HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT and PILLS
supremely efficacious in CURING WOUNDS.—Mrs. Eli-
zabeth Belson, of finettisham, near Lynn, had suffered for
twenty weeks from a dreadful wound in her leg, occasioned by
falling upon an Iron scraper. Remedies innumerable and diver-
sifted were applied, but all failed. She supposed she would have
been a cripple for life, when she was advised to try Holloway's
Ointment and Pills. After employing a few boxes of both, the
wound assumed a healthy appearance; the leg subsequently
became perfectly sound. and she is now quite well.
