During the winter of 1897, Mr. James
Reed, one of the leading citizens and
merchants Of Clay, Clay county,W. Va,
struck bis leg against a cake of ice in
such a manner as to bruise it severely.
1t became very much swollen and
panied him so badly that he could not
walk without the aid of crutches. He
was treated by physicians, also used
several kinds Of liniment and two and
a half gollons of whisky in bathing it,
but nothing gave any relief until he
began using Chamberlain's Pain Balm.
This brought almost complete cure in
weeks time and he believes that had
to be be amputated. Pain Balm is I'M

matism. For sale by Perry & Thomas.
