If they rub hard enough the friction causes warmth, in the affected part, which temporarily relieves the pain, but in a short time the aches and pains are as bad as ever. All the rubbing, and all the liniments and outward appli gations in the world won't cure rheu- matism, it is rooted in the blood. Rubbing won't remove the poi- sonous acid in the blood that causes the pain. But Dr. Williams' Pink Pills will. becatise they ave a blood medi- cine, acting the blood.
