S~outherners Excited
Over Cooper's Work.

There seems to be no let-up in
the excitement over the remark
able cures of stomach trouble and
rheumatism that l.. T. Cooper, the
young philanthropist, is effecting
with his medicines.
His work in New Orleans for
the past few weeks has been Great
ing wide attention in that section
of the country. On the streets,
in hotels and other places Coop
er's cures are the sole topic of
conversation. He is discussed
everywhere, and the newspapers
contain daily reports of his work.
A number of startling cases have
been cited and the names of the
most prominent citizens have APP
peared in connection, which facts
seems to verify the truth of the
reports.
In an interview with Mr.. J. T.
Russell. a we'll known business
man of New Orleans, living at
1888 Delachaise street, who is re-
ported as having been cured of
rheumatism with the new medi-
cines, he said: ut is true that |
have been wonderfully benefited
by Cooper's New Discovery medi-
cine in a very severe case of Sciat-
ic Rheumatism, from which / suf-
fered for some time. ] have used
Cooper's medicines one week and
the results have been truly marvel
Gus. Before that time | was al
most helpless, and now | can use
the afflicted parts freely without
the least pain. The swelling and
/, soreness disappeared soon after l
began using the treatment and
now | am improving every day,
Perth Amboy evening news., 1906-10-30

Mr.. A. J. Erskine, another pro-
minent influential man of New
Orleans, living at 1905 Annuncia-
ton street, whose name was
among those printed in a recent
issue of the Picayune, was seen
and talked freely of his exper-
fence. He was enthusiastic in his
praise of Cooper and said: 81 am
surprised myself, at the wonderful
results / have obtained from the
use of these preparations, for my
case was a most obstinate one and
has baf1ed medical skill for the
past three years. l have been suf-
fering from Inflammatory Rheu-
matism and sometime ago | went
to a hospital, where | received the
best of care and was treated by
several physicians, but without re-
lief. One of my knees was great
ly swollen, and so sore that I
could not bear to touch it. ] had
tried everything ] I've heard of,
and had about given up hope of
ever getting better when / began
to read the stories of Cooper's
marvellous work. | determined to
see what his remedies would do
for me, however, and began using
them. At the end of the first
week the swelling had been re-
duced and l could use my limb
freely and without the least pain.
l have been improving right along
and now I feel better than | have
for some time"
Cooper's preparations are well
known in this city, and have eff
fected some remarkable results
here. At Sections Pharmacy, the
local sales agency for the me-
d~icines, it is said that the demand
has been enormous, and that the
sales are still on the increase.

LA FOLLETTE'S DENIAL
Not Planning New Party, but Time
Ripe to Fight Corporation.

OREGON, Wis, Oct. 30:-Senator
La Toilette denies that he favors the
organization of a new national polit-
ical party to stand against the en-
c~roachments of corporations upon
representative government.
He said that this struggle of the
people against the control of govern
ment by the corporation was bigger
and broader than any party, and that
if the people would win they must
disregard party lines and stand to-
gether for the interest of the whole
people.
81 do not NEAR that there should
be any third party or a new party
he said. 81 shall stay in the republi-
can party because | believe | can dc
better service there and get quicker
results. There are men in the demo.
cratic party who are trying to purge
and cleanse their own party. God
bless them for their work. / have
never supported men simply because
they were republicans. If you re.
member the campaign of 1906,
spoke against the reelection of re.
publican candidates whose records
showed that they we're not to be
trusted. | did that in several sena-
torial and assembly districts, and |

MRS. EDDY ALIVE.

CONCORD, N. H., Oct. 30.-Christian
Scientists in this center of their faith
were greatly excited by the publica-
ton in New York of a story that the
seclusion maintained by Mrs. Mary
Baker G. Eddy for more than three
years was designed to hide the raw
ages of cancer and that she was being
p%ersonated on her supposed daily
drives by Mrs. PAMELA j. Leonard Of
Brooklyn to conceal her condition. De-
malls came from all sides.
Professor Herman s. Herring, for
merly of the faculty of Johns Hopkins
university and now first reader of the
First Church of Christ. Scientists, in
this city. declared that Mrs. Eddy call
ed at his home in this city while on
her usual drive and talked with him
for some minutes, evincing animation
and intellectual keenness.
So anxious were the leaders to halt
any such idea that Mayer Charles II.
Corning of this city, who Is not con-
nected with the Christian Scientist
church, was taken to call on Mrs.
Eddy by General Frank S. Streeter,
her personal counsel and member of
the Republican national committee.

CASE SETTLED
OUT OF COURT
Miss Sophia johnson Not to Sue
for Broken Arm Sustained in
Fall Over CurhstOne.

The case of Miss Sophia Johnson
against the city of Perth Amboy, has
been settled out of court.
Miss Johnson tripped over a pile
of curbstones on Market street, near
Second street, and received a broken
arm, on the night of October 10. It
is understood the city was not to
blame for the placing of these curbs
at that particular spot, although they
had been ordered away from another
place, by a city official. Therefore
reimbursement was looked for from
the contractor doing the city's work.
The matter has now been adjusted
satisfactorily.

E. A. Stevens, candidate for United
States senator; Congressman William
Sulzer, James E. MARITIME, Joseph T.
Hague, James e. Desmond, Harry G.
Coulter and others.
On Wednesday evening Charles N.

in a mass meeting in the Republican
Club rooms. An invitation by indie.
pendent voters has been sen out
calling for a meeting Friday night in

cipally by Mayor ]. B. Furber, ex-
pressing his views of the needs of the

ROUND SHOULDERS.

Do you keep sharp watch on the
children's spinal columns and should
ers?
When there is any inclination to
STOPPING shoulder look into the mat
ter at once to find the cause.
1t may be the clothing in some
way the hose supporters will be put
on the easiest way, and hat is front
and fastened to the underwaist.
This makes a pull on the chest
and drags it over. 1t takes only just
a little more pull than on the back,
and down drops the chest.
Are the bands around the waist
weighing on the muscles that are
made to hold up the body so they are
not strong enough to work when so
much is put on them?
The boy gives way under the drag
of an ill-ftting coat collar which is
too thick.
See that there is no pull or weight
on the back of the neck.
When nothing pulls the young
spine over or presses it down and the
proper muscles are allowed to hold
it up, the back will usually be
straight and fiat.
Want of pure air to fill the lungs
and the drag of poorly arranged
clothing has given many a child an
incurable hump or a sunken chest
for life.

PORT NORRIS, Oct. 30:-Duripg
the first week in November the mem
bers of the Boards of Health for the
states of Pennsylvania and New Jer-

cuss the probability of typhoid fever
germs lurking in the waters of Maui

WOMAN ON TRIAL.
Murder Case Begins in Somerset County
Much Interest Manifested.

SOMERVILLE, Oct. 3O:-Florindo
Illario was placed OF trial for the
murder of Alexander Dipalo, a hotel
June 4. in the Somerset court yester-
day. The jury was impanelled after
both sides had made several chal
lenges.
In opening for the state Prosecutor
Rogers told the jury of the elope-
and of their subsequent return to this
place, where they lived apart until
the day of the murder, when Dipalo
went to the woman's boarding house
and found her alone. He said that
Dipalo was found on the real por-
prisoner confessed that she had killed
him.
The most damaging evidence
against the accused yesterday was
given by three Italian girls, Fren-
cesca Alicio, Jessafino Dipalo and
Leonora Sariano, who were her
friends. When she had returned
from her trip with Dipalo these
friends met her at the house of Fill
mino Condo. They asked why she
had gone away with a married man
and she replied that he had promised
her that he would get a divorce from
his wife and marry her.
But" she continued, II do not
want any one to mix up in this mat
ter. He has done this thing to me
and / will kill him. | do not want
any one to interfere"
The defense endeavored to show
that the Italian word used by the de-
PENDANT in this conversation meant
ruin and not kill, but the witnesses
held to their statement.
