CAUSE AND CURE OF NEURALGIA.

NERVE PAIN MEANS NERVE

STARVATION

HOW MODERN METHODS SUCCEED IN CURING THE CAUSE OF THE DISEASE INSTEAD OF TREATING THE SYMPTOMS.

Neuralgia meaus simply "nerve pain," so there may be great variation in the character and intensity of the pain and auy nerve in the body may be affected. There are a number of causes of neuralgia but the most common is a geueral run-down couditiou of the physical system. The discovery of this fact from reliable statistics led to the new treatment for neuralgia which builds up the geueral health by the tonic treatment aud so disposes of the cause of the trouble.

Persons reduced by acute sickness, or by severe mental or physical strain or by loss of sleep are frequently victims of neuralgia aud it is common in the case of those suffering from auaomia, or bloodlessness. This brings us very close to the acutal cause of neuralgia which is nerve starvation. The blood, which in normal health carries to the nerves all of their nourishment, is unable to perform this duty satisfactorily when it is weak aud impure. Build up tho blood then, aud the neuralgic pains will disappear as the nerves become better nourished. The tonic treatmeut with Dr Williams' Pink Pills, a blood-making tonic, meets this couditiou most admirably as the cure of Mrs Alexander Morris, Lake View and Boulder Leases, Golden Gate, shows.

"Owing to the trying weather on the Fields I got rather run down. I became subject to attacks of neuralgia, up both sides of my faco and through my temples. It always came ou at the same hour of the day. aud often lasted for three days at a time. My face would ache distressingly with it. My appetite weut right away, I couldn't bear the sight of food. I got very thin aud everyoue said how ill I looked, for I had no colour in my face, only a sallow look and a weary expression. I'd get up each moruiug feeling so thoroughly tired out that I dreaded to get up and I'd be drowsy aud heavy while my limbs seemed too weak to hold me. My feet and hands were generally cold and clammy. I'd have to lie about all the time. I had no energy or wish to do anything. Three boxes of Dr Williams' Pink Pills brought back my strength. I kept on with them when I found that the first box did me so much good. I found I could eat better and the weariness began to go. Before I had finished the second box the neuralgic attacks got less and I had a better colour. Now my health is very good."
