Cooper Plan To Iout rheumatism Via
Stomach l. Successful.

Boston. Feb. 81 The most inter-
esting feature OF the enormous sale OF
the Cooper preparations. now going
ON in this city, Is what the MEDICINES
are actually accomplishing among the
people of Boston.
At the commencement of his Visit
here Mr. Cooper proph~ied that dur
ing the latter part Of HIS stay Ne
would receive hundreds Of callers
daily who came simply to thank him
for what the preparations had done.
lIe also stated that stomach trouble
IS the foundation of great many dis
eases, and tia; his New Discovery. az
Il is called, would prove very effective
in all cases OF RI emmatism, simply by
getting the stomach in working order.
That this prophecy has been full
filled cannot be doubted after a half
hour spent ut the young mans head
quarters, listening to what his callers
have to say.
A reporter who watched to ascer-
tain, If possible. some light on the
reasons for the immensely of Coopers
success. interviewed about twenty of
his callers yesterday afternoon. The
statements made By those seen indi-
cate that physicians who claim that
Cooper Is merely a'passing rad, have
no, looked into the facts.
Some. of these statements were as
follows.
Mr.. Michael Frederick. living Mt
los Clifton street. North Cambridge,
Mass. was enthusiastic. He said: II
have had a painful experience with
rheumatism and stomach trouble. The
rheumatism affected my knees and
feet. which at times were so painfully
swollen that could not bear my
weight upon them. and caused me a
great deal of suffering My stomach
was all out OF ordcr-poor appetite
and distress after meals ! tried both
doctors and patent medicines, but
neither did me any good.
II heard OF Cooper and his theory
on diseases. aud was persuaded to
test his claims. ! am we'll satisfied
with results. and believe Cooper has
the right idea, for afttr taking soy-
cral bottles OF the New Discovery med
feline my stomach Is In iirst-class con-
dit,on. and the rheumatism has almost
entirely disappeared. | now eat wei
and experience no trouble whatever.
Another statement was made by +.
-. Clark. who lives AZ 40 Massachu-
sets avenue. Cambridge. Mass Mr.
Clark said: "My wife has had sciati0
rheumatism for ten years II becarre
20 bad in one limb that she could not
be trusted alone on the street for fear
Of falling. II caused her great suffer-
ing. and although she has tried nearly
everything. she was unable TO obtain
permanent relief.
"shc was persuaded to try the new
preparation introduced in Boston by
Mr.. Cooper aud the first bottle gave
immediate relief. In an she has taken
four bottles and now feels perfectly
well. She gives all the credit to the
Cooper medicines. | certainly appre-
clatc the benefit my wife has derived
for the use Of these remedies, and
do not hesitate to recommend them
to people suffering from rheuma-
tism"
Other statements taken from those
who had previously tried the mcdi-
zines seem TO Prov that Cooper's sue
cess throughout the country Is gen
uine.

The people of Seattle and King
county have not heretofore been much
alarmed concerning the condition OF
Gov.-elect Cosgrove's health because
they believed unfriendly newspapers
exaggerated the matter for the purpose
Of creating votes against the fine OLD
Pomeroy pioneer. Now that the cleo
ton is over and reports as to Mr.. Cos
groves condition continue unfavorable
a general alarm is felt. The Post-ln-
telligencer printed a dispatch from
Pomeroy Saturday morning to the efiec'
that owing to Mr.. Cosgrove's serious
illness he had been compelled &c
abandon for a time, at least, trip thai

A Wise Critic of Socialism

One Of the sanest and most search
ing criticisms of Socialism that has yet
appeared is an article by Professor
Clark of Columbia in the current num-
Der of the Atlantic. Some objections
are raised that have never been pre-
sented so clearly. The plants oil
socialism are mostly admitted and the
charm OF its idealism, but the writer
thinks that mere abolition of poverty
will not make all men fraternal.
He points out inequalities that
would continue to exist under socialism
endangering harmony. There would
still be the old difference between
city and country, and there would still
be the necessity Of arduous, unhealth-
full and dangerous occupations. The
assignment of men to these undesir-
able tasks would make constant trouble
for the officials. Officialdom would be
menace, and ambition would find its
greatest prizes in politics, with ample
chance for corruption.
Professor Clark sees three specific
consequences of socialism. They are:
First the check on technical progress
with the loss Of the incentive of per
sonal profit and competitive pressure
Second, the difficulty in enlarging the
capital of society. Collectivism ha'
never proved a good saver. We shoulc
all grow poor together. Third, cause
that would hasten the pauperizing o
society-the economic reasons tina
serve to keep down the size of familie
at present would be removed by thu
guaranty Of state support, and popula
ton would increase with Malthusia
leaps.-Spokesman Review.

Alcohol For Throat

To obtain the luster of polished
marble, which is so admired on throat
and shoulders displayed in a decollete
gown, do not use powder, as this will
surely show. Instead, give the neck
and shoulders warm, almost hot bath,
and while the skin is in a moistened
and fresh condition sponge the neck
and shoulders with clear cologne water.
The cologne will enter into the pores
and will make the shoulders appear
white and with the coveted luster. Al
cohol will serve the same purpose, but
the cologne is more refreshing and del
icate.

HOUSEHOLD HINT S
Remnants for Trimming

Probably in buying the material fol
your own or your children's fall dresses
you have bought little too much OF a
certain material and consequently have
some left over. These pieces will
come in decidedly handy for trimming
other dresses. If the material is plain
in color it may be used on plaid ma
terial, and if the material is plaid it
can be used effectively for trimming
plain colored material. This leftover
material can be made into collars, cuffs
and belts, and the narrow bias trimming
that are so popular.
Such leftovers can be successfully
and satisfactorily used for remodeling
children's last years dresses, which
may need freshening up. New collars
and cuffs may be put on it to freshen
the dresses up, and if the skirts need
frightening a strait or bias band
can be let into it. If the waist is at
all short wasted wide belt of the
material might be added to give length.
When utilizing such pieces there is
one thing to be avoided, and that is
to use the pieces on a dress which is
so faded as to appear even more faded
in contrast.

Tools For Sewing Room

No one can accomplish good results
in any kind of work if they have not
the proper tools with which to work.
If the sewing room is furnished neatly
and comfortably, twice the amount OF
work can be accomplished. One OF
the absolute necessities for every sew
ing room is a small kitchen table,
painted white. Into the drawer may
be put scissors, chalk, tape measures
and other small articles that are indis-
pensable in the sewing room. This
table can be used to lay the goods on
while cutting out garment and it will
be found a great help when it comes
to basting seams and hens of skirts
and other garments.
The sewing room should be fur
nished with a low chair for use when
at the sewing machine as high chair
is most uncomfortable, making one
lean over and strain the back. A large
mirror also is necessary, for when one
is fitting ones own clothes this will be
found most convenient. A great many
steps will be saved if roomy waste
basket, a dust pan and broom are also
kept handy.

Stripped of all exaggeration, the truth
seems to be that the governor-elect is
very sick man, but according to his
physicians, as quoted in the P.-I. his
condition is not precarious.
The impression has gone forth that
if anything were to happen to Mr.. Cos
grove prior to the inaugural ceremonies
Lieut.. Gov.-elect Hay would become
governor. Able constitutional lawyers
say there is a serious question as to
what would follow. Some claim that
Gov. Mead would hold Office until the
next general election two years hence;
others that Mr.. Hay, upon being sworn
in as lieutenant governor, would find a
vacancy to exist in the Office OF COVER
nor, and would become acting governor.
1t is certain that the law is not altogether
clear and it is likely that in the event
of Mr.. Cosgrove's illness terminating
fatally it would be necessary to have
the courts settle the matter.

Every precinct and hamlet in the
state might as we'll get ready to hear
the question of woman suffrage dis
cussed, for it's coming along just ar sure
as the local option issue. The leaders
of the suffragists in this state admit
that their cause has not yet reached the
momentum attained by local option,
but then they say: We've just begun
this thing; watch US from now on"
The member of the next Legislature
who thinks that he is going to escape
considering the woman suffrage ques-
ton makes a mistake. The local suff-
ragists are prepared to smoke him out
no matter how far into his den he may
go. So far as Seattle is concerned the
suffrage movement is attracting great
attention.
Younger people are taking it up.
These junior suffragists are taking by
storm some of the fashionable suburbs
with their banners and parties and
their propaganda generally. One club
has been formed in a girls Catholic
seminary and another among the under
graduates at the University who are
making a house-to-house canvass in
Seattle. Hundreds of signatures are
thus being secured. About eighty per
cent. of the women approached so far
have signed the petitions, and some of
them have become due-paying MEM
bers of the league.
The sufragists have opened head
quarters in this city at 1913 Arcade
building and are planning vigorous
campaign in the future. Ardent friends
from many sections are coming to their
support in ways that indicate very
marked interest in the movement. Mrs.
May Arkwright Hutton of Spokane has
provided the funds for a years rent
and Mrs. M. L. Baker, another Spo-
kane woman, has given the cost of
telephones. Local houses have sup
piled furniture and other fixtures.
