IS ACID IN THE BLOOD, AND IT CAN ONLY BE CURED THROUGH THE BLOOD, CHRISTCHURCH WOMAN WHO WAS CURED RELATES HER EXPERIENCE. Mrs .John Cockle, 25 Brougham street, Sydenham, Cliristcliurch, says:— I. used to do a good deal of laundry work, and I suppose my hands being always in the Water and my getting wet.often brought on rheumatism. It appeared first in the right hand, and ■ then ...(ho, left began, to. suffer, and gradually the poison spread through my system, I got worse and worse. Jly right knee got very bad; it swelled up tremendously and became inflamed and angrylooking. I could not bend it, and to kneel was out of the question. 1 rubbed the parts with every liniment I heard of, but the pain always came back. I felt so soro I'd scream if anyono came near me. I couldn't do any housework; my daughter-in-law had to help me, and often \ had to get in in.y next,door neighbour, w'hp, knows "-how much I suifered, to perhaps fasten my dress',;'or'do'.'a.'little trifle, for I couldn't put my arms behind me or raise them to "do my hair.- I couldn't walk outside, and I could only hobblo about the house 'by means of a (•tick, or by taking hold of the furniture. 1 was quite helpless. At night I sometime; wouldn't close my eyes till daybreak with the pain. I would .often have to call out- for tonieono to -lift mo into a, fresh', position, and. in the morning. I'd have, to.-; bo-helped up.- I got no- lasting benefitfrom the 'doctors treatment, so I started Dr Williams''..Pink'. Pills, My son had' tried them' as a 'tonic" awl found-tliem eo good. I fancied I was.a shad© better when I had finished the first box, sol got some more.. I took three- pills' a day at first, then I doubled the dose,,and gradually got the poison out of my system. If ever I felt another attack coming on I should take another course of' Dr Williams Pink Pills with confidence." ■•■ '
