Harsh purgatives, formerly much used,

TsForse than before. Pinl1lets correct this

effective and thorough, and they do not

NOR 5rritate and over-stimulate the bowels.
Because they have none of these evil
effects, they can be taken with entire

WHAT TO DO FOR NEURALGIA

The one great symptom of neuralgia is
pain; the one great cause is lack ofnutri-
ton for the nerves, in plain language
starved nerves.
There are two things to do for any
form of neuralgia. Apply heat to the
affected part to soothe the pain, and feed
the nerves by taking tonic containing
the elements needed by them. Heat, as
afforded by hot flannel, hot water bags,
etc., lulls the infamed nerves into tenn
porary quiet. 1t does not cure. Not I'M
til the nutrition of the nerves is restored
will the inflammation subside.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills furnish to the
blood the needed elements and the blood
conveys them to the nerves. The only
way of getting food or medicine to the
nerves is through the blood. Remember
that.
Neuralgia is a general term. 1t means
Inflammation of a nerve. 1t is given diff
ferent names according to the nerve af-
fected. Sciatica is neuralgia of the sciatic
nerve. Application of heat viii soothe
the pain in all forms of neuralgia and DR..

dition that caused it.
