In Absolute Torture the Whole Time with Rheumatism. . Every Joint Swollen and Angry Marvellous Cure of a Timan I Woman by Dr. Williams' £ Pink Pills. J After being crippled in bed for ' seven months, in what -she terms absolutc torture. Mrs George Bontly, of ill Hatter St.. Tiniaru. was marvolI lously cured of Rheumatism by Dr Williams' Pink Tills. "The Rheumatism came on alter a wetting I got," said Mrs Rently. It set in in my feet and knees and presently spread to every joint in my body! I began to suffer absolute torture. The joints swelled past belie)'. My ankles and knees were twice their proper size and my thumbs and lingers the same. The. pain would run from limb to limb. After two or three I months liko this I had to lay up altogether and for over seven months [ 1 was not out of my bed. 1 could not [have got out, J was absolutely liclp- ■ less and crippled. I always felt cold all over even on a summer's day. The neighbours would ask if I had not ton mam- blankets on me, but J said no, 1 could not get warm. I was parched with thirst and by the doc-tor's orders drank a>- much lemon v. atei as I could. My thumbs would go .rod and sometimes shiny. Many days 1 was so bad that I couki not feed myself, they would have to u:-;e a cup to give me . anytning. Other days perhaps .1 would make, a shift t:> use one hand, 'and another day try the. other hand., which, ever ha-p'ieu-ed to be the loss crippled at the time. My m-other-in 'law had to look after the house and 1 l had to employ a woman and sometimes a neighbour would do a kind turn. Sometimes when the pain was at its. worst I could hardly bear any weight on me in bed. I could not hold a pen to write to my ■mother in Me-l- ---} bourne. .1 was not alile to use- my 1 bicycle for two years, it was put away I for'good, but I can use it easily now. | f dreaded anyone to come near me. 1 never'thought 1 would ever get better though everything possible was ' tried. 1 would get .such kna-wing attacks in my hips and then the-y ' would liy like a shock from a galvanicbattery to 'my knees and ankles. 1 was put on low diet, but whether or J not 1 could not eat ■much or enjoy a. 1 single meal. L became as thin and • blanched as could be. Kvo.n. my lips got blanched. Before I had been I plump and fresh coloured. They put nni.st.ard poultices on and they would not even leave a mark on the skin unless they touched a part that was not affected". You could press down the swellings and leave a. red dent in the llesh. Liniments did me no good, and the veins on my hands would rise and stand out. liko whip-cord. I got so low-spiyted, suffering month after month as I did, that I would have to give way and cry, and the pain its-elf would make, me groan, with it. If it had not been for my husband and child 1 would have been glad to oive up life. We sold our c!d home and came- to this oh*> thinking the change might 'help mo but after a week or so I was just as bad as ever. One day a knock c-amo to tho door and as no one was about I. struggled along and answered it. The caller must have noticed howl looked and how crippled ■I was for he asked if it was Sciatica or Rheumatism. T told 'him and he said Or Williams' Pink Pills had cured 'him and I ought to try them, so after thinking I sent for. a box. Before it wn,s finished I was able to sit down nnd dry tho dishes and then T did a bit of ironing' still sitting and I could feel then every day the pain and stiffness lessening and passing out of me* and the swellings going down. I have not had a twinge, since I finished t'ho course. I have gained colour and llesh and can do every bit of housework however heavy. I ought to feel thankful, just two boxes did it, and I was as bad as could be when T start- ; ed." Dr Williams' Pink Pills are sold hy . J chemists and storekeepers or .sent by : 1 mail or receipt oP price, 3s per box, ; six boxes 10s 6d, by the Dr Williams' ■ Medicine 00. of Australasia, Ltd., ; Wellington.

UNTOLD AGONIES. CAUSED BY KIDNEY TROUBLES "TO TURN IN BED CAUSED INTENSE AGONY. "It was a year ago that I was first troubled with kidney disease and backache, and since then I have .suffered untold agonies," writes Mrs ! Florence Newman, 11 Elger Street, 'Glebe, N.S.W. "The pain seemed Ito be right in the small of the back land across the kidney.s, and when I Iwas compelled to stoop it seemed almost impossible for me to rise again. When I went to bed at night I was quite miserable, and found it very difficult to obtain, any sleep at all, and to turn over in bed caused me intense agony. "I heard of Dr Sheldon's Gin Pills, nndi decided at once to give them a trial. The result lug been that all my pains have entirely left me, and I" have now no indication of kidney disease in any way. I consider that I am perfectly cured." Dr Sheldon's | Gin Pills are sold everywhere at Is Gd and 2s 6d. Obtainable everywhere, i
