PILES!

Only those who suffer from piles know the misery it brings! It robs life of its, pleasures, steals the bright- ness from existence, and substitutes days of dull pain and periods of acute agony,

That grand herbal healer ZAM-BUK is unequalled for its power to end the pain, bleeding, swelling and inflammation associated with piles. Zam-Buk not only soothes, heals and comforts the worn-out sufferer, but it cures permanently. Lose no time in giving this world- famed balm a thorough trial, !

Zam-Buk also possesses marvellous curative virtues in such-skin-discases as eczema, itch, prickly heat, ulcers, poisoned sores, etc., also speedily soothing and healing. for cuts, bruises, burns, scalds,, insect bites, etc. CURES WHEN OPERATION FAILS

Mr. W. A. Coe, of Ixworth, Suffolk, England, writes:"During the thirteen years I was in the. British Navy 1 suffer- ed terrible katere through piles. They were at their worst the three years I was on the China nail Inilles stačias oor The The result Burges bad to operate wasn't a success atil, when discharged from the Navy I was suil suffering

Then head about the great lienling power of Zumn-1ck and sent for a box.

I derived aneh instaut relief from Zatn-Bak that I needed no persuasion to continue ise treatment. Gradually. the inflammation and shooting paina became less troublesome and is burn ing irritation passed away altogether. Now, thanks to Zam-Buk, the piles have been completely banished."
