Brought into Competition with the
World; the Best Carries Oft
the HOnOES.

At the great Centennial Exhibition Of 1875.
the leading products Of all the branches Of
the Words industry were assembled at
Philadelphia. To,carry of prize in the face
Of that tremendous competition was task Of
no ordinary difficulty. Inventions and pre-
parations for the alienation Of pain and the
cure of disease were present In the greatest
possible variety, representing the skill and
the profoundest study Of the aye, and 1t may
be Of vital Importance TO you, personally, to
know that the highest and only medal given
10 rubber Porous Plasters, was awarded " the
POROUS PLASTER, by the following Jury:
DIR. WIN. ROTH, Surgeon General, Prussian
J. Any i, THOMPSON, A. M, M. D., washing
ton, d. Z.
c. b. WHITE. M. d.. New Orleans.
ERNEST FLtISCH. M. d., Austria.
The decision was afterwards confirmed by
the medical Jury, at the last Paris Exposition
Knowing the value OF such high and unbiased
testimony, the medicinal profession, both in
the United States and in Europe, quickly
threw aside the old slow -acting plasters they
had been using, and adopted Benson's In
their regular practice. That physicians and
surgeons Of the broadest reputation did this,
distinctly proves the intrinsic merit OF the
article.
1t is no more than Just To add that the aver
age physician of to-day IL not dominated by
the preludces which retarded the progress
and modified the successes OF hispredecessors
of not more than twenty five years ago. He
accepts hints from all quarters and endorses
.nd adopts demonstrated healing agents
where he finds them.
The right Of Benson's Capeine Porous Plas-
ter to stand at the head Of all external appli-
cations whatsoever, for the mitigation or cure
of disease, is no longer questioned.
Let the purchaser, however, be on his guard
against limitations. The genuine has the

'lIn porting Fruit Trees,

1t il not generally known that tLs

Europe, but such il really the case. Mr.
Randolph Peters, the well-known frnr
received an invoice Of NJ, 100 trees from

in New Castle Hundred.
OF this immense shipment he receiv.
ed from Transcn ~ Bro, 10000 cherry
trees, 5000 ounce, $50 fancy magnoIias
and 5000 pear trees, and from LcvisSieF

trees, II, 800 ounce, 1000 plane trees,
200 Cytisis Labrun, 100 ginko trees.
1000 Norway naples and 1000 Syca
more naples. The trees were shipped
from Orleans, and sent to Liverpool
England, and from thence shipped by
the American line Of steamers direct
to Baily & Co., Philadelphia, from
whence they were shipped by the
Electric line to Wilmington. Mr.
Peters has for some time been ha,in,
trees shipped from France, but this i,
the largest shipment he has ever had
made at one time.
He had given directions to have them
shipped direct to the port of Whining
ton, but by some means his lnstrre
tons were not carried out and they
came by the old channel through the
port Of Philadelphia
Mr. Peters says the trees started to
grow in France are acclimatcd to suit
the climate Of this country and are viz
orous and hardy. Trees can be started
and grown in this country but not 81"
