There is one medicine which every
family should be provided with. We
refer to Chamberlain Pain Balm.
When il is kept at hand the severe
pain of burn or scald NAV be
promptly relieved and the sore healed
in much less time than when medi-
cine has to be sent for. A sprain may
be promptly treated before inflamma-
ton sets in, which insures a cure in
about 0ne-third the time otherwise
required. Cuts and bruises should
receive immediate attention. before
the parts become swollen. and when
Chamberlain Pain Balm is applied
it will heal them without matter be-
ing formed. and without leaving :.
scar. A sore throat NAV be cured in
one night. A piece of flannel damp
ened with this liniment aud bound on
over the seat of pain will cure lame
back or pain in the side or chest in
twenty-four hours. 1t is the most
valuable, however. for rheumatism.
Persons afflicted with this disease
will be delighted with the prompt re-
lief from pain which it affords. and
it can be depended upon to effect a
complete cure. For sale by Joseph
