Dalley's Magical Pain Extractor.

In all diseases inflammation more or less
predomlnates--now TO allay Inflammation
strikes at the root Of disease-hence an i'm
mediate cure.
DalIeyS' Magical Pain Extractor,
and nothing else, will allay inflammation at
once, and make certain cure.
Dalley's Magical Pain Extractor
will cure the following among a catalogue of
diseases; burns, sca!ds, cuts. chafes. sore nip-
pies, corns, bunions, strains, bites, poison.
chilblalns, bIles, scrofnla, ulcers. fever sores
ieions, ear ache, piles, sore eyes, gout, swell
lnigs, rheumatism, scald head, salt rheum.
Oai6ness, eTysipelas, rlngwOrm, BARRIERS itch,
smn i pox, measles, rash, &C.. &c.
10 some 1t may seem increduIous that so
many diseases should be reached by one arti-
Gle; such an idea will vanish when reflection
points 10 the fact, that the saIye is combjna-
tion of ingredients, each and every one ap-
plying perfect antdoto to its opposite dis
order.
DaLtey'S Magical PAIN Extractor
In its effects is magical, because the time is
so short between disease and permanent
cure; and 1t is an extractor. as it draws all
disease out Of the affected part, leaving ma
ture as perfect as before the injury. 1t is
scarcely necessary to say that no house, work
shop, or manufactury should be one moment
without it.
No Pain Extractor is genuine unless the
box has upon IT steel plate engraving, with
the name of Henry Daley, Manufacturer,
For sale by all the Druggists and patent
medicine dealers throughout the United
States and Canadas.

"There is an unguarded way into the

A shcat irom Marion brought the

As they reached the top Of she stairs,
the light shone out from the room where

they hurried to the door. Five troopers
stood prepared for conflict within the a.
