For thirty years there has been no i'm
provement In the composition OF porous
plaster. The recent discovery of Cap
cine and Its addition to an improved po-
rous plaster has introduced to the con.
sumers and the public. an article of pro-
gress. The objection tn the ordinary ar
ticle is its slow action. Benson's Capcine
Porous Plaster Overcomes this great OBJ
lection by cffecting In few hours what
the ordinary porous plaster accomplishes
In days and weeks OF continuous wear.
3 Benson's Capcine Porous Plasters are
preferred to all others on the following
grounds:
First-thcir composition is OF an inn

as a powerful and iinerring spe-
citlc, has never been equaled in
the history Of true medicine.
They operate with astonishing
vigor, bring almost immediate
relief. and cure more speedily
aud with greater certainty than
any known plaster, linimcnt or
compound.
Second-They possess all the merit oi
the ordinary porous plaster with
