WE certainly could girls. I used to use something like that when I had my pony but that had a horse on the label.

It may have helped with the broken foot I have at the moment.

Lots of ads taken out throughout 1896 in different Cornish papers, also one one in 1891 naming W Moor, St Ann's Chapel, Calstock as the proprietor.

It seems to cure everything from gout to nursemaids knee, sore throats to ringworm in men and cattle, for strains and cuts and bruises, for nursing mothers and cows' udders, sore eyes, chilblains and lumbago etc.
