The History Of u Plaster.

Years ago the Rubber Porou, Plaster
was recognized as a useful and efficient
external remedy, possessing peculiar
merits different from anything eve,
known or used for like purpose before.
The reasons why ii became 50 popular
were these First, it was discovered that
rubber was the natural reservoir of elec.
tricity, and, consequently, Possessed
great curative properties. Second, when
rendered soft and pliable 1t became con-
venient base for the best external stimu-
lants. Third, it could be worn without
soiling the clothing or causing the wcarcr
any inconvenincc. Like all new inventions
1t was not perfect, but capable OF improve

been made in BENSON'S CAPCINE

saw much force in the suggestion, and
wrote two-column article about it. the
burden of which is that Logan was a
brave soldier and would command a
heartier support from the SOLDIERS of

licans could nominate. On this ground
solely, his nomination is urged. No act

Tm Philadelphans have entered upon
their system of robbery too early In the
season. They should not have betrayed
their thieving propcnsites until after the
formal opening of the exposition. when
they could have numbered their victims
by the tens of thousands. BY their haste
by exposing their ''little game" so early,
they have given out warning that thou
sands and tens of thousands of pco-
pie who do not care to be robbed. will be
quite likely TO heed. But the opportun-
tiles will be many. in any event.
They will make big thing
of 1t. The hotels will be full
of guests at eight dollars a day. Dirty
restaurauteurs will have customers at two
dollars per meal. Lager beer yenders
will obtain their ten cent. a glass hack
men will receive their five dollars an
hour; accommodating messengers
| will be paid their dollar for showing the
stranger to first class hotel where all
the rooms are taken: popcorn will sell
at quarter II ball ice water ut ten
cents glass; oranges at ten cents a
piece, and ice cream made out of eggs
and corn-starch at fifty cents saucer.
The Daiiy Exhibition Bptieti.s will com
mand a dime piece; boot blacks will
exact Il quarter for their "slines"
street cars will double their
prices; and at every step
and turn the visitor will be dogged for
money. The game has been commenced
already. The price of every article Of
necessity has been more than doubled:
and every device that the shrewdest h,i-
man ingenuity can provide to rob the
stranger OF his money, has been provided.
And into these traps the visitor is forced.

people. Thus only shall we show that
our boasted equality is not inferiority to
everybody else.
The several States are greatly inter-
ested In the removal of the deep-seatcd
llliteracy TO which ] have referred, but
by no means exclusively, as the interest
OF the general government covers the
same territory and embraces all and the
same voters. The election of president
OF the United States and of members of
congress cannot be rcckoncda as less grave
and important work than that of State
governors and legislatures The parts

Through the latest action of the peo-
pie upon the national constitution we
have bestowed universal suffrage upon
our fellow-citizens In all OF the States.
The nation is primarily responsible for
this action, and, while accepting OF its ad-
vantages, must shield itself rs well as the
states from the resulting possible perils.
The increased magnitude OF the burden
which has been imposed by the sover-

and the nation. Every one OF
our citizens has been crowned with equal
powers in the guidance of national and
State affairs but they have thus far had
too little aid to tit them even TO guide
themselves. Many OF the states rcso-
lutely assume their full share OF the great
responsibility, and raise by taxation and
expend nearly 500. 100000 annually Tor
common schools and when 80 much
more Is obviously required, shall the gen.
eral government look on with total indif-
ference, contributing nothing:
