Imperial Embrocation and L. R. Dowker

The Imperial Embrocation company of Montreal had an advertisement for its remedy which included a recommendation by Leslie R. Dowker. This tells us something about Leslie. It means that he must have been widely known as a respected and trusted person otherwise the company would not have tried to associate him with their brand.
