A WORD ABOUT RHEUMATISM.
A Great Sufferer Explains how the Complaint can be Cured.
Half measures in treating lllioumntLsm are no good. There's not m f senso in merely relieving tho pain, Abe complaint is bound to com© back > most likely when it is cold and damp. It s true that a certain amount of reh°* cau be gained by. hot applications and rubbing. lSut that is not a. cure. Tliero is something in the acid medical men call it which causes Rheumatism. Therefore Rheumatism lfl only cured when the cauße is driven out. That's why rubbing and poultices ar3 no good—it's in tho blood; they can't touch tho cause. On the other hand Dr Williams' Pink Pills can bo expected to euro Rheumatism. They are for tho blood, and they make new blood and tone the whole system enabling it to throw off the Rheumatic Poison. It's a fact that they've cured a lot of. Rheumatism in Australasia. The following particulars given by a one time sufferer illustrate how they cure.
"I suffered for years off and on from Rheumatism, and it only, got worse ps I grow older," said Mrs Richard Phillips, Bourlce Street, Near Castle Street Kalgoorlie. "I was very fond of gardening and one evening after kneeling in some wet grass I foit myself gett.ng dreadfully stiff. I was married at the time with three children. I had this attack for a little time and then it wore off only to come on again some months later. X would suffer dreadfully when the attacks were on. I used to have to cook on a colonial oven, and every time i bent over it I would feel 06 it 1 were failing down. The Rheumatism was chiefly across the back and in. the hips and the buck of my knees. X would feel as though X lrad lead at the back of them, they were so'heavy. feet would swell dreadfully so that in summer I could not dream' of,putting a boot on.. X could hardly put my feet to the ground such paiins went thr-ough mo, aud- when X came up the back steps I would have to drag my feet after me. My left wrist and ha-nd got very stiff. , I slept all right at night.- I dare not sib in a draft or a coki place and X felt every change in the weather. X was in bed a fortnight once with it. X used t'j get a feeling as if a cross cut saw had gone through my back. I would hi afraid folr any one to touch me or to come near me. I would be in pain from the solo of my foot to the crown of my head. When I started Dr. "Williams' Pink Pills, I was most oarefu! in following the directions as to diet, etc. X would keep the bov in the pocket of my wrapper so I should not forget to take a dose at mid-day, and I used to take two pills at night as well. I took a good many boxes and' by the time they were finished • the Rheumatism had disappeared completely. and my health has sinoe been all I could wish."
