SUPERSTITIONS ABOUT RHEUMATISM « Magic Rings and other Foolish Treatments —Only one Way to Cure the Complaint as this Woman found out. People have Kheu_—t_—i when their blood becomes tainted with lactic acid. Rheumatism will persist and. cause aching, nagging pains and swollen joints until the acid ia expelled from the -system. -bo wearing of mogic rings is an ancient superstition, and —uch a practice never helped anyone. "Rubbing the affected parts -Kith a hot liniment is waste of time, for rubbing docs nothing to drive the cause from the system. The correct treatment is to take a blood maker and tonic like Dr. "Williams" Pink Pills, which tones the system to » point that enables it to expel the rheumatic poison through tbe natural channels of the body. New Zealand people are.taking these pills every day for this complaint, and —re obtaining benefit. As Mrs Chas. List, of Kalgooriie, Bays:— "Dr. "Williams' Pink Pills drove the • Rheumatism entirely out of my system. "I was attacked in both hips," —lid Mrs List, who lives in Bourke street, near Castle street. "I -suffered greatly for about a year. Sometimes at night I couldn't close my eyes on account of the pain. . I couldn't turn in bed without graepiiig tho head oi the bed. In the day time I dreaded to move. In time my knees were also attacked, and when I tried to go for a little walk I would limp badly. The joints became very stiff; my general health became bad and I grew very thin. I had no desire to eat and lost- all colour. At I apt I was persuaded to try a course of Dr. Williams' Pills and in time they drove the Rheumatism entirely out of my system, and also strengthened mc in every way. I began to eat better and ■ all the stiffness and aches went out of the joints. I have not had a trace since. My mother a.so found this medicine most useful for the same complaint." There are shops in every town whero Dr. William_■ Pink Pills ore sold without quos-ti-in. Get yours there and avoid tho substitute pushera; 8a per box, six boxes 16a ed everywhere or from the Dr. Williams Medicine Co. of Austral—sia, Ltd., Wellington. 2
