Nt!.inple mare driven by Superin-

Mine on the C"lnstOck Lode had been in
the stable, unable to work from the kick
of another animal, received on the inside
OF the right fore leg above the knee. The
SKIN had been broken and the muscles
and tendons severely bruised During a
weeks time had given the limb such
treatment as, from thirty years professi-
onai experience, | thought beneficial:
but without avail. The leg was swollen
TO nearly twice its natural size and the
swelling would not yield to treatment.
ON Thursday evening, June Is, 1896.

ounce bottle over the whole leg. | an

three days. On the fourth day the mare
went 10 work, completely cured-the
most surprising and satisfactory cure
coming unoer my observation during a
lifetime devoted to the treatment of
horses.
During the past eight months | have
used TINS ilnlment regularly in my prac-
tlce. Trib fulflls all its promises.
