MAYD0LE'S HAMMER.
(Benson's Plaster Is Pains Mastsr.)

When Maydole was told that he made "a
pretty good hammer" lie said, mo, don't
make pretty good hammer make the
best hammer that ever aods made"
Every carpenter who saw a Maydole ham,
mer wanted one. 1t was of the best ma
terial, perfectly balanced, and the head
never flew of. Hammers were divided into
two classes-lst, Maydole's; I'd, all the rest.
Plasters are separated by the same line
of cleavage; 1st, Benson's Porous Plaster !;
I'd, all the rest. When, for rheumatic pain,
a cold, cough, kidney trouble or any
other disease or ailment that may be treated
externally, you ask for a plaster, any hon
est, reputable druggist will give you Ben
sons He kRO,os it is incomparably the
best, and he assumes that you know it too.
As the name of Maydole stood for hammers
tho name of Benson stands for plasters-
the 'real thing" All the medicinal poten-
cies that are valuable in a plaster are in
Benson's. Capsicum, Strengthening and
Belladonna plasters are out of date.
An army of physicians and druggists, and
million4 of the people, have written of
Benson's Plasters as remedyto betrusted.

identical in fact, is one of the common

Sometimes the statement runs; 81 was
given up by four DOCTORS" showing a
desperate effort to find relief in local
practitioners. But however the story
begins, it almost invariably ends with
the statement, cI am perfectly cured by

Persons suffering from "weak" lungs,
hemorrhages, deep seated cough, ema-
citation and weakness have been restored
to perfect health by the Discovery"
The philosophy of the cures effected
to understand. Life is sustained by
food, digested and assinilated. The
basis of health is good appetite and a
sound digestion. In almost all cases of
disease loss of appetite is an early symp-
tom, and this is promptly followed by
wasting of the flesh. For some cause
the food eaten is not being converted
into nutrition and the body and its or
gans, being starved. must grow weak.
There is only one way to get strength
and that is by food. DIR. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery heals diseases of the
stomach and allied organs of digestion
and nutrition, so enabling the body to
assimilate the needed nourishment.
Thus various forms of vweakness," So
called, are cured by the Discovery
rweak" lungs, vweak" heart, rweak"
nerves, oweak" or sluggish liver, ETC.,
because the organs are made strong by
food, which is perfectly digested and
assimilated after the oDiscovery" has
healed the diseases of the stomach and
associated organs of digestion and nu-
triton.
