FROM ATTACKS
OF RHEUMATISM
Suffered Great Pain for Years Until
He Built Jp His Blood and Drove
Out the Poison

The poisons Of rheumatism are In
the blood. Building up the blood and
making it rich in oxygen burns out
these poisons.
In rheumatism the blood becomes
thin with great rapidity and no per-
maneut recovery is possible until the
blood Is made pure and red
These are two reasons why treating
the blood. is the best way to combat
rheumatism.
Il suffered from rheumatism for
SIX years" relates Mr.. Barney Rul-
man, Of No 1916 North Western ave-
nue., Oklahoma City, Okla. @The
pain was chiefly in my legs, shoulders
and back and sometimes I was so bad
ly crippled that I was unable TO rise
after sitting down. There were times
when It was a great and very painful
effort to lift my arm The pains were
especially severe at night and it was
almost impossible for me to find a
position in which ] could be comfort
able enough to get to sleep. Food
distressed me and never tasted good.
I lost weight and strength.
q had heard OF Dr. Williams Pink
Pills for a great many years and when
numerous medicines had failed to give
me any relief I decided to give this
remedy a trial After ten DAYS treat
ment noticed that the pain was
little less severe and / was so pleased
with even this small improvement
that I continued taxing the pills. In
a few weeks the pain entirely disap-
peared from my back, shoulders and
legs. I get about now without pain
and feel better than I have for a long
