RHEUMATISM.

«, tUMBAGO AMD SCIATICA. ! The attacks are generally brought on by chills when the body is overheated, 1 or by exposure to damp or ooiu draughts, which act, not upon the | bonea < or muscles, but the uric acid in the blood, which is the cause of the disease. Uric acid is found \ in email quantities in many articles of ■ diet, which when consumed pass into 1 the blood. The failure of the liver and kidneys to filter and absorb this acid leads to an accumulation in the system, tends to clog the circulation and harden the tissues forming the blood vessels. Thus every movement of the affected P&rts causes you intense agony. The pains are affected more or less by cold or heat. A damp day will double you up, or the warmth of the bed will intensify the pain. "I have been troubled with Rheumatism ever since I was a < youth of seventeen (I am now forty-six)," writes Mr Hugh Littleton, Aparimu, Southland, " and have tried almost every remedy advertised and otherwise, but it has remained for Dr Morse's Indian Root Pills to give me relief and hope of . a permanent cure. I have taken two Indian Root Pills at bedtime every night for over twelve months and with the exception of one or two slight atw tacks, I nave been absolutely free fqr many months. Only those who have suffered from Rheumatism can conceive the excruciating pain, and many a time I have had it bo bad in the shoulders that I had to get someone to assist me to put on my clothes or to take them off. Dr Morse's Indian Root Pills are indeed a wonderful remedy, correcting and. regulating the whole system. Other pills are no good. They gripe and scour your stomach and intestines, and a day or two after you are just as constipated aa ever. < You have my full permission to use this." In order to obtain permanent relief Dr Morse's Indian Root Pills arfd Comstock's Nerve and Bone Liniment should be used as directed. Obtainable at all chemists and stores, or will be posted by the W. H. Comstock Co., Ltd\, 58 Pitt Street, Sydney, on receipt of price. Pills le lid (6 bottles 6s 6d; Liniment 2s 6d (6 bottles 13s 6d). 12^
