that his paper aims to advertise

a bottle of 1t for his wife, who for
eight weeks had suffered with the
most terrible pains In her back and
could get no relief, He says. "Af
ter using the Pain Balm for few
days my wife said to me, I feel as
though born anew and before
using the entire contents of the
bottle the unbeatable pains had
entirely vanished and she could
again take up her household du-
