Athletics For Women.

The subject of physical culture is
attracting more general attention at
the present time than ever before
Men and women are beginning to see
that through it not only is the power
for work and, therefore, for earning
money increased, sickness avoided and
life heightened by exercise, but that
physical development and strength
are TO be desired for their own sakes.
While women are benefited in much
the same way and by the same exer-
cises as men, there are certain essen
tlal differences between the sexes
which must be considered in order to
attain the highest degree of physical
and mental development. The Feb
ruary Delineator contains the opening
article of valuable series on athletics
for women, under the heading, Physi-
cal Culture at Home.

WORTH $500, 900, 900.

The President of certain big Oil Com
pany is said to be worth $500, 000,0 900. A
tidy bit of money and no mistake. And
yet he isn't happy. In an address to Bible
class he spoke of trials and troubles of the
rich and the loads they have to carry. A
young lady whispered to a friend that he
might wear n Bensons Porous Plaster on his
back or, better still, divide the money among
the members of the class. l don't know
why her idea about the plaster makes me
want to laugh, but it does. All the same
have seen plenty of people laugh after
putting Bensons Plasters on their backs
or chests, or on any other spot where there
was weight, heaviness, weakness or pain.
1t may be the sharp stabs of neuralgia, the
aches and wrenches of rheumatism it may
be colds in muscles or bones; it may be
those kidney or lumbago thrusts that mako
you yell as at dog bite; or it may be
strain or cramp, anything that wants quiet
ing and comforting. Don't bother with
salves, liniments, lotions, ETC., or with any
of the stupid and useless old style plasters.
Clap on Benson's. 1t relieves at once
and cures quickly. 1t stops the pain and
makes you laugh for the very ease and good
feeling of it. But watch out against inn

TOWN SHEND.
The Delightful Benefit Dinner at
Townshend.

There was a very pleasant gathering
at the Townshend Inn on Monday
evening which took the form of a ben
eft dinner to our host, Mr.. Davis, at
one dollar a plate to which 60 of our
citizens sat down promptly at 100.
The bountiful repast consisted of roast
turkey, with all the accessories, and to
which all did ample justice. After
dinner speeches were made by diff
ferent ones. J. II. Ware being master
of ceremonies, called the names of the
several speakers in a pleasant and
humorous manner, first speaking him
self, and giving a history of the sad
events in the way of fires that have
swept through our village at three
different times in the past nine years,
Of the homes and public buildings that
had been destroyed, and of all the dis
couragements that had come to us on
account of these calamities, and of the
hopeful outlook of the village now that
these buildings had been replaced. He
spoke of our nice hotel and it's pleas
ant environment.
The first speaker called on was c.
Q. Stebbins. followed by DR.. Osgood,
Rev. NJ. F. Hardy. Rev. f. A. Royal
(the two latter spoke in a humorous
vein). followed by Prof. Edgecomb,
who spoke interestingly in the inter
ests of Leland & Gray Seminary, say
ing that the culture and refinement of
the people of this place was largely
due to the influence that had gone out
from this institution. and as a result
of this, the interests of the seminary
should have warm place in all our
hearts.
Then Mr. Ware called on Miss
Fletcher and Mrs c. c. Taft Miss
Fletcher responded by saying she
thought it unfair to call upon the
ladies to make impromptu speeches
when those who had already spoken
knew beforehand they were to be call
ed upon, and had prepared themselves,
and had she received the same notice
and made previous preparation she
could have surprised the company
with her eloquence. Mrs. Taft re-
sponded by saying she felt great
praise was due Mrs. Davis for the ex-
cellent dinner of which we had par
taken. and she did not wish this fact
to be overlooked, for without a good
landlady we could not have a good
hotel. Upon rising from the table
three hearty cheers were given for
Mr.. and Mrs. Davis. A social time fol-
lowed during which Miss Moor.
teacher of elocution in the seminary.
gave two rectations, which were
much enjoyed. At a late hour the
company broke up feeling they had
past a delightful evening" As this
event was so thoroughly enjoyed by
all we would suggest that we have
more gatherings of a social nature.
