FESTERED, INFLAMED ARM. ZAM-BUK STOPS ALL PAIN AND PROVES A QUICK, PERFECT HEALER " . Tho' wonderful power of Zain-Buk to quickly and perfectly heal even obstinate festering sores ami abbesses is strikingly illustrated by the case of Miss Ihiby JJavison, of 93 Wilton Street, licdfern, Sydney, -who Bays:—"A few weeks ago a bad abscess began to form on my arm, which swelled up. enormously. Awful throbbing pains shot up the limb and I began to be alarmed, for poulticing only seomed to make the sore worse. I was off work for a month, and was so helpless that I couldn't even move tho ana. The pain was terrible.

"Whilst I, was in this state I read about Zam-Buk, and resolved to try a pot. I applied tho balm night and morning with gratifying results. ZamBuk quickly reduced the swelling mid soothed tho terrible pains.

"At the time when I started to use Zam-Buk the inflammation had extended right up under the arm, but a few dressings of tho balm cleared all this away. As I kept on with Zam-Buk it drow out all the pus and bad matter, and thoroughly cleansed tlio bad place. "Thou the sore itself began to heal up rapidly, and now, tlianjjs to this perseverance with Zam-Buk, my arm is quite well again, whilo no traco of the sore is to be seon," Zam-Buk acts on. Ibe skin in a purely natural way. It banishes eczema, ulcers, bad legs, and scalp disease; soothes away swelling, inflammation or soreness; purifies and lieals poisoned sores, blotches, rashes, pimples, spots, and itching skintroubles.
