BED-RIDDEN CRIPPLE.

CURED OP RHEUMATISM BY DR. WILLIAMS' PINK PILLS.

" 1 was a pain-racked, bed-ridden cripple till I took Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. They drove ev«*ry drop of aching acid out of my system, and made me as active as a schoolgirl. They neved did more for any woman in -New Zealand."

That is tii» straight, solemn statement mace by the wile ot .Francis King, a, prosperous South Island settler, For nine years -\lr. and Mrs. King have lived in Utarabut they are also well known in I'ortrose, Invercargill, and Core. '• i was so helpless that I had to bo lifted in and out of bed," said Mrs. King. "The Rheumatism knotted and twisted my hands, and my legs were completely crippled. The pain nearly drove me mad. Often i screamed aloud. Neither doctors nor common medicines did mo the least good—but Dr. Williams' l'ink Tills for .['die People cured in© like magic. They raised me from my bod, and made me the strong active woman I am to-day." The news of this wonderful case was published nearly five years agoand the medical profession was naturally anxious to know if it was a lasting euro or not. 80 a special commissioner called on Mrs. King, and found her just as healthy and active as when Dr. Williams' Pink Pills first cured her. .

Yes," she cried, "I'm cured for good ! My blood was in c wretched state when we lived at Gore, and my whole health broke down. Mr. King called a doctor in, but I rapidly grew weaker. Terrible headaches made me suffer something awful. I got hot and cold by turns, and changed from a fiery red to a sickly yellow. My stomach was all upset, and no medicines did me any good. Everything 1 ate turned sour. My blood was full of —and that, 1 suppose, caused the Rheumatism that crippled me. "After these attacks of Indigestion, my hands and legs used to swell up," Mrs. King went on to say. " Then my fingers grow stiff and my joints sore and swollen. Hard, ugly knots came up 011 my knuckles, and my legs got so stiffened with pain that I couldn't walk. In a few mouths 1 was absolutely crippled. The agony made mo scream aloud, and everyone said I was the most pitiable sight in Now Zealand. "Of course 1 had doctors. They all said it was Rheumatism in its worst form. They declared 1 was hopelessly incurable. Then Mr. King brought a fourth doctor from Dunedin—but he could do no more than the others. I resigned myself to be a rheumatic cripple for life. My hands and legs were all deformed', and I was twisted and paralysed with pain. For six years I suffered untold torturea burden on my family and friends. "At last my husband decided to give Or. Williams' Pink Pills a fair trial," continued Mrs. King. "He got a few boxes from Templetou, the Waikawa storekeeper, Mr. TenipToton said he had no faith in them —but my husband had made up his mind. " The first two boxes didn't seem to do me any good," Mrs. King went on, "but, to my delight, I got a wonderful appetite while taking the third box, Then I felt my strength coming back every day. Soon the swelling went down in my hands and legs, and my joints were not nearly so sore. Gradually I got back the use of my legs. All the pain disappeared, and my health improved so much that I have never had Indigestion or Rheumatism since. Twenty-six boxes cured me for good." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured Mrs. Kingby driving the rheumatic poison out of her blood. They actually make new blood—just that; nothing more. In the same way, they drive out the germs of othe. diseases, and build up the blood to carry healing, health, and strength to every noot and corner of the body.
