The pains OF rheumatism are caused by
Q poison in the blood setting up an in
Hammation in the delicate membranes
that cover the joints and muscles.
The exact cause OF rheumatism is one
Of the things that the science Of medicine
has not yet determined but 10 is a known
fact that the seat of the trouble Is In the
blood and that the disease must be COM
bated in the blood. Unless the poison il
driven out the disease will return at every
exposure TO cold or dampness.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills have cured
hundreds of cases, and are the most di-
rect treatment OF rheumatism, because
they enrich the thin blood and enable il
10 throw of the poisons of the disease.
When this is done the rheumatism Il per-
manently cured and as long az the blood
n kept pure and rich the patient will be
immune from attacks of rheumatism.
Mrs. Charles Day, of Tdioute, Warren
Co., Pa, was crippled with rheumatism
for several months and owes her health
10 DR.. Williams Pink Pills. She says:

matism which first noticed as a pain In
my right knee. The pain went down TO
my ankle and some times would be in
both knees, causing them toswell, and was
20 intense that could not move without
the greatest agony. My hands were
drawn up 50 that they were useless and it
seemed as though every joint in my body
was affected. I was In bed nearly al
winter and was entirely helpless.
For two months l was under q doc

any good. l then tried liniments and
various medicines but received no help.

LIQUID CURES ECZEMA
WHERE SALVES FAIL

In regard to skin diseases. medical
authorities are now agreed on this:
Don't imprison the disease germs
In your skin by the use OF greasy
salves, and thus encourage them TO
multiply. A true cure OF all eczema
tous diseases can be brought about
only by using the healing agents in
the form of liquid.
Wash the germs out.
A simple wash: A compound OF Oil
of Wintergreen, Thymol, and other in
gradients as combined in the ID. ID. ID,
Prescription. This penetrates to the
disease germs and destroys them, then
soothes and heals the skin as nothing
else has ever done.
