Form oj Neuralgia and Is Cured by the Remedy That Cures Other Forms. Sciatic is neuralgia of the aciatio nerve and the treatment should be the same as for other forms of neuralgia. Lack of blood is almost always associat ed with neuralgia. Build np the blood, the impoverished nerves are fed and the neuralgic pains disappear.

The pains extended down to my foot and were constant unless I sat down and placed my leg out straight. Often I was forced to use crutches. The pains were so severe that I could not get more than two and one-half hours' sleep at a time. "The doctor's medicine did not agree with my stomach and did not help me. I was under the care of different doc tors for eight or ten months and then gave them np and started to use Dr. Williams Pink Pills. I experienced relief sooner than I had hoped for and took several boxes of the pills.
