CORRECT TREATMENT FOR SCIATICA
Sciatica is a nervous disorder just like neuralgia. In fact it is often referred to as neuralgia of the sciatic nerve. A well-known medical' writer has said it is the cry of tho nerves for food. The complaint indicates that the nerves are i\'eak and run down, or lack tone, as the medical man puts it. . Sometimes a blow or. injury to the leg sets the trouble going. The affected leg should havo as much rest as possible. If the patient can keep to bed or a coucli so much the better. The correct treatment goes a step beyond the relief of tho symptoms, and cures the cause. Dr. .Williams' Pink Pills should be given to build up the blood, as it is from the blood the nerves get the "food" the medical writer says they are crying for. Thin blood causes nerves to become weak; building up tho blood restores nerve force. Under Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, improvement is usually noticed in a short time, and tho treatment should be continued until all traces of the complaint have disappeared. You can get Dr. Williams' Pink Pills at your nearest chemist. A post-card request to the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Wellington, will bring a useful booklet, "Diseases of tho Nervous System."
