This company will commence business January 1. 189;$. The Genuine and the Sham Evc-y good thing hss its host of imi tators; every genuine article its counter feits. The imitators always cboose 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 "sc-and-So s, the public may depend upon it that "So-and-So's" 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 imitations of Allcock's porous plasters. Allc ick's porous plaster is t'ae standard of excellence the world over, and its im itators in their cry that theirs is "as good as Allcock's" are only emphasizing this fact acd admitting "Allcock's" to be the acme of perfection, which it is their highest ambition to imitate. Tbe differ ence bat ween the genuine and these imi tationf, which copy only general appear ance, is as wide as that between copper and geld. The only safe way for purchasers is to always insist upon having Allcock's por ous piasters. They are the only perfect plasters ever produced. Suicide of & feloux City Man. San Diego, Cal., Dec. 81.
