Nurse Sneaks in Cooper's Rem
edy When Doctors Fail, and
She Gains 81 Pounds

Dainty Jane Storms, vaudeville queen,
has Joined the swelling ranks of
Cooper converts in San Francisco. The
pretty actress, well known to local
playgoers, who is now living at the
Hotel Menlo, says that her health was
restored by the stomach mans" treat
ment-and in spite of herself Owing
| to the way it came about some of her
| friends say it is joke, but Miss
storms says sweetly that she loves

MISS Storms was playing character
parts in vaudeville skit in Los An
geles when she was stricken with
ptomaine poisoning She fell in the
street in convulsions. Four or five
physicians treated her, but were unable
to bring relief and she was racked
with nausea for 60 hours Then she
put on a course of treatment and lost
| 81 pounds in weight.
Said Miss Storms:
Life hardly seemed worth living to
me and | feared my professional career
was at an end. My nurse urged me to
try Cooper's remedy, but I steadily re-
fused, for / had no faith whatever in
anything except what my physicians
prescribed, although it was true thew
seemed unable to do me any good
Sioi dy afterwards began to feel
ldeclded Improvement in my condition
and few weeks later I was we'll again.
Ihen found that my nurse had
sneaked in Cooper's treatment for me
and that 1T had cured me- | can never

Anderson left last night for Los An

for the sreopening of the Citizens saw

he may allow it to reopen as a new

I feel that had I supported this bill /

Senator Bacon expressed himself as
extremely anxious that there should

of senators for the framing of that
measure. He had prepared collection
of every yea and nay vote taken on

This request was granted. The table,

IN the proposed tariff bill publish
I ers have secured the abolition of the
duty of $l.67 per ton on ground wood.
/ They obtained reduction from sc per
ton to 1915 per ton on print paper-a
saving of approximately $2700.000 per
1 annum in the cost of news print paper
to consumers.
American paper makers hold leases
on y 900 square miles of crown lands
in the province of Quebec, for which
! they pay an annual rental, and in ad-
dition a fixed price Of 65 cents for
9aevery cord cut. These leases expire In
4 1910. and it is given out that within
three days of the date of signing of
/ the Payne bill the terms of the new
! Quebec leases viii be promulgated.
1T is barely possible that Quebec
may regard the new legislation as the
best obtainable and abolish it's stump
! age tax. If il should prohibit the ex-
portation of pulp wood cut from crown
lands the American owners of timber
rights are prepared to set up COM
