Postal Card Too Small
Mrs. A. T. Neal, of Maryville, Mo..
Says:
“A postal card is to small to begin my
praise of your wonderful preparation, Par
acamph. My first experience with Para
camph was about one year ago; my little
girl was very badly burned with hot grease
Oue 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 burns were healed up
nicely, although they were very bad burns.
TMy 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 oil, 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 aud find it a great task to
write, but I hope my letter will reach you
in time, as I am a' great friend of Para
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.”
