Two years ago the democrats elect

Wounds, Bruises and Burns.

By applying an ant:septic dress
ing to wounds, bruises, burns aud
like injuries before inflammation
sets in, they may be healed without
maturation and in about one-third
the time required by the old treat
ment. This is the greatest discovery
and triumph Of modern surgery.
Chamberlain Pain Balm acts on
this same principle. In is an anti
septic and when applied to such in
juries, causes them to heal very
quickly. 1t also allays the pain and
soreness and prevents any danger
Of blood poisoning. Keep q bottle
of Pain Balm in your home and it
will save you time and money, not
70 mention the inconvenience and
suffering such injuries entail. For
