THE TERRORS OF RHEUMATISM

OVERCOME BY DR. WILLIAMS’ PINK PILLS FOR PALE PEOPLE. AFTER HOSPITAL TREATMENT AND MEDICAL MEN HAD FAILED. Mrs Knibb, of Earle-street, Toowong. is the wife of au industrious resident of that place. She had, until quite recently, been a great sufferer from rheumatism. Mrs Knibb is well advanced in years, and an account of her complete cure by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People should prove good news to those sufferers who erroneously fancy rheumatism and other kindred ills the natural accompaniment of old age, and therefore incurable. The agonies of rheumatism are well known, and so now is the fact that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a cure for it. Those terrible pains in joints and muscles, which are aggravated by the slightest change in the weather, most clearly denote the presence of rheumatism, which may later on develop into rheumatic fever. ’Dear me.’ said Mrs Knibb to our reporter, ‘I have been a great sufferer from rheumatism. Twelve years agoI had a bad accident; my thigh bone was broken, and since that time I have suffered a great deal. I lost the sight of my left eye mainly through the disease, and even after treatment of it was over I suffered from great pain across the bone over the eye. Last Christmas twelve months I was so bad that I could scarcely move in bed. I had to go to the hospital after being treated for a long time by the doctors; but after coming out again I suffered just the same. If I did a little washing in the day time I could hardly turn in bed at night, and during westerly winds I was always laid up. A little while ago I read of the cures, effected by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, but I was doubtful about them. One of my family, however, said that the cases reported must be genuine, or the people would not dare to print them, and so I bought a box of the pills and took one after each meal. That gave me some relief, but I still suffered, and I was told to take two pills after each meal. I did that, and the effect has been wonderful. 1 have got rid of the rheumatism, and the pain over my eye has gone. During the recent westerly winds I was up and about and suffered no ill effects.’ «• ‘You attribute that to Dr. Williams’’ Pink Pills?’ the interviewer asked. ‘Yes, indeed,’ said Mrs Knibb. ‘I do. and to nothing else. If it were not for them I should not be standing out here talking to you now.’ Mr Knibb arrived on the scene at this, stage, and confirmed all that his wife had said, and added that recently he had experienced his first attack of rheumatism and suffered a great deal, but after a few doses of Dr. Williams” Pink Pills he was able to go to work again. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills for Pale People are not a jiatent medicine, but are a thoroughly scientific preparation, the result of years of careful study on the part of an eminent Edinburgh University physician, and they were successfully used by him in his every day practice for years before being offered for general sale. They positively cure rheumatism, sciatica, lumbago, neuralgia, and influenza’s evil after-effects, and are a specific for all diseases of women, such as anaemia, poor and watery blood, female irregularities. nervous headache, and hysteria. They are not a purgative medicine, but brace up and permanently strengthen the whole system. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are obtainable from all leading chemists, or from the Dr. Williams’ Medicine Company, Wellington, N.Z., who will forward, post paid, on receipt of stamps or post order, one box for 3s, or half a dozen for 15s 9d.
