Judxe of our surprise when told that this immense factory (ocated in South Brooklyn) was devoted to the prepamstion of BENSON'S GAPCINE POROUS PLASTER. We had never thought of this branch of the business at all, and, if we had, it would have been merely a passing idea of a ligtle room with a few plasters for a few people troubled with back and other aches; but “here, looking at the many busy women engaged from morning to night in boxing and labeling the plasters, to be made ready for the market every day, one is amazed at the enormous consumption of them there must be, _‘*Where on earth cah so many go?" we asked. ‘Everywhere: come into our shipping department and our state- ment will be verified,” and it was, for the books showed orders from nearly every part of our globe. ‘These plasters seem like the leaves the ancients wrote about, that were given for the healing of the nations, to be sent into every part where there was pain.—Brockiyn Eagle. The great success of BENSON'S OAPCINE PO- ROOS PLASTER is due to the fact that it is a de- cided improvement on the ordinary porous plas- ter, Which has been known and used for 30 years. It possetses wreater aud more powerful pain-teliey: ing and curative properties, and is more prom| and_ positive in its action. Any physician will confirm the statement regarding its superiority over all similar articles. ‘There is uo other means whereby relief can be obtained in such cases as lame back, kidney and spinal complaints, rheuma- | tism, stubborn couchs, whooping cough, and all le hes and pains, with so much convenience, quickness and certainty as by the use of BEN- SON'S CAPCINE POROUS PLASTER. mad4-1m DR.

SESCIaL ANNOUNCEMENT FROM THE “ FAMOUS.” As the Spring season approaches, and a change of Avparel becomes necessary, the question arises as to where the handsomest selection of SEASONABLE CLOTHING can be seen, and where prices are the Jeast affected by the recent sdvancein Woolen Mate- rials. tion for the rise in Woolen Goods. The fact It is hardly needful to speak of the founda- of the raw material advancing in price from 35 cents per Tb. one year ago to 58 cents per Ib. to-day, makes it clearly apparent to all that soods bought by dealers during the past few months MUST be sold at a very considerabie increase over last year’s prices. It was our good fortune to make selections for this Spring and Summer 80 early that the increased prices which are demanded by others in our line of trade need not be asked by us, and in opening our new establishment in this city we have determined to offer our elegant assortment, embracing all the Latest Novelties of the Season, at the lowest rates prevailing at any time during last year. Every arti- cle will be found marked in PLAIN FIGUBES, with the BOTTOM PRICE, which we guarantee to be lower than any house in the city will sell the same quality of goods. An examination is invited, which we think will convince the most credulous that we are speaking facts. . E. STROUSE & CO., PROPRIETORS OF THE “FAMOUS.” No. 400 Seventh st. n.wey ap7 CORNER D.
