RHEUMATISM CAN BE CURED/ TREATMENT THROUGH THE BLOOD MEETS WITH SUCCESS. AN ACCOUNT OF HOW A CURE WAS FOUND AFTER SUFFERING MANY YEARS. Medical science reveals the fact that in' cases of Rheumatism there is a marked. thinning of the sufferer's blood. It has also been found that treatment which re- , news the blood and tones the system, enables it to throw off Rheumatism. These are two absolute facts winch stand out in the search for the real cause of Rheumatism. The great medical specialists are by no means agreed, as to the exact cause of Rheumatism, as many as seven different causes are suggested by different writersIt is an absolute fact that Rheumatism has been cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Cures are known of and talked of in neighbourhoods where cripples have been restored to active health. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a blood-making tonic medicine, and the now 'blood they make .enables tho system to throw off the complaint. The case of Mrs. M. A. Hately, 18. McAndrow Road, South Dunedin, shows how they cure;—- " I had an attack of Rheumatic Fever years ago, and it left Rheumatism in my system," said Mrs. Hatoly, "Every winter an attack would come on and last for weeks at a. stretch, and I was often laid up for several clays, and suffered excruciating pain. Years went on this way, till at last ono dreadful attack came on. I went to Auckland to my married daughter's home, thinking the" change might benefit m© a, little. I passed through the boat journey fairly well, but a fortnight after my arrival quito a sudden turn seized me. On© evening when I pot up to go to bed I could scarcely move. In the morning every joint was hugely swollen. My wrists and elbows and tho backs* of my hands wore hardly recognisable. My knees were double their proper size. The doctor was called in; at one© ho applied hot flannels and fomentations, just to give a little ease, for the pain was enough to make anyono scream. I could not help . doing it. For five weeks I was laid up in bed! in torture, dreading the lightest touch.' They could barely lift mo to change the blankets. I would say ' let me lie.' t I was in such agony. Every joint was stiffened. I could just feed myself, and that was all. I could barely close my fingers. I could not lift my hands as high as my shoulders to do my hair. I tried plenty of liniments, but I might as well have used water, so in despair I gave them up. When I got back to Dunedin the attack came on again, and I did not know which way to look for relief. I could not get a boot big enough, the toes ' and insteps and ankles were swollen out of all shape. I would have my wrists and knees wrapped up in flannel bandages. If I did got out of bed I was so weak and so beat, too, I could just shuffle along an inch or so at a time. I don't think any woman has suffered worse, and I would hay© been ' ■ thankful to die. At last I read about Dr.. Williams' Pink Pills, and gave them a trial., Towards the end of the fiecohd box I felt » little ease. I took 14 boxes altogether, and gradually the cure came, and I have never . Felt so well in my life as I, do now. I: can - bustle, about and do the housework easily, and I have not an ache or pain. ,;, t v Dr. Williams' Pink Pills ; are sold by all y dealers and if in doubt send to the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co. of Australasia, Ltd., Wellington, 3s one box, six boxes 16s 6d.
