Every good thing has its host of imitators,
every genuine article its counterfeits. The
imitators always choose the most valuable
and popular article to counterfeit, so that
when they claim their sham to be equal, or
as good, or the same as "So-snd-So's," the
public may depend upon it that "So-and-
Sos article is the best of the kind. The
sham proves the genuine merit of the
thing it copies and never has this been
better illustrated than by the limitations of
Allcocks Porous Plasters. Allcock's
Porous Plasters is the standard of excel
lence the world over, and its imitators in
their cry that theirs is las good as ALI
cocks" are only emphasizing this fact and
admitting "Allcock's' to be the acme Of
perfection, which il is their highest am
bition o initiate. The difference between
the genuine and these limitations, which
copy only general appearance, is as wide as
that between copper and gold. The only
safe way of purchasers is to always insist
upon having Allcock's Porous Plasters
They are the only perfect plasters ever

Some days ago the HERALD published an
article setting forth that one George Rich
ardson, Of Ellengowan, WAS assaulted on
the highway while going to his home in
that place from town on Saturday night,
last The report was based upon the state
ments of Ellengowan people who claimed
to have knowledge of the facts and it set
forth that Richardson was beaten by Hun
garians who claimed they we're not given
good jobs in the mines by Richardson.
am now informed by parties who seem to
have good authority for the statement that
the facts previously published were not
correct. l am told that the assault was
witnessed by lady residing in the First
ward who does not care for notoriety and
therefore does not wish to have her name
mentioned. That the Hungarians did not
lay in ambush for Richardson and his
companion. That the parties met
on the highway. That Richardson struck
ole of the Huns and he and his companion,
Frost, ran away, but the Hungarisns over
took Richardson and beat him 50 unmerci-
fully that had it not been for the inter-
ference Of the woman who witnessed the
affair he might have been killed. My
informant says that he has travelled to
Ellengowan at night for years and has
never been molested, and he thought the
true facts of the case should be published
so that people who have occasion to travel
the road at night need not feel timid in
doing so.
