A WONDERFUL
HEALER FOR
BURNS
& SCALDS
For taking fiery pain and sort- ness out of burns and scalds, and protecting the raw damaged tissues against germ trouble, Zam-Buk is indispensible. It not only prevents suppuration and blood-poison, but it grows new skin in a wonderful way.
Zam-Buk derives its healing, scolhing and antiseptic virtues solely from rich herbal oils and extracts. It contains neither repulsive animal fats nor poison- ous mineral compounds such as are found in common ointments.
Also for eczema, bad legs, ring- worm, boils, abscesses, piles, ulcers, etc.. Zam-Buk is the soathing powerful remedy. DOCTOR CIES ZAM-BUM, Vr Marine harmita Ganguly, L.M .. 8.
