ACUTE SCIATICA EVERY YEAR. . - 9 •Crippled in Bed in Helpless : Torture. : Neighbours had to do Everything i for hira. * A Marvellous Cure by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. To euro Sciatica and its torturing shooting pains, treatment to restore thn nerves to their proper slate of tone is ■ required. Medical men all agree that ■ Sciatica is n nervous disorder. It ■ may ; bo caused by an injury nr blow to. tho • Sciatic nerve, but often occurs in a ruu- ; down nervous condition. There arc' on > record a great many cures of Sciatica by . Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. They are ;i blood-makm* medicine, and direct nerve i tonic, and the record of cures of Sciatica . is s-o lengthy (hat their value in this coui- . plaint is certain. : After suffering severe attacks of Sciatica annually for many years, Mr. F. Sy'lvei, Haliaui Street, Tennyson, Port Pirie, S.A., found that rubbing liniments and outward ■treatment gave him practically no relief. Mr. Sylvca was finally cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Ho made the following statement to a reporter:— "I was always getting wet when in my boat out fishing, .and Sciatica came on mo gradually, and 1 b?ean lo suffer acutely, mill for tour years it was in my system. From September to January in every year it was never, absent,, and I would often gel twinges oi ii in other months. I was taken so bad once on stepping ashore about 4 a.m.. I actually had to crawl home on my hands and knees. I was proctic;.U.v in bed then, for four months, and had to he looked after by my males. Occasionally 1 would dress niy.-eif, and it would lalio me nearly an hour to put on my clothes, and hobhlo will) a stick to the door to sit in the sun. These yearly attack-, would go away in the January, and I would get back to work, but only to be laid up in bed tho sanio way next September. At times J. could not get out of my bed to go as far as tho kitchen. I war. ?evcn' week's in the hospital here, but got no relief. f crawled home, and had 11 sit down quito n dozen times on the read. The left leg was affected from tho hip to the ankle. 1 would feel every nerve and muscle on fire, and pains would dart up and dawn like lightning, or shocks from a battery. At night 1 might be reading in bed, and with the slightest movement the attack would come on. and there would bo no more re-l tor me that night. Perhaps when I did tall off to sleep, if 1 happened to move, the pain would start, and wako me up for certain. Often when I would try to get out of bed in the morning on attack would come on, and I would fall ilat. 1 never dared lo put my font to the ground with any weight, on it. I always' had to hobble with the nid of a slick. I tried all sorts of liniments and quantities of cajaput oil, hut got no relief. In tho hospital my hip was blistered and poulticed, but no benefit came. Tho leg' got shorter and more shrunken than the oilier, and I never dared stretch it out straight. I would think something wci gnawing at my flesh. Foe-a long time I could not bear even the weight of the lx*l clothes on my foot. 1 went, off In flesh and appetite. I was'as WTotehed as any man could bo. Occasionally I went out ami just pointed the best grounds; ■• but I never did any. work'.. My. mates and neighbours all know what I have been through. One i]ay . a.neighbour camo round and read mo an account, of a ship's mate being cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Piils, and the case was so like mine that I sent for a. couple of boxes. I actually found some'relief from them, so I gladly sent for some more. J. noticed the pains decreasing, and all the stiffness and slabbing getting decidedly less, I could hardly credit it; it peemed too good to lx> true, but it is an übsohifa fact that five boxes .drove out every p r ,in and ache. I was afraid that noxt year it would return as usual; but not once has it put in an appearance." Tho price is ;is, per box, six boxes ife.
