The Nurses Delight,

Every experienced nurse knows the value of
a remedy which, without being an anodyne,
will relieve soreness of the limbs or stiffness of
the joints, and enable a patient to sleep quietly
and naturally.
Just such a remedy are ALLcocK's POROUS
PLAsTERs. Placed on the chest or on the back,
If necessary cut into strips aud placed over the
muscles of the limbs, they work marvels in the
way OF soothing and quieting restlessness.
Being perfectly simple and harmless in their
com position, they can be used freely, and
many a sufferer has thanked them for night
of quiet rest, grateful both to him and those
who care for him.

THE LAW ALL RIGHT.

The letter from w. e Thomas, clerk

beyond question that the city scavenger
is instructed by law to use an odorless

tho ordinance. 1t now rests with the
mayor, the police and the board of
health to enforce it. The need for
proper sanitary appliances in Roanoke
is moro pressing that ever. The coun-
try is eniering upon year in which
the health of the world is menaced by

MUsCATINE, Ia., May r. The residence
of John Mahin, N. Rosenberger and f. NJ.
Kessinger were blown up by dynamite and
totally wrecked. No one was injured, but
the families had an almost miraculous
escape from death. The crime is laid at
the doors of the saloon men who are being
prosecuted for violating the prohibition
law. No arrests have yet been made. Mr..
Mahin, who is now serving his fourth term
as postmaster at Muscatine, has been a
staunch supporter of all prohibition move
ments of late years. He has been editor
and publisher of the Muscatine Journal
since 1852 j. Harvey, president of the
Iowa temperance alliance, came to this
place few days ago to conduct the prose-
cution of saloonkeepers.. The latter blamed
Mr.. Mahin individually for the suits and
have been very bitter against him.
Mr.. Rosenberger is an attorney who has
assisted in prosecuting the liquor men, and
Mr. Kcssingcr is retired capitalist who
has been individually very active in move
ments against the grogshop keepers. The
three residences were in different parts of
