No Truth in the Stories That He Has
Broken His Leg.
CANOE PLACE INN, Aug. h-[Specidl 1-There
is absolutely no truth in the rumor now
current to the effect that Sullivan has
broken down in his training, that he is
drinking. that he has Quarreled with his
trainer. Phil Casey; that he has broken his
leg, or that Trainer James Robinson, of the
Manhattan Athletic Club, is to supersede
Casey as q trainer. Sullivan has been under
such close surveillance by half dozen men
that it would have been impossible for him
to commit any breach of discipline without
being seen.
The feature yesterday at this place
was the arrival of Miss c. Tuthill
from Bridgeport. She is q tall, handsome
young woman, about 20 years old. She
came here to take a tramp with Sullivan,
which she did this morning in fine style.

Different Forms of Catarrh.

The above case of Mr.. Hagan clearly do
scribes the form of catarrh known as dry
catarrh or sneezing catarrh. Like many
other patients because his nostrils were not
filled with mucus, it was dif1cllt to make
him understand that all his symptoms were
due to catarrh.
Dry catarrh, or dry and parched condi-
tion of the mucus lining membrane of nose
and throat is generally the form of catarrh
that causes the agonizing neuralgia head
aches both in the front and back portion of
the head, with q singing, aching pain in the
throat. The mouth is often parched and dry
and tongue f1ssured and sore. The
muscles of the back part OF the neck
oftel feel sore and stiff and pains
fit at times through the chest to shoulder
blade. So accustomed are Drs. Copeland,
Hall and Byers to find an irritable condi-
tients complaining of intense pain in the
back of the head with desire to draw the
head backward, that they have come to ac-
cept this condition OF the throat as the
cause of the exhausting occipital headaches
nervous people often suffer with. They ex-
plain it by the theory that the pam is re-
fected by the nerves concerned in the
pharyngeal Inflammation, and that this
theory is correct is borne out by the fact
that as soon rs this irritation is reduced by
their treatment the headaches cease.
This Inflammation often extends up-
ward into the ears and eyes, and down.
ward into the lungs and stomach, causing
long train of symptoms that cannot be ex-
planned any other way than by accepting
this plain truth.

During Saturday.
South to Vest
Winds

The barometer is below the normal east

decrease of barometric pressure from the
Lower Lake region and the st. Lawrence
Valley to the southeastern slope of the

The K.yston. Road Race To-Day.

This afternoon at 1 o'clock the Keystone's
15-rnile road race will take place, and while
it is expected that good time will be made
the roads are notin as good condition as was
anticipated. Secretary McGowin rode over
the course during the week and found that
at Economy the cutters had been dug out
and their contents strewn upon the road,
making rough riding for q considerable dis
tance. Then at Leetsdale the road masters
have strewn gravel over what was an ex-
cellent stretch of hard-surfaced road. OF
course the gravel will make the road a great
deal better later on, but at present the sur
face is too rough for rapid riding.
Most of the riders will go down to SewicK-
ley on the O'Clock train this afternoon and
ride from there to Hayesville. but those
who go to witness the start and finish will
leave on the 2:l6 train, which stops at Hayes
vile, and will return few minutes after 5
o'clock. If the weather holds good there
will be a large crowd in attendance.

A BOLD MOVE.

Business-Like Basis.

Putting the Practice of Medicine on .
Business-Like Basis.
Since Drs. Copeland, Hall and Byers de-
cided one month ago to treat all diseases
and all patients for S. q month, medicine
included. their already large practice has
almost donbled, proving that their efforts to
render medical assistance to suffering hu-
manity at reasonable rates has been appre-
ciated. Heretofore this rate applied only to
catarrhal troubles and kindred ailments.
This small sum brings the services Of q
physician within the reach OF every one and
does away with expensive drug bills. There
Is no excuse now for a sufferer to silently
endure his disease for fear of the expense at
tached to consulting a specialist.
All skin and blood diseases, such as CO.
zema, hives, blotches, pimples, acne, ring
worm, tetter, salt rheum, chronic ulcers,
All kidney, bladder and rectal troubles,
such as diabetes, Bright's, gravel, piles,
flssure, fistula, ETC., are also treated for %
month, medicine included.
Rheumatism, neuralgia, lumbago, scrof-
ula, dyspepsia, chronic diarrhoea, dvsentery,
constipation, dropsy, liver complaint, jaun-
dice, glanduar tumors, excessive accumu-
lation of flesh, etc, are successfully treated
for IS month.
Drs. Copeland, Hall and Byers are the
originators of the IS a month treatment, or
the system OF reducing the practice OF med
icine to business-like basis; and though
many may initiate their style OF advertis-
ing, the thorough, conscientious and skill.
ful method of their treatment can be ap-
preached by none.

Mr.. George Hagan, Employed at the Clin-
ton Mills, Describes His sufrsrings From

Mr.. Hagan, puddler by occupation, 10

it. had terrible neuralgia pains all through
my head, and, although my nostrils wero
perfectly clear AID l could breathe well
through them, they often felt dry and
parched, the same as my throat, tongue and
mouth.
my stomach also became affected to such
an extent that lost nv appetite and what
little ate caused pain and heavy feeling,
with bloating and belching up of sour gas.
Drs- Copeland, Hall and Byers whom con-
suited. explained to me tnat all these
troubles came from neglected colds causing
q catarrhal inflamma tion OF the parts and
promised a cure If would attend faithfully
to taking my medicine, but said would

three or four months.
