The Sclf-Binding Harvester is the
particular object Of spite among the
ignorant and misguided men Of Ohio

the farmer. The machine has only been
generally introduced this year, and is q
marvel of inventive genius, combining
with the reapiDg CT the grain the bind
ing oft into bundles, and thus dis
pensing with the manual labor always
hitherto required for this process. The
raid of the farm hands is already pro-
ducing such effect that the manufacturers
find their trade seriously affected. Thus

"Uponmy return home my hired man
handed me notice which he found
PINNED on my barn, notifying ms not TO

Under such circumstances must con-

The Greatest Medical Discovery since the Crrs'-
ton of Nan, or since the COmmeicr-
ment NJ the CariStidn Era.
There never has been,a time when the
healing of so many different diseases has
been caused by outward application as the
present. 1t Is an undisputed fact thnt over
half OF the entire population OF the globe re-
sort TO the use of ordinary plasters.
DIR. MELvIS'S CAPsICUM Porous PLAsTERs
are acknowledged by all who have used
them, to act quicker than any other plaster
they ever before tried, and that one OF these
plasters will do more real service THAI n hun
tiers are slow of action, ana require 10 he
worn continually to effect n cure; but with
these IL is entirely different; the instant one
is applied the patient will feel its effect.
Physicians In ali ages have thoroughly
tested and well know the effect of Capsicum;
and IL has always been more or less used rs a
medical agent for an outward applications;
but IL is only ola very recent date that its ad-
vnntages In n porous plaster have been dis
wonderful cures effected by DIR. MELrIN's
CAPsIcUM Porous P~LAsTERs and their supe-
riority over all other piasters, they now
actually prescribe them, in their practice, for
and back, and all such cases as have required
the use OF plasters or liniment. After you
have tried other plasters and lininents. and
they have failed, and you want a certain
cure, ask your druggist for DIR. MELvIS's
CAPsICUM Porous PLASTER. You can hardly
believe your own convictions of Its wonder
full effects. Although powerful and quick in
Its action, you can rely on its safety for the
most delicate person to wear, As II Is free
monty used in the manufacture of ordinary
plasters. One trial is n sufficient guarantee
OF Its merits, and one plaster Will sell hun
dreds to your friends.
Ask your druggist for DIR. MARvIS'S Cap
SICUM Porous PLASTER and take no other;
or, on receipt of . cents Tor one. 81 for five, or
to any address in the United States or Cana
das.
