Liniment, and applied it without our knowledge .
A few days ago, he called our attention to th

he had eflected so remarkable a cure ; he repliei

I have used the Mexican Mustang Liniment
for some time in my stable upon my horses in cas
es of Sprains, Bruises, Galls. Strains, and Sores of
different kinds, incident to a large number of hor
ses I used it upeu a horse which had been saddle
galled for nearly a year. 1 had tried many reme
dies, and one iu particular, that 1 had been in the
habit of using for years, and had generally proved
successful. Nothing appeared to give it any reli- f
until I tried the MUSTANG LINIMENT, whicl
cured it in a very short time. I consider it an in
valuable remedv, and would not be without it.

it was real 'jumping tooth-ache," but soon th'
whole side of the face and jaw become swollen ano
inflamed, and the pain was most excruciating. In
this condition he came into the store a few day
ago, with his hands convu sively pressing his cheek.
and his features very much distorted into exprcs
sions of great agony. We immediately applied the
Mustang Liniment and gave him a bottle to continue
its use, I his morning he called with sialics oi
pleasure and feelings of gratitude illuminating
his countenance, to say that the Liniment gave him
almost instant relief, and had effected a perteci
cure. Comments are unuescessary. Facts speak

contain three times as much as the 25 cent bottle.
and the $1 bottle contains three times as much a:

buying the large bottles.

Its most important advantages over tne old sys
tem arc
1. It saves the expense of milk, eggs, shortening,
spoiled bread, and the trouble and expense of pro
curing good yeast-water only being necessary.
2. No tinieisrequiicd tor the dough to rise Deiore
baking ; consequently bread may be made in a few
minutes.
3. A cook can always depends upon having light.
sweet, tender and palaUble nreau anu oiscuit,
whether the flour be of the best quality or not.
4 Bread made by this process is much more nu
tritious, easier ot digestion, better nuea ior a
weak stomach, sweeter, whiter and lighter, than
when made with yeast.
5. The bread made by fermentation does no af
ford the same amount of nourishment to the ys
tem, that it does when made with this compound ;
because the vegetable acid contained in ternienteu
bread, prevents the proper action ot the gastric fluid
upon it, and consequently, a part only goes to nour
ish the body, while the acids tend to produce dys
