harmless aud doesn't buru or discolor the skin. Limber up! Don’t suffer! Get a small trial bottle from any drug store, and after using it just once, you'll forget that you ever had backache, lumbago or sciatica, because your back will never hurt or cause any more misery. It never disappoints and has been recommended for sixty years.
