train and did what they could for
the injured man, who was suffering terri
bly,. The city's ambulance was called
and carried Cody to the Kentucky
livery stable, where physicians were soon
in attendance, but nothing could be done
Immediately but administer opiates. At l
O'Clock Cody was taken to the Sisters
hospital.
Nothing could be learned from Cody in
regard to the accident, he being uncon-
scious when seen by a GAZETTE reporter.
Cody is forJy-six years old, and has for
some time been caring for the horses of

widower, his wife and little girl dying

The Genuine and the Sham,

Every good thing has its host of imita-
tors; every genuine article its counterfeits.
The imitators always choose the most valu-
able and popular article to counterfeit SO
that when they claim their sham TO be equal
or as good OF the same as "So-auu-Sos, -
the public may depend upon it that so.
and-So's" article is the best If the kind. The
sham proves the genuine merit of the thing
it copies and never has this been been better
illustrated than by the limitations Of ALL-
COCKS Porous PLAsrERs.
ALLCoCK's Porous PLAsTERi is the stand
ard of excellence the world over and its
imitators in their cry that theirs is las good
as ALLCoCK's" are only emphasizing this
fact and admitting "ALLCooK's" to be the
acme of perfection, which it is their highest
ambition to initiate. The difference be-
tween the genuine and these limitations,
which copy only general appearance, is as
wide as that between copper and gold.
The only safe way for purchasers is to
always insist upon having ALLCoCK's
Porous PLAsTERs. They are the only per-
feet plasters ever produced. -dd.
