IN THE GRIP OF RHEUMATISM.

Joints, Swollen, Knotted, Stiff

and Painful.

This Woman Suffered Great Torture for Years. Is now Completely Cured.

Another name is added to the list of sufferers from Rheumatism who have been cured by Dr. Williams' l'ink Pills. Scores of cases have been cured by these pills, because they make now blood and tone the whole hystera, enabling it to throw off the Rheumatic poison which is in tho blood. "I blame living in a new house for my Rheumatism," said Mrs. 0. l\ Mayo, Brightwater Terrace, Terrace Knd, Palre orston N. "I began to feel flying aches and pains in-all my joints and at last they became very acute. My left anil and left leg were the parts affected. My leg swelled terribly. My husband would have to help me if I wanted to go from room to room, some days the swelling ■was worse than others. Tho leg would swell from the knee to the toes. I could not dream of wearing a boot, a large slipper was more than enough some days. The joints would go a glazed shiny red and the skin would bo burning hot. I could not eat a moal. For more than a year I lived on wine and biscuits. I fell away and wasted to a shadow. Night and day I would be in agony. Sty daughter had to look after tho house duties and do my hair and help me dress. And I would rest on the conch all day or perhaps just crawl about when f'orccd with a stick. I used embrocations and liniments when the pain was extra, severe, but only temporary relief came. My knuckles swelled largely. I could not closo my left hand. I could not think of holding anything in it. Every joint in the left leg and arm felt as if it were on tho rack. The least change in tho weather would be felt and I dare 'not touch water that was not warm, all the muscles drew up and got tight. I was simply frightened to put my foot to the ground ever so lightly. I was almost as helpless as any infant. I would not get up in tho morning till about 11 o'clock, and my husband would prop me up before he went to work and then I would makeshift presently to get out of bed, but if I had fallen I would just have had to stay where I fell till ho came home. Ono day my mother having fried a box of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Rheumatism herself brought me one. The first box encouraged men little and I sent away for six more, later on another six, and gradually the Rheumatism was driven out. I took three pills a day for a while and then doubled the dose. Slowly the stiffness and swelling went away and the feverishness c.jid pain decreased. It was a great day when I could get about without n stick, l began to eat .and put on flesh and gained in every way. In time every trace disappeared and my joints became as supple as ever they had been and have kept so. I recommend this medicine far and wide." Hi'inembcT only the genuine Dr, Williams' l'ink Pills cure. Don't be gulled into taking something said to be just as good. Of all dealers at ;ts. per box, six boxes. lGs.
