TRIUMPHS OF MODERN SURGREY.
Wonderful things are done for the hu
man body by surgery. 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; antiseptic
dressings are applied to wounds, bruises,
burns and like injuries before inflamma
tion 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 antiseptic and
when applied to such injuries, causes
them to heal very quickly. It also allavs
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 Wight &
Browne.
