A TRAVELLED SWEDE.
A talk which our reporter had with Mr. Charles Paulsen at his residence. Main-street, Dannevirke, says a local paper, proved very interesting. “I came from Sweden twenty-two years ago,” said Mr Paulsen, when questioned regarding his life, “and I travelled over many parts of Australia. I worked at a number of diggings, and got plenty of colonial experience. Then I came to New Zealand. Notwithstanding the hardships I w-as always robust till two years ago, when sciatica attacked me. Shooting, burning pains came in my hips, joints and
ankles. Then nay arms ached with rheumatism. I became very ill and depressed, and was laid up for three months. A doctor attended me daily for a month, but I received no benefit, and patent medicines and embrocations proved useless. The only way I obtained relief (and that was merely temporary) was by sitting wrapped up in blankets before a blazing fire. Noticing Dr. Williams’ pink pills advertised I commenced them. Three boxes improved me wonderfully. The pains were less severe, I was able to lift my arm over my head, and could get about. I continued Dr. Williams’ pink pills until every trace of rheumatism and sciatica lad disappeared. I am now in perfect health. My age is 50. Mrs ■Paulsen has also benefited by Dr. Williams pink pills, and we both have pleasure in recommending them.”
The ailment known as sciatica is due to nerve disorder or nerve injury. Dr. Williams’ pink pills, being a nerve tonic, tone up and rebuild the wasted nerve .tissue. When the nerves are healthy, sciatica and such ailments cannot exist. By tueir .-tonic action on the biood and nerves Dr 'Williams pink pills have cured many cases of rheumatism, bronchitis, debility, ladies’ ailments, locomotor ataxia, St. Vitus’ dance, etc. Sold by the Dr. Williams Medicine Company, Wellington, three shillings per box, six boxes sixteen and six, post free, and by all chemists and storekeepers. But mind you ask for Dr. Williams’: Write us for copies of cases similar to your own.
