One Of the most interesting state.
ments made recently concerning the
much discussed Cooper theory. that
has spread over the country during the
past year, is made by h. II. Lambert,
n retired 'lusiEess man, whose home Is
at rs Fl lncis Street, Everett Mass.
Mr.. Lambert has this to say In con.
nection with Cooper and hts medi-
cines. Some time ago read an ar
tlcle about this man Cooper, In which
he claimed that stomach trouble was
directly responsible for most III health.
He went on to say that, although his
medicine did nothing but get the stom-
ach in sound condition, 1t wonld, In
many cases, remove kidney and liver
trouble and various other ailments.
He argued from this that the stomach
was the main cause Of sickness, and
stated that the success he has had
with his medicines was due entirely
to this fact.
II am now fully convinced that this
theory is correct, and believe Cooper
has a really remarkable medicine
judging from my own experience.
II have been q sick man for five

Shad Fishing Profitable

A few continued to fish fer shad this
week but very few were caught. From
five on down to none. While the law
permits fishing until June 18th, the
season practically closed June 1st. The
catch in the River:was fair and those
who went down the Bay did best. The
heavy rain makes the river water dirty.
The shad did not run up the River, be-
sides the long blockade of nets gave
them little opportunity.
Hope creek use to be as far as the Bay
fishermen located. The past few years
since the gasoline engines have come into
use Bayside is the headquarters of shad
fishermen. This year some fishermen
had eight and ten horse power engines
in large boats which ran nearly to the
Capes where they cast their large nets,
from 800 to 800 fathoms long and made
immense catches, giving less opportunity
for shad to ruiz up the stream.
While the catch was not larger than in
some recent Years with the ordinary size
nets, the higher prices gave a more pro-
ftable season. The catch in the Bay
will run from 1000 to $500 shad to a net
and in the river from l 900 to 1000.
The wholesale price ranged from ST.
to 500. Most of the season it was be
tween $40 and $50. The average will b,
about $40 OF more. Some cashed from
$1,000 to $500, making the best season
they had for years.

Railroad
JUNE ON THE GREAT LAKES.

Restful, delightful, interesting, and instructive, there is
no trip like that on the Great Lakes, those inland seas which
form the border line between the United States ard Canada.
And June is one of the most charming months in the year in
which to take the trip.
For comfort the fine passenger steamships of the Anchor
Line have no superiors. As wellappointed as the pa1atia1
ocean ~greyhounds which pillow the Atlantic, their schedule
allows sufficient time at all stopping places to enable the
traveller to see something of the great lake cities and to view
in daylight the most distinctive sights of the lakes, and the
scenery which frames them.
The trip through the Detroit River, and through Lake
St. Clair, with its great ship cana1in the middle of the lake,
thence through Lake Huron, the locking of the steamer
through the great locks at the 500, and the passage of the
Portage Entry, lake and Canal, across the upper end of
Michigan are novel and interesting features.
The voyage from Buffalo to Duluth covers over eleven
hundred miles in the five days journey. Leaving Buffalo,
the steamships Juniata and Tionesta, make stops at Erie,
Cleveland, Detroit, Mackinac Island, the 500, Marquette,
Houghton and Hancock, and Duluth.
The 1908 season opens on June 10, when the Steamer
Tionesta will make her first sailing from Buffalo.
sy1vania Railroad, and the service measures up to THE high
standard set by the Standard Railroad of America
An illustrated folder, giving sailing dates of steamers;
rates of fare, and other information is in course of preparation,
and may be obtained when ready from any Pennsylvania
Railroad Ticket Agent, who is also prepared to book passen-
gers who may desire to take this trip through the Great
Lakes and back.

Get your batting eyes open, boys.
With such twirling as Call was doing,
fremont was unbeatable.
Thomas had an off day, allowing Z hits
and giving three passes.
Our errors were costly.
Tominson made a great play of Feath-
erer's hit in the sixth.
Griffith held down the right garden.
He had two nice assists, one to first and
one to home.
"Buck's" gauge to second was a little
off.
Fish was in the game. Ray wants a
little practice and then look out, YOU

On May %, our boys held the Fremont
down to 3 hits and won / to 0. Last
Saturdays defeat evens up. Who'll
break the tie?
A more gentlemanly lot of ball players
has never came to Penn's Grove. We
would like a series of, say 10 games with
these boys, as they play the gam and do
not waste their time ~wrangling over the
