EARNEST ADVICE

LII NANI AAV AS
However painful, however stub
born your rheumatism may be, even
IL the disease is OF long standing and
many remedies have failed, do not
despair, but give DIR. Williams'
Pink Pills trial. The rheumatic
poison is in the blood and it defies
any treatment that does not build
up and purify the blood. Rubbing
something on your skin will not
drive it out. DIR. Williams' Pink
Pills attack the disease at its root,
in the blood, and rheumatism
cured in this way stays cured.

Packer, Conn, who cured him.

ence, as follows: after my dis
charge from the army in 1898, /
suffered terribly from rheumatic
pains and numbness. Attimes the
numbness was very bad and greatly
alarmed me. The rheumatic pains
were in the joints of my left arm
and leg and invariably followed a
numbness which was the first in
dication of the rheumatism. My
left foot was swollen and sore, 80
much so, that could not lace my
shoe sometimes. At times / was
practically helpless for two or three
weeks. The pains in my arm and
leg were sharp and cutting. / tried
all known medicines and saw little
If any benefit from their treatment.
/ finally ordered a box of DR.. Will
liams' Pink Pills and the second
box showed great benefit. A few
more boxes were all that were
needed to make me entirely WE'LL"

Whenthe Hudson's Bay Trading Com- pany began it's trading among the In dians it was found that by selling the Indians liquor they could more easily be induced to trade their peltries. The first yvhisfey or intoxicant of inferior quality was distilled in England and brought to America in large barrels but in trans porting 1t overland it was found more convenient to divide it into small kegs The. traders soon became aware of the .gact that by diluting the whiskey with Ewater more furs could be obtained This wos proctfsed for sometime but the In dians learned that good whiskey pou- ed on 8 fire wouldb1aze up, whereas had the whiskey been diluted the fire would be quenched. It was by the simple ex- pertinent that the term fire water be- came a common word among the Inda- ans A chief who had experienced the bad effects of whiskey among his peOu1s said 1t was most certainly distilled from the hearts of wild cats and the tongues of women from the bad affects it pro- duced.
