BID FOR TIE Si. 0 Rubbing on Greasy Ointments, How to Properly Treat , Skin Troubles. ® It is not a good thing for people with & tendency to have pimples and a blotchy complexion to smear themselves with greasy ointments and such things. In fact,o they couldn't do anything worse, because the grease only clogs the poras of tho skin, making the complaint worse. When there is an irritating'rash a soothing boracic wash may help to allay the pain or itching, but of courso it doesn't cure. Skin complaints arise from an im-' puro condition of tho blood, and will persist' until the blood is purified. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills have cured many cases of eczema and skin disorder becaust, they make rich, new blood that drives out the impurities, and imp-/ts a glow ot health. Mr. T. Manning, .now Windsor Road, Avondalc, Auckland, tells how these pills cured him of a terrible attack of eczema. "I noticed the eczema appearing very gradually round my finger tips at first, and in "time it spread to tho palm of mv hands, and to the soles of my feet," said Mr. Manning. "I didn't worry much' at first, but it gradually grow worse and wouldn't disappear in spito of all the ointments I tried. There were no blisters or watery discharges, but the skin became thick and hard and cracked all over and as to the itching it would fairly drive me mad. Tho parts tingled so that I could hardly keep from, rubbing thorn till tho skin was sore and tender like a piece of raw beef. I used to have poultices on mv hands and feet for three days at a time, but they did no good. The finger nails were all bent out of shape, and the-surfaco skin was dead and white, it peeled off in large patches and flakes. My fingers were so numb I had great difficulty' in picking up any small articlo At times I couldn't put my boots on, or walk about, unless the feet were thickly bandaged. The skin on the wrists would come off 1 in a dry white powder when scratched. As ointments did 110 good I decided the complaint must lie ill tho blood, so I started Dr. Williams' Pink Pills at the rate of three pill" a dav. Presently X doubled the dnse, but it was not till I was taking nine pills a day that I noticed any change. Then I found the irritation gettin" less severe. I began to- feel bettor in my general health, '100, and the skiu didn't crack so easily, and bit by bit became healthy. I kept on with the pills, and the numbed feeling wore off, and tho skin got less thick and hard till in tinis everv svmptoni wore av.'ay." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills arc 3s. a box, G boxes lGs.
