RHEUMATISM HELD THE FORT.

A 15 Years’ Siege.

Dr Williams’ Pink Pills to the Rescue and the Enemy Defeated.

Mr Ed. Barsley, of 19 Waverleyroad, Woollahra, aaid to a reporter who was sent to interview him :

“ 1 am a pianoforte tuner by profession, and am well-known throughout the colony ; this latter fact should add weight to my statements. “ Now to deal with the subject of your visit. 1 have on and off for the last 15 years been a martyr to rheumatism and, indeed, have quite recently recovered from a very severe attack. My discovery is that Dr Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People are an unfailing remedy for this torturing disease, and to emphasise my case I must tell you that each of my ailments—for I had more than one, as you will learn later —were so formidable as said to be incurable by the hospitals and doctors by whom I was treated. Towards the end of April last year I had a very bad attack of rheumatism, and this was accompanied by a swelling in the groin, but without pain. A chemist gave me some liniment to rub on the affected part, but this brought temporary relief only. After this 1 went to work again for two or three days, but was soon compelled to give in, being unable to continue any longer. I then consulted a doctor.” “ Was his treatment successful ? ” M he told me mine was an " , 0 ' I case, and he could givo exceptiona. aßsls t alice ; that I was me but little a com pi ox trouble—suffering from , e Wlt j, locomotor hip joint disaa. , oculigt toU me ataxia. An eimuen >tic tttropv .- that it was a case ot o) „ xi r “ What did you do ‘ ’ Barsely ? ” nitals I went to three different host Q in all and came out no better tha n went in. A friend i met in oik hospital asked me if I had given Dr Williams’ Pink Pills a trial; I said I had not. My friend at once advised me to do so, adding that he knew of some wonderful cures they had effected in cases of locomotor

“ Did you follow his advice ?” “ I am rejoiced to say, I did.” “ With what result ?" “ Well, by the time I had taken throe boxes I felt better, and for this reason determined to go on with the m. The benefits derived from continuing the treatment are very evident. I can now move about fairly wall, gwting up and down stairs without any assistance, whe- as when 1 left the hospital I could only crawl about with difficulty. lam returning to my usual avoc ition cf pi&tiofore tuning, and that, as you know, requires a clear ho .d amt the use of one’s limbs.” I do TOO feel equal to it, Mr Barsley ? ” i feel quite equal to it, and more too, for I shall be constantly travelling through the colony, and of this i shall be doubly glad, as it will afford me a valuable opportunity to bring sufferers and sceptics face to face with practical proof of the wonderful curative powers possessed be 1 . Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale Knple.” For the information of sufferers wi;n hip disease, we would especially mention that in connection with the ah jve marvellous cure that the hip b . us dislocated, necessitating the i : i i : and tissues doing extra duty for it.
