We hereby certify that we have used in our
/ families, for several years, "Waterman's Spe-
cifc Plaster" In the fall of the year in 1880,
our father, Caleb Atwood, was taken sick Of a
bilious fever. When the fever left him, or soon
after, his feet and legs became very much in
famed and swollen, with sores, so that he was
unable 10 walk, though otherwise apparently
well. lie had been in this condition, under the
charge of an eminent physician who attended
him regularly, for nearly two months, and OBJ
tnined no relief, when he was advised to make
use Of "Waternan's Specific Plaster" He did
so-and 10 two weeks effected complete cure.
Tie was then about 30 years Of age. lie died
about three years afterwards.
\ We were so well satisfied in the case above
referred to, that we kept the plaster by us ever
since, have used il in variety Of cases, and
been fully satisfied Of its beneficial effects We
therefore feel free TO recommend it 10 others 40
the best remedy for the diseases mentioned in
the directions accompanying each box Of, said
Plaster. DANIEL ATWOOD
