WHAT'S IN A NAME2
(benson's Plaster Is Pains Masfsr)

In the>days Of wild cat money in the
West, the Ames shove1s 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 & Son, was
q synonym for honesty. It was current all
over the world.
On the same principle Benson's Porous
Plaster is the universal standard external
remedy. Tosay it is a 'sgood" plaster does
not describe it II Is the best possi6le plaster.
For every disease in which an external rem-
edy is available, Benson's Plaster Is used
almost as q matter Of course.
Benson's Plaster quickly relieves and
cures where otksr modes Of treatment are
either exasperat;hgly slow or have no good
effect whatever. Coughs, colds. lumbago,
kidney trouble, rheumatism, lame back,
etc, are at OascS benefited and soon cured.
Capsicum, Strength thening and Belladonna
plasters have none Of the curative virtues
Of Benson's. More than 5000 physicians
and druggists have commended Benson's
Plaster as q remedy ii which the public
may have implicit confidence; while, in a
comparative test with other plasters, Ben
sons has received Jftty.1Sve Highest ato0rds.

Rumors in London That Settlement

London, March 2O.-Some of the
afternoon newspapers say the Tein
Tsin difficulty has been arranged.
The misunderstanding was due to
the Chinese authorities granting the
same concession to two nations.
The arrangement enables Great
Britain to proceed with the construc-
ton of the railroad siding. but if Rus
sia's concession proves to be earlier
than that of Great Britain, the latter
is to acknowledge the claims of Rus
sia. :.s.
The foreign office, however. has no
Information tending to confirm the an
nouncement having been made and
the officials are rather inclined to
doubt that such an arrangement has
been arrived at. They say the orig.
inal concession was given up by Rus.

the latest news concerning the awk-
ward situation OF affairs at Tien Tsin

Those who have heard Lord Sails

by well-informed diplomatists. The
