NEURALGIC PAINS.

Among the causes of neuralgia the most important is the general physical condition of the patient. Neuralgia is most common in persons reduced in strength by over-work or some form of over-exertion, physical or mental, or by loss of sleep. Anaemia or lack of good, red blood is a common cause of neuralgia. The reason for this is plain. The nerves get their nourishment through the blood. When the blood is thin and weak the nerves are badly nourished, they become inflamed and neuralgic pains are produced. These pains have been described as the "cry of a starved nerve." Hot applications to soothe these inflamed nerves and Dr Williams' Pink Pills to build up the blood and carry the needed elements to the nerves is the correct treatment and one that has brought good results in so many cases that it is no longer an experiment. Headache, backache, sleeplessness, nervous debility, nervous breakdown, St. Vitus's dance all show good results under the tonic treatment with Dr Williams' Pink Pills. All chemists and storekeepers sell these pills at 3/- per box, six boxes 16/6. Further information on the tonic treatment of "Diseases of the Nervous System" is contained in a useful booklet which will be sent free to any applicant, by the Dr Williams' Medicine Co., Box 845, G.P.0., Wellington. .10
