KINDS OF RHEUMATISM

In popular language, the word rheumatims is a term that covers a multitude of ills of which pain is the chief symptom. Articular rheumatism, inflammatory rheumatism and rheumatic fever are all names for the same disease. Muscular rheumatism affects* the muscles and does not spread from one spot to another like inflammatory rheumatism. Lumbago is a form of muscular rheumatism. Some people have frequent attacks of rheumatism, especially those people who inherit a rheumatic tendency. They will continue to have recurring attacks until the blood is built up to a strength sufficient to overcome the rheumatic poison. External applications and drugs that simply relieve pain are useless. Dr Williams’ Pink Pills build up the blood and really correct the trouble. With the poisons in the blood there is a continual combat between the health forces and the disease. When the rheumatic poison prevails the blood gets thin rapidly. When the blood is’ made rich and red by 'Dr Williams’ Pink Pills the poisons are destroyed and expelled. There has been »o increase in the price of Dr Williams’ Pink Pills.
