stood the test of time. They have performed more
wonderful cures of obstinate bed.ridden crpples,
and have allev lated more pains in shorter space
of time, than all other Liniments, Embroca
tons, Extracts, Ointments aud saves in exis-
tence. Their sale is increasing regularly and
rapidly Their best endorsers are physicians,
surgeons, and veterinaries. 1here is literally no
of flesh, bone or muscle ailment upon either
man or beast which the Centaur Liniments will
not alleviate and generally cure. But it must be
