CRIPPLED FOR TWO YEARS WITH RHEUMATISM

A CASK THAT BAFFLED THE BEST MEDICAL SKILL. LOST THE USE OF HIS ARMS AT TIMES. TWO YEARS OP THE GREATEST AGONY. THEN CURED FOR GOOD BY DR WILLIAMS’ PINK PILLS. People tortured with Rheumatism have only to read what Mr James W. Peacock says to be convinced that there lies a cure for them in Dr Williams’ Pink Pills. Mr Peacock was actually paralysed with pain and suffered the greatest agony for two years. The best medical attention was only able to ease him for a time. Now, Dr Williams’ Pink Pills don’t merely ease Rheumatic pain; they drive the complaint clean out of the system. Rheumatic sufferers can prove this by giving them a thorough trial.

"I had Rheumatism off and on for about two years,” said Mr Peacock. "I was attacked from tho neck to both hips, across the shoulders and down the arms. EvOry now and then I’d have to knock off work and lay up at home. At times I could hardly move in bed; at other times I could not turn my head nor move my arms. It was a great trouble for me to iaco my boots; bending at all gave me great pain. I was rubbed with turpentine and various liniments, but I only got ease for a time. Every rubbing made the parts so tender that I could not bear anyone to come near mo after each one. The least movement and I suffered fearfully. I could only walk very slowly, and very often I was so stiff that it was all I could do to drag myself along. I never knew whdn an attack was going to taka mo. Perhaps l J d go to bed all right and wake up in the morning practically unable to move. I’d be like this for days before I’d get a little ease*. I might get a sudden bout when working and have to come home and take to my bed. My mates can tell you how 1 couldn’t get my coat on with tho pain; I had to get one of them to just throw it across my shoulders. Often the pain was so fierce that it took me all my time to keep from singing out with it. I went off my food completely, and lost weight fast. I went to a doctor and took his medicines, but I can’t say that X got much better. A friend of mine in New Zealand told me to giro Dr Williams’ Pink Pills a trial. I did, and it was marvellous the way they cured me, and they cured me for good, too, for I have never had a return of the Rheumatism 'ince. My hdalth in genera] is excellent.”

Mr Peacock’s present address is St. John street, Pyrmont, Sydney.
