GUN EXPLODED.
RIGHT ARM TERRIBLY MUTILATED.
MIRACULOUS HEALING BY ZAMBUK.
Airs It. A. Bowers, of Madeline Villa, 30 Dudley street, West Perth, W.A., says:— "Some two years ago a gun which my brother was handling exploded, and lodged the contents into my right arm just above tho elbow, mutilating it in a shocking manner. The sinews were shattered, and there was indeed a fearful wound. Medical aid was called in, and the wound was dressed, but some powder and foreign substance must have been left in the injury, for inflammation set in. Then followed eighteen months of intense misery, for in spite of,medical treatment and' the many things which were tried, no benefit wae derived, and the wound obstinately refused to heal. The inflammation was very bod, causing mo intense pain and great hardship. "My general health broke down, and I got very little sleep. 1 used to walk the floor night after night with tho agony of the wound, and in many other ways my life became a misery. Tho wound continued in a raw, painful etatc, and I despaired of ever being fcetter. Just at that time I heard of Zam-Duk, and decided to try it. The first application of this balm created a pleasant surprise. It was both cooling and soothing. As I continued using Zam-Buk tho pain was eased, the burning and irritable sensation subsided, and the healing process begun. Day by day the wound healed, the sinews began to ks.it, and at night I could sleep. I continued using ZainBuk until the wc-und was completely healed, and my arm was well. The q>;ed with which Zam-Buk healed the wound was mnrvelkras."
