 "I tried everything I could hear of for relief, but to no purpose. l began to feel that there was no hope for me. I could do scarcely any work at all. and felt most miserable all the time. l had neither strength nor ambition-ev- erything was a drag, even my exist ence. I could neither eat. sleep nor work.

I made do no harm If 1t did no good. So ] bought bottle of Coopers New Dis covery and began taking it.

ONE WAY TO RETAIN
 GOOD HEALTH, SAYS COOPER

l.. T. Cooper's theory regarding the human stomach is rapidly becoming topic of universal discussion. Cooper claims that the human stomach has be- come chronically deranged by modern conditions, and that sickness generally is the result.
 In a recent interview, while introduc- ing his medicine in a leading city. Mir Cooper said: There is just one way, in my opinion. to maintain general health, and that Is by building up the digestive organs The vast majority of Americans today have weak. fla bby. distended stomachs. This has been caused by many generations of over feeding and lack of exercise, until to- day the entire civilized race Is affect ed. This is the true cause of most of the Ill health of today. Little can be done to relieve 1t until the stomach is once more brought back to normal con dition.
 T am successful because my prepar- alton puts the stomach in sound con- dition, and I maintain this is the only way to secure general and permanent good health"
 Among those who have become firm medicines through a personal test of his claims, Is Mrs. Anna Maring of Dennison, Clark County, H.. who lives 6h Rural Route No. i, Box 57. Mrs. Maring says: For years l have suf- fered agony from stomach trouble. I could not eat anything without having the greatest distress afterward. My appetite was poor-did not care to eat afraid of the results that were sure to follow. My digestive organs did not perform their functions properly, and were a source of much pain. Gas

 Tn Memphis.

Memphis, Tenn. Dec. e.--Abe Attei. champion featnerweight fighter of the world, was forced to extend himself to the limit to secure decision over Charlie White of Chicago. In an eight round contest before the Phoenix Ath- letic Club here tonight The decision was unpopular.
 At long-range. White had all the bet ter of the lighting. landing right and left to the champion's head and body almost at will. but his blows scenes to lack steam. and only once did he stagger Attel.
 Attel forced the. fighting throughout the clincnes and punished White se- verely with short arm jabs to wind and head.
 White proved himself worthy op- ponent of the champion. dancing awey from his rushes and taking little pun
 Attei was the first to show blood, a vicious uppercut landing flush on his month. Not until the last round did he draw blood from Whites nose and mouth.
 The eighth round was the fastest. both men fighting hammer and tongs from bell to bell.
 It was on Atters superior in-fightlng that Referee Barry based his decision. which was hoooted by many of the au- dience.

SThe purchase of the car has been under consideration several days and a re- cent conference was held in the May Ors office at which several members of the Council were present, and 1t Is understood that 1t was at this con- ference that the decision was made to add the motor car to the Fire Depart ment equipment.
 It has developed that there is some opposition on the part of members of the Council to the purchase of the mo- tor car for Mir Browder and an evil dence of that opposition cropped out at Monday nights meeting in a reso- lutlon introduced directing the order for the machine countermanded. pend ing further investigation.

Vaudeville .t the Majestic.

The show which made its bow in Montgomery at the Majestic Theatre, Monday. is. as vaudeville shows go, up to the seasons average. It is built up with the idea or entertainment. and in the six acts there is every brand of entertainment-singI dancing. aero battles, a bit of drama and some com edy. A pocket-edition minstrel show. with complete cast and scenic changes. signslizes the bill as some- thing new in vaudeville.
 The minstrel show is that of George s. Van. and while the members of the cast may not be stars in minstrelsy, they are performers whose voices are entertaining and whose coon-shouting Is amusing.
 The minstrel troupe occupies good part of the bill. for. besides the one number in which the entire company takes part, there are two others. in each of which two members of the Vann show hold the boards to them selves. One is the comedy acrobatic number Of Swain and OstInan. and the other the dancing speciality of Young and King The last two are exceptional dancers. and Swain and Ostman possess ability on the mat although there Is bit too much horse play in the act.
 W. Stanley James and octavia El- lis present a one-act drama drawn from the Civil War times. depicting a romance in which Confederate offi- cer and girl who Is in the service Of the Union Army as a spy, figure. It Is story that is well worked out.
 Miss Marie Sparrow is commedi- enne who is made for the part. Even without natures aid she's a good laugh producer with a sponteneity about her and her style that makes of her the best of entertainers. She can sing and she has dialect of the Em- eraid Isle that we suspect Is not all affected.
 The BeGar sisters are billed as. Eu- ropean dancers. They are handsome young women who have new stunts in the dancing line that bring applause. Strong. agile and hafd-working. they have an act that Is one of the best on the bili.i
 The Majestograph. with It's pictures of meiodrama and comedy. concludes the bili And the theatre-goers. who have long since become impressed with the excellence of the moving pictures of the Majestic do not leap to their feet and crowd out as tho pictures start. but most of them stay for 1t all.

ty about the coal bins and the ware.

men to get their buildings Oh

yards, on which to build warehouses
coal bins and lumber yards. 1t is

There is some speculation as tC
the probability of the railroad com

bins is thought to be the first ste[
in this matter. However, the re.
moval of the coal bins has not yei
