BLOOD-POISON AFTER SIMPLE MISHAP.

NAIL-SCRATCH CAUSED BADLY FESTERED HAND. ZAM-BUK SAVES EXPENSE AND PATX. .Scratching liis liaml against a rust} 7 nail and neglecting the injury brought disaster to Mr Robert Wilson, ami nothing but Zam-Buk could relieve his pain or overcome the nasty festering and inflammation. Mr Wilson, who lives at Green Lane, Rcmeura, Auckland, New Zealand, says: "For a long time I suffered from a badly poisoned hand, caused by the palm becoming scratched by a . rusty nail. I thought little of the injury at first, but within a day or two I began -to be aware that my neglect had landed me into serious trouble. "The injured place got hot and throbbing and began to fester, and the hand swelled up to such an extent that I feared the inflammation was going to spread into my arm, too. I went to the chemist, who supplied me with a lotion for the wound, but instead of bringing me relief it caused the hand to become decidedly worse, and I began to have grave concern as to how the matter would end up. "I had decided to call in a doctor, when a neighbour brought us a pot of Zam-Buk for me to try. I decided to use this before going to any further expense, and the result fully justified my neighbour's good opinion of Zam-Buk. Even the first dressings of the balm brought me remarkable ease by soothing the pain and cooling the hot wound. I was so relieved that I got another pot and kept on applying regular dressings of .Zam-Buk. Before this second pot was finished all the festering and swelling had completely disappeared, and'the injury was healed up perfectly. Now the hand is quite stronjg and sound again. Zam-Buk Las proved uniquely successful in the treatment of itching eczema, bad legs, ulcers, piles, festering wounds, scalp sores, ringworm, scaly patches and skin diseases and injuries. Of all chemists and storekeepers at Is 6d and 3s 6d per pot.
