sIOan's Linimant Eases Pain.


SIoan's Liniment is first thought of
mothers for bumps, bruises and
sprains that are continually happen
ing to children. 1t quickly penetrates
and soothes without rubbing. Clean
er and more effective than mussy
plasters or ointments. For rheumatic
aches, neuralgia pain and that grippy
soreness after colds, Sloan's Linz
ment gives prompt relief. Have a
bottle handy for bruises, strain:
sprains and all external pain. Foi
the thousands whose work calls then
outdoors, the pains and aches follow
ing exposure are relieved by Sloan''
Liniment. At all druggists, 25c.
