FOR SCIATIC
RHEUMATISM


Sciatica is neuralgia of the sciatio
nerve. Its origin is generally rheu-
matte and is the direct result of taking
cold. oFor this reason the disease is
commonly known rs 'sciatic rheuma-
tism.'. That DIR. Williams Pink Pills
cure this disease is shown by numerous
cases like that of Mrs. J.. B. Hansen, of
No. 221 Twentieth Ave-, &c., Minnea-
polls, Mimi. She says:
ga few years ago following an attack
of the grip I was taken with sciatica.
For six years / suffered untold agony
and thought it would be a blessing to
me if I could only die. There were
sharp, shooting pains in both of my
limbs and my shoulders and arms were
affected also but not so severely. If 1
moved about quickly, the pain would
catch me 80 that I had to scream. My
limbs would swell until 1 could hardly
walk. I also had a terrible dull pain
in my back which was often unbear-
able. I was confined to bed for a week
or two at a time. While suffering from
the sciatica l was further rundown by
weakness common to women of my age.
81 received 80 little relief from the
doctors medicine that I became dis
couraged and quit it. My husband
urged me to try DR.. Williams Pink
Pills as he had read how they had cur
ed cases like mine. l felt better after
had taken the pills a short time but
took several boxes until / was certain I
was cured. / give this statement of my
cure thinking that other sufferers may
be helped as / was through using Dr..
Williams Pink Pills"
The tonic treatment with DR.. Will
Hams Pink Pills succeeds where other
treatments fail because it is based on
the sound medical principle that the
health of the nerves depends on pure,
red blood.

Punctually at eleven the painter was
ushered into my Office, followed by a
nineteen-year-old, fair-haired boy, the
son of a rich widow, worry nervous and
awkward, who dropped his hat and
stick a half dozen times in the space
Of five minutes. There was little of
the expert burglar about him. Yes, he,
too, had struck up two waltzes and a
quadrille, but he had left early when
he found it vas getting a bit rowdy.
There remained, therefore, only one
player, and if he was like those l

on the two stains, fell to the ground.
