MASTER OF PAIN.
THE: (.ITKIT EXTERNAL KEHEDV,
For Spratns anil Bruises, Burns and Scalds,
Rheumatic and .Yeuralgic Pains, Swel- ■
lings, Stiff Joints, Paralysis, or
jnumbness of the Limbs, Pains
in the Breast, Side or Back;
Sore Throat, Tooth Jlche,
Frosted Feel, Sfc , ftc.,
jUi d fur the Belief
of Pain Anywhere
and Everywhere.
This is a most perfect preparation, and seldom
fails to dogood. It is harmless in its effects but
powerful t<> relieve Pain. If you use it once yon
will not likely be without it again. You will find it
a constant household frieud, giving ease and relief
just when needed. Keep it constantly on hand
and it will save you many hours of paiu and suf
fering. There is hardly a pain it will not easa.—
There is hardly an accident that will occur where
it will not be useful.
Should one of your family get burned or scald
ed, cover the burned part wifh a cloth of several
thicknesses wet with the "Master of Pain," and
keep the cloth saturated with it. In a short time
it will draw ail the fire out. It will cause a pri -'i
ling seusatiou—this is the fire coming out. Keep
it wet with the "Master of Pain" until the paiu
and prickling ceases. Let the wet cloth stay on
for six or tight hours, after which apply some
healing ointment or sweet oil. In nearly all cases
of Pain or Soreness of the Chest, Throat, Side,
Back, Spine, Limbs or Joints, it will give relief.—
Rub it on freely with the hand or with a flannel
cloth until the skin becomes heated and burning.
For soreness of the throat rub it on until it pro
duces a little soreness.
For Croup use it in connection with the Cough
Syrup, by rubbing it ou the chest.
For Rheumatism and all deep seated pains, if
the pain is not speedily removed by rubbing with
the hand, lay a cloth wet with the liquid over tile
part atiected, and pass a warm smoothing iron-over
it.
For Pains in the Breast, Side or Back, the same
may be done.
For Tooth-ache, drop it on cotton, and apply it
to the nerve of the tooth, also rub the gums and
cheeks with it.
For Frosted Feet, apply the "Master of Pain"
freely, and dry it in before the fire.
For Head ache rub it on the forehead.
It is called "Master of Pain." I did not give it
this name—l don't like the name. When I first
commenced making it it was without uame or label.
I made it and sold it by the ounce at my Drug
Store. 1 had no idea then of making a business
of it. w h° bought it called it Master of
Pain, and by this na.'Ue it became known for many
miles round. And finally, When I had a laLit'-l
priuted I was compelled to adopt the name, for by
that name it was known. After all, the name is
not so very inappropriate. It Is used to alleviate
or remove pain. It is put on wherever there is
pain. Sometines it will cause pain, but the result
always is freedom from pain.
Reader—try it—take a bottle with you—use it
whenever occasion requires- give it a "fair trial.

in my family and also on one occasion myself
when worn by frequent preaching, and with the
happiest results.
SAMUEL TINGLING.
BEDFORD NOV. 3, 1860.
W. E. Sn nIN KR —SIR : As you are about to intro
duce your Balsamic Cough Syrup into our County.
I will give you my experience with it, which you
are at liberty to use it you think proper, some
two years ago a box that was lost on the Pennsyl
vania Central R. R. found its way to my store. I
opened the box and found it to contain your Balsa
mic Cough Syrup. I had never heard of it at that
time but a Mr. Aughinbaugh from your state hap
pened to be present and said it was < ne of the best
cough remedies in use and happening to need a
caugh medicine in my family I determined to give
it a trial, and so well pleased was I with its effects
that I gave bottles of it to my friends all of whom
agree with me in pronouncing it the best cough
remedy they have ever met with. We have used it
for Coughs, Colds, Croup and Whooping Cough,
and in every case it gave the most signal relief.—
Yours truly,
ADAM FEKQUSON.

refered to by Mr. Ferguson, and fully concur in
