. . ! Dr Williams’ Pink Pills furnish to .the blood the needed elements and the blood conveys them to the nerves. The only way of getting food or medicine to the nerves is through the blood. Remember that. ..Neuralgia is a general term. It Means inflammation of a nerve. It is given different names according to the nerve affected. Sciatica is neura?gia of the sciatic nerve. Applications of heat will soothe tho pain in’ all forms of neuralgia, and Dr Williams’ Pink Pills will correct the condition that causes it. If you have neuralgia you can send •i to your dealer at once for a box of -Dr Williams’ Pink fPills. A useful -booklet on “Diseases of the Nervtius '/System ” will"be sent free to any address by the Dr 'Williams’ Medicine Co., Box 845, G.P.0., Wellington. 1898
