RHEUMATIC WRECK, 30 Years a Sufferer. Worn out With Pain. An Incurable Cripple Cured. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. "For fully thirty years, I was never a day free from Rheumatism," said Mrs. Jacob MattheAvs, Queen street. Masterton. "I suffered the greatest pain a woman could bear. For months I never left my bed. I lay on my back suffering untold torture. The cleverest doctors in the town could do me no good. They said my Rheumatism was in the blood. I was a crippled wreck till Dr. Williams' Pink Pills set mo on my feet, strong and well'again. "Never to my dying day shall I-.-for-get whalti I went through. Often I shrieked with agony. I was wrapped io flannels and blankets—and even the touch of these almost sent me mad. At night the sweat rolled off me until I thought I would die with sheer weakness. My joints were so stiff that I cculd not bend my elbows or knees. I could not turn in-bed to save my life. I was the most miserable woman on God's earth. "The pain I suffered was enough to kill twenty people. It was no wonder my nerves broke down. The least noise irritated me. Even the shut/ting of the bedroom door jarred me. Every day I wished myself dead. I was a burden to myself and a terrible expanse to my husband. The best treatment did me no good. "For months I lived on nothing but milk and sloppy food. And at last I turned 'against these. My skin was dry and hard—l didn't seem to have any blood in my veins at all. I felt as if all my bones were broken and my flesh battered and bruised. Words cannot describe whait I endured. "So it's no wonder my cure is the talk of Masterton. For over fifty years I have been in the district, and everyone here knows how bad 1 was—how I lay in ceaseless agony day and night. Indeed, when I look back now, I wonder how I lived through it all. I had given up all hope," Mrs. Matthews wont on to say, "whan I read that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People had cured a man who hadn't left his bed for years. When they cured one cripple, I thought they might at least ease my pain. I tried them—and they certainly saved my life. "Scon after starting Dr. Williams Pink Pills," concluded Mrs. Matthews,' "I got a wonderful appetite.. Then the pain began to ease up so that I could got a little sound sleep. Soon I lost that old down-hearted feeling. I picked up hope, and kept right on with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. After three boxes I felt as if twenty years had been added to my life. From that time on I gained every day. Before long 1 was. able to go for a short walk, lhe neighbours could scarcely believe their eyes. Now I. am a strong, healthy, hard-working woman, although I am past seventy. When Dr. Williams Pink PiUs saved my life they worked a down-right miracle. My daughter-in-law, Mrs. Alfred Matthews can tell you that they did just as much for her " Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured Mrs. Matthews because they struck straight at the root and cause of her crippling Rheumatism. They don't tinker with mere symptoms. They don t act on the bowels-. They do only one thing, but they do it well—they actually make new blood. In that way they root out the cause of all common b.ood diseases like anaemia, indigestion, biliousness, headaches, backaches, kidney trouble, lumbago, rheumatism, neuralgia, sciatica, spinal weakness, and the special secret ailments of girls and women, who suffer unspeakably when tho richness and regularity of then' I blood becomes disturbed.
