Aching Burning Rheumatism.
There is a Way to Cure the Complaint. This AVoman had Rheumatism Badly but was Cured After Suffering for Years. A remarkable instance of the value of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills in Rheumatism is shown in the case of Mrs. Betsy Crisp, Manukau Road, Parnell, Auckland, who says:—"l suffered acutely from three severe attacks of Rheumatic Fever, and was left with Rheumatism in my system for years. It started first in the hips and spread to every joint. My arms got affected in the muscles, and three years ago I couldn't close my hands. I had to have flannel always next to my skin and slep on blankets and even had flannel pillows. The least chill would bring on an attack, even clipping my hands in cold water. Often at night I couldn't close my eyes for hours with the pain, and in the morning it | took about an hour for me to get ut of bed. Sometimes I had to raise myselfin bed with a rope tied to the end. My knuckles would get so red and sore and swollen that my hands were useless. My knees would go stiff so that I could not bend them, and^ my arms the same: I couldn't raise them to do my hair; I used to cry with the pain that seemed to set each joint and muscle on fire. I tried all sorts of liniments and embrocations; they eased me at the moment, but the rheumatism was in the blood itself and I knew that it couldn't be reached that way. Some nights I dare not move in bed to ease one joint for fear I'd get it in another. At times I couldn't get my boots on. Then I read about Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and I tried them about two years ago. They began to ease me from the first. I kept on with them and found my joints getting much more supple. The attacks did not comJT'On so often, and passed away more quickly. With every box I felt'more at ease and had less pain till at last I was able to leave them off. Now my health is excellent."
