"It's some while bark since I was firs\ attacked with Rheumatism," said Mr( Emily Middlemiss, Duihnin road. Inglewood. "The pains caiae on suddenly, and I won-deicd what wa-s virontr i\ it h me. Gradually I got worse, and first thing in the morning mv bands would feel quits stiff, and for a while I would not be able to -do anything until they got warmed up. The backs of my hands aTid up my arms swelled a lot. The pains in mv bhoulderg often stopped me from milking, as I could not lift the buoker. Pretty well all day I had a dull aching in mv fchouldei — it was always worse after washing. I couVl always tell when it was tromtf to rain — the paina were always sharper. Often I Had to geC the girls to "brush mv hair— l could not lift mv hand to my head. " Jlv appetite fell off. and this made m« pretty weak. 1 became quite inn <lown. I used to go about the hoiv^e in a listless sort of way. and did not care if I did anything or not. Sometimes I thought that I would never get better. I would have gi\en anything to be free of the terrible aching pain, oven for a few days I "was \<?ry bad with the Rheumatism while wo were liiing at South Canterbury, but it gob worse after we came up North. As a last hope I started Dr Williams' Pink Pills. I must have taken them for nearly three months before I felt any benefit, and then they began to do their work. I could eat" better, and I could do mv milking much easier. The awful nchinjr pains r]jd noli oat oh me so badly in the arm« and "houldcre. As I kept on I could feel myself getting "better every day. The pains were pelting less and less, and every do^e was putting; new life into me. For the pa*t twclvq months I have not had a sign of Rheumatism." It mu i -t be ' irne in mind that while cold and damp aggravate rheumatism and sciatica the cause is uric acid in the blood 1 . Dr Williams' Pink Pills drive out tho aoid. and as the cause is lenuned, tha complaint doe* not return, even wherf the patient is exposed to further cold , and damp. I Br Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People ha\e cured Rheumatism, because they go right to the ROOT of the trouble in tha blood. Bad blood is the cause of all common diseases like anaemia (bloodlcssnes=;)| eczema, palenes«, headaches, neuralgia^ sciatica. ihornnati«m. lumbago, backache, kidney complaint, liver trouble, biliousness, indigestion, general weakness, etc. Bad blooq is tho one cause — and Dr Williams' Pinli Pills aro the one cure, because they actually make new blood. They do ius< that one thing, but fhev do it well. But, of courop. yon must get the genuine D* Williams" Pink Pills for Pale People— Za a bo\-. six boxes 16s 6d, from chemists and storekeepers, or sent, post free, by the^ Dp Williams Medioine Co., Wellington. Writ* for hint* a.~ to diet. etc. When Georjre Thorncroft. aged 65. wa* dri\ ing along Trafalgar street. Petersham--Sydney, his horse swerved, the sulky col* liding with a lamp-post.
