BLOOD-POISONING FROM INSECT BITE.

SKIN SPECIALIST'S AND NURSE'S TREATMENT FAILED. ZAM-BUK CURES AFTER FIVE YEARS' MISERY. "Five vcars ago, when on a trip to Queensland, 1 was bitten on the ankle by an insect," says Mrs Millie Watson, of 26 Campbell street, Glebe, Sydney. "This was only a trivial affair, but dve from my stocking got into it. and it develoDccl to a case of blood-poison-ing. Tlie =ore started to fester and spread until it turned into a nasty ulcerous wound, causing me terrible pain. I would twist and turn about ai night on account of the agony, and could get no sleep. I consulted an eminent skin specialist, who treated me with medicine and ointments for two years, but it "was money wasted, for he did me no good. A nurse gave mr- a recipe for a treatment, which 1 tried for twelve months; this was also useless. I then experimented with a great number of ordinary remedies, but instead of getting better the injury seemed to get worse. "At last my sister persuaded mo to give a trial to Zam-Buk. and I am Thankful for her advice, for T purchased a supplv. and regularly dressed the wound with it. Zam-Buk quickly drew out all the inflammation and bad mattor and reduced the size of the ulcer. As I coutinued to bathe the wound night sad morning and apply Zam-Buk. the ulccr gradually grew less, and finally disappeared, the irritation ceased, and ne.v healthy skin grew over the affected part, until finally the wound was completely healed, and left no trace where it had been. • I feel thankful to Zam-Buk for my now healthy condition, which is delightful after 'five years' agony." Zam-Buk is sold by nil stores and chemists at Is (id and 3s (id per pot,
