NEGLECT OF A SCRATCH.

CAUSED THREE MONTHS’ BLOOD POISON. Moral—Use Zam-Buk Promptly. The peril to guard against in everyday skin injuries is germ infection. Trivial cuts, scratches, insect bites, etc., are always liable to become poisoned and inflated unless promptly dressed with Zam-Buk. “ Dye got into a simple scratch on my hand and poisoned it,” writes Mrs F. Walters, 214, Bathurst Street, Hobart, Tasmania. “ Tlie resulting sore proved so serious that the first finger on my right hand was threatened with amputation. The poison spread; my arm turned black and swelled right up to the annpit. Though for three months I was nearly driven mad with pain, I refused to entertain the idea of amputation. “ It was on a friend’s recommendation that I began to use Zam-Buk. From the very first application it brought wonderful ease, and it took out all the burning throbbing pain. As 1 kept up the Zam-Buk dressings, all swelling and inflammation, too, were overcome, and my arm and hand went back to normal size. It was entirely due to Zam-Buk that, the terrible poisoned sore was splendidly healed.” For obstinate skin diseases, such as eczema, ringworm, or for ulcers, wounds, burns, abscesses, piles, etc., Zam-Buk is absolutely unrivalled, Is 6d or 3s 6d, all dealers. 4
