Mr.. c. z. Brooks,
Marshall, Mich.
Dear Sir
. Perhaps it will interest o to know
that [ have been ~ruptured six years
and have always had trouble with it
ill I got your Appliance: It is very
easy to wear, fits neat and snug, and
is not in the way at n time, day or
might. In fact, at times I did not know
the shape of the body and seemed to
be q part Of the body, as it chung to the
spot. 40 matter what position I was in
1t would be a veritable God-send to
the unfortunate who suffer from rup-
lure if all could procure the Brooks
Rupture Appliance and wear it. They
would certainly never regret it.
My rupture is now all healed up ana
nothing ever did it but your Appliance.
Whenever the opportunity presents it
self | will say q good word for your
in which you deal with ruptured peo-
pie. 1t is a pleasure to recommend a
good thing among your friends or
strangers. 1 am,
Yours very sincerely,

Ten Reasons Whv
You Should Send For Brooke
Rupture Appiance.

!. 1t is absolutely the only Applf.
ance OF the kind on the market today.
and in it are embodied the principles
that inventors have sought after for
years.
2. The Appliance for retaining the
rupture cannot be thrown out OF posi-
ton.
8. Being an air cushion of soft rub
Der It cIlngs closely to the body, vet
never busters or causes irritation.
4. Unlike the ordinary so-caUed
pads. used in other t~russes, il is not
cumbersome or ungainly.
5. 1t is small, soft and pliable. and
positively. cannot be detected through
the clothing.
6. The soft, pliable bands holding
the Appliance do not give one the un-
pleasant sensation of wearing a har-
ness.
z. There is nothing about it to get
foul, and when it becomes soiled il
can be washed without injuring il in
the least.
8. There are no metal springs in
the Appliance to torture one by cut
ting and bruising the flesh.
8. All Of the material of which the
Appliances are made is OF the very
best that money can buy, making it a
durable and safe Appliance to wear.
10. My reputation for honesty and
fair dealing is SO thoroughly estab-
llshed by an experience of over thirty
years of dealing with the public, and
my prices are SO reasonable. my terms
SO fair. that there certainly should be
no hes1tancy in sending free coupon
today.

Prosperity Of the Whalers.

| VNSopC''ky W kVC VHd'SIS.
The dividend of 34k per cent jus
declared by the whaler Baiaena o
Dundee has attracted attention to the
handsome profits at present beini
realized from this industry, which ;
few years ago was believed to be on
the point of extinction. Last year the
dozen or so OF whalers which prose.
cute the fishing from Dundee had the
most successful season experienced
for twenty years, and reports just tc
hand indicate that the Norwegian
] companies are also enjoying a higt
degree of prosperity.
The usual course pursued by thos,
Norwegian companies has been Il
buy second hand British steamers
and then it them out with all the
most modern appliances for whale
catching and trying out. With such
equipment the whole process of re.
covering the marketable products
from the carcasses can be carried on
at sea.
The first trial was made In 1903 by
firm in Sandefjord, and two years
later an expedition was sent to the
Antarctic Ocean. It met with imme.
date success, and since then the In,
dustry has increased rapidly, until as
many as twenty expeditions, with
crews aggregating 700 men, are al
work. Indeed SO marked was the dc.
gree of success which they met with
that their increased supplies of whale.
bone were last year held responsible
for sharp decline In values which took
place.
Stimulated to emulation by their
success Tyne firm is about to des-
patch five vessels. three whalers, a
factory ship and an oil carrier, to OPP
crate In the vicinity of Kerguelen Isl
and, where the Norwegians already
have stations. Three of the vessels
will he adapted for fuel oil. Norwe-
gian whaling companies are also reap
ing enormous dividends In southwest
African waters, and German COM
pany has just been formed with a
capital of G5O,o0O to participate In the
industry there.
Empress Liner Still Intact.
That all further attempts to save
the wrecked Canadian-Pacifc steam
ship Empress of China have been

this morning after having left several
hundred tons Oriental cargo at the
port.
The distressed vessel lies some fifty
miles distant from Yokohama but not
far from the track followed by the
