SCALDED FEET AND ULCER ON SHIN

TOES QUITE RAW. FLESH

EATEN TO BONE,

GRAND DOUBLE) CURE BY ZAM-

BUK

"Whilst I was pouring boiling water into the teapot," says Mrs A. Quinn, 30 Duke Street, East Sydney, N.S.W., "the bottom came out, and the hot liquid went all over my feet scalding them in a shocking manner. I suffered dreadfully from tiie ter- j rible pain. Large blisters formed, and when they burst, left the surfaces of my feet red raw. Having Zam-Buk at hand I quickly applied i it. .

"Zam-Buk took out the terrible heat from the wounds, and allayed the inflammation, besides proving most soothing and cooling. The balm then set up rapid healing, and in a short time my feet were completely better.

"Some 8 months ago, I knocked my left shin. Dye getting into the injury set up festering, and my leg became greatly inflamed. The flesh was eaten away to the bone, and inflammation extended right up to my knee. Sleep was out of the question. In fact at night I used to toss about in agony, then get up and walk the floor, which only made the awful smarting worse. Happily I commenced to use Zam-Buk on the wound, which gave me considerable relief. Zam-Buk stopped the terrible itching and shooting pains at once, drew out the poison, ' and cleansed the wound on my shin. Continuing with the treatment my leg healed splendidly and is now quite well. So I have great faith in ZamBuk."

Zam-Buk, unsurpassed for banishing skin and scalp diseases, and quickly healing cuts, sores, and flesh wounds, is obtainable of all chemists and. stores at Is 6d and 3s 6d per pot.

A letter from the Poverty Bay Teachers' Institute was received at last week's meeting of the Hawke's Bay Education Board, approving of the Board's decision to demand from all its teachers loyal support of the Empire. The Institute was further of opinion that any person who was not loyal was not fit to be in charge of children. In this connection suggestions received from the National Efficiency Board, urging that patriotic sentiment should be inculcated in school children, were referred to the Board's inspectors for recommendations as to carrying out the suggestions.

Life is real and life is earnest in the backblocks. In one of the remote settlements of Taranaki a travelling picture sho*v arrived recently, and tho 17-year-old son and heir of a leading landowner approached his dad an application for sixpence. "What do you want with sixpence?" said his father, sternly. "I want to go to the pictures, dad," said the youngster. "Well, you're not going," said tho firm parent. "It is only a few months ago that I let you go to the top of the hill to see tho eclipse of the moon. D'ye think life's one long round of gaiety and gadding about?"
