Relieved In Minutes
Exclusive Healing Substance
Relieves Pain As It
Shrinks Hemorrhoids.
If you want satisfactory relief from
'Itching Piles'-here's good news.
A renowned research laboratory has
found a unique healing substance
that promptly relieves the burning
itch and pain-actually shrinks
hemorrhoids. This substance has
been shown to produce a most effec-
tive rate of healing. Its germ-killing
properties also help prevent
infection.
In case after case "very striking
improvement" was noted, even
among cases of long standing. And
this improvement was maintained
over a period of months!
This was accomplished by a new
healing substance (I3io-Dyne)-
width quickly helps heal injured
cells and stimulate growth of new
tissue. Now Bio-Dyne is offered in
ointment and suppository form
called Preparation "H". Ask for it )
at all drug stores-satisfaction. or
money refunded.
