THE HOME AMBULANCE.
Keep Zam-Buk Always Handy. The mother who keeps a pot of Zam-Buk handy in the house is provided with _ a perfect home ambulance for giving first-aid, when the youngsters or any member of thfl family hurt themselves. Mrs Daley, writing from 384. Quay street, Rockhampton, Q., says: "My little son Douglas fell upon a broken bottle and made a terrible gash on his knee. Really, the wound should have been stitched, as it was open to such an extent that the bone was visible. However, _ thinking I could heal it up, I bathed it well with hot water and applied Zam-Buk. J continued this treatment for about a week, after which time the wound had thoroughly healed. "The next injury of which Douglas was a victim was sustained whilst playing with another littlg boy. His companion threw a tin, which hit him on the right temple and caused a nasty big cut. Remembering Zam-Buk, I again treated the injury with it, and in a very short time the wound was completely better. "Another time I was busy chopping some wood when the axe slipped off the side of the block and hit Douglas on the leg, opening it up with a great gash to the bone. I was glad when, on examination, I found that I had neither fractured the bone nor severed an artery. I again applied ZamBuk to the wound, and bound tip the leg tightly. I continued . the Zam-Buk treatment, and within a fortnight the leg was perfectly healed. I have great faith ; in Zam-Buk for general use in the house. One trial of Zam-Buk always shows that it is a remedy worth keeping handy. ZamBuk nays for shelf-room in the home, and is worth carrying in the pocket when at work. It is so compact, and always ready when wanted. There is nothing better than Zam-Buk for cuts, bruises, burns, scabs, sprains, rashes, Dimples, eczema, ringworm, poisoned sores, ulcers, piles, insect bites, chafings, etc. All druggists and storekeepers sell Zam-Buk at Is 6d or 3s 6d a pot.
