OUCH! LUMBAGO
 RUB PAINS FROM
 AN ACHING BACK

Back hurts you? Cant straighten up without sudden pain, sharp aches and twinges? Now listen! That's lumbago. sciatica, or maybe from a strain, and you'n get relief the moment you rub your back with soothing, penetrating St. Jacobs oil. Nothing else takes out soreness, lameness and stiffness so quickly, You simply rub it on your back. and out comes the pain. It is harmless, and doesn't burn tho skin.
 Bimber up! Don't suffer! Get a small trial bottle of old. honest St. Jacobs oil from any drug store, and after using it just once you'll forget that you ever had backache, lumbago or sciatica, because you back will never hurt, or cause any more misery. It never disappoints, and has been recommended for 60 years.

FRENCH SAYING |

Once upon a time there lived a Merchant in a small city. He handled good mer- chandise, and sold his wares at a fair profit. All in all, he was a fine man.
 One of his customers bought a certain article. No sooner she used it, the arti- cle became useless.
 She went back to the mer- chant and told him about it. He put on his "Specs," diag- nosed the lease" thoroughly and then told her why that article became useless, etc.
 The result was he lost a perfectly good customer.
 Had ID. & L." been that merchant, they would imme- diately give that woman an other article, or her money back.
 That's the ID. < L." way of doing Business. That's why ID. & L." hold on to their growing army of Pa irons.
