Malaria is a broad name for many diseases-all
originating in blood poisoning. Bilious fever, the
typhus and typhoid fevers and chis and fever are
prominent members of the family. Malaria de-
fies alike the builders, the plumbers and the ply
sicians. Despairing of ordinary treatment, the
latter almost unanimously recommend Benson's
Capcinc Porous Plaster as the greatest anti-ma-
larial specific of the age. These pasters act upon
the liver, spleen, bowels and kidneys.
Worn over the region of the liver, and upon the
back over the kidneys, they ward off malaria like
an armor. No other plasters do this.
When you purchase, satisfy yourself that the
word CAPCINE is cut in the centre of the plas-
ter.

IMPROVEMENTS AT THE GREEN SERPENTINE
QUAfRIEs.- George W. scarboro has con-
tract for erecting a residence for the manager
and several tenant houses at the Green Serpen-
tine Marble Quarries, on Broad Creek The
company owning the works have furnished them
with machinery for polishing the stone, and ac-
cordingly mantel-pieces, tomb-stones, columns,
&c, are cut out OF the quarry and dressed and
polished on the spot. 1t was difficult, fora long
time, to get machinery to properly polish the
stone and bring out all its beauty, on account
of its extreme hardness, but every obstacle
seems to have been overcome and the work of
removing and polishing the stone is now in full
progress az the Broad Creek mills The estab-
lishment is managed by Mr. Lampson. Stones
of any required size can be taken out in solid
block.
INCREASED BUSINESS FACILIsIEs AT ABER-
DEEN.-The canning business in Hartford coun-
ty has outgrown the ability of the Philadelphia,
Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad Company
to properly take care of and ship canned goods
from some of its stations during the canning
season. This is particularly the case at Aber
deem, where at times thousand of casas of goods
have been exposed to the weather for several
days at time waiting for cars to take them
away. The railroad company has accordingly
complied with the request of some of the large
Gamers for better arrangements at that point
for the shipment of their goods. Some of the
authorities of the railroad recently visited Aber
deem and located another siding. They also in
tend to build another warehouse there and will
detail special agent to receive canned goods
and see that they are properly shipped.

The Quitman Free Press says that " the s. F. &
w. r. r is notified that five hundred car loads
of melons will be shipped from Quitmsn the
coming season, and that more room for loading
and plenty of good cars will be required" All
that is needed is through transportation, at the
equitable figures secured by the Georgia r.
r. system to make the melon crop great source
of revenue to any section of the lower South 4.
The product will be ahead in the market and it
is hardly possible to overstock the demand of the
melon eating millions of the North and West
Every season melons become a drug in Southern
towns, and are left to rot in Southern fields. II
they can be placed to pay, there is no limit
TO their production. We want that railroad from
brownsville to Carrabelle via Tallahassee, hur-
ried up, so that the cars may be loaded with the
melons of Leon. The melons shipped at Quit
man and Valdosta last season netted about
100000. The editor Of the Waycross Reporter
has been working up the melon business and has
ascertained-
That from 1000 to 1000 marketable melons
can be made on an acre of good land; that an
average carload of melons OF marketable size is
200; that the average profit on last years crop
was $3.50 per car lOad that the FIRST melons of the
season shipped by Mr.. Eddie Young, OF QuitmaD,
Melted him 45O0-one car load; that the prices OF
melons in Louisville. Nashville anil Chicago early
last season ranged from 50 to 70 cents apiece,
and never went below 90 cents during the sea-
son that shape as well as size is an important
requisite for marketable melons; that green and
