"I wish to
say that I
have used
Sloan's Lini
ment on a
lame Teg that
has given me much trouble for six
months. It was so bad that I
couldn't walk sometimes for a1
week. I tried doctors' medicine
and had a rubber bandage for my
'
leg , and bought everything that I'
heard of , but they aft did me no
good , until at last I was persuaded
to try Sloan's Liniment. The first
application helped it , and in two
weeks vriy leg was well. " A. L.

with great success in cases of ex
treme fatigue after physical exer
tion , when an ordinary rub-down
would not make any impression. "
