are prepared for every emergency if you keep a
small bottle of Sloan's Liniment handy. 1t

"Last Saturday, tramping around the Panama
Exposition with wet feet, 1 came home with my
neck so stiff that I couldn't turn. 1 applied
Sloan's Liniment freely and went to bed To

almost disappeared, four hours after the second
application was as good as new March, 1915
