RHEUMATISM. John Kennedy, Duneain Bed-ridden for 3 Months Left the Hospital a Cripple Given Up by Specialist* Not a Pain or Ache To-day Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. “For three solid years Rheumatism had, me a eripple,” said Julia Kennedy, a retired mariner living at 05. Arthur-street,’ Dunedin. “For thirteen weeks 1 lay in the hospital, and couldn't wove hand or foot. The best doctors and specialists could du. nothing for me. As a last hope I started Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. They cured me. and I have never had an ache or a patn since. “I had my first attack at sea six years ago. when taking a cargo of wheat, from South Australia to London.” said Mr Ken* nedy. “1 had always roughed it at sea, and for a long time my blood had been in a bad state. Off Cape Dorn we ran into a terrible ice storm. The cold soaked right into my bones. The Rheumatism was la my system-—but that exposure to an arct c storm set the pains going. When every hand was needed on deck, I had to lie paralysed with pain. My hands were unless. My fingers grew- stiff, and then started to swell up. Every day I got worse. Gnawing, burning pains came in my shoulders, and spread down to my elbows. 1 screamed every time 1 went to lift my arms up. 1 got so helpless that I could not more, unless one of the men turned me. The ship’s medicine chest was stocked w’ith all the standard liniments, and my mates ruobed me till 1 was blistered. But none of these things did me the least real good. I was a cripple till we reached London. “The Loudon doctor sent me straight to the hospital, where I was treated by the greatest specialists for three mouths.” Mr Kennedy went on. “At last the head doctor told me to go back to Australia and got a shore billet, for 1 could never stand a cold climate or exposure at sea. 1 shipped for Queensland —and no tongue ran tell the unspeakable torture I went through on that voyage. When 1 left the shin 1 was a wreck. Every day the Rheumatism got a bigger hold on me. “I made my way to the Gulf country, ana got a light station Job. There I read of Dr. William’s Pink Pills. The other men said they were only ‘for pale people* -but one chap named Charlie Morley said that Dr. Williams* Pink Pills had cured his uncle of one of the worst cases of Rheumatism on record. 1 sent straight for a supply. After the first two or three boxes, 1 would have knocked them off—but Morley said that if I didn’t give them a fair chain e to cure my Rheumatism it would be my own fan;: if 1 was crippled for lire. “So I kept on. Soon the in my hands and shoulders began to ease up. Gradually my muscles lost their stiffness, and I could move my Joints with case. My general health improved in fifty ways. My rase was so stubborn that it took Dr. Williams’ Pink Pilis a few months t<* cure me—but in the end they did twenty times more for me than the best hospital doctors of London could do. When I started them I was a cripple—when I left them off 1 was a strong active man. Since then I have never had the slightest sign of Klienma Lisin. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills cured me for good.” Nothing else could possibly cure John -Kennedy, because* nothing else could dr vc the Rheumatism poison out of his veins.
