- 2.s1,!s.E:,....zzG
I IMPOSITION having been practised upon the
Il public, by spurious article bearing the name OF
'Judkins' Ointment the proprietor, c. HERS
TONS, recommends the following communication:
Some years back, Nathan Shepherd Informed the
public in the newspapers, that he was the original
dscoverer OF Judkins Ointment, and had taken out
a new patent thereon in his name; having IN
the first instance assigned reason for so doing,
THAT many persons would try to make it, and
would not be able, and the ointment be propagated
IN this aduterated state, in some degree resembling
the genuine olntment."-As complaints have been
made repeatedly of this being the case to the SUBJ
Scrber, who is still legally concerned it is due to
tpe puo1lc mat they should be cautioned this
mead. c. HERSTONS.
Here follows few of the many instances disclos-
ing the fact of spurious article:-

ment. On applying the first plaster an 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-
rour ointment, but think the public ought to be
made acquainted with The fact. The one deem
