People that are known to be weak and sickly, by their neighbors, are asked the question every day whether they are feeling better. Do you feel stronger? Are you gaining flesh? Their friends know if they are gaining flesh, it is one of the sure signs of returning health. If they can only get a remedy that will make solid, healthy flesh, recovery is assured. People with nervous troubles, loss of flesh and strength, no ambition, languid and always tired, have thin atery blood.

Organs are taken out and scraped and polished and put back, or they may be removed entirely ; bones are spliced; pipes take the place of diseased sections of veins ; anti septic dressings are applied to wounds, bruises, burns and like injuries befoie inflammation sets in, which causes them to heal without maturation and in one-third the time required by the old treatment. Chamberlain's Pain Balm acts on this same principle. It is an an tiseptic and when applied to such injur ies, causes them to heal very quickly. It also allay the pain and soreness. Keep a bottle of Pain Balm in your home and it will save you time and money, not to mention the inconvenience and suffering which such injuries entail. For sale by Geo. A. Harding. OS.
