Mr.. Charles O. Chatterton, writing
from his home at 800 Pawtucket Ave,
Pawtucket, Mass, tells how he started

he used, he says:
at came in time, applied it, and
it did wonders. Had to remain III the
house only two days. l will not be
without it if possible to obtain it."
The liniment was that celebrated
