SEVERE NEUR|TIS
PAINS OVERCOME

Neuritis is the inflammation Of a
nerve or group of nerves and its
principal symptom is pain. Some
times the pain is sharp and boring,
sometimes it is shooting and in some
cases there is anumbness of the affect
ed nerve.
The disease is an evidence of gen.
eral condition Of debility. When the
blood becomes thin and weak it can
not carry sufficient nourishmcnt to
the nerves. The tonic treatment is
effective in cases of neuritisaDd many
other forms of nervous trouble.
The value of this treatment is prov
ed by the experience OF Mrs. RATHER
inc Wingler, of No. 239 Sherman
street, st. Parl, MINI. She says;
81 had severe neuritis pains in my
shoulders and neck. My hands were
so numb at times that they felt dead
and at other times the fingers tingled
with pain. Sometimes the pain was
sharp and shooting and / suffered so
that l couldn't sleep, / became very
nervous and had bad headaches that
lasted for hours. The attacks came
on during damp, cold weather.
81 had always heard a great deal
about DR.. Williams Pink Pills SO l
decided to try them. Two weeks
after Istarted taking the pills the pain
seemed little less severe. Gradually
my strength returned, my blood be.
came better and the neuritis pains in
my shoulders and neck disappeared
entirely. / strongly recommend DR..
Williams Pink Pills"
Your own druggist can supply you
with DIR. Williams Pink Pills or you
can order direct from the DR.. Williams

dry and without returning a cent
That took all the JOY out Of life for
Tom. He moped around, and once or
twice he went out to the barn and
looked at the place where she had
stood.

Tom wasn't so far wrong at that
When a boy loses a COW these days it
means something. Older people would
feel Just as bad, especially it, like Tom,
they still had to pay for the cow, with
no way of doing it.
But Toms club leader heard about
it. He knew that none of the club
members was rich. but ne told them
about Toms bad luck. And somehow,
Toms plight appealed to Erm for
