not Immediately getit from town. The first
application gave relief. We used about
three bottles and the burns were healed up
nicely, although they were very bad burns.
My little girl was playing and fell knock
ing the grease in her lap; she was burned
on both legs from the knees almost to her
hips, and in removing her clothing a great
deal of the skin came off, leaving her legs
perfectly raw. have used Paracanph for
a great many things since then, andnever
like to be without it in my house. have
quite a family and find it a great task to
write, but hope my letter will reach you
in time, as am great friend Of Para
cainph. ! could tell you more Of its good
works but guess this will be enough for
this time. ] am always wiling TO sound
the praise of available remedy"
This letter should convince all mothers
