Spring' Reminders
of Rheumatism
Raw, '`Damp -Weather Startu the
Pain, but the Trouble Lies
In the 'Blood.
Spring weather is bad for rheuma-

to Bold, the raw, damp winds t::eart
the aches and twinges, of in the
more extreme cases, the tortures of
the erectile going. But it must be
borne in mind thee it Is not the wea-
ther that causes rheumatism, The
trouble is rooted In the; blood -that
changeable weather merely starts the
patios, The only 'ray to reach the
trouble and to cure it is through the
blood. The poisonous rheumatic ac-
ids mustbe driven out. Liniments
and rubbing may givea
u g temporary re-
lief, but cannot possibly cure the
trouble, The sufferer is only 'wast-
ing time and money with this kind el
treatment+ and the " tri'oubee. is be-
comir.a more deeply rooted—harder • to
oure. There is just one speedy cure'
for rheumatism—Dr. Williams' Plink`
Pills. They act direceiy on the
pure,`acid-taunted blood. They pur-
ify and strengthen it and thus root
out the cause of the rbeuniatlrlm,'
Here is strong proof of the above.

was alttackedt with inflamma-

he could only walk when someone
helped harm about. One arm he had
to carry in a sling, and we felt surd
he wound be a cripple for life, The
trouble also affected bis heart, The
doctor said his blood was turning to
water and we had little hope for
recovery. The medicine the doctor
gave him did not do more than soothe
the pain a little, then he would be
as bad as ever. On a former occag-'
ion Dr. Pink Pills had our -

we finally, decided to try then in
