Letter From Assemblyman Hoag.

STATE OF NEW YORK, ASSEMBLY CHAMBER.
ALBANY, April IL, 1888.
During my temporary residence here the
past winter | contracted severe cold, which
for time confined me to my room and
rendered me unfit to attend to my duties. |
not ouly suffered all the inconvenience which
usually attend a heavy cold, but was afflicted
with a tightness in the chest, companied
with severe pain, which made breathing
difficult and rest impossible. I tried the
usual remedies-cough drops, cough cordials,
SC, but received no substantial, relief until |
applied Allcock's Porous Plasters on my
back and chest.
These put on when retiring. and was
delighted to find myself much better the next
morning. In two days l was well. This,
and the experience l have had with Allcock's
Plasters in my family, has convinced me
that for coughs, colds, sprains, bruises rheu-
marism and local pains. Allcock's Porous
Plssters are the quickest and most effective
remedy extant. JOHN HoAG.

In Relation to Cats.

HALLowELL, March 4, 1884.
Mr.. EDIroR-In the last number Of the
Hallowell Register, the editor mentioned that
the BOYS who attend the Classical School
had tortured pet cat by poisoning it in an
abortive experiment, and advised them to
read baby story on the first page of the
Register. The editor is greatly mistaken; i,
was not pet cat nor was it tortured as he
supposed. If his death should be as easy
(and we hope it wild as that of the cat, his
mind would be much easier, and this would
enable him to make many improvements in
his paper which would be highly acceptable
to his subscribers (if he has any,
