Minn.," was tortured by sciatica. The
pain and suffering which he endored
during this time is beyond comprehen

Pain Balm. One application of that
liniment relieved the pain and made
sleep and rest possible and less than
one bottle has effected a permanent
cure. Mr. Massey related his experience
for the benefit of others who may be'
similarly aftlisted. If troubled with
sciatic or rheumatism why not try a

debts. Restore our property to us."

stage to defend Dowie from th e rush
these heated remarks brought out and
