MAYDOLE'S HAMMER.
(Benson's Plaster Is Pains Master.)

When Maydole was told that he made .a
pretty good hammer" he said, mo, I don't
make pretty good hammer make the
best hammer that ever soas made"
Every carpenter who saw a Maydole ham,
mer wanted one. It was of tho best ma
terial, perfectly balanced, and the head
never flew off. Hammers were divided into
two classes-1st, Maydole's; I'd, all the rest.
Plasters are separated by the same line
of cleavage; LIST, Benson's Porous Plaster;
I'd, all the rest. When, for rheumatic pain,
cold, a cough, kidney trouble or any
other disease or ailment that may be treated
externally, you ask for plaster, any hon.
est, reputable druggist will give you Ben
sons. He kzoaos it is incomparably the
best, and he assumes that you know it too.
As the name of Maydole stood for hammers
the name of Benson stands for plasters-
the "real thing" All the medicinal poten-
cies that are valuable in plaster are in
Benson's. Capsicum, Streng gthening and
Belladonna plasters are out Of date.
An army of physicians and druggists, and
millions Of the people, have written of
Benson's Plasters as aremedy to betrusted.
Benson's Plasters have ffty-fve highest
0aoards. Accept no substitute.

pay postage on any number ordered in the
