Proof Of Merit.

The proof of the merits of a plaster
is the cures it effects, and the volun-
tary testimonials of those who have
used Allcock's Porous Plasters during
the past thirty years is unimpeach-
able evidence of their superiority, and
should convince the most skeptical.
Self praise is no recommendation but
certificates from those who have used
them are.
Beware of limitations and do not be
deceived by misrepresentation. Ask
for Allcock's, and let no solicitation or
explanation Induce you to accept a
substitute.
