Is An In4eation That the Blood
is Thin and Watery.
The first sign ox rheumatism is fre-
eeentlly:a pain and swelling of one of
the joints. If this isnot treated
through the blood, which is the seat of
the disease, the poison spreads, affect-
ing other joints end tissnles- -some-
times rheumatism ,atta4ks the heart
and is fatal. •
A remedy that has corrected many
mews ;of rheumatism is Dr. °Williams'
Plink Pills. These pills enrich and
purify the blood so that the poisonous
rheumatic matter is driven out,of the
system as nature intended. Miss Ger-
tie Deane, Washago, Ont., was attack-
ed with . rheumatism and ;Sound relief
through Dr, Williams' Pink Pills. She
says:—"About a .year ago I was at-
tacked by rheumatism and for two
weeks was confined to my bed. The
trouble was so painful, affecting -the
joints of my limbs so that I could not
stand alone. Mother had a box of Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills. in the house and
thought they might help me. I began
taking them, and when I had taken
these pills got a further supply, with
the result that the rheumatism van-
isher' and I was a well girl. I may add
that my mother and two of my sisters
have also used the pills for various ail-
ments with equal success, and now we
are never without them in the house."
• If you are suffering from any con-
dition due bo poor, watery blood, or
weak nerves,begin taking Dr. Wil-
liams' Pink Pills now, and note how,
your strength and health will improve.
You can get these pills through any
dealer in medicine, for by mail, at 50
cents a box, from The Dr. Williams'
Medicine Co., Brockville, Ont.
Love Song.
I have loved you enough;
Though much went wrong,
Thiswas good,
This was strong;
Unshaken in spite
Of the going of years,
Too sure to retract,
Too proud for tears.
Let my love be the pillow
Under. your head,
On your lips like a song,
To your hunger, bread.
