The Trainer of the Rangers Football Team writes:

"Sir,—I use HERBULINE extensively, and find it of great value. I have never been disappointed in my results from using it. It is superior to any preparation I have hitherto tried, and I strongly advise those in want of a safe, reliable liniment to give it a trial.—I am, yours respectfully,

"Ibrox, February 6th, 1890.
JOHN TAYLOR."


Neuralgia and Tic cured by HERBULINE in 20 Minutes.
Lumbago " " " 24 Hours.
Toothache " " " Momentary.
Cold Feet " " " 5 Minutes.
Rheumatism " " " 24 Hours.

HERBULINE is superior to Mustard for Poulticing. Salient points—clean, easily applied, a more endurable heat. No liability to chill after using. It is a wonder to those who use it, and never disappoints in its results.
