TERRIBLY SWOLLEN
Suffering Described As Torture
Relieved by Black -Draught.

RoSsville, Ga.-Mrs. Kate Lee Able, OF
This place, writes: "My husband is an
engineer, and once while lifting, he in
Iured himself with a piece of heavy ma
chinery, across the abdomen. He was
so sore he could not bear TO press on
himself at all, on chest or abdomen. He
weighed l65 lbs., and fell off until he
weighed 10 lbs, in two weeks.
He became constipated and it looked
like he would die. We had three different
doctors, yet with all their medicine, his
bowels failed TO act. He would turn up
ten-cent bottle of castor oil, and drink
II two or, three days in succession. He
did this yet without result. We became
desperate, he suffered so. He was swol-
len terribly. He told me his suffering
could only be described as torture.

For Neuralgia,
Neuritis, Lunbago,
Rheumatism
Begy's Mustarine in Yellow Box.
Worth Its Weight in Gold.

If you only knew the quick and
blessed relief Begy's Mustarine gives
to sufferers from swollen, painful,
gnawing, aching, rheumatic joints
and muscles, you would get a box
this very day.
Begy's Mustarine is the good old
fashioned mustard plaster brought
up to date with other ingredients
added and all the blisterihg qualities
taken out.
1t surely does stop neuralgia, neu-
ritis, lumbago and rheumatism quick
er than anything else on earth.
Thousands of people who want
quick action use it when they are
anxious to have chest colds, sore
throat, tonsilitis, pleurisy and deep
seated coughs disappear over night.
Keep it in the house for many
emergencies and especially influenza,
for during the last epidemci Begy s
Mustarine did such valiant service
that the retailers could not supply
the demand.
Heat eases pain, and Begy's Mus
tarine contains twice as much con-
centrated -blistering heat as any
other preparation on the market.
1t cannot blister, remember that,
and be sure to get Begy's Mustarine
in the yellow box.
