Cooper Fought to Retain Formula Which

Among statements obtained recently
from users Of this medicine that ls
arousing such universal discussion is
one from Mrs. Emma Stanley, living
in Chicago, at 713 Washington Boule-
ward, who said: Perhaps l had the
most complicated case that Mr.. Cooper
had to deal with. | was troubled for
years with my ctomach. | consulted
with doctors and took many patent
medicine preparations without result.
My stomach was in such wretcheo
shape that l could not enjoy a meal
that | ate.
" was very nervous, and could
hardly sleep; | hac a roaring in my
ears and dancing spots before my eyes.
felt very bad and weak Then there
was very sore spot at the pit Of my
stomach that nearly set me wild.

and decided to try 1t. / used four bot
ties, and the improvement in my case

Pleads Not Guilty.

John Williams of Somerset Junction
was given a hearing in the Skowhe-
gan Municipal Court, Friday MORN
ing, charged with the murder of
Harry Seasdream at the BARLEY
House in that place on the previous
Monday. Williams was at Greenville
when Sheriff Smith arrived. This
being outside of the limits of Somer-
set county Mr.. Smith could not arrest
him but y illiams consented to come
to Skowhegan and was placed under
arrest after his arrival here.
At the hearing the state was repre-
scented by County Attorney T. j.
Young and Gould & Lawrence APP
peared for the respondent. Williams
was not put upon the stand but the
circumstances of the shooting were
testified to by James Fletcher, who
was a companion of Seasdream's on
Monday afternoon, also by Thos. Fen
ton and H. T. Armstrong, who were
eve witnesses. From the evidence it
seems that Seasdream and his com
panion, both intoxicated, had been
conducting themselves in disorder
ly manner at the BARLEY House,
earlier in the afternoon, and had done
some damage to its furnishings. They
went away but returned later and
were elected by Williams Seas
dream procured an axe and commence
ed smashing down the outer door. 1t
was while he was thus engaged that
Williams thrust his shotgun through
the door and fired with fatal effect.
The witnesses gave it as their opinion
that, had Seasdream gotten inside,
he would made a murderous assault
on the first person he met.
Judge Bachelor deemed it his duty
to hold the respondent for trial at the
Supreme Judicial Court and fixed his
bonds at $4,000. These were furnish
ed by Henry BARLEY of Greenville,
proprietor of the hotel, where the
shooting occurred, the second signer
being a Milo citizen.

L. T. Cooper, the man who believes
that so per cent. of all III health OF
this generation is caused by stomach
trouble, Is fast winning a national
faith In his theory. His claim is now
admitted by surprising number Of
people throughout the country, and he
Is gaining new adherents every day.
While speaking of his success in a
recent interview, Mr.. Cooper said: Il
believed ten years ago that any one
who could produce formula that
would thoroughly regulate the stom-
ach would have fortune. When |
got hold Of this formula / knew with.
In six months that | was right, and
that my fortune was made. | called
the medicine Cooper's New Discovery
although l did not get up the formula.
have owned 1t, however, for over
three years. / have had one lawsuit
over it, which / won in the courts.
When 1t was settled The Cooper Medi-
cine Company became the only firm In
the world that can prepare the medi-
cine. The preparation has sold like
wildfire wherever introduced. AS |
have said before, it Is successful gim-
ply because 1t puts the stomach in
perfect shape, then nature does the
rest. There are any number of com.
plants never before associated with
stomach trouble that the medicine has
alleviated in thousands of cases."

Civic League Lecturers.

Three of the field workers for the
Christian Civic League of Maine pass
ed last Sunday in town, speaking both
morning and evening on subjects EN- :
braced in the work of the League
These gentlemen were E. H. Emery
deacon in the Congregational
Church of Sanford, who has been
connected with the Christian Civic
League, as field secretary, since June
1906; Rev. H. n. Pringle of Water
vile, secretary of the League for the
past seven years; and Rev Israel
Luce, pastor of the Methodist Church
at Old Orchard, whose work with the
League commenced about years
since.
These gentlemen occupied the pull
pits of the Congregational, the Meth :
odist and the First Baptist Churches
in the morning and in the evening
lectures, both illustrated and similar
in character, were given at the last
two churches named, Mr.. Pringle ad-
dressing the audience at the Metho-
dist and Mr.. Emery at the Baptist
church. The lantern slides were in
tended to show the work of the
League and the incidents thus de-
picted were of great interest. Among
them were pictures of several Maine
barrooms, pictures of slot machines,
seized through the efforts of the
League, and picture of the Brown
family at "Happy Hallow," in West
Athens in our own county
These addresses here were in pur-
suance of the plan followed by the
League for the past nine or ten years,
during which they have held over
two thousand meetings with an aver
age attendance of 200 each. To give
an idea of their recent activity in
this line it may be mentioned that
during the month of October they
held 81 meetings in the towns OF
Washington county, an average of
nearly two day. The plans of the
League contemplate the employment
of two more field secretaries i'll the
early future if their finances permit
of this addition to the force.

COMFORTING WORDS.
Many a Skowhegan Household Will
Find Them So.

TO have the pains and aches of a
bad back removed; to be entirely
free from annoying, dangerous uri.
nary disorders is enough to make
any kidney sufferer grateful. To
tell how this great change can be
brought about will prove comfort
ing words to hundreds of Skowhe-
gan readers.
A Mclntire, well-known resident of
Skowhegan, Maine, and living at 81
Main ST., says: ~ had been troubled
with kidney complaint and inflamma-
tion of the bladder for three or four
years, and during that time was sub
ject to severe attacks Of backache.
On one occasion about two years ago
/ was laid up with it for about two
months and under the DOCTORS care.
Since then | had had similar attacks,
though not quite so severe, and
frequently | have been confined to
the house for two or three days at a
time. When | was laid up entirely
my back used to ache with a heavy
constant throb. Reading of Doan's
Kidney Pills ! concluded TO try them
and got box at Geo. +. SIMPSONS
drug store, now Sampson and Avore's.
This remedy seemed to be just the
thing for my case. | got better almost
from the start, and the pain in my
back soon disappeared and | was rid
of the other symptoms. | do feel an
occasional touch of rheumatic pain
now, but nothing in comparison with
what ! suffered before l used Doan's
Kidney Pills. | am seventy years
old, and am satisfied to know remedy
that can depend upon for relief in
every case. My wife also used Doan's
Kidney Pills and they always help

Death of William Howes.

Mr. William Howes, an aged and
highly respected citizen of the town
of Concord, died quite suddenly on
the LIST day of November Of heart fail
ure superinduced by slight cold and
the infirmities of old age. He APP
peared to be in his usual health and
spirits until within few hours previ-
Gus to his death. Deceased was born
on the 28th of November 1918, and was
consequently, nearly "a years of age,
being the oldest inhabitant of the
town where he resided. In former
years he took an active part in town
affairs, serving as a member of the
board of municipal officers for mum
Der of terms, and was the Democratic
candidate for Representative to the
Legislature in 1865, but was defeated
by the Wing candidate. In politics he
has been lifelong Democrat, having
voted for every Democratic candidate
for President since 1884. At the last
gubernatorial election he appeared at
the polls and cast his ballot for his
favorite candidates.
In 1912 Mr.. Howes was married to
Miss Mary Pierce of Moscow, who
still survives, after nearly IS years OF
married life. He is also survived by
three sons, Luther w, and Fred of
Vermont, Simeon of Concord, and one
daughter, Mrs. Augustus Davis of
Skowhegan. The interment was in
the beautiful village cemetery at Bling
ham.
The aged widow and bereaved fam
lily, who mourn the loss of a kind hus-
band and father, have the heartfelt
sympathy of a host of true hearted
friends, who mourn with them the loss
OF loved and respected citizen.

Matters Telephone.

1t will be recalled that certain class
es of telephone service, in the terri
tory embraced by the Skowhegan ex
change, previous to August 1st, had
the privilege of calling Waterville
subscribers without paying toll
charge. This access, toll free, to
Waterville and adjacent towns, was
cut off by the Skowhegan exchange
on August LIST, a reduction in annual
rental, supposed to be a compensat-
ing advantage, going into effect at the
same time. Waterville subscribers
have, however, continued to have the
use of the lines to Skowhegan, with
out payment of toll until Nov /, but
since that date they have been put on
an even basis with Skowhegan and
must pay if they wish to talk with us.
Some changes in the toll rate have
recently been made and subscribers
connected with the Skowhegan ex
change may now talk to Boston for
$1.05 instead of $1.15 as formerly
This calls to mind the fact that for
many years the sum of the Skowhegan
to Waterville rate, which was Is cents,
and the Waterville to Boston charge,
so cents a total of 90 cents was 20
cents less than the Skowhegan to
Boston through rate. This was an OBJ
viously unfair discrimination against
Skowhegan users of the telephone and
its existance was called to the atten
ton of the telephone management on
more than one occasion, but, while they
promised that the matter should be
investigated, injustice was permitted
to continue until the recent readjust-
ment of schedules, which makes the
combined rate of 80 cents and Is cents,
just the equal of the Skowhegan to
Boston rate.
Another change recently made,
which the users of the telephone in
this section accept with good deal
of regret, is the cancelling of the
night rate. For many years the usual
rule with the telephone company has
been to make the rate for calls be =
tween six p. M, and six a. M, just
half the day rate. This was ndoubt-
eddy done with view to relieving the
wires during the busy hours of the
day and diverting a portion of the
business to the night hours when calls
would not be as frequent. The low
rate at night became widely known
and must have resulted in large
amount of business from people who
would not have paid The day rate at
all 1t is to be presumed that the tel
ephone company must believe that
their revenues will be increased by
abolishing the night rate, but to the
average observer it would not appear
SO.
