to Science has such a won- derful curative influence on injured or diseased skin Zam-Buk. Like the secret balms of Ancient Rome, Zam-Buk is prepared solely from rara herbal oils indessences. These, relined, concen- trated and blended together under the direction of highly-skilled chemists, en- sure a balm of absolute purity.
Zam-Buk is entirely free from the ani- rual fats found la common cintmente and salves. When Zam-Buk is applied to the skin, festering is stopped, infiam- mation and irritation allayed, and sores and captions disappear as hy magle.
There are scores of common afflic tiona like eczema, polsoned wounds, Delhi woren, bad lega, diseased ankles, Julcers, barne, scalda, bites and foot sores which need Zam-Buk to draw out corruption and grow new skin. Also disfiguring ringworm, itch, scalp sores, and that distressing ailment pites. All are soothed, relieved and speedily cured by the application of Zam-Buk.
