WHAT'S |N A MAIZE?
(BenSonS Plaster is Pains MaSter,)

In the days of wild cat money in the West, the Ames shovels were used as cur rency. They were as stable as gold; their price did not vary cent in twenty years. The very name of Oliver Ames Go Son, was O synonym for honesty. It was current all over the world.
 On the same principle Benson's Porous Plaster is the universal standard external remedy. To say it is ''good" plaster does not describe it at is tie best possible plaster. For every disease in which an external rem edy is available, Benson's Plaster is used almost as matter of course.
 Benson's Plaster quickly relieves and cures where other modes of treatment are either exasperatingly slow or have n good effect whatever. Coughs, colds, lumbago, kidney trouble, rheumatism, lame back, etc., are nt once benefited and soon cured.
 Capsicum, Strengthening and Belladonna pIasters have none of the curative virtues of Benson's. More than 5000 physicians and druggists have commended Benson's Plaster as a remedy in which the public may have implicit confidence; while, in a comparative test with other plasters, Ben sons has received .1ffty.1ioe AigAest aaoards. Beware of substitutes and cheap limitations.
 For sale by all druggists or we will pre- pay postage on any number ordered in the United States on receipt of 25c. each.

TIE DAISY.
WRITTEN FOR THE DEF.

WRITTEN FOR TIE BEE. There is a little flower white upon like hills, Far beyond where can sec ii grows It minglps with the green of meadow grass, And spreads above, q mantle of the snow. The garden flowers we cultivate do not exec This simple flower that clings to sandy hills That grows in thickcts by the dusty roads. And lines the banks of running rillS. It strayS and Wanders like a child That come, to spend the summers day And when the autumn woods are gold and rrt Still fingers in the frosty way. And when a sweet bouquet wild flowers I gather in my hands at morn 'Ts moi complete unless 1 hold The aiSieS that adDrn. The snow frin:;ed leaves, the gold at heart The dcwS that hang upon the stems. The summer winds that wave the flowers. The fields of white gems. When dead and withcrcd in decay. And fallen in their bl0Om.-- They will rp-;.nmatc tD life again. When sumner wakes tie tomb.

AN AIRY SCHEM Y.

If half of the plans made for the St. Louis exposition materialize 1t will be an interesting affair. One of them is for cooling the air, which is quite warm in St. Louis in the summer. The plan is to draw down cool currents from an altitude eight hundred CT one thousand grounds with air from ten to fifteen degrees cooler than the surface tenn perature. The plan comprehends the construction of an aerial tower or stand-p pipe of the aforesaid height, with lower termination about fifty feet above the ground, where large fans or blowers are attached that will draw a current downward at the rate of twenty or thirty miles an hour, equivalent to pumping capacity of half a million cubic feet of air per minute This vol ume of air will cover an acre ten feet deep-in an hour sixty acres. and in six hours three hundred and sixty acres. It is expected that ca1efaction through the action of the suns rays will be counterbalanced and neutralized by the constancy of the current during the daytime. After sundown the tempera- ture, 1t is claimed, can be held below eighty degrees Fahrenheit. The fans are to be started at four o'clock @. rn., when the air is coolest. By ten o'clock the buildings and grounds would be filled with fresh air and so maintained during the day.
 It Is much to be hoped that this scheme will work If it does 1t will be blessed by the millions who will be benefited by 1t.
