This Is ' true, but I think it is evident the suit was brought if or polit ical effect more than for an actual re covery of the money, as will be appar ent when an examination of the rec ords is made. The fact Is that the parties holding this note were given ample security for Its payment and no effort to avoid its payment has ever been made. Tbe whole thing is raked up at this particular time by enemies who desire to injure me politically for there has never been any doubt that the note would be paid. L. P. W. QUIMBY.

MEDFORD, Or., May 15. (Special.) Jasper N. Miller, the 72-year-old student at the Medford., Business Col lege, who refuses to grow old, has found that his philosophy of life meets not only with approval, but. in three cases at least, with a more tender emo. tlon. Since his portrait and life story ap peared in The Oregonian he has been the recipient of an average of five let ters daily and three of them have been proposals of marriage. Mr. Miller re fuses to make their names public, al though he admits two of the matri monially inclined live. In Portland and are well over 60. He has consented to make the least demonstrative epistle public. It is as follows: I have Just read the lnolosed about you. I congratulate you on your ability to keep young. Tour mode of living I adopted years ago, only, being a woman, I don't tell my age I am as active on my feet as I was at 80. I am a widow with the ability that 1... mad me IndeDendent financially. 1 find life '.onelv living alone, but I ask noth ing of any man but companionship. If agree able to you I would like to meet you aiiu become acquainted. If you come to Portland for the Rose Festival, call on me. "When I was 62 I received an offer of marriage from a wealthy widw who said she would take care of me the rest of my life," said Mr. Miller, "but I lauirhted at the idea. I scarcely knew her. . A young fellow married her later and then deserted her, leaving her a 'pauper. No, I don't want to get married. That side of my life was put awav nearly 60 years ago, when my wife died. I could be happy with no other woman. Old men may do a great manv foolish things, but I consider my self 72 years young and beyond the foolish staee. I shall answer these letters, however, and hope to increase mv circle of friends. I don't intend to grow any older. Marriage now would spoil my life, because I know it would shatter my youtniui weais. 'PIANOS' & 'PLAYER PIANOS' Reduced from 10 to 35 per cent, 100 of the world's best makes.

IS E Results Not Inflnenced by Age or Time Standing, Says Expert. e.sevij Rupture is not a tear or breach in the abdominal wall, as commonly sup posed, but is the stretching or dilat ing of a natural opening, therefore subject to closure, said F. H. Seeley, on a late visit to Portland. "The Spermatic Shield Truss closes the opening in ten days on the aver age case,, producing results without surgery or harmful injections." Mr. Seeley has documents from the Gov ernment, Washington, D. C, for in spection." Anyone interested 'will be shown the'truss or fitted if desired. Sold and fitted only by Laue-Davis Drug Co., sole and exclusive agents for Oregon. Other firms advertising and selling imitation "Seeley" Spermatio Shield Trusses are impostors.
