SUCCESS THE INDEX OF MERIT . ALLCOCK'S POROUS PLASTERS . The public are informed that these celebrated Plasters have been established twenty-seven years . Patented U . S ., 1845 . It is supposed and claimed that they restore the ELECTRICAL CONDITION of the part where applied , by which pain and diseased actions cease . But we really know little on this subject , because the properties of medical agents can only be known b y experience , and this has taught that whenever Allcock ' s Porous Plasters are applied they do good , often restoring the withered hand , removing the unsightly lump , lengthening the shorter leg , and restoring the lame to walk . But read our testimonials , and if youhave a weak spot in" your body , try a plaster ; the cost is small , BEING TWENTY-SEVEN HALFPENCE ONLY . No doubt they impart all THE ELECTRICITY OF GALVANISM to the system needed . We believe this because they have made greater cures than were ever achieved by the most costly applications . WHERE ONE WA . S SOLD A YEAR AGO A THOUSAND ARE SOLD NOW . They strengthen , warm , and invigorate thc part upon which they are applied , and relieve nervous affections of the bowels , lumbago , pains of the side / and usually , all local pain . In affections of the kidneys they are of great service . LUMBAGO . To Messrs . Allcock & Co , Liverpool . " Manor-road , Folkestone , July 6 , 1872 . Gentlemen , —Some months ago I suffered severel y from lumbago , ancl could not walk without much pain and difficulty . One day I met a friend , General -, who advised me to try one of Allcock ' s Porous Plasters , adding , ' I have one on me at this moment , which has wholly removed an a / lection similar to tlie one from which you are sullc'ring . ' I had really never before heard ofthe plasters , but was so struck witli what I heard that I immediately procured one and put it on . I found almost instantaneous relief ; the pain aud stillness were gone in an hour , and have never since returned . I may add that several friends , including an eminent physician , laughed at my account of my cure ; more than one of them , however , including that physician , have owned to me since that , in consequence of my statement , they have resorted lo Allcock ' s Porous Plasters when suffering in various ways , and have in every instance found relief . A lady of my acquaintance , who heard from me of these plasters , has tried Ihtm with wonderful elfect among the suflering poor . She iindsthc demand for them so great that she wrote to you to ask at what rate you could supply her with plasters for the poor . In answering her question you kindly sent her a supply for gratuitous distribution . To thank you in my own name , and in behalf of my friends and ofthe poor , 1 feel it a duty and a pleasure to scud you these few lines , of which you may make any use yon please . " J . 11 . WOODWARD . VOLUNTARY AND IMPORTANT TESTIMONIALS . " Sir , —I have myself proved the efficacy of your plasters , but to-day a well-known clergyman , in the course of conversation , asked me if 1 kuew anything of'Allcock ' s Porous Plasters . ' I replied , ' O yes , wc sell them largely ; I have just ordered ,- € f , o worth of them , ' 'Well , ' he said , ' they are invaluable . J give them to nearly all my poor parishoners for all sorts of complaints—rheumatism , lumbago , colds , bronchitis , Ike . I also use them in my own family , and recommend them to my friends . My wife was sultering from bronchial disturbance , but was quickly relieved by Allcock ' s Plaster . One case of cure was almost amusing . A person had been sullering a long time from dreadful pain at the pit ofthe stomach , and had spent I don ' t know how much in trying to get cured , but in vain . I gave him one of Allcock ' s Plasters , and it cured him in a quarter of an hour . He spoke so enthusiastically about the plasters that I asked him to allow his statement to be made public .

Now , 1 know Brandrcth ' s Pills to be perfectly harmless from long experience of their effects .
