Chamberlain's Pain Balm Cures Others. Why
Not You?

My wife has been using Chamber
lain's Pain Balm, with good results,
for lame shoulder that has panied
her continually for nine years. We
have tried all kinds of medicines and
doctors without receiving any benefit
from any of them. One Gay we saw an
advertisement of this medicine and
thought of trying it, which we did with
only one bottle and her shoulder is al
most well.-Adolph l.. Millett, Mar.

In the Thick OF II.

Say, Wnlliltr go these fellows
With hair 50 very long
Their muscles indicating
That they are very strong?
Their suits are thickly padded
With pride their faces glow
Some objects queer they carry
Say, whittier do they go?
These chaps with bulging muscles
And raderewski hair,
With pads of large dimensions
In clothing that they wear
Why, they're the seasons heroes,
W.o bravely strive for fame,
And proudly they are going
To play a football game.
Whence come these tattered fellows
With hair 50 badly torn,
While some, all cut and battered,
Are by their comrades borne?
And here and there is limping
A chap with bandaged shin,
And some have both eyes blackened-
Where have these victims been?
They've not been in Il battle,
Although it looks that way;
Their wounds We're not inflicted
By men in deadly fray.
All, no, these tattered fellows,
Some cut, some bruised. some lame
Are heroes who've been playing
A Rugby football game.
They don't regard the bruises,
They never shrink at mire:
For laurels they are striving,
To glory they aspire.
They're now the seasons heroes,
These chaps of grit and Drawn,
So call the ambulanceS
And let the game go on.
