The Greatest Medical Disecvery 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 caused by outward application as the present. lt is an undisputed fact that over half of the entire population of the globe resort to the use of ordinary plasters.
DR. MELVIN’s Capsicum Porous PLASTERS are acknowled, by all who have used them, to act quicker than any other plaster they ever before tried, and that one of these plasters will do more real service than a hundred of the ordinary kind, All other plasters-are slow of action. and require to be worn continually to effect a cure; but with these it_is entirely dif- + ferent: the instant one is applied the pat igent will feel its effect.
and well know the effect OfGapsicum; and
it has always been mo or less used as & medical agent for an gfitward application; but it is only of very refent date that its advan-
tages in a porous ‘faster have been discovered. Being, however convinced of the wonderful cures effecteo’ by Dr. MELvrn’s CApsicuM PORSES” PLASTERS, and their superiority over all other plasters, they now actually prescribe them, in their practice, for such diseases as rheumatism, pain in the side and back, and all such cases as have required the use of plasters or liniment. After you have tried other plas- ters and liniments, and they have failed, and you want a certain cure, ask your druggist for Dr. MELVIN’s’ CApsicumM PoROUS PLASTER. You ean hardly believe your own convictions of its wonderful effects. Ithough powerful and quick in its action, you can rely on its safety for the most delicate a to wear, as it is free from lead and other poisonous material commonly used in the manufacture ef ordin- ary plasters. One trial is a sufficient guarantee of its merits, and one plaster will sell hundreds to your friends.
Ask your druggist for Dr. MELVIN’s CAPs!- cUM PoROUS PLASTER, and take no other; or, on feceipt of 25 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,
