THE BEST PLASTER.
Dampen a piece of flannel with Cham
berlain's Fain Balm and bind it over the
seat of pain. It is better than any plas
ter. When the lungs are sore such an
application on the chest and another on
the back, between the shoulder blades,
will often prevent pneumonia. There is
nothing to good for a lame back or a
pain in the side. A eore throat can near
ly always be cured in one night by ap
plying a flannel bandage dampened with
Pain Balm. 50c bottles for sale by E. F.

Waterbury is quite a city, for here are

sell them reasonable.
