NEURALGIA

People think of neuralgia as a pain in the head or face but neuralgia mav affect any nerve of the body. Different names are given to it when it affects certain nerves Thus neuralgia of the sciatic nerve is called sciatica but the character of the pain and the nature of the disease i-. tbo same, tho cause is the same and the remedy to be effective must be the sam*-. The pain of neuralgia is caused by starved nerves. The blood, which normally carries nourishment to tho. nerves, for some ’oason no longer does so and the pain that you feel is the •cry of the nerves for food. The reason why the blood fails to properly nourish the nerves is often because the blood itslef is weak and thin. Anaemia, or thin blood, is the most common cause of neuralgia. Build up the thin blood with Dr 'Williams* PinkPills and yon are attacking neuralgia, at its root. These tonic pills also have a peculiar and direct a> tion on the nerves so that they are probably the very best possible remedy :or the treatment, of neuralgia.
