Barbed Wire Antiseptic -
A New Discovery.
The PARIS MEDICINE COMPANY, 2622-30 Pine St., St. Louis, Mo.
manufacturers of LAXATIVE BROMO QUININE and other standard prep
arations have a new discovery that far surpasses anything ever placed on the
market for barbed wire cuts, bums and old sores.
When Marconi stated that he could send messages across the ocean with
out a wire or cable, the world did not believe it; if we were to tell you that
Dr. Porter’s Antiseptic Healing Oil
will cure a barbed wire cut in one day, will absolutely relieve the pain of a
hum instantly and will cure old sores which other remedies have failed to
cure, you would not believe it; therefore we have instructed all Druggists to
refund the money to purchasers in every case where it fails to d& all we claim
for it.
We Mean It
It is needed in every home. When any of the family are severely burn
ed or cut, or a horse is badly injured on the wire fence you haven’t time to
send to town for a remedy, but you need it at once; therefore do not delay to
purchase a 25c package under our positive guarantee.
A Cut Never Matters, or Suppurates, after it is once applied.
It not only relieves the pain of a bum instantly, but will take out all in
flammation and soreness in one day.
It will-cure granulated eye-lids and old chronic sores, no matter of how
long standing. It is just as valuable for household use as it is for stock.
