Wa»kins, residing at Stratford, came to the colony 15 years ago, and having had the worry and anxiety of personal^ conducting a 8 ore for many yeara, can speak of a etorekeepers life. •«For many years," said MrWatkms to the reporter who called upon {vide the Wanganui Herald), "continuous wet wetflher and the worries of business first weakened my constitution. I Buffered greatly from acute rheumatism and sciatica. The muscles of my army contracted and ached night and day. The sharp shooting nains of sciatica in my legs gave me no respite, and I often thus lost a night's al«ep I w»8 laid up for four monthß at a t : me, and could not obtain a remedy. I read how Dr Williams' pink pills had cured a case like mine so I tried them. The first box brough some relief, and I continued them. La'er on shooting sciatica pains subsided and the muscles of my armg became flexible. By further use of Dr Williams' pink pils I was complete'y cured and was much s ronger than I bad been for several years. Since then I have given up storekeepinfc, and am now a public accountants I shall be happy to answer enquiries about my care. 1 A debilitated system and impoverished blood induce rheumatisn. Wh-n wot or cold weather comes, the pa us begin. In gevere cases such as Mr Watk.ns, sciatica may follow the rheumatism. Dr Williams pink pills enrich the blood, build up the system, and thin remove rneumatum, sciatica, and other diseases such as anwmia, debility, dyspepsia, biliousness, skin troubes. etc. By their tonic action on the nerves they a'so cure St Vitus' dance, paralysis, locomotor ataxia. nervous disorders, etc. So d by the Dr Wiliamg' Medicine Co., Wellington 1 , and by chemists and storekeepers, three shillings per box, cix b«eß iixteen and six, post free.
