for every home.

Many comforts and conveniences for the
home are denied the masses of the people
for the reason of their expense. There is,
however, one comfort that is in the reach
of every family from the day laborer to
the millionaire, an article which is needed
and can be used to good advantage every
day. This article is PARAGRAPH,
First Aid to the Injured, a combination
of cooling, soothing, healing oils and
camphor, especially prepared toquicklyr re-
1ievethe aches and pains of every member
of the family. Mothers of course realize
the necessity of such an article in their
homes, and as the use OF Paracamph has
proven that it is far superior to and more
useful than Arnica, Witch Hazel, Vase
line, Liniments, ETC., it IS to the interest
of every mother TOT try Paracamph at once.
Paracamph is absolutely pure, clean and
safe and its powers for quickly relieving
and curing pains and aches are truly re.
narkable. Don t hesitate; try Paracamph
to-day. Every bottle is guaranteed. Trial
