SCALP SORES FOR 10 YEARS. NEARLY WENT MAD WITH PAIN. —ZAMBUIv CURED AFTER ALL ORDINARY OINTMENTS FAILED. Mrs E. W. Goodman, of 279, Fitzgerald Street, North Perth, W.A., says: " For ten years I was tortured by a violent form of scalp eczema, which was first caused hv chemicals I had used for improving the hair. This stuff set up irritation, which developed into a form of dandruff, and the itching was so bad that I could not keep my hands oft. More complications set in, and my scalp got very sore and broke out into a state of dry eczema. This disease spread in patches to different places, and the irritation was so intense as to give a sensation as if the whole of the scalp was shifting. I could not get any sleep at night ror the way I would tear at my head. The disease so worried me that I could not eat, and became seriously run down in health. "During these years I tried everything 1 could get hold of—ointments, salves, powders and soaps—and even had medical attention, but I got not tho slightest relief. The awful irritation and itching made me scratch and scratch, and I nearly went mad with pain. I had nearly despaired of ever getting better, when Zam-Buk was brought to rny notice. I purchased a supply and treated ray head with it. Zam-Buk immediately allayed the irritation and gave me great relief. After using this balm for a short time the sores began to dry up and heal nicely. The pain was not so ba-d, and 1 was able to get rest at. night. I persevered with Zam-Buk until all disease was banished from my scalp, and I was completely rid of the terrible eczema."

A pot of Zam-Buk, the ever-ready liealing balm, siiould be kept handy in every home. It is a sure, remedy' for al] skin diseases and injuries. Sold by all stores and chemists, Is 6d and 3s fid per pot. 2
