Universal Household Remedy from infancy to

steadily increased. 1t has probably saved
more lives and relieved suffering than
any other remedy, its special province being
the treatment of Inflammation, both internally
and externally. Every Mother should have
it in the house, dropped on sugar suffering
children love it. Every athlete should rub
down with it. 1t produces en- increase OF vital

power to throw off and prevent disease.
