entirely destroyed, and the main part Of
the house badly damaged by fire and

SWOLLEN FINGERS
AND PAINFUL JOINTS CAUSED BY
RHEUMATISM.
n Severe Case Mt Gambia, n. H., Cured by
DR.. Williams Pink Pills
for Pale People.

"a few years ago." says Mrs. F. D.
Rowe, of Gambia, N. H, "when I had
been suffering the agonies of rheumatism
fortwo years, 1 found relief in DIR. viii.
iams' Pink Pills for Pale People. Be-
fore l tried this remedy my fingers
were swollen and all my Joints panied
me terribly. The disease affected NV
stomach so that l became troubled with
indigestion and constipation, my ner.
uous system became unstrung and 1
found myself melancholy and morose
and in a generally miserable condition.
And all the time 1 was in pain from the
rheumatism.
IAN account in the papers of a per-
son cured of troubles like mine by DIR.
Williams Pink Pills, led me- to try
them, and before the first box was all
taken the pain and soreness seemed bet
ter. A few boxes more drove the rhcu-
matlsm away and now 1 feel well. Nv
husband also took this medicine for
rheumatism with gratifying results"
The real cause of rheumatism is the
presence of acid in the blood, which
lrrltates the sensitive tissues that unite
the JOINTS and cover the muscles, thus
causing those indescribable t%ortures
which rheumatic sufferers endure. DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People go
directly to the seat of the trouble, puri-
Tying and enriching the blood by elm
mating poisonous elements and renew
ing health-giving forces, thus making a
potent remedy for curing this disease.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills are a positive
specific not only for rheumatism, but for
such diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial
paralysis, st. Vitus' dance, sciatica, neu-
ralgla, nervous headache, the after-effects
OF the grip, of fevers and other acute
diseases, palpitation of the heart, pale
and sallow compilations and all forms Of
weakness either in male OIL female DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People are
sold by all dealers or will be sent post
paid on receipt of price, fifty cents a box;
six boxes for two dollars and fifty cents,
(they are never sold in bulk or by the
hundred) by DIR. Williams Medicine Co.,
Schenectady, N. Y. Be sure to get the
genuine; substitutes never cured any
