cold which settled all over me. The
pain in my chest and side was excruci-

and blistered my side, but I only grew
worse. Then you gave me a bottle of
Brazilian Balm. I had little or no faith
in it, but decided to try it. I tool; 3 or
4 good doses before bed time, and rubbed
it well over my blistered side. That
night I slept like a top—my first good
rest for over a week—and awoke in the
morning cured. Brazilian Balm is sim-
