RUBBER and CAPCINE.

leled as Pain Reliever, whether external
or internal. Nearly all the Surgeons have
adopted 1t on account OF its great healing
properties.
The most effectual way OF using the article
is in the form of perforated plaster. The
extensive use OF Ordinary PerfoI ated or Por-
GUS Plasters, is testimony to it's merit.
The only objection ever found with the or
dinary Rubber Porous Plaster is that it acts
too slowly-requiring days and continuous
wear to relieve pain or to effect cure.
A celebrated Physician of New York. who
has long made the medical properties of Rut

improvement in Porous Plaster by int roduC
ing Capcine, which oyercomes all the former
objections, causing the Plaster to do in &

MR.. EDITOR: Have you ever

pretty little village we have between

copper is mined and manufactured

antee you a cordial welcome and
something to see worth looking at
and to be remembered. But Mr..
Editor, what l wanted to say was
that we had a Fair on Wednes-
day last for the benefit of our little
M. E. Church, and seeing that your
correspondent mentions such things
occasionally, l thought it we'll to
let you know how we'll our little
community responded in aid of our
Fair. We received nearly 1910 and
had a most enjoyable time. Our
friends from Fairlee, West Fairlee,
Post Mills and Corinth were there
in goodly numbers, and aided very
materially by their presence and
purse to swell the receipts. The ia
bles were filed with a variety of
useful ornamental articles, the hand
work of our ladies'. The refresh.
ment tables were bountifully filled,
and hot coffee and lemonade were
IN great demand. The music by
the Ely Cornet Band was most ex-
cellent. But the best part of the
whole Fair, was, all the article were
sold. Not enough for a nest egg.
We, Mr.. Editor, were in hopes to
get the scarf, or bedquilt or pur.
chase the egg that contained the
gold ring, or guess correctly the
weight of the splendid fruit cake.
But in all we only had the satisfac-
ton of spending our money for
good cause, and having good time
generally. Don't you think we did

add much to the material worth of

give relief. They act as purgatice and also
as a tonic. Every family should have a sup
