MENT, formerly Judkins'
When first made and prepared this Ointment, and
had in several instances experienced its good effects,
sent it TO several ply sicans with instructions in what
cases to apply it, who of opinion that the ONT
ment would be valuable public benefit. concluded
that the Ointment would occasionally fail INTO many
hands, some of whom would probably undertake 10
max it. and knowing the difficulty of the process-ne
vertheess it might be progated in this ad"tera'ed 81
tuation as it might in degree resemble the orig
nsl-and in this way it's good effects would be obItera'
