BEWARE OF IMPOSITION.

IMPOSITION having been practised upon the
L public, by a spurious article bearing the name OF
''Judkins Ointment" the proprietor, u HERS
TONS, recommends the following communication:
Some years back, Nathan Shepherd informed the
public in the newspapers, that he the original
dscoverer of Judkins' Ointment, and had taken out
a new patent thereon in his own name; having in
the first instance assigned reason for so doing,
'tthat MANY persons would try to make it, and
would not be able, and the ointment be propagated
in this adulterated state in some degree resembling
the genuine ointment" AS complaints have been
made repeatedly Oft this being the case to the sub
scrber, who is still legally concerned, it is due to
the public that they should be cautioned this
head. C. HERSTONS.
Here follows few of the many instances disclos-
ing the fact of spurious artcle:-
Baltimore, October 90, 1914.
Mn. G. HERsToNs-last winter l received
small wound in one of my feet-it became neces-
sary to apply something to heal it sent to a
Druggist for pot of Judkin's ointment, but unfor-
tunately the article obtained was spurious. In
using it my foot kept getting and worse until
! became incapable of attending to bust ess-w
confined to bed, and had to send for Physician.
I was seriously alarmed, such was the state was
jim from the use ofthis ointment, and had not got
relief might have been ruined. Fortunately, how
ever, friend called to see me and brought with
him pot Of ointment which find is prepared by
you, now called Shepherds Patent Specific ONT
ment. On applying the first plaster alteration
in few hours took place-the wound soon became
in a state of amendment, and it effected perfect
cure. From delicacy, forebear to mention the
name of the Druggist from whom bought the spu-
riour ointment, but think the public ought to be
made acquainted with The fact. The one deem
very valuable the other ought to be discountenanc-
