RUBB Err AND CAPCINE,

There is scarcely branch OF human indus
Try in which India Rubber has not in some
form found its way. Although widely known
and used, but few are aware Of its medicinal
virtues and great curative properties. Prac-
tical experiment has proven that it is a natur-
al reservoir of electricity, containing more
than any known substance or compound.
owing to this fact 1t has been used with sue
cess in curing Nervous complaints and Rheu-
matism that were invulnerable to drugs.
IL has also been discovered that India Rub
Der possesses all the properties valuable as
aspe INC for Pulmonary complaints and cures
many forms OF Consumption and Lung dis
cases. Combined with Capcine it is unparal-
leled as Pain Reliever, whether external
OF internal. Nearly all the Surgeons have
adopted 1t on account Of its great healing
properties.
The most efIectual way of using the article
is in the form of II perforated plaster. Ihe
extensive use OF ordIr airy Perforated or Por-
ous Plasters; Is testimony to its merit.
dinary Rubber Porous Plaster is that it acts
too siowly,--requirng days and continuous
wear to relieve pain or to effect a cure.
T. N celebrated Physician of New York. who
has long made the medical properties of Rub
ber study has succeeded in making great
Improvement in Porous Plaster by introduc-
ng Capcine, which overcomes all the former
objections, causing the Plaster to do in a
iew moments or hours. that whica 1t former
ly required days or weeks
Capcine Is the most valuable ingredient
ever used as an external remedy. 1t operates
with astonishing vigor and relieves pain i'm
mediately. Its curative properties have be-
come SO famous that an enterprising firm in
New York took it in hand. and by bringing
Capcine Plaster to the attention OF Physi.
clans, have met with un unprecedented success.
The article ia known as BhNSON'S CAP
CINE PLASTER. The price Is the came as
the ordinary Porous Plaster, % cents. Every
Druggist has them.

Oh, merriy dance the stars tonight,
Oh, merrily oance the stars;
And the moon looks down in silver light
Through the blue enameled bars,
There is no sound in the forest round,
No voice from flower to tree,
And the winter rhyme, with it's sparkling
chime.
As it's task goes silently,
Merrily over the fleecy snow,
The moon looks down with Its yellow glow,
And the stars are gemmed with light.
Oh. merrily beat our hearts to. night,
Oh, Ilerrily beat our hearts,
The winter has for us delight,
The summer ne'er imparts,
Our eyes are bright with the warm love light
That winter may not chill;
And the sparkling snow, with Its silver glow
In JOY CLEANS round us still.
Merrily dance the stars tonight,
With their eyes Of golden hue;
And with young hopes, in joyance bright,
Our hearts are beating too.
