Postal Card Too Small
Mr*. A. T. Meal, of Maryville, Mo.,
Says:
“A postal card is to small to begin my
praise of your wonderful preparation, Par
acamph. My first experience with Fara
carnph was about one year ago; my little
girl was very badly burned with hot grease
One of my kind neighbors recommended
Paracamph and gave me what she had on
hand, as we live in the country and could
not immediately get it from town. The first
application gave relief. We used about
three bottles and the bums were healed up
nicely, although they were very bad bums.
My little girl was playing and fell knock
ing the grease in her lap; she was burned
on both legs from the knees almost to her
hips, and in removing her clothing a great
deal of the skin came off, leaving her legs
perfectly raw. I have used Paracamph for
a great many things since then, and never
like to be without it in my house. I have
quite a family and find it a great task to
write, but I hope my letter will reach you
in time, as I am a great friend of rara
camph, I could tell you more of its good
works but guess this will be enough for
this time. I am always willing to sound
the praise of a valuable remedy.”
This letter should convince all mothers
of the necessity for keeping in their homes
a bottle of Paracamph. This wonderful
r emedy is needed almost every day in the
year. It not only relieves pain quickly
but it heals all manner of wounds without
leaving ugly scars. Get a bottle of Para
camph today, and if it fails to do what we
claim for it ana ^ you don’t find it is the
most useful remedy you have ever had in
your home, we will refund your money.
