The Most Remarkable Remedy Ever discovered

BENsoN's cAPoINE POROUS PLASTER.
At no time In the history OF true medicine has
an article appeared which has met with greater
approval and success than Benson's Cspcine
Plaster. why they are preferred to all other
porous plasters is owing to their improved CON-
positions athey act instantaneously, cure speedily
ard effectually.
Physicians and the general public who acknowl-
edge the great benefits derived from the use Of
the ordinary porous plaster, however, maintain
that their action is not sufficiently prompt, re-
quiring time, patience and continuous wear TO
effect cure. Benson's Capcine Plaster over
comes this difficulty by accomplishing in q few
hours that which It takes any other plaster as
many days.
Although recent discovery, Capcine has been
thoroughly tested by physicians, and In each In
stance has been pronounced the most remarkable,
safe. certain and thoroughly efhcacious remedy
ever discovered.
Incorporating Capcine in an improved Porous
Plaster has been accomplished after repeated So
hcltations from the medical fraternity, and Is
now prescribed by them with unprecedented sue
cess; especially in rheumatism, pleurisy. stub
born colds, kidney complaints ard all diseases
for which porous plaster has been used.
Its marvellous influence over the circulation
and general effect on the system is almost fncred
ible; from The moment Of It's application to the
affected part 1t operates with astonishing vigor-
known plaster, liniment or compound.
Il Is q genuine pharmaceutical preparation Of
the highest order Of merit; its Ingredients
tirely vegetable and free from mineral or metal
poisons. One trial VIII convince the most skep-
tical OF its superiority over the ordinary porous
