No external remedy ever yet devised has
so fully and unquestionably met these
three prime conditions as successfully as
Allcock's Porous Plssters. They are safe
because they contain no deleterious drugs
and are manufactured upon scientific
principles of medicine. They are sure be-
cause nothing goes into them except in
gradients which are exactly adapted te
the purposes for which plaster is re-
quired. They are speedy in their action
because their medicinal qualities go right
to their work of relieving pain and re-
storing the natural and healthy per
Torrance of the functions of muscles,
nerves and skin. Do not be deceived by
Misrepresentation. Ask for Ancock's, and
let no solicitation or explanation induce
you to accept substitute.

Nicholas O'Brien's Frightful Attack
Upon His Wife-Dragged From Her
Bed to tho Roadside.
A foul and brutal murder has been COM
mitted in Litch6eld. Nicholas O'Brien,
who with his family lives in dilapidated
farm house on the road to Milton, returned
home late Tuesday night from attending a
funeral. He was intoxicated, and while in
drunken frenzy pulled his wife out of
bed by the hair, dragged her out-of-doors
and into the street and toward Litchfeld,
q distance of several rods, where he kicked
and pounded her for several minutes, she
screaming as loud as her weakened condi-
ton would permit. As a final impulse of
his drunken rage he lifted her up by the
hair, and clutching her throat with one
| hand, choked her until she was almost in.
sensible. He then gave her a push into
the weeds by the roadside and returned tc
the house, where he threw himself upon
the bed and was soon in drunken sleep
Two hours later David Buel, who lives
distance of about one mile from the O'Bri
en- place, had occasion to go toward Milton
and passing the O'Brien house his atten
ton was attracted by an sgonizing moan
ing which came from the bushes by tn
roadside. He hurriedly proceeded TOWARD
the sounds, and in the bushes found Mrs
O'Brien, covered with mud and blood ant
in dying condition.

as tenderly as possible to the house an,

The annual convention of the repubi-
can league clubs of the United States will
open at Buffalo Thursday, September /,

turing purposes.
ARRANGEMENTS have been made with the
different transportation companies and
summer resorts by which reduced rates
may be obtained by those of our visitors
who desire to see the other surroundings
about the lake and river.

mittee expects to obtain special rates from
