CAUSE AND CURE OF SCIATICA. — 4 Dunedin Man Who Suffered from an Acute Attack Tells How he Was Cured, Because Sciatica is a disease of the sciatic nerve, it has been found that the best treatment is one that tends to put the whole nervous system in a strong healthy condition. Blisteis and injections are sometimes used to ease the sharp, shooting, lightning pains in the hips and lege, but this treatment is not regarded in any, sense as a cure. A cure can only be obtained by looking to the cause of the complaint and restoring the nerves to their proper state of tone. In addition to the tonic treatment, resting the limbs in bed or on a couch as much as possible helps in a cure. Mr. James Curran*. 49 Church-street, Kaikorai Valley, Roslyn, Dunedin, had a bad attack bf Sciatica, and declares that Dr. Williams Pink Pills cured him, and nothing else. “About ten years since I was working on the Government Railways. The work was very severe, Idading and shifting ballast. One day a bad pain caught me in the right lifpt' For some time the pattn‘.was so bad I <?Buld do no work,’ and when 1 did try I haii H to sit down and rest till the pain would ease a little. I had to work as 1 had a family to keep. The pain used to ease off for a little while when I would sit down or stand up, but became bad again as soon as I would stoop to work. My joints became very stiff and I used to have to catch hold of something to get up when I had been sitting down, the pain was so bad. The pain was always worse‘when I was moving about.' When I was id bed I used to have to lie on my right side; and if I tried to turn in bed I could not do I suffered agony, and consulted a doctor, who prescribed lotions for me and medicines to drink, but did not de me any good.” I was under his care for about five or six years and spent ‘a lot of money without deriving any benefit. Eventually I ’ concluded, as the doctor was doing me no gdod, I would try Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills; as I heard and read a good deal about them. I had lost my appetite. In about five or six weeks after using Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills I found my appetite returning and the pains decreasing. I took about forty boxes altogether and completely lost all pain, and though I am now 84 years of age I am abje to walk about without any assistance except a walking stick and I think I am looking very fresh for my age. I cannot speak too highly of Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills.” Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills are 3/ per box, six boxes 16/6, of all medicine dealers, or from the Dr. Williams’ Medicine Co. of Australasia, Ltd., Wellington.
