SCIATICA IS 1 HERVQUS DISEASE

Nerves Must be Restord to a State of Tone.

This Man Crippled and Unable to Work for Weeks—Cured by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills.

If you have Sciatica or Neuralgia, you ought to know that the complaints are nervous diseases that can only be cured by restoring the affected nerves to a proper state of tone. Sciatica and NeujuSagla are very similar except that the pains in one case are in the face; in the other, in the 'thigh. As the nerves get all their nourishment through the blood, a blood making tonic, like Dr. Williams Fink Pills, is the correct treatment.

Mr. Edward West, corner of Smythe and McKellar Streets, Benalia, Victoria, was crippled so badly by Sciatica that he was unable to work for weeks. He was finally cured by Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills, and he gave the following account of his illness and cure to a reporter:— >

“I was droving and sleeping out, and the exposure at last told on me,’’ said Mr. West. “A pain gradually came in the right hip. it grew worse and worse till at last I was in agony. For weeks I hid to give up work. Then the complaini. might lull a trifle, but the least change of weather laid me up agaiu. Au the right leg from the hip to the ankle was affected. I was rubbed with weak turps of had flannels sprinkled with it put on. I had the leg blistered from hip to calf, and the skin was painted with iodine, but nothing gave me lasting relief. The Jog was so bad that I could barely feel tlie hot flannels. Many 1 time I could not get Su or out of bed by myself, ami when there I would He quite unable to move And racked with pain. It was impossible for me to close my eyes till the paroxysms eased a little. Knife-like thrusts would dart through the leg. I dreaded nightfall, as. I always felt worse. The leg left stiff and I could not put the full weight of the body on It. I often had to knock off work, and perhaps then I would be unable to go put for weeks. One doctor injected morphia into the calf to try and ease Die. After reading a little pamphlet through, I was so convinced that Dr. Williams’ Pink Pil s would do me good that I told my son to go and buy me a couple of boxes for a trial. I was in bed at the time, laid up. The two boxes acted wonderfully. By the time the fourth box was through I felt fit for anything. I went back to work a cured man, ami I’ve kept free from Sciatica ever since.” When you ask for Dr. Williams’ Pink Pills don’t be put off with anything else. They are 3/ a box: six boxes lfl/0, and 1; necessary will be sent post paid, on re eeipt of price, by the Dr. Williams’ Medl cine Co. of Australasia, Ltd., Wellington.
