NOTED oregon STATESMAN,
REGAINS HEALTH IN EAST

Hon Shiller B. Herman, distin-
guished statesman and legislator of
Portland, Oregon, who was recently
on an eastern trip, is among those
strongly in favor of l.. r. Cooper, in
the discussion over Cooper and his
medicines, which has ragged for the
past year in cities visited by the
young man on his educative cam
paiGns. as he calls them.
Cooper was explaining his new the
cries and medicines to Boston people
during the Oregonians visit to that
city. and in Il recent interview MIR
Herman said: Ny trip east accom-
plishcd more for me than | ever be-
lieved possible. 1t has actually been
the means of restoring my health.
While in Boston I heard great deal
about this man Cooper and his medi-
cines, ana one morning | talked with
4 Boston banker who told me that ne
had been relieved by Coopcr's medi-
zines after ten years chronic dyspep-
STA. For the past twenty years l have
been fearful sufferer with nervous
dyspepsia. 1t has been so bad that it
all but forced me to resign from the
Legislature.

l was feeling wretchedly that morn
ing, and l made up my mind to try
the medicine. l had seen leading ply
sicians without number both East and
West. They had been unable to help
me in the least, and l no more be-
lieved this Cooper medicine could help
me than it could bring a dead man
back to life ! really don't know why
| bought it. 1t was like a drowning
man clutching at 4 straw.
TO make a long story short, it has
been astonishingly successful in my
case. Today I am enjoying n sound
stomach and perfect health for the
first time in twenty years. L can eat
heartily without the slightest inconve-
nience afterward. l have a fine appe-
tite, and sleep well. l am no longer
moody and depressed. and my nerv-
business has entirely disappeared.
ANY man who has chronic dyspep-
sia owes it to his family to try this
medicine"
In all our experience as druggists.
we have never seen anything to sur
rass the famous Cooper preparations.

unique. In the plaintiffs writ he sets
forth that he was driving along the
Pond road in West Gardiner, Sept 10,
1906 There was road machine stand

being detached and standing crosswise
in the road.
The plaintiff further alleges that he
attempted to guide his horse along the
right of way in such a manner as to
avoid certain culvert and in so do
ing oollided with the horses. They be-
came frightened and in this manner
frightened his own horse so that it
ran away. smashing his wagon,
throwing him out, injuring his right
side. breaking three ribs and disIocat-
ing his shoulder. Because the road ma
chino and horses belonged to the town
and were in charge Of the road com

damages in the sum of $500.

Local SnowShoers are now having lots
of fun, and trips are made almost daily
across the fields and pastures in the
vicinity of the city and at the lake.
the latter being q popular place
because of its level surface. The shoe
ing is said to be fairly good. although
the SHOW is n little light to furnish
first class sport in that line. Up in the
timherlands the shoeing is said to be
very bad on account of the lightness
of the snow. A gentleman from that
section who was in the city yesterday
said that he had seldom seen the snow
shoeing so bad there as it is at pres
ent. There are from two to three and
one-half feet of snow on the ground in
the woods, but the snow is so soft
that the shoes sink into it deeply and
make the walking very hard.

length of IS feet 6 inches and beam

make her very steady. The model
was admired yesterday by all who saw
it. The steamer is about ready for
