No other plasters have been produced which gain so many testimonials of high value as those continuously accorded to ALLCOCK'S Pouous PLASTERS , and the only motive for these excep tional commendations lies in the fact of their being a medicinal and pharmaceutical preparation of superior value. Additional proof of the true value of ALLCOCK'S POROUS PLASTERS , lies in the fact that they are being largely imitated by unscrupulous persons , who seek to deceive the public by offering plasters which they claim to be the "same , " "equal , " "as good , " "better , " "best porous plaster , " etc. , while it is in general appearance only that they rcscmbleVALLCOCic's. All of the so-called porous plasters arc imitations of PLASTERS Avoid dealers who attempt to palm off inferior and worthless plasters that arc purchased by them at low rates for the purpose of substitution.
