NFLAMMATORY RHEUMATISM.

Most Treatments Are Unsatisfactory but
DR.. Williams Pink Pills Have Cured So
Many Stubborn Cases That They Com
mand Trial.
1t is unnecessary to tell the sufferer from
nfiammatory rheumatism that the ordinary
treatments for this disease are unsatisfac-
ory.
Physicians are not of one mind on the
subject but the highest authorities hold that
rheumatism is disease of the blood All
admit that in attacks of rheumatism there
is marked and rapid thinning of the blood.
This is a condition that treatment with
DR.. Williams Pink Pills at once arrests and
corrects. The thin blood is enriched, the
strengthened organs of the body throw off
the poisonous impurities and the patient
gets well. The one impressive fact is that
while most treatments for rheumatism are
experimental, DR.. Williams Pink Pills have
cured so many stubborn cases that their
beneficial action in this disease is as certain
as anything in medicine
Mr.. John f. Crichton, a retired grocer,
of 1887 Fulton street, Chicago, H., and a
veteran of the Civil war in which he served
; as a member of Co. A. Hath Illinois Infan-
try, bears witness to this truth. He says:
81 was afflicted with infiammatory rheu-
matism for twenty years and had received
I only temporary relief from the doctors.
. About three years ago was helpless in bed
with it. l could not use either hand or foot
for over two months and suffered intense
pain. My limbs were swollen and l could
not move at all without great pain. l had
sleepless nights and thought l would never
be able to get around again. My friends
and comrades thought was going to die.
81 had paid out lot of money in doctors
bills but was not cured. One day an old
war comrade urged me to try Dr.. Williams
| Pink Pills as he knew of cases they had
cured. Before l had taken them a great
while, l was feeling much better i'm.
proved rapidly and was able to get out OF
bed and move around. | am now in per.
feet health and have not had a touch OF
rheumatism in any part of my body since"
With the fact in mind that the rheuma
tism is in the blood, it will readily be seen
how useless it is to try to cure it by rub
bling liniments on the skin. External APP
plications may give temporary relief from
pain but to cure rheumatism you must treat
it through the blood. DR.. Williams Pink
Pills have cured more cases of rheumatism
than any other prescription and no sufferer
should allow any prejudice to stand in the
way of giving these pills a thorough trial.
Dr. Williams Pink Pills are sold by al
druggists, will be mailed, postpaid, OF
receipt of price, SO cents per box; six boxes
for 49, so, by the DIR. Williams Medicine Co.
