WHAT'S IN 4 NAME? (BenS0nS Plaster is Pains Masfar) }

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 a cent in twenty years. The very name of Oliver Ames & Son, was 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 a ''good" plaster does not describe it; it is the best possible plaster. For every disease in which an external rem- edy s 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 e1asperatingly slow or have n good effect whatever. Coughs colds. lumbago, kidney trouble, rheumatism, lame back. etc., are ct once benefited and soon cured.
 Capsicum, Strengthening and Belladonna plasters 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. .1fue highest asoords. 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.

 What to Do.
 There is comfort in the knowledge so often expressed, that Dr. kilmer's Swamp Root. the great kidney remedy fulfills every wish in curing rheumatism, pain in the back, kidneys, liver. bladder and every part of the urinary passage. It corrects inability to hold water and scalding pain in passing it, or bad effects following use of Mluor, wine or beer, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to go often during the day, and to get up many times during the night. The mild and the extra ordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its won derful cures of the most distressing cases. If you need medicine you should have the best.

By going round CQuch's hill and through the Putnam Park avenue and drive the only two Sport Hill and one other hill to get on Bedding Ridge. The drive is over first class roads and delightful. The people want either trolley line or the horselesS carriage line this summer to carry the thousands of visitors, board CTS and pleasure-seekers who go over this road to Bedding, Bethel and Dan- bury. By all means let us have the hOrSeleSS carriage.
