Stiff, Swollen Joints. « Rheumatism Wonderfully Cured. , Below is further proof that Rheumatism in it’s severest form has been cured by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills. Rubbing fails because the cause of the complaint—acid—is in the blood, and liniments do not reach the cause. Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills succeed because they are a blood making and purifying medicine. This New Zealand woman was so crippled that she could not use a leg or an arm, and had to be lifted in and out of bed. Mrs. E. J. Martin, who lives in Moleswcrth St., New Plymouth, New Zealand says; “ When I was between 16 and 1 7 years I got a severe wetting at Fielding where I was living. In a few days I found pains attacking me in various parts of the body. The joints of my hands, arms, and legs became stiff and swollen. I could feel a sort of creaking cracking noise in my joints with the least attempt at moving them. The pain always increased at night, and more especially if the weather was any way damp. The joints of my body became so tender, I could nor bear anything to touch them. If anything touched my joints, however lightly,, I would cry out with the pain. The pain used to cramp me up so that I became utterly useless. I was in a position at the time. My parents were sent for and they had to carry me out of bed and lift me into a vehicle to convey me home, and had to lift me out of the vehicle on my arrival home and carry me to bed. I could not use a leg, arm or hand, if it would save my life. My father went for a doctor who on seeing me, said I was in a very bad state with Rheumatism. He gave me some medicine which I took for some months, but it did not ease the pain. Mother saw an account of a cure by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills of a similar case to mine and she bought three boxes. I started taking them, and I found they were doing me good. I continued their use till I had taken about sixteen boxes when I felt thoroughly restored to good health.” Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills axe excellent in Anaemia, Indigestion, and nervous complaints like Sciatica and Neuralgia. Price 3s. per box, six boxes 16s. 6d of all medicine dealers or direct from The Dr. Williams’ Medicine Co., of Australasia Ltd.,Wellington.
