Advertisement for Homocea, 1895. 'First Young Lady: "Yes, dear, I am quite a martyr to neuralgia." Second Young Lady: "I am so sorry for you, but why not try Homocea? I have found it a positive cure for all pains"...It is not only a wonderful lubricant, but strongly antiseptic, and relieves inflammation and pain almost instantaneously...I have used it for all kinds of ailments during the last eight years, here and at sea and in Canada. For stiffness, sprains, muscular rheumatism, sore throat, mosquito-bites, etc., it is a real boon, and no praise can be too high for it. No one need be afraid to use it for even the most tender part, eleven on raw flesh...an infallible cure for Piles, Rheumatism, Sciatica, Neuralgia, Toothache, Earache, Chilblains, Cold in the Head, Eczema, Sores, Cuts, Bruises, Wounds, Inflammation, Stiffness, Sprains, and Strains...cured a very severe attack of Gout in a patient's hands; they were so painful she cried if you only touched the bedclothes... My carpenter's wife complained of cramps from rheumatism, being unable to sleep. Now the rheumatism is better, and the cramps so far gone that she can sleep...I believe the ointment to be most valuable in many cases, and I think it right to say so'. From "Illustrated London News", 1895.
