HISTORY tells us that the fighting Gladiators of

ancient Rome, healed their wounds and sores with precious herbal oils and balmis, which are said to have knitted the damaged tissues together in miraculous fashion.

Though the highly prized secrets of those precious healers "were lost with the fall of Rome itself, the in- troduction of the great herbal balm, Zam-Buk, has furnished their true successor. It is so marvellously. like them in its origin and in its effect.

The

touch of Zam-Buk is to-day known the world over. Wherever there is a cut, burn or scald, a festering or poisoned sore, a patch of eczema, pimples or "rash, Zam-Buk ends the trouble once and for all;

the same with ulcers, ringworm and piles.

Zam-Buk contains No Trace Of Animal Fat or Mineral Poison. Every ingredient in Zam-Buk is scientifically tested in the chemists' laboratory before the pare rich herbal essences, are refined, and blended together in special silver-lined vessels. Never at any time during the process of manufacture, is Zam-Buk touched by human hands.

Mr. Austin Hopkinson, M.P, told an extraordinary story of the House of Commons in an address to the members of the Audenshaw Y.M.C.A.

He said that in the House of Commons one is expected to occupy a certain amount of time, but it did not matter whether one really said anything or not,

Some time ago Mr. Asquith was, the chief guest at a dinner in the House of Commons, and was expected. to make adj important speech. But owing to frequent divisions interrupting the after-dipner speeches a member of the Government came to him (Mr. Hopkinson) and asked him if he could speak for 45 minutes. Mr. Hopkinson replied that, of course, be could, Kitasked why, as this was the first time anybody had asked him to do such a thing. The member of the Government
