There is one medicine which every
family should be provided with. We
refer to Chamberlain Pain Balm.
When it is kept at hand the severe
pain of burn or scald may be
promptly relieved and the sore healed
in much less time than when mrdi-
cine has to be sent for. \ sprain may
be promptly treated before inhama-
ton sets in, which insures a cure ia
about one-third the time otherwise
required. Cuts and bruises should re-
ceive immediate attention, before the
parts become swollen, and when
Chamberlain Pain Balm is applied il
will heal them without matter be ng
formed, and without leaving a scar.
A sore throat may be cured in one
night. A piece of flannel dampened
with this liniment and 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 af-
| lighted with the prompt relief from
pain which it affords, and it can be
| depended upon to effect complete
cure. For sale by all druggists ard
