Nenson's Plaster Is Pains Mastsf.)

These are days of records and of the beat
ing of records. Benson's Porous Plaster, for
quickness of action and thoroughness Of
cure, has no records>to beat except its own.
Benson's Plaster, always the best, always
the leader, il to-day better than eDer. Il
sticks to the skin but never sticks in its
tracks. It marches on.
The people not only want to be cured
but cured quictly- and Benson's Plaster
does it. Coughs, colds, humbago, asthma,
bronchitis, liver and kidney complaints,
and other ills approachable by an external
remedy, yield to Benson's as icedoes to heat.
Neither Belladonna, Strengthening or
Capsicum plasters are to be compared with
Benson's. People who have once tested
the merits of Benson's Plaster have no use
for any other external remedy.
More than 600 physicians and drug
gists (and thousand times as many nom
professional persons) have called Benson's
Plasters one of the few % home remedies
that can be trusted. 49,.
Fifty-fve highest awards have been made
to it in competition with the best known
plasters of Europe and America. Better
proof of its merits is uncomfortable. Be
sure to get the genuine.

The readers of this paper will be pleased
to learn there is at least one dreaded disease
that science has been able to cure in all its
stages, and that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh
Cure is the only positive cure known to the
medical fraternity. Catarrh being consti-
tutional disease, requires a constitutional
treatment. Halps Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucuous surfaces of the system, thereby
destroying the foundation of the disease,
and giving the patient strength by building
up the constitution and assisting nature in
doing its work. The proprietors have so
much faith IN its curative powers, that they
offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that
it fails to cure. Send for list of testimon-
ials.

VIOLATES FEDERAL LAW.
Minnesota's Attorney General on tn
Railroad Consolidation.

Minnesota's Attorney General on the
Railroad Consolidation.
st. Paul, Nov. 27.-Attorney General
Douglas, who has Just returned from
a hunting trip, suggests proceedings
by the federal authorities under the
Sherman ANTITRUST law and the inter.
state commerce law against the con.
solidation Of the Great Northern, the
Northern Pacific and the Burlington
under the Northern Securities com.
pany of New Jersey. Proceedings by
the state to annul unused railroad
franchises, he thinks, may be of some
assistance.
The combination, he says, is a clear
violation of the sprint of the Minneso
ia law prohibiting the consolidation OF
competing and parallel lines, but not
of the letter of the law.
The attorney general suggests an
amend nent to the federal constitution
placing graduated income and prop.
erty tax on corporations.
