the barriers and won its way to my good
opinion Ny attention was frst called
to it some eight months ago by a pa
tent of mine. Although 1 was well ac-
quainted with the superior excellence OF your
other plaster and antisceptic dressing made espe-
cially for the profession, the Bensons was conpar
atvely new to me. had heard, however, Of its

Rheumatism. Neuralgia, Congestion ofthe Bron
chial Tubes and Lungs, Dyspepsia, Torpid Liver
and the like affections, and have since begun to
experiment with it personally. / find BENsoN's
cAPCINE PLASTER an exceptionally cleanly
plaster to use. and rapid In its action.
Many tests of its qualities, made in my own fam.
fly and among my patients have convinced me
that there is no other single article valuable fol
popular use, nor so helpful in the diseases have

Should you desire to do 50. you may use my
name TO that eff,ct. Very truly yours,
