THE NATURAL WAY
TO CURE
INFLAMM ALTON.

Inflammation Is the sustaining element
of the great majority Of our physical Ills.
Aliay this Inflammation, and the pain
ceases. the flesh. muscles. and tendons
resume their normal condition, and the
violence OF the attack is at an end.
II follows, then. that the first step In a
successful assault upon disease is to de-
stroy any existing inflammation. and with
IL the pain. This accomplished the patient
Is at ease.
This is the natural mode OF procedure,
and kindly Nature has furnished the
means to that end In certain roots, barks,
and herbs. which. in their due proportion.
are constituent parts Of Lightning Hot
Drops, the greatest pain panacea ever
known TO medical science.
Freely applied TO a Gus, bruise, burn,
scald, or fiesh-wound of any nature,
Lightning Hot Drops will absolutely kill
the pain. prevent all Inflammation. and
quickly heal the lacerated flesh AS an
instance. what is more painful or distress
ing than a mashed finger, with the nail
torn loose? In such case lightning Hot
Drops gives complete and immediate ease
from pain IL Will smart and burn for a
few minutes when first applied TO fresh
cuts, sores, etc, but a few applications
will take all the soreness out and heal the
cut or sore. The 50 cents size contains
two and n half times as much as the %
cents size Lightning Hot Drops Is pre-
pared by Herb Medicine Company, Spring
