Imitators and Impostors.

The unequalled success of Allcock' s
Porous Plasters as an external remedy has
induced INSCRIPTIONS parties to offer i'm
itstions, which they endesvor to sell on
the reputation of Allcock's. 1t is an
absurdity TO speak of them in the same
category as the genuine porous plaster
Their pretentions are unfounded, their
vauntee merit unsupported by facts, their
alleged superiority TO or equality with
Allcock's false pretense.

chemists and thousands of grateful pat
