Something Needed to Cleat 1 the Complaint from the System* A. Sufferer Who Has Tried Thi3 Method Relates his Experience.
Experience in treating Rheuma--ism has Made it plain that not much is to be gained by rubbing the affected parts with liniments or by using hot application. The seat of the trouble is i ot to be reached in this way. 1 here is still difference of opinion among medical men as tc the actual cause o< rheumatism, but such good results in Australasia have followed treatment with Dr. Wi'.'iaii.s' Pink Pills, that any sufferer with rheum itism may feel confident in trying tlem. The principle of tßeatmeht with this rem edy is that they tone up the system to a point that enables it to throw off the rheumatic poison in the blood, through the ordinary channels of the body. Further, rheumatic sufferers have found that these 'pills permanently cure them. The complaint does not return, so long as they keep themselves in a reasonably good state of general health. The experience of Mr Richard Griffiths, a Melbourne bricklayer, residing at 31 Herbert St., Albert Park, should be of interest to any rheumatic sufferer. The following are his own words: — "Through exposure at my work at the building trade I contracted rheumatism, for I couldn't always be putting my jacket on for every shower. Twinges began to trouble me off and on in all my limbs. My thighs were the first attacked; then my calves, and arms and shoulders. The attacks would come on quite suddenly, and almost take my legs from finder me. First I would feel them in one part.and then in another. The joints would go quite stiff and creaky. Some days I could hardly put on my clothes, or lift my arms above my head, and at work it might be just the same. I could often not lift my arms to do work that was above my head. The pains would be agonising. Such darting twinges would go through each muscle. At times I could not grip anything firmly. My fingers would be, so stiff that I could not open or close my hands freely. Many n_ night I would lie awake for hours, just afraid to turn, for I always felt worse as soon as I got warm, and pains would settle in the shin bones like strokes from a. pinning iron. I used to try all kinds of liniments, but tho rubbing would only send the pain away for a. time. Any extreme of weather would start tho pains. T dreaded any change in tho weather. I could not stand any one coming near me at times for fear of touching the limbs, they would feel ■so soro and tender. Tt. was painful to sit down, and hard to p-t up from a chair, I would be so stiff. T would burst into a perspiration some days with the rain. My appetite fell away and I felt generally run down too, but»a course of Dr. "Williams' Fink Pills took away all these troubles. The freedom began to come back to my limbs, and the stiffness gradually went out of my muscles. I have nor had one'trace of it sinc<?." The prise is 3s per box, «x boxes' iGvS 6d, and if you have trouble in getting them .send a. postal note for tho amount to the Dr. Williams' Me.dieino Co. of Australasia;' Ltd., Wellington, and they will bo sent post free by return mail.
