my praise Of your wonderful prepa-
ration, Paracamph. MY first exper-
fence with Paracamph was about one
year ago; my little girl was very badly
burned with hot grease. ! One Of my
kind neighbors recommended Para
hand, as we live in the country and
could not Immediately get it from
town The first application gave re-
lief. We used about three bottles and
the burns were healed up nicely, al
though they were very bad burns.
my little girl, was playing and fell
knocking the grease In her lap; she
was burned on both legs from the
knees almost to her hips, and in re-
moving her clothing a great deal OF
the skin came of. leaving her legs
perfectly raw ] have used Para
camph for a great many things since
then, and never like to be without It
in my house. have quite a family
and find it a great task to write, but
I hope my letter will reach you in
time, as I am great friend OF Para
good works but guess this will be
enough for this time. I am always
willing to sound the praise OF a val,

This letter should convince all
mothers Of the necessity for keeping
in their homes a bottle of Paracamph.
This wonderful remedy is needed al
most every day in the year. It not
only relieves pain quickly but 1t heals
all manner Of wounds without leaving
ugly scars. Get a bottle Of Para

Misses Connections.
A handsomely gowned young woman,
said by a bystander who pretended to
know to be a member Of the Francis Will
son company, had an exciting experience
at the federal buildingsthis morning. She
was accompanied BY a fuzzy little dog,
which trotted ahead Of her as she started
to leave the building thru the revolving
storm door, The maiden made the cir
cult all right, but the dog remained in
the compartment and was whirled back
into the building. =. u
The pup was missed, and Miss Sou
brette returned to the building. AS she
came into theadoor the dog darted into
it from the other side and was swung to
the outside. The owner started out and
the dog again darted into the door. The
maid made three trips thru the door and
the dog made as many. A bystande1
ended the performance by catching the
dog and holding him until the owner could
again get on the right side of the door
