NO NEED TO WAIT,
Whom Time has Wings, and when It
is ShOd with Lead-Hours at
Life's Extremes.
POROUS 31lantero.

Reclining in an easy chGir on a stormy WIN
ter's night, facing cheerful fire, amid cosy
and comfortable surroundings, interesting
book in hand. and, perhaps, delicious cigar in
mouth, one is in no hurry. Life Is concentra-
tel in the present. The past is dream, and
the future is a babe unborn. 1t is easy. then.
to wait. But distress is impatient. Necessity
is urgent. Trouble cannot consent to wait.
Sometimes it must, however, and then times
feet seem shod with lead, and the clocks fall
asleep.
Above all their lesser good qualities. the sa-
lient excellence Of BENsON's CAPCINE 20.
RoUs PLAsTERs is that they do not keep
you waiting, Placed over the seat of pain
they begin their helpful work at once. All
other plasters have this radical defect; they
draw upon the sufferers faith in doubtful
Tomorrow. They do a credit business. The
Capcine, because Of certain medicinal powers
which it alone possesses, acts to-day. Ii does
not ask you to endure one sleepless night more
one additional week of disappointed hone.
How important this difference is-aside from
the mere question of suffering and the various
inconvenience and losses attending it-none
but the trained physician knows. Diseases
have their crisis periods beyond which recov-
cry Is doubtful or impossible. While 8aitinz
for the slow and uncertain action of tho Old
fashioned cheap plaster, the patier, may cross
theiatal line. But whether he does OF not, It
remains true that, other things being equal.
the 2iliaAes Is the best. And the CAPCINR
y the quickest.

WAsHINGTON, May A decision has
just been rendered BY the Treasury De-

long-pending question, whet Ter ths g v
ernment of the United States has any title
to certain lands in Fernandina. Fla.
winch were sold for direct taxes in 1868.
In June of that year most of the land
upon which the city of Fernandina now
stands was sold for direct taxes, and a
large part of it was bid in by the Tax
Commissioner Of the United States.
Some question arose as to the
validity of that sale on account
of the participation therein of only
two of the three Tax Commissioners, the
third being absent and protesting ant

Treasury DepaT tment the same wear. and
Commissioner Lewis wrote an opinion
adverse to the sale. Secretary Chase an.
proved the opinion, and thereupon the
Tax commissioners set the sale as de aud
readVertised the property. Part of it WAS
then resold, but about 1000 lots sill re-
mained undisposed of. Some litigation
followed i'll the local State courts with
regard TO the titles under these sales, aud
the claim Of the government TO the | IL
which had been bought in at the first slIe
again came before the department. In
February last the Commiss ioner of In
ternal Revenue readered an opinion to
the effect that it would be ineQutable
on the part of the government to insist
upon its ownership of lots that had been

His business had been drifting along
like ship without rudder. and more
over he feared that if the trial were spun
out much farther it would be brought to
a close by the death or sickness of some
OF the jury.
Judge Wylie assured Mr.. Crane that
the trail was nearer an end than he
imagined. He believed that the pres
ent good health Of the jury was owing in
degree to the rest afforded by adjourn
ments over Saturday. The Court then
adjourned over to Monday.
