FOR OVER THIRTY YEARS
PERRY DAVIS VEGETABLE PAIN-KILLER

HAS BEEN TEsTED1N EVERY VARIETY OF CLIMATE
AND BY ALMOST EVERY NATION KNOWN
TO AMERICANS.
It is the constant companion and eStinable
friend of the missionary and the traveller, on sea
and land, and no one should travel OIL our Lakes
or Rivers withoutit.
1t has been before the public over thirty years,
and probably has wider and better reputation
than any other proprietary medicine OF the pres
ent day. At this period there are hut Few un;'c-
uuainted with the merits of the Pain-Killer; hut
while some extol it as liniment, they know but
little Of it's power in easing pain when taken in
ternally while others use it internally with great
success but are equally ignorant of its healing
virtues when applied externally. We therefore
wish to say to all that it is equally successful,
whether used internally externally, and it
stands to-day, unrivaled by all the great catalogue
of family medicines. 1t is sufficient evidence OF
it's virtues as standard medicine, to know that it
is now used in all parts of the world and that its
sale is constantly increasing. No curative agent
has had such wide spread sale or given such uni
versa satisfaction. 1t is purely vegetable com
pound, and perfectly safe in unskilltul hands.
After thirty years trial, it is stih receiving the
most unqualified testimonials to its virtues, from
persons Of tho highest character and responsible
ty. Physicians Of the first responsibility, recon-
mend it as most eectual preparation for the ex-
tinction of pain. 1t is not only the best remedy
ever known for Bruises, Cuts, Burns, DC, but for
dysentery or cholera or any sort of bowel COM
plant, it is a remedy unsurpassed for efficiency
and rapidity of action. In the great cities OF In
dia, and other hot climates, it has become STAN
darl Medicine for all such complaints, as well as
for Dyspepsia, Liver Complaints, and other kim
tlred disorders. For Coughs and Colds, Canker,
Asthma and Rheumatic difficulties, it has been
proved by the most abundant and convincing teS-
tmony to be an invaluable medicine
BernycOf all ImH0tfOns.
The Pain Killer is sold by all respectable drug
gists throughout the United States and foreign
countries.
Prices-25 cents, so cents and 81 per bottle
