NOT A TWINGE IN HIS BODY
DODD'S KIDNEY PILLS CURED
W. J. DIXON'S RHEUrrIA-
TISM.
He was Crippled for Weeks Before
ho Tried the Great Kidney Rem-
edy—How the Cure was Effected.
Barwick, Rainy Hiver, Ont., Dec.
28.—(Special).—Tho cold, wetwea-
ther, with its accompaniment of
Rheumatic pains has set the people
here talking of the case of Wm. John
Dixon. fir. Dixon, who is well
known in this neighborhood, was a
cripple from Rheumatism. To -day he
has not a twinge of his old enemy
anywhere . in his body, and he gives
all the credit to Dodd's Kidney Pills.
"I had un attack of Typhoid Fev-
er," Mr. Dixon says in speaking of
his cure, 'said- alter I got over. AS -
Rheumatism set in. I had pains in
my hack and in my right hip so bad
I had to use n stick to walk. I had
no comfort in sleeping and could no
more than dress or undress myself
for two months. For three or four
weeks I could not put my right leg
on my left knee.
"On my brother's advice I started
using Dodd's ICidney fills, and after
taking three boxes I began to walk
around and do Sty work as usual. i
aur all right now, and 11odd's ICid-
ney Pills did it."
Rheumatism is caused by uric acid
In the blood. The natural way to
cure it is to get the uric Heid out
of the blood. If the Kidneys are
sound they will take all the uric acid
out of the blood. Dodo's Kidney
1'ilis make the Kidney's sound.
