Celebrated H. II. X. Medicine IS not q
mere perfumed lubricating oil, the APP
plication of which serves only to amuse
and occupy the patient, but is in reality
a scientific combination of powerful
chemicals and potent drugs, which
have the marvellous property of going
straight TO the seat of the pain, where
they act upon the lymphatics in such
a manner, that the cause of the pain is
absorbed and removed. II does not
matter much whether the pain be due
tOan abnormal swelling, to sprains of
the joints or strains of the muscles or
tendons, to rheumatism, iumbagO,
neuralgia, sciatica, TO toothache or
headache, all Of these are quickly re-
lieved by the magic effect of II. II. III.
No other medicine or liniment seems
to equal it in the rapidity or certainty
Ofits action. Often a single thorough
application causes the pain and dis
comfort to vanish, as if by magic.
The II. II. II. is used only externally.
1t is put up in IS cent size and alJO
