Caption

...Because it cures Burns and Scalds, and leaves no scar. Because it will cure a felon quicker than anything else known. Because it gives relief at once, and always cures the Piles. Because by it the agony of Corns and Bunions is relieved immediately. Because it will make Chapped Hands smooth in a night.
