CAUSE AND CURE OF SCIATICA. A. Man who Suffered Much Tells how He was Cured. Because Sciatica is a disease of the Sciatic nerve, it lias been- found that tho best treatment is one that tends to p-ut the whole nervous system' in ft strong healthy condition. Blisters and injections are sometimes used to case tho_ sharp, shooting, lightning pains in the (hips and legs, but this treatment 'is not regarded in any sense as a cure. A cure can only bo obtained by looking to the causo of the complaint and restoring the nerv*s to their proper state of tone. In addition to the tonic treatment, resting the limbs in bed or on a couch us much as possible helps in a cure. Mr. Joseph Jvaylor, of Market Street, Mount Gambler, S.A., vho had a very severe attack, declares that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured him. This is becausu they arc & blood builder and nerve tonio, the new blood they make, nourishing the irritated inflamed nerve, thiis completely removing the causo of tho complaint and making a permanent cure. "About four years ago Sciatica camo on," said Mr. Naylor, "The pain started in the left hip, and spread down to my anklo. I thought it would wear off, but it didn't; it only got worse, and for four months I had it continually. The pain was dreadM. I could not wa k properly; it was juat hobbling and slowly at tilmf. I would often lie awake for hours before sleep would come. In the mornings I felt so stilt' that I could hardly »et out of bed. The pain was always lowing. If I went to sit dov.n or gel out of the chair, I would feel the pain go right through me like a knife thrust, ami I could not bend my back or stoop to pirtt up anything without suffering acutelv. I stuck to rnv work, but I don't know however I did' it. 'Acting,oll o tnends advice, I tried Dr. William?' Pink Pills. My friend had been bad with it for six vwrs, and lie told me that-Dr, Williams Pink Pills had wifed him, and he advised me to keep oh with them. In a littlowhiio the pains vrtre not so severe. I doubled tli,o dose, taking six pills eacii day, Mid slowlv the pain and stiffness left my leg and hip. It. took ten boxes to cure me, but, they did it thoroughly, for tho troublo tins never returned, and my leg is as supple now as I could wish.". Remember only tho genuine Dr. Williams' Pink, Pills cure. Don't, be gulled into takini: something said to be just ns good. Of "all dealers at. 3s. per box. six box&s 16s, M,, or from th« Dr. Willimf Medicine Co., of Australasia, Ltd., "elijngtoa, _ . .
