(CAPSICUM)
i OR GUSSEASRERS.
The Greatest Medical Discovery since the Creation of Man, or since the Commencement of the Christian Era.
There never has been a time when the heal- ing of so many different diseases has been eaused by outward application as the present. It is an undisputed fact that over half of the entire population of the globe resort to the use of ordinary plasters. ~.
Dr. XIELVIN’S CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTERS are acknowledged by.all who have used them,
before tried, and that one of these plasiers will do more real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind. All other plasters are slowof action, and require to be worn continually to effect a cure; but with these it is entirely dif- ferent: the ‘nstant one is applied the patient will feel its effect.
Physicians in all ages have thoroughly tested and well know the effect of Capsicum; and it has always been more or less used as @ medical agent for an outward application; but it is only of very recent date that its advan- tages in a porous plaster have been discovered. Being, however, convinced of the wonderful eures effected by Dr. Mretvrn’s CAPSICUM Porous PLASTERS, and their superiority over all other plasfers, they now actually preseribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, pein in the side and baek, and all such eases as have required the use of plasters orliniment. After you have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and you want a certain eure, ask your druggist for Dr. MELvin’s CAPSICUM POROUS PLASTER. You can hardly believe your own convictions of its wonderful effects. Although powerfu! and quick in its action, you can rely on its safety for the most delieate eo to wear, as it is free from lead and other poisonous material commonly used 'n the manufacture ef ordin-
| to.aet quicker than any other plaster they ever
ary plasters. One trial is a suftieient ntee of its merits, and one plaster will seli hundreds to your friends.
Ask your druggist for Dr, MELVIN’s CAPSI- cuM Porovs PLASTER, and take no other; or, on receipt of 26 cents for one, $1 for five, or $2 for a dozen, they will be mailed, post paid, to any address in the United States or Canadas,
