again."
A story with a touch of pathos was related
by gentlemen conversant with the facts that
illustrates the kindly nature of the philan-
thropist, and explains to a great degree his
wonderful hold upon the people.
A delicate woman whose face bore traces Of
care and suffering, and whose frail body was
distorted by the ravages of disease, called at
the Public Drug Store and asked for Mr.
Cooper, but he was out and the little woman
turned away resignedly, but sadly dis
appointed.
To her it was another stroke of misfortune,
and she turned her weary steps toward the
little home, where a sick husband was await
ing her return. But her disappointment was
of short duration, for Cooper was Just then
coming up the street Noting the careworn
look and hating step, he came quickly for
ward and assisted her carefully over the cross
ing. BY few kindly, well directed questions
he learned that she had been to call upon Mr.
Cooper to secure medicine for her sick hus-
band, who had been i'll for long time, unable
to provide even the barest necessities for his
little family.
The poor woman was greatly astonished
when she found that she was talking o Mr.
Cooper himself. He assisted her back to the
drug store, supplied her not only with the re-
CURED medicines, but also with generous
handful of silver, and sent her home with a
light heart and smiles shining through the
tears. That night big basket of groceries
was left at the little home, and it wasn't hard
to guess who was the donor.
Another feature of Cooper's visit to this
city, and one that has attracted great deal of
attention, is the many cures of rheumatism
that have been effected by the use of his rem
edes. Among the number who made state
ments on this subject was Louise Herman,
GAS North avenue, who said:
81 have for years been a sufferer from
rhuematsm and kidney complaint. At times
| was unable to walk and my back was very
weak My limbs were sore and swollen and
| was in very nervous condition. | could
not sleep at night, always felt tired in the
morning and would often have severe head
aches. My health had entirely broken down
and | began to feel as if life was not worth
Lying, had tried different medicines but all
to no avail. Nothing seemed to help me and
| did not know what it was to have a well or
happy day.
"One evening | was reading in the papers
what great results Cooper's New Discovery
and Quick Relief were accomplishing in Chi
cago, and | made up my mind to give them a
trial, and if they were what the papers said
they were, why Then | would surely receive
some benefit.
80 purchased some of the medicine and
after the first few days I noticed that my
sleep was more restfll and that the pain in
my limbs was no; so bad l kept on using
the medicine and after two weeks had near
ly recovered my health, can never say
enough about these medicines, for never
expected to see well day again, and here
am enjoying life with my friends, and all due
to the wonderful New Discovery.
81 want to say that it is the greatest remedy
in the world, for it has made me we'll woman
where all others failed"

CHANGED THE TYPES.
The Story of VeneefuI Wife and q
Bible Error

Bible Error.
In the famous library of WOlfenbut-
tel, in Hesse, is an old Bible which is
greatly treasured. 1t appears that in
that passage in Genesis where God
told Eve that Adam shall be her mas
ter and shall rule over her the German
translation is. "Und er soil dein herr
Sein." Herr" which means master,
does not occur in this Bible. but instead
there appears the word "narr," which
means fool.
The error was caused by quarrel
between the printer and his wife in the
year 1880 The wife was vengeful,
and in the silent watches of the night
she entered the room where her hus-
band had been setting type and mali
ciously changed herr" to MARI" The
printer was arrested after the book
had been printed and the mistake dis
covered. but his apprentice testified
that he saw the wife steal into the
composing room and alter the word.
The woman was imprisoned for bias
phemy and died in prison.

The barroom bully is an arrant cow

this saying of the late General Rose
Grams as his topic, a speaker at civic
Dstterment meeting discoursed on the
ways of the average bad man" of the
modern cities. He read from q writing
Of General Rosecrans, Familiarity known
as "Old Rosy" In which that officer de-
scribed regiment of men from Gin

were many of the barroom bully class
who had been pressed into the service

hundred dollars. When these men
came face to face with the grim fight

they realized that in warfare the rifle
makes the puny weakling match for
the muscular giant, the DULLES Just
turned pale and fiunked. They couldn't

would the steely bayonet Big brawny
bruisers who had been wont to swag-

frames and muscles were large, their

GIFTS FOR A MAN.
Prints of Famous Pictures Mounted on
SHAVING Pads,

The inexpensive prints Of famous
pictures may be utilized in many
charming ways in homemade Christ
mas gifts. A token for a man which
is just finished combines a shaving
pad and calendar. One of the stiff
gray photograph mounts is employed
as a foundation. The tissue shaving
leaves are clamped at the top of one
side with brass paper fasteners, which
not only hold them in place, but catch
ribbon bows on the other side. The
bows end the loop by which the card
is hung. On the calendar side Il copy
of one of Ruisdaers Hollandish wind
mill scenes covers the upper half of
the card. The calendar pad is pasted
below.
A neat matchbox for a bachelors
room is made by covering a square
with cream cOlored art linen which
has been appropriately embroidered in
some neat design. A miniature stein
can be fastened to the card by means
OF narrow ribbon placed at the top and
bottom of the stein and tied ON the
back of the card. This can be pur-
chased for 10 cents. They are decorat-
ed with sentimental quotations.

Effect of Fear on Wounds.

The fear of poison in lacerated
wound under certain circumstances is
in itself quite sufficient TO give u
wounded man tetanus, or lockjaw,
than which no more horrible complica-
ton exists. Thus for long time it
was thought that the natives of the
Solomon and other neighboring islands
used poisoned arrows, and many white
men shot by them died in tetanic con-
vulsions, including one very horrible
case of commander i'll the navy who
had made special study of tetanus
AT length the French governor of
New Caledonia. noticing that the symp-
toms exhibited were not consistent
with the use of any known poison, ap-
pointed Il medical commission to in
quire into the affair, when 1t was dis
covered that the arrows of the natives
were not poisoned at all, although con-
structed in such a way that small
piece of the bone point almost always
remained in the wound. The irritation
produced by this prevented the wound
from healing quickly, and the mental
disturbance produced by fear and per-
haps change of climate did the rest
1t was discovered at the same time
that the natives of other islands who
firmly believed in the poison theory
seldom suffered much Inconvenience
from the arrow wounds, because they
believed that the spells given them by
their own sorcerers prevented the pol
son from taking effect.-Pall Mall GA
