Rub Pain Right Out
With Small Trial
Bottle of Old "St.
v Jacob's Oil"
*
Kidneys cause Backache? Xo! They
have no therefore cannot cause!
pain. Listen! Your backache is caused j
by lumbago, sciatica or a strain, and |
the quickest relief is soothing, pene
trating "St. Jacob's Oil." Rub it right
on your painful back, and instantly the
soreness, stiffness and lameness disap
pears. Don't stay crippled! Get a small
trial bottle of "St. Jacob's Oil" from
your druggist and limber up. A moment
after it is applied you'll wonder what
became of tho backache or lumbago
pain.
Hub old, honest "St. Jacob's Oil"
whenever you have sciatica, neuralgia,
rheumatism or sprains, as it is abso
lutely harmless and doesn't burn the
