Any irritating skin disease means this. Tiles mean it. Kc/cuia just as inid, and just as hard lo cure. Hut lman's Ointment does it. Hchevos at one-, and cuivs if you use it lo;ig enough. A blessing to a suffering public. A specitie for any irritation of the skin. llrs .Tonkin. .1 unction Jtoad, nea.' this town, says —"1 had an irritation mi the back of my neck for a lons time. It caused me much pain, which 1 had to endure, as I could get nothing to relieve it. Some months ago I obtained a pot of Doan's Ointment at the Co-operative Store in Ciirric-street, awl I am gfcwi to say that this preparation has given me great relief. Every application stops the pain and irritation at once." Doan's Ointment is splendid in all diseases of the skin-eczema, piles hives, insect bites, sores, chilblains, etc. It is perfectly s\fe ami very effective. Very often two or three pots have made a complete cure of chronic cases which have resisted other remedies for years. Doan's Ointment is sold by all chemists and storekeepers at 3s per pot. or will be posted on receipt of the price by Foster McClellnn Co 76 Pitt Street, Sydney, N..S.W. Remember the name—DOAN'S.
