Our daily experience confirms their very super or
excellence. At this mome Mt of writing a man ap-
plies for one, who by, entanglement in the shfat of
machinery, had both his legs broken, spine severely
injured, and for nearly year entirely helpless.
This man found relief very soon by the application
Of plaster to his spine. He was soon enabled to
work and now he labors as well ever. he would
cheerfulIy pay IS for single Plaster if they could
not be had at lower rate: am surprised that
surgeons do not make of the perforated plasters
to the exclusions of all Oths s. their aexibility and
and adhesiveness greatly in advance of all other
plasters with which am acquainted; while the
perforatiOns peculiar to them rendered them greatly
superior TO all others for ordinary surgical uses
Knowilg the plasteIs to be so useful, have no
scruples that my sentiments should be known.
