Rubber and Caucins.

There is scarcely branch of human industry
in which India Rubber has rot 10 some form
found its way. Although widely known and
used, but few are aware Of its medicinal virtues
and great curative properties. Practical expert
ment has proven that it is a natural reservoir ol
electricity. containing more than any known sub
stance or compound. Owing TO this fact 1t has
been used with success in curing Nervous com.
plants and rheumatism that we're invulnerable
to drugs.
1t has been discovered that India Rubber pos.
sesses all the properties valuable as speeihc for
Pulmonary complaints, and cures many forms OF
Consumption and Lung diseases. Combined with
Capcine IL is unparalleled as Pain Reliever,
whether external or internal. Nearly all the
surgeons have adopted 1t on account Of its great
healing properties.
The most efectual way of using the article Is In
the form Of q perforated plaster The extensive
use Of ordinary Perforated Porous Plasters is q
testimony to lis merit.
The only objection ever found with the ordinary
Rubber Porous Plaster Is that It acts too slowly
requiring days and continuous wear to relieve pain
or to effect q cure.
A celebrated physician of New York, who has
study, has succeeded In making great improve
ment In Porous Plasters by introducing Capcine,
which overcomes all the former objections, causing
the Plaster to do In few moments or hours that
which 1t formerly required days or weeks.
Capcine is the most valuable ingredient ever
used as an external remedy. It operates with
astonishing vigor and relieves pain Immediately.
Its curative properties have become so famous
that an enterprising firm In New York took IL in
hand, and BY bringing Capcine Plssters to the
attention Of physicians have met with unprece-
dented success. The article is known as BENsoN's
CAPCINK PLASTER. The price is the same as the
ordinary Porous Plaster, rs cents. Every drug
gist has them.

WAsHISGToN, ID. c., Dec. q, 1875.
To the Editor Of the National Republican:
SIR: Some Of the dyspeptic editors Of the city
papers, notably the Star, have been so worried
during the Christmas holidays by the blowing OF
tin horns that they have made It matter Of ed
itorial comment, and not satisfied with launching
their thur der against the "blowers" mostly IRE
sponsible children, they found fault with the
Of the little ones.
Editorial thunder for once had geod effect.
Yesterday morning at the Police Court an un-
lucky offender was lined Ave dollars for blowing
horn, and during the afternoon IN one police
station alone there were hung on the walls as
trophies hundred (more or less) OF the Internal
machines, captured from innocent children on the
streets. HON blowing may be snuisance-an
offense against the law-but n IL is and we hope
1t is, the police have been some time in making
up their minds about the matter. Who OF the
readers Of THE REPUBLICAN but is daily, even
hourly, annoyed by the fendish "toot" Of the
stIoDg-lunged oyster peddler or the garbage man?
There is nowhere record OF the arrest OF any
Of these or the capture OF their horns. Who Of
our readers that has not been awakened At an

milkman nor the bell have besn suppressed.

neetiou with the Orderl

nection with the Order!
WASHINGTON, d. c., Dec. II, 1876.
To the Editor Of the National RspubLfeaR:
SIR: would like to ask you, through your
paper, one or two questions about the new secret
society the Herald has Just discovered. First.
What connection, If any, has the Order Of the
Sovereigns Of Industry with the Order of o. A. U?
Second. What part do the leaders Of the first.
named Order (SoysreiguS) propose for that 50.
ciety in the coming Presidential campaign? lam
credibly informed that this Order is supposed to
cover o deeper POLITICAL meaning than Is gener-
ally supposed. Please insert this question and
your answer, as the accredited organ OF the
Sovereigns" in the District, and oblige,
SEVERAL ISQVIRERs.
lin response to the foregoing We have to say
that not being authorized, as the "organ Of the
SoFereigns OF Industry" TO expose any Of its Sc
crets, with which, BY the way, We are not IN
trusted, we turned the letter over to one OF the
ORDERS chief officers IN this District and have re-
ceived from him reply, from which we quote the
following, which will, doubtless, be as satisfac-
tory to several Inquirers' as it 10 to us: THE
Order Of 'Sovereigns Of Industry wholly eschews
politics at the present time. But should
the %. A. u grow into q grand army, needing
purveyors, &c, the SoVereigns will undoubtedly
protier their services as quartermasters and sut-
lerS, Is Il is part Of their duty In this world to
win success in the line Of cheap purchases, to
reduce prices to living point, and outha ank the
'bulls' Of the market wherever they find them."l
