The TOUCH DOES IT

Benson's Plasters are like your other
friends-they hate to see you in pain or
in weakness and are dog-tired hearing you
complain about it. They want to cure you
and send you along to your business-whole
and happy. They can do it and aoW do it.
Try them on. What forp Why for any
cough or cold you may be troubled with, or
any bothering pain or ache, or worry with
kidneys or liver. Possibly some old clutch
of muscular rheumatism renders an arm or
leg worth only half price just now. For
anything that makes the machine work slow
and stiff, with pain maybe in the motion Of
it, clap "a Benson's Porous Plaster squarely on
the bad spot. They are the get-out-to-m0rro
plasters-not the sort that 60 to sleep on
your skin like a cat on cushion. There
is comfort and speedy relief in the touch of
them. No other external remedy, no mat
ter how made or how called, is worthy
to live in the same street with Ben
sons Plasters. Pains and ailments melt
away under them as Q sheet of ice does un-
der the Spring sun. You cannot foretsll
the weather but you can always foretell
the effect of Benson's Plasters; it is as
sure as the effect of hot breakfast in o
hungry mans stomach. But look out for
substitutes. Get the genuine. All drug
gists, or we will prepay postage on any
number ordered In the United States on
receipt of 25c. each.

THE LITTLE MINSTREL.

Good Stories and Timely Articles In Many
Different Fields.

The distinction of the March number of
"McClure's Magazine" lies no less in the re-
markably we'll considered variety of its con-
tents than in the exec lence Of individual
articles Three very timely and yet very
different articles are Carl Snyder's account of
the wonderful medical discoveries of Professor
Loeb of Chicago University. which two
months ago startled the whole scientific
world, and which ale now first clearly and
soundly treated in popular form Julian
Ralph's concise review of Conan Doyle's
great book on the Boer War, just published; 4;
and a character sketch by Maurice Sherman
Porter of ''Den:s Mulvlhil, Stoker and
Mayor" the new mayor of Bridgeport, Conn.
and one of the most picturesque figures in
American political life to-day.
An historical essay, in vivid narrative form,
is Ida M. Tarbell's story of the trial of Aaron
Burr, dramatic and yet little known episode
of American history. Clara Morris has a
paper on her old friend himself best known
as the founder of the Society for the Preven-
ton of Cruelty TO Animals, Henry Bergh
enlvened with the kind of anecdotes which
Miss Morris knows so well how TO tell.
William Davenport Hubert writes about the
"Life of Canada Lynx" in the same fresh
and simple way in which he has already told
about the other wild animals of our North
ern forests. A pleasant paper of the ''Next
to the Ground" series is Martha MCCULLOUGH
Williams "Cow."
The stories are all good and all different.
George Madden Martin has another Emmy
Lou story, "All the Winds of Doctrine,
which shows the little heroine struggling in
the Fifth Reader with the mysteries of creeds
and the Dictionary. Norman Duncan's THE
Raging of the Sea-" is moving story of a
battle with the storm in a cranky Newfound-
land hsherman's punt. In "Mrs. Atwood's
Outer kaiment," Nary Stewart Cutting tells
with delightfully."- quiet humor little story OF
a new dress for the mother of family.
Chauncey Thomas contributes "Kiowa's
Revival" rattling tale of the trick that the
cowmen of Kiowa played on the eastern par
son who come to live among them. "Barn'
doors Romance" by Carrie Hunt Lotta, is
a homey little idyll of farm life. Miss
Daskam's "Verses for Child" are simple
and quaint and childlike, and are beautifully
illustrated with decorative borders by Ethe
Franklin Belts.

A Short Review of the March Ladies'
Home Journal

The March number of the Ladies' Home
Journal is an admirable example of real
"home" magazine. From the beautiful
cover, by Mr.. w. l.. Taylor, to the very last
page it is replete with delightful fiction and
interesting articles. The number opens with
the unique story of "The Sexton Who
Ruled New York City," by William perrine,
and then comes real treat, another "Lady
or the Tiger" story, by the same Stockton
who gave us that remarkable tale of mystery.
This one is called "My Balloon Hunt"

articles about birds and their ''personali-
ties" and "The Dominic" tells an amusing

stallment of Miss Portor's "Those Days in
Old Virginia." and a page of pictures Of
"PIetty Country Homes from S4oo to
$4,000" "His Mother" is a touching story
by Kate Whiting latch, and the fourth of
"The Russells in Chicago" shows us some
of the odd customs and characteristics of
the "Windy City" Mr.. Bok's editorial is
written under the title "She Dasn't," and
deals fearlessly with the woman who is afraid
to come out and do things as she thinks
they should be done. The special feature of
the editorial section is Mr.. Hamilton w.
Mabie's first Literary Talk" These talks
will appear monthly hereafter. Other val
liable articles in the magazine, outside of
the regular departments, are: "Flow to

RESPECT FOR THE PEOPLE.
The True source of Political Power
Is Properly RECOGNIZED by the
Republicans.

Without loss of time, the Vermont
legislature, largely republican in both
branches. has acted on the main issue
in the recent state campaign, and called
for vote of the people themselves on
the bill passed. The leading question
referred to was whether the long eS-
tablished prohibition law should
stand. attended with many admitted
violations. or be replaced by local OPP
tion and high license. This hotlv de-
batcd point divided the republican
party of Vermont into almost equal
parts and the election of governor
went TO the legislature. That body
has passed a law and provided for its
submission to a special election in the
state January 6. The bill calls for an
annual popular vote on the licensing of
saloons and sets a minimum fee of
$500 and maximum of $1,000 for a gen
cral license, with "A $3.50 license for sell
ing fcrmcnted liquors. An antitreat-
ing clause is included in the bill. Mas
sachusetts has a law similar in many
respects. and local option there re-
suits i'm actual prohibition over most
of the states area.
At the recent election Illinois made
a distinct advance with the referendum
principle. Vermont applies it pructi-
cally. Oregon and South Dakota have
embodied il i'm their constitutions.
Iowa has authorized il i'm municipal
affairs An these are republican states.
Here is another illustration, says the
81. Louis Globe Democrat, OF the fact
that the republican party acts while
other parties occupy themselves with
dudging, assembling on empty talk.
The now moribuud populist party has
had much 10 say about the referendum,
but nothing practical ina this respect
came from its surdid fusion with the
incompetent aud uudomucrutic demo
rrucy. lu few weeks The people OF
Vermont will lrpislutc ou their most
ycNrd question by their direct votes at

LEFT THE TRACK.
Chair Car OH n Western Road Rolls
Down an Embnnkment.

Bemidii, Mimi, Dec. 9.-The chair
car on Il Minnesota &s international
passenger train left the track in the
yards here last evening and rolled
down an embanllment. None of the
passengers were killed, but nearly
every occupant of the car was more
or less injured, and the shocK threw
the people in the other ears of the
train against the seats and many re.
cefyed minor injuries.
How the accident happened is not
known. The train was rounding
curve at a slow rate of speed wher
the chair car left the track and was
reduced to a heap of wreckage. The
most seriously injured was Mrs. w
d. Smith. She was accompanied by
three little children, the youngest OF
whom was also severely injured about
the head. Mrs. Smith was badly hurt
about the head, besides receiving in,
ternal injuries.
