INFLAMED WOUND ON ANKLE.

Aggravated by Neglect and Poison from Paint-can, Rescued by Zam-Bnk from Dangerous Complications. “ Some time ago I had the misfortune to injure rny ankle with the rough edge of a paint tin,” says Mr T. Williams, of Forwood, Brisbane. “ The wound became wild and inflamed, and I tried 'ordinary household remedies, including lard, but the place refused to heal. Then I neglected the sore, and it began to fester and spread. The pain was intense, and the condition of my ankle became very serious. For nine months I was in a sad way, and suffered awfully. About that time I decided to dress the wound with Zam-Buk, as we had a supply in the house. “ Zam-Buk gave me considerable ease, tho inflammation was chocked, and all bad matter drawn out. I continued using Zam-Buk, and in a week or two after the first a] plication the sore was quite healed, leaving no trace of tho accident. “ Since that time I have used Zam-Buk balm on many occasions, always with good results. At my occupation as a butcher I am subject to cuts and knocks, and always keep a supply of Zam-Buk handy.” Too much stress cannot bo laid on the grave dangers of neglecting any scratch or cut. Once disease germs enter a wound serious complications may arise, and many instances are on record where such carelessness has resulted in the loss of a limb. Tho best safeguard against blood-poison and festering is the timely application of Zam-Buk, a balm possessing extraordinary healing merit and free from all trace of rancid animal fat. Zam-Buk is invaluable for eczema, piles, ringworm, ulcers, bad legs, sores, old wounds, diseased ankles, blood-poieon, cracked skin, sore feet, scabs, itch, sore heads, cute, burns, bruises, scalds, etc. Sold by all chemistn and stores, or post free direct from tho Zam-Buk 00., 39 Pitt street, Sydney.
