WARNING TO CAMPERS.
The experiences of Mr Charles Rainey, of Dickens Street, Napier, whilst camping, .should act as,a warning both to those whose employment necessitates exposure, and to holiday makers wdio go under canvas as a form of recreation. ‘ The experiences of which I am about to speak,’ said he, • befel me through
camping for some time in a tent at Hawke’s Bay. I often got soaked to the skin during a spell of very wet weather and took ins u ffi c i e nt care to guard against the res ull s.
First, pains like red hot needles being drawn through the flesh, started in my legs, and the muscles grew so stiff as to be painful on moving. At night the agony often kept me awake for hour?. Doctors treated me for sciatica and rheumatic gout. They prescribed lotions and bound up one of my legs, but I only received temporary relief.’ ‘ What further efforts did you make towards recovery ?’ ‘ I tried everything that I could think of, hut tile diseases would not move. At last I read a notice in the uew-paper showing that Dr. Willi uns’ pink pills for pale people had proved of value in eases of sciatica and rheumatic gout. I began taking them, and after three weeks’ treatment the naius certainly lessened. Thus encouraged I continued with them until I had taken twelve boxes. lam so satisfied with t lie result that I publicly acknowledge the merit of these pills, and shall a ways recommend them. As I am sixty-two years of age, and suffered for Unity years, you can understand my gratitude.’ Sciatica is really a nerve disorder, whilst vifated blood induces rheumatic gout. As Dr. Williams’pink pills area blood-builder and nerve-tonic, they cure disorders caused by vitiated blood nr unstrung nerves, such as rheumuti-m. neuralgia, at m ica, del ility, Sr. Vitus’ Dance, erysipelas, sciofnla, blood poisoning, open sous, lots of strength in men, paralysis, eonsump:ion. bronchitis, etc. From chennVs and sto. i keepers and the Dr. Williams’ Medicine (Jo., Wellington, three shillings a I ox, six boxes sixteen and six, post free. Desciibo your ease and write f r special information.
