Enclosed in the box is a "guide Book" which will give every explanation respecting the medicine, Much depends upon following faithfully the directions. Bathing with cold water & sponge every morning. Rub the painful points of body freely with the Liniment at night and then lay a wet cloth over chest & stomach cover well with dry ones to promote perspiration these must remain on all night.
