SCIATICA'S SWIFT SHOOTING PAINS

Made This Petone Man I'll and Wretched for Months.

Unable to Leave his Bed; Sleeping Draughts to get Ease—Cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.

When a reporter who was investigating the genuineness of cures by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, called at Petone, the people said to him; "You ought to go round to Walter Mullis, in Beach St.—his was a cure." "It was Sciatica," Mr. Mullis said, when he was asked about it; "it attacked the right leg; what I went through is past belief, I don't think any man could have endured more. For months at a time I was laid up in bed away from work, just crippled. At times I could barely turn in bed, and about the house I had to walk nearly doubled up. I had to have a stick perpetually in my hand. My leg shrank and such shooting agonising pains shot down to my calf. Often at three o'clock in the morning my wife would be warming flannels and getting me hot vinegar and mustard poultices, and yet the mustard would not raise a blister. Once nearly crazed with the pain I had to have deeping draughts administered or I would'have gone out of my mind. I fell affin weight and appetite and was a vreck of my former self. Any chill night bring on an attack. Often I would lave to be helped about, the house. It vas agony to get in and out Of a chair. Five doctors treated me, but in spite of their efforts I suffered until I read about Dr. Williams' Pink Pills curing Sciatica. I tried them, and the first box made the pain a trifle less. I kept on steadily and improvement continued.. I began to pick ap in every way, as I suffered less. At Last every twinge disappeared and I ani dad to say I have never had a relapse. I could not wish for better health than I have enjoyed since I finished the course." You can begin this treatment to-day and start on the road to health by getting a box of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People from the nearest chemist or direct from the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co. of Australasia. Ltd., Wellington. 3s. per box; six boxes 16/6.
