Because it offers truly better way to

Important Medical Discovery
Science Shrinks Piles
New Way Without Surgery
Stops Itch Relieves Pain
Preparation Ho-The Only Hemorrhodal Remedy In World
That Contains New Healing Substance.
Every Claim Verified By Doctors
and Proved By d Leading Clinics.

For the first time science has
found new healing substance with
the astonishing ability to shrink
hemorrhoids, stop burning rectal
itch and relieve pain = without sur
gerry or painful injections.
In one hemorrhoid case after
another prompt relief was reported
also striking improvement in
from 2 to A days. These reports were
verified by a doctors observations
and proved by four leading clinics.
Pain and itching were promptly
relieved. And while gently relieving
this distress - actual reduction
(shrinking) of hemorrhoids took
place. Most amazing of all this
improvement was maintained in
cases where doctors observations
were continued over a period Of
many months
In fact, results were so thorough
that sufferers were able to make
such astounding statements as
"Piles have ceased to be a problem"
And among these sufferers were a
wide variety of hemorrhoid condi-
tions some of 10to20years' standing.
All this was accomplished at home
without surgery, injections, mar

tute. This new healing substance is
offered in ointment or convenient
suppositoryform called Preparation
H. And Preparation H is the only
hemorrhoidal remedy in the world
containing this truly magical heal
ing substance.
Magic Healing Power
Discovered By Accident
Like many great discoveries-the
effectiveness of Preparation H was
also discovered quite by accident.
In the laboratories of a famous
research institution in Cincinnati,
Ohio-renoWned scientists were
conducting advanced medical tests.
During an ether-extracting pro-
cedure, there was asuddep explosion.
An assistant was severely burned.
AS an emergency measure, large
quantities Of an ointment (still
in an experimental stage) were
smeared on. To everyone's amaze
ment-pain ceased Immediately and,
the skin healed remarkably fast
without soaring.
Later tests revealed this ointment
was full of new substance which
has the astonishing power to heal
injured skin. This substance was
then scientifically combined with
other effective medical ingredients
into product called Preparation H.
And here's why this remarkable

hemorrhoid remedy is so successful
Preparation H promptly relieves
pain and burning rectal itch.
Shrinks hemorrhoids without sur
gerry. Heals injured tissue back to
normal and helps prevent infection
of hemorrhoids.
Every claim made for Prepara-
tion H has been verified by doctors.
This is the only hemorrhoidal rem
edy containing Bio-Dyne. Just ask
