NEURALGIA AND POOR BLOOD.

There are very few cases of neuralgia that are not caused by a thin, rundown condition of the blood. Almost the first thing the doctor looks for in neuralgic patients is tho amende appearance. , There aro two things to do for any form of neuralgia. Apply’ heat to the affected part to soothe the pain, and feed the nerves by taking a tonic containing the elements needed by them. Heat as afforded by hot liannel, liotwater bags, etc., lulls the inflamed nerves into temporary’ quiet. It does not cure. Not until the nutrition of the nerves is restored will the inflammation subside and the neuralgic state be remedied.- Never under an,y circumstances sboukLdrugs to deaden the pain be used. 1 Dr. AVilliams’ Pink Pills furnish to the blood.tho needed elements, and the blood conveys them to the nerves. The only way of getting food or medicine to the nerves is through the blood. Remember that. Neuralgia is a general term. It means inflammation of a nerve. It is given different names according to the nerve affected. Sciatica is neuralgia of the sciatic nerve. Applications of heat will soothe the pain in all forms of neuralgia, and Dr. AVilliams’ Pink Pills will correct the condition that causes it. If yon have neuralgia you can send to your dealer at once for a box of Dr. AA’illiams’ Pink Pills. A useful booklet on “Diseases of the Nervous System" will be sent free to any address by the Dr. Williams’ Aledioine Co., Box 845, G.P.0., Wellington. - 1
