POISONED BY A THORN SCRATCH

ADVISED AMPUTATION' OF INFLAMED ARM. SENSATIONAL ZAM-BUK HEALING. What serious trouble can result from a simple scratch is shown bv the experience of Mrs Catherine Bolton, of 45 Upper street, Newton, Auckland. N.Z. "Some time <igo," she said. "1 got a thorn in the middle finger of my right hand. Soon afterwards inflammation and blood-poison started, and spread so rapidly_that mv arm became affected right up to the shoulder. "I was in such intense pain and agony that the doctor was sent for, but as soon as he saw the arm he- said it was so had that amputation would ibo the only .remedy. My relations would not hear of this, and for two months the dreadful suffering continued.. "I could not deep at night, and. the only way to kill the pain was, I found, to plunge the limb into water that was almost boiling. But this sort of relief was only temporary. Then one day I beard about ZamBuks remarkable healing power, and decided to test it. The balm proved remarkably soothing, the first few dressing bringing immediate ease from pain. °I was so gratified with this result that I went on regularly using Zam-Buk, and soon a lot ofbad matter came away, while the inflammation was greatlv reduced. Eventually Zam-Buk thoroughly cleansed the limb of poison and perfectly healed it, and it has never caused me the slightest trouble since.

"Zam-Buk also cured me of a nasty outbreak of face rash. 1 applied the bairn every night to the affected surface, and it Boon cleared away every eruption. On many other occasions I have- ■used ZasaUuk and found it invaluable." Obtainable of all chemists sod storea at Is M and, §s fid. par jjet.-dAdriJ
