be favor to the public to say that l have used
Miss. Sawyer's Salve for ten years. and believe it to
be most valuable remedy for the purposes for
which 1t is recommended 1t is most effective for
animals in cases where salve is used for them.
1t has proved an almost certain cure Tor ordinary
scratches in horses

MISS SAWYER'S
= a l. " Il !!

HERE you have salve combining soothing and
IL hea ing properties, with no dangerous ingredi-
ent. remedy at hand for the many pains and
aches, wounds and bruises to which the flesh is heir.
Is more easily applied than many other remedies,
never producing bad effect but always relieving
pain, however severe. .9at-
1t is prepared by MISS SAWYER, who has used
1t in her town extensive treatment of the SICK for
N early twenty years, with great success.
The principle diseases for which this Salve is
commended are, Chilblains, Rheumatism, Piles,
Scrofula, Old Ulcers, Salt Rheum, sprains Burns,
Fever Sores, Fe'ons, Pimples, Erysipelas, Sore
Eyes, BARRIERS Itch, Deafness, Boi's, Ring worms,
Corns, Bites of Insects Cancers, Toothache, Ear
ache, Sore Nipples, Badness, Swollen Breasts,
Itch, Scald Head, Teething, Chapped Hands, Scalds
Cuts, Bruises, Group, Cracked Lips, and Sores on
children.
II will never fail to cure Rheumatism if properly
applied. Rub it on well with the hand three times
day In several cases it has cured palsied limbs,
ely. Persons who have been afflicted for years
have been relieved by few applcat' ons. For cry
SlfELAS 1t works wonders, allaying the infamma-
ton and queting the patient. For CHAPPED
HANDS It produces cure Immediately. Let those
with SALT RHEUM obtain this Salve and apply it
freely, and they will find it invaluable. 1t is good
in case of SCROFULA and INCONSISTENCIES

vented Tor SWOLLEN BREAST and SORE NIP
Piles. No way injurious, but sure to afford relief
once or twice day. Cures deafness by putting it
in the ears on piece of cotton. For PIMPLES
this acts like charm. For BURNS and SCALDS
apply the Salve at once and it gives immediate
re LET; For OLD SORES, apply once day.,
FOR HORSES AND CATTLE.-FOr Sores or bruises
on Horses or Cattle this Salve is invaluable, and
has astonishing effect in curing scratches on horses

ana is safe and sure remedy for all the above all
ments.
