THE TRUE CAUSE OF RHEDHATISS

Is Acid in the Blood, and it Can Only be Cured Through the Blood.

Greymouth Woman Who Was Cured Relates Her Experience.

Not many years ago doctors thought rheumatism was only a local pain caused by exposure to oold or wet. Now they know that rheumatism is .caused. by the blood becoming tainted with uric acid. This acid. contracts th© muscles, stiffens the joints, and irritates tho nerves. Then the cold and wet make the joints and muscles groan with aching rheumatism. You blame the weather hut the real cause is acid in the blood. If not promptly treated the stiffness spreads and the pain grows worse each year until you arc a helpless cripple, tortured day and night. If the disease touches the heart it means sudden death. You can’t cure rheumatism with liniments, plasters o> hot cloths. You must go to the root of tho trouble in the blood. The one sure, scientific way to cure rheumatism is Hr Williams’ Pink Pills, because they actually. make new blood. They sweep out the poisonous acid, loosen the joints and muscles, and bring ease and freedom where before had been pain and misery. The following is a typical instance of how they cure. “About four years back Rheumatism gradually appeared in both my hands, and in time I was quite crippled," said Mrs Robert Leach. 17, Leonard street, Greymouth. “I suppose it came on from putting my hands in oold water and hot water for my household duties. It began with a tingling and burning hot pain in every finger joint. I could move the joints hut they swelled up dreadfully and the skin grew red and shiny. I tried all sorts of liniments and had medicine from tho doctor but got no relief. My hands at times would be quite numb. At night I had to hang them over the side of the bed. I could only sew or knit with the greatest difficulty, all the time the pain never left me. .The doctor said I had Ohronio Rheumatism, and I got very down hearted, as I quite expected to be crippled in the future. In winter I felt worse than in the summer. I was a sufferer for more than a year. At last I tried Dr Williams’ Pink Pills, and by slow degrees the pains left my hands. My finger joints got easier and (die swelling began to go down. I kept on with the pills and the numbness and soreness went for good. I’ve never been troubled since. I also felt much brighter and stronger and toned Up in every way, and my appetite improved. • My health now is excellent, there isn’t a trace of Rheumatism left.”
