I procured a supply and before I had finished the first pot I was .freed from all irritation, and the pains were gradually ceasing. ' After ' continuing with Zam-Buk, all traces of my complaint wero removed. :■ ; "Sorno time afterwards' I was confined, and a result of childbirth was an attack of piles. However, a fow applications of the Zam-Buk drove away my trouble. I was, delighted with ,tho mild and soothing'action, of Zam-Buk. It cases all inflammation in a splendid fashion. "Zam-Buk should bo kept handy in every home, especially where thero aro .children in tho family. My. children at times .suffer from cuts, sores; and abrasions,- and the prompt application' vof Zam-Buk has given relief in each case." Zam-Buk .is sold by air stores and chemists at Is. 6d.'and 3s.
