BOILS AND CAIUJUNCLES Boils begin as little pimples. If Dr. Sheldon's Magnetic Liniment is well rubbed in at this time, they will disappear, and give yon, no further trouble. If a boil is dovoloped blood and matter must lie squeezed out, and the wound dressed with Dr. Sheldon's Magnetic Liniment. Persons suffering from boils should rub the | parts affected thoroughly twice a day with Dr. Sheldon's Magnetic Liniment. This will prevent the growth of a whole crop of boils. Obtainable at. H. E.
