ACHING, BURNING RHEUMATISM.

THERE IS A WAY TO CURE THE COM

THIS WOMAN HAD RHEUMATISM BADLY, BUT WAS Cl RED AFTER SITFEKIN'G FOR YEARS. A remarkable Instance of the value of Dr. Williams- Pink Pills in Rheumatism is shown in the vase of Mrs Betsy Crisp. Mannkau-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 la have flannel always next to my skin and slept on blankets and even had flannel pillows. The least chill would bring on an attack, even dipping my hands in cold water. Often at night 1 couldn’t close my eyes for hours with the pain, mid in the morning it took about an hour for- me to get out of bed. Sometimes I had to raise myself in 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; 1 used to cry with the pain that seemed to get each joint and muscle on fire. I tried all sorts of liniments and embrocations; they eased me at tlie moment, but the rheumatism 1 was in the Mood itself and I knew that-it couldn't be reached that way. Some nights I dare mu 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' Pinkrills, and tried them about two years ago. They began to ease me from the first. I kept on with them, ami fouhd my joints getting much more supple. The attacks did not come 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.”
