Porous Plasters.

Porous plasters have been much improved re.
Gently In BENsoN's CAPcINE PLASTER, by q
new method Of treating the rubber so that It
contains more electricity than formerly, one OF
the qualities for which porous plaster has been
especially valued, and by the addition of Cap.
cine, which causes the plaster to act immedi-
ately and makes It the most reliable remedy
known for colds. rheumatism, lameness Of the
back and muscles, kidney complaint, or any OF
the diseases for which q porous plaster or lini-
ment has been used. The manufacturers are
pleased to learn that there Is q large class OF
conscientious druggists who, having become con-
vinced of the great merit Of BENsoN's CAPcISE
PLASTER, recommend It In preference to all
others. OF such are E. Drehn, Newark, N. J.;
Chas Althan and NJ. NJ. Cook, Brooklyn, N. Y;
Thompson, Lilly & Co., Baltimore, Nd; Robert
Powers, Richmond, Va. Vincent, Of Broadway,
Gullck Berry, Terre Haute, Ind, say "they
are convinced from results from sales there that
they are much superior to ordinary porous
plasters;" Cole * Flynn, Danville, Va, say
''they have given satisfaction in every caseS w.
T. Weber, Springfield, Mass, says, 1They con-
stitute an advertising medium in themselves u
Thus speak many others. The manufacturers
also regret to hear that in some instances drug
gists, acting from pecuniary motives, as not 50
large q profit is made on them as on ordinary
porous plasters, have used their influence TO per-
suade their customers to substitute some other
article in place Of BENsos's CAPcINE PLASTER.
When you ask for BESsoS's CAPcTNE PLASTER
be sure you get nothing else. Price, . cents.
