In the year 1868, Mr.. J. R. Watkins first began
the manufacture of DR.. Wards Liniment. For
years he struggled along with limited means,
striving with all his powers and at times despair
ing of success, but at last established living,
paying business, and made the name cdr. Wards"
household word in thousands of homes. DUR
ing all these long years of toiling and waiting,
Mr.. Watkins little thought that men could be
found so lost to every principle of right and
Justice as to undertake to despoil him of his bus
mess, and themselves to attempt to harvest the
fruits of his lifelong labors. However, in this
various parts of the country, sprang up bogus
agents offering medicines said to be Dr. Wards or
"just as good as Or. Wards" frequently leading
customers into thinking they had the genuine
article. Therefore, in order to protect his bust.
ness and the public from being imposed upon,
Mr.. Watkins bought from Richard Ward, the
worldwide right to use his name as trade
mark for full line of medicines, and caused the
same to be registered in the U. S. Patent Office
No. 1856.
All customers are hereby cautioned to see that
