One Of the Triumpns Of Modern Sur
gery.-By applying an antiseptic dress
ing to wounds, bruises, burns and like
injuries before Inflammation sets in,
they may be healed without maturation
and in one-third the time required by
the old treatment. This is one of the
greatest discoveries and triumphs of
modern surgery. Chamberlain's Pain
Balm acts on this same principle. It
is an antiseptic and when applied to
such injuries causes them to heal very
quickly 1t also allays the pain and
soreness. Keep a bottle of Pain Balm
in your home and it will save you time
and money, not to mention the incon-
venience and suffering such injuries
entail. For sale by all dealers, Ben
son, Smith & Co., agents for Hawaii.
