CRIPPLED BY SCIATICA.

Wellington Man in Agony ■ with Darting Pains.

Could only Hobble About with aid of a stick—Cured by Dr, Williams’ Pink Pills.

A statement in a newspaper about people who have been cured by Sciatica by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, was of great service to Mr. Walter Mullis, 3 Beach St., Petone, near Wellington. He had suffered with sciatica badly for many months j had advice from five different doctors, and tried everything in the way of liniments without being able to rub the complaint away. This was not to be wondered ,at, because sciatica is a disorder of the nerves, and ho needed a nerve tonic like Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills to restore his nerves to a healthy state. Ho read how Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills had cured sciatica, tried them, and was cured. ‘‘My back got a wetting while I was working and sciatica attacked the right leg.” said Mr. Mullis. “What I went through is past belief, I don’t think any man could have endured more. For months at a time I was laid up in bed, away from work, just crippled. At times I could barely turn in bod, and about the house I had to walk nearly doubled up. ' I had to have a stick perpetually in ray hand. My leg shrank and such shooting agonising pains shot down to my calf. Often at three o’clock in the morning my wife would bo warming flannels and getting mo hot vinegar and mustard poultices, and yet the mustard would not raise a blister. Once, nearly crazed with the pain 1 had to have sleeping draughts administered or 1 would have gone out of my. mind. . X fell off in weight and appetite and was a wreck of my former self. Any chill might bring on an attack. Often I would have to be helped about. , The muscles felt so tivisted and strung that I never thought they would get supple again. Five doctors treated me, but in spite of their efforts I suffered until I read about Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills curing' sciatica. I tried them and the first box made the pain a trifle less. T kept on steadily and improvement continued, 1 began to pick up in every way, as I suffered less. . At last every twinge disappeared, and I am glad to say I have never had a relapse. I could not wish for better health than I have enjoyed since I finished the course. I can thank Dr. 'Williams’ Pink Pills and nothing else for a complete cure, and I am indeed grateful.” Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are sold by chemists and storekeepers or sent by mail on receipt of price, 3s per box, six boxes 16s 6cl, by the Dr. Williams’ Medicine Co. of Australasia, Ltd., Wellington.
