I. MORI,

LOOK POONG SHAN, SportChiaf Wang Hong Kong, 19th February, 1927.

The evidence of Mr. Karl Wain- man, manager of the Metropolitan Hotel, Colombo, Ceylon, affords convincing proof in this connection, Mr. Welnman states: "For eight months I suffered from rheumatism very acutely. The pains were in. my muscles and joints and caused; me such agony at times that I could not move from my bed. Constipation troubled mo, I had no appetite, there was hardly a night that I slept soundly. This state of my health made me greatly worried and depressed.

"Acting on the advice of a doctor I commenced a course of Dr. Wil-| llams' Pink Pills. After the first two bottles there was marked Im-] provement, the pains were much easier, my appatite revived and I was able to sleep better. As I continued taking the pills the feel- Ing of depression vanished and be fore long all signa of rheumatism disappeared.

I put my rheuma- tiem down to exposure. Dr. Wil liams' Pink Pills cured me of it entirely, therefore I recommend the pills to other rheumatic sufferers."

Any reliable chemist can supply you with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, But be sure they are Dr, Williams'. To get the same results as Mr. Weinman you must have the genuine, not substitutes,
