canine was provided for in his masters will
by the setting aside of a certain house and
lot, the monthly rent from which was to be
appropriated to ''Dash's sole benefit during
his natural life." In this way the dogs days
were comfortably provided for, and the
gentleman's wife was named az Dash's
guardian.
Shortly after her husbands death the lady
went to New York to assuage her grief; but
she didn't take the dog along. In her absence

by three firms, the Portland Packing com.

slow Packing company; the latter new
company controlling the old trade mark

products. Altogether, the prospects Of
the business for the coming season are as
favorable as during any year in the history
of this great industry. Many of the small.
er companies will increase their acreage
over 1881. The farmers movement las,

suited in some concessions being made to
them by the larger companies, although
in some places they get less acres, az
other companies offer more for the corn.
At present, low grades of canned corn sell

wCUT THEM OUT.-a

People take nauseating doses for every
pain and ache, which put their stomachs out
of order, and then a physician is called to
attend to them. This is all needless, for if
the Hop Plaster is used, it is absorbed into
the system IN just the way to cure without
bringing on other troubles.
medicine to be popular must be both
agreeable and efficacious; the Hop Plaster is
a rare union of vegetable agents combined
with safety, reliability and effectiveness. The
indiscriminate use Of medicines taken inter-
nally is far more productive of injury than OF
benefit.
The most powerfully medicated and effec-
tive plaster ever evented is the Hop Plaster;
il embodies all the medicinal and sedative
properties of the Hop in combination with
the most highly approved gums and balsams
known to modern pharmacy.
The Hop F2cster is made porous. thus
allow ing the free evaporation of moisture,
stimulating the innumerabie pores of the body
to healthy action and giving tone and vigor
to the whole system. 1t is the discovery Of a
| Yankee chemist.
| The medicinal virtues of the Hop have been
utilized for centuries; they are al cohcentIa-
| ted in the Hop Plaster, and do more real good
| in relieving pain than any root, drug or herb
| liquid medicine in the whole domain OF nature.
