NEURALGIA AND POOR BLOOD:

There aro very few cases of neuralgia that are not caused by a thin run down condition of the blood. Almost the first thing the doctor looks for in neuralgic patients is the ansemic Appearance. There aro two things to do for any form of neuralgia. Apply heat to the affected/ part ; to soothe the pain, and feed tiie nerves by taking a tonic containing the elements needed by them. Heat as afforded by hot flannel, hot water bags, etc., lulls the inflamed nerves into temporary quiet. ■ It does not cure. Not until the nutrition of the nerves is restored will the inflammation subside and the neuralgic state be remedied. Never under any .circumstances should drugs to deaden the pain be used. Dr. Williams's Pink Pills furnish tothe blood the needed elements and tho blood conveys them to tho nerves. The only way of getting food or medicine to the nerves is through the blood. Remember that. Neuralgia is a general term. It means inflammation of a nerve. It is given different names according to the nerve affected. Sciatica js neuralgia of the sciatic nerve. Applications of heat will soothe the pain in all forms of neuralgia and Dr. Williams's Pink Pills will correct the condition that causes it. -. If you havo neuralgia you-can send to your dealer at onco tor a box of Dr. Williams's Pink Pills. A useful booklet on "Diseases of the Nervous system" will be/sent free to any address by the Dr. Williams's Medicine Co. Box 845, G.P.p., Wellington.
