Deaf Three Years
 Hears Instantly

Mrs. L. F. Knoderer, living at 150 Spruce Street. Columbus. Ohio, is re- toicing over the sudden restoration of her sense of hearing after being de- prfved of it for nearly three years. says a letter from that city,
 The cause of her affliction is sup posed to have been catarrh which 80 anected the right ear as to totally destroy the hearing.
 A few days ago when reading a newspaper she noticed an account of a similar case that had been benefited by l.. T. Cooper's new medicines and | as Cooper happened to be in the city at that time, went immediately to see him. She was told that the prepara- tions would benefit her and consented to demonstration. A few drops of one of the remedies were poured into her ears and then the members were gently rubbed until the aural cavity was saturated and the medicine was absorbed. Tests were made and ac- cording to her statement, Mrs. Knod- erar could hear everything from the afflicted ear within five minutes after the demonstration was made.
 When seen afterwards she was en- thusiastic in her praise of tho young man and his medicines and verified the story. Her statements were prac- tically a reiteration of the above.
 There seems to be no end to the re- markable work that Cooper is doing with his medicines and results in val rious cases that have recently been made public seem to prove his claim that they can be used in the home with as much success as though applied by him or his physicians.
 Several cases of similar nature have been reported in Montgomery and at F. G. Fow1er's drug store where the preparations are sold 1t Is said that the sale has been enormous. The preparations are known as Cooper's New Discovery and Cooper's Quick Re- lief.

MT. Hill was engaged in pumping some alcohol from a barrel and the boy was bolding the receptacle when either he or MT. Hill is supposed to have stepped on a match causing the clothing was in a full blaze in a few moments and but for his screams which cuickly summoned aid he would have suffocated.

so dull that they let off their clerks and during the afternoon they closed their doors. The barbecue dinner which was given at Elkdale Park by the Trades Council was greatly en- joyed by large crowd.
 The festivities of the day at Elkdale Park started this morning and at an early hour the ears began taking crowds to the park. About II o'clock the speaking began and the program arranged a few days ago was carried out with the exception that Hon. w. B. Craig did not address the assepbled crowd on account of his being con- fined to his bed with Illness. MT. W. H. Stanley of Birmingham, President t of the Union Lable League, addressed the crowd and pleased them very greatly The theme of his address was that of organized labor. He dwelt upon the many phases of this question and pointed out to the public the advantage of organized labor. His address was well received and the speaker was loudly applauded when he concuded his address.
 Col w. w. Quarles of this city fol- lowed MT. Stanley with an address. Colonel Quarles -is a most fluent speaker and he was never heard to better advantage than he was this afternoon. He told his audience that he was not familiar with the many and various phases to organized labor and the good which accrued from the different unions. but that he hear tily endorsed the effort of labor to organize itself. He then sioke upon the different sides of the child labor law of the State of Alabama.
 At the conclusion of the address by Colonel Quarles, the assembled crowd went out from the pavilion into the grove and partook of the barbecue dinner and Brunswick stew which had been prepared for the occasion. The crowd to the dinner was an immense one and 1t was estimated this after non at least 2,0OO people took their midday dinner at the park. After the dinner had been served and at o'clock dancing was started and which was indulged in by the young people until o'clock this evening. The day was most pleasantly spent by all who attended the celebration of Labor Day and the occasion is one that will long be remembered.
