PAIN PAINT will cool but never stain:
Pumps Inflammation out;
IT'S harmless on the breast or brain,
A trial stops all doubt.
When Inflammation leaves the frame.
All pain will cease at once;
Remove the cause, It's all the same
None doubts unless Ounce.
The pores will ope and drink PAIN PAINT;
Absol bents fill with ease;
Restores the weak, the sick, the faint
The greatest skeptic p.ease.
Evaporation cools the place
As Inflammation flies;
Hot blood at the absorbent's base
Makes PAINT in vapors rise.
IT'S thus PAIN PAINT removes all doubt.
Removes the very cause
BY pumping inflammation out;
On this we rest our cause.
