Acid in the Blood -.Can Only he Cured Through the Good Not many years ago even doctors thought that rheumatism was only a local pain caused by exposure to cold or wet, Now they know that the trou- ble is caused by the blood becoming tainted with uric acid. This condition of the blood causes the muscles to con- tract, stiffins the joints and irritates tie nerves. If not promptly treated the pain grows worse until you are a helpless cripple, tortured day and night. If the disease touches the heart it means sudden death. You cannot cure rheumatism with liniments, plasters or hot cloths, as so many try to do. You must go right to the root of the trouble in the blood. The scientific way to cure rheumatism is to take Dr, Willi- ams' Pink Pills, which make new, rich blood that goes right to the root of the trouble. They sweep out the poisonous acid, loosen the aching joints and mus- cles and bring ease and freedom where before had been pain and misery. Miss Beulah Sheppy, Morpeth, Ont., says: "Following an attack of measles I took inflammatory rheumatism. My joints became swollen and the pain was almost unendurable. I doctored with two doctors, but the pain was only re- lieved while I was taking their medi- cine, and soon returned. For six months I continued to suffer in this way. Then I tried electric pads, but they failed to do'me any good, Finally a friend persuaded me to try Dr. Wil- liams' Pink Pills, and I had not been taking them long before 1 found relief. I continued using the Pills for a time and soon found myself in perfect health and feeling like a new person. I never lose an opportunity to recommend Dr. Williams' Pink Pills as I cannot say enough in favor of them." Sold by all medicine dealers or by mail at 50 cents a box or six boxes for $2.50 from the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont. EAST WAWANOSU, Mr. John Menzies left last week for the West.
