FOUGHT 10 RETAIN FORMULA
WHICH HAS MADE A FORTUNE

Among statements obtained recently
from users of this medicine that lis
arousing such universal discussion Is
one from Mrs. Emma Stanley. living
Iii Chicago, at 7I3 Washington Bouie-
ward, who said: Perhaps / had the
most complicated case that Mr.. Cooper
had to deal with. / was troubled for
years with my Etomach. consulted
with doctors and took many patent
medicine preparations without result.
My stomach was In such wretched
shape that I could not enjoy meal
that ate.
~ was very nervous, and could
hardly sleep; I had a roaring In my
ears and dancing spots before my eyes.
81 felt very bad and weak. Then there
was very sore spot at the pit OF my
stomach that nearly set me wild.
Il heard about the Cooper medicine
and decided to try 1t. used four bot
files. and the Improvement In my case
has been really wonderful. My nerves
have been quieted, and am SO much
improved that / feel like new wo-
man.
II cannot say too much for these
wonderful remedies, for they have
made me well"
We sell the Cooper medicines
and consider them we'll worth d trial
BY any one afflicted with chronic stom-
ach trouble and Its attendant diseases.

THE EARLY PIGS.
Comfort For the Mothe tiog and fIer
New Family.
BY J. II. GRIsDALE


For a week or ten days before far
rowing or parturition occurring in cold |
spring weather the SOW should receive /
a rather liberal ration of milk produc
ing food, such as bran mashes, chopped I
oats, skim milk, shorts, little oilneal |
etc, being careful always to see that
there are no signs of constipation, that
the bowels are quite loose.
The attendant should always be on
good terms with every SOW, but this
should very particularly be the case for
few weeks before, during the time Of
and for few weeks after parturition
BY little petting and q few kindness
es that appeal to her sense Of what is
nice the attendant can win the conf
dence Of almost any SOW. provided. OF
course. that lie has not previously won
her dislike.
Parturition should take place in a
pen specially prepared for the event
and for the accommodation Of the
mother and her family during the first
few weeks OF their lives. Only a small
amount of cut straw or chaff should be
given for bedding, thus no opportunity
being offered the little ones to get lost
or tangled up and SO exposed to danger
CT death from cold, hunger or crushing
by the SOW. AS a further protection q
board about eight inches wide placed
fiat horizontally about eight inches
from the floor along the wall, to which
| 1t should be firmly attached, will be
| found Of considerable value. affording
q space where the little ones can run
or be showed when the mother lies
| down.
Generally speaking, the less inter-
ference at parturition the better. Ii
| the weather be cold q good plan is to
have some clean dry straw In box or
barrel. into which the little ones may be
| placed as they are born. being first
dried with "A cloth. If parturition is
slow In cold weather 1t Is sometimes
wise to put some warm bricks Or fiat
stones In the box with the youngsters.
They should be allowed to suck as soon
% possible after birth.

noted men, friends or admirers of the

OF his remarkable career for the cause
Of human liberty and liberal ideas.
This meeting gave the project good
start. About one-half of the desired

This has long been favorite plan with politi-
cal leaders and polite ans geneF ally Anyone who
has reported the ga herings of Delaware seacres
at Dover knows the of mystery that surrounds
their dongs and how the newsgatherers and the poll
ticans of sufficient fry to be admitted behind the
closed portals have to hang around and watch
the leaks. The leaks are sometimes correct and
sometimes incorrect
Behind closed doors some of the best things
often happen. For instance, the aphorism of the
Hon. Caleb R. Layton that call politics is bun
combe" and which saying so shocked the Hon.
J. Edward AddicSs, was uttered behind closed
doors, but it was waited through open windows
Meeting in secret, therefore, holds fascination
for some public
For example after the executive council of the
mayor and his advisors, especially if the meeting
is long, won't people wonder what they were
doingl And when they emerge, won't the curl
speculate to what great secrets are con-
tanned in the minds of the members of the cabi-
net? Some of the curious may say, There goes
so and So, who knows what was done, but he
won't tell" And so and SO" may feel that he is
in possession of some great secret. He may
be the possessor of secret or he may have no
important secret at all. And some men enjoy
having secrets For instance, the mayors cabi-
net may have discussed how the railroad COM
pany work scheme to secure those water
rights, or they may merely have been smoking
cigars and wondering how former Senator Hig-
gins looked when he pronounced the State Reve-
nue. Commission flake" or they may have been
engaging in mere by play as men do when they
get together
We shall watch with interest the developments
of the secret sessions of the cabinet They have
put the cork in the bottle and are waiting to see
whether the alert reporters will be able to use
the corkscrew with judicious results.

A LEMON EXTRACT.

THE Delaware Water Company scheme has
4 appeared again.
It NAV or it may not be significant that IT
bobbed up at the Board of Education meeting
shortly after the mayors cabinet decided TO meet
behind closed doors in star chamber session But
that point in the consideration OF this matter may
be neither here nor there.
THE JOURNAL has opposed the request OF
the Delaware Water Company not because OF the
private individuals concerned in it, or because 1t
Is an adjunct Of the Pennsylvania Railroad Com
pany.
We have opposed it as we should oppose an
application of any water company now formed
OF to be formed that would want to use the
streets of the city in which to lay pipes.
We have opposed it because the moment pri-
vate company places pipes in the streets of the
city the integrity of the ctys ownership of the
monopoly OF supplying water is affected, If not
destroyed.
If the Delaware Water Company is granted
permission to lay pipes, how in reason or justice
could any other private concerns be refused the
right to us the streets of the city for water pipes
should they deem it to their own best interests to
supply themselves with water. Then, should
such permission be granted to other companies,
the city's streets would become the resting place
of innumerable pipes supplying water for various
purposes.
The request for permission to use the street
comes at a time when other cities similar to Will
nington are having bitter experiences with pri-
vate water companies.
The specific proposition as brought up before the
Board of Education is hardly worth considering
lit is so silly The proposition is that the rail-
road company shall lease to the city for term
OF years some OF its unused land, which is to be
converted into children's play ground At the
expiration Of the term of years the railroad COM
pany would have its land and the perpetual right
OF its water pipes in the city streets.
The city would have as the result of its bar
gain the rnd of lemon.
We trust that the water commissioners will
continue their opposition.

OUR SAVINGS PLAN

Mr.. Blanks income was 500 per
month, and his expenses s75. He car
ried the differenee-S25-in his pocket
and it gradually disappeared. The end
Of each month found him penniless. He
decided to try our plan Of depositing
his earnings in our Money Department
and paying his bills with checks. This
kept him in close touch with his affairs.
The first month he had a credit ball
anoe Of S25. Now he has several hum
dred dollars ahead. The Interest is ae-
cumulatins, too. At the end of this
year, he will have a considerable fund
available for permanent investment.

THE mayors cabinet is holding its sessions
behind closed doors. We have long sus-
pected that the plan of executive session would
be revived. With reporters or the public about
fhe members of the cabinet muzzled their mouths
and practically nothing was done There was a
lack Of freedom in the expression Of views. What
now comes from the board will have to filter its
way through In some respects this is an admir-
able plan for the members of the cabinet.
If the views alleged to have been stated at a
cabinet meeting are incorrect or do not meet
with public acclaim, why then, the views have
not been correctly reported. There has been
some misunderstanding. By the leaking process
