4 ,THE MORNING ASTORIAN, ASTORIA OREGON. t v " ; ' Tuesday, February 11, im PECULIAR PB OPERTIES OF NEW MEDICINE Ccoper Preparation Attracts Widespread At tention by Expelling Internal Parasites. The interest created in leading cities during the past year by young Mr Coooer with his new preparation, is largely accounted for by a peculiar quality possessed by this medicine, which he calls his New Discovery. Mr. Cooper believes that internal parasites, or tapeworms, are respon sible for much ill health, and it is an undoubted fact that his medicine has expelled immense numbers of these creatures in various cities vis ited by him. The young man also be lieves that stomach trouble is the main cause of all ill health. He claims that few can have poor health with a good digestion. He further claims that his New Discovery medi cine does nothing but tone up the stomach, yet it not only expels the parasites, but relieves many other ailments not as a rule associated with stomach trouble. Little Jessie Birdsall, daughter of Mrs. Ida Birdsall, , living at 2138 Carroll avenue, Chicago, is among many relieved of a large para site by Mr. Cooper's preparation during his stay in that city. In speaking of the matter to Mr. Cooper, the mother said: "My child Jessie, who is 14 years old, has been suffer ing with this trouble for over seven years. Until this morning we did not known what the trouble was. She was extremely nervous; the least little thing would upset her; tongue was coated, and at times she would have a good appetite, then again could not bear the sight of food; she was restless at night, had a bad breath, especially when she got up of mornings. We tried everything to relieve her, but met with no success. We were just on thejpoint of giving up trying anything else, wnen we oe gan to read of Cooper's New Dis covery. Several days ago we pur chased this medicine. Jessie has been using it regularly, and this morning this parasite left her system. I don't wonder that she had always felt bad and nothing we would give her seem ed to relieve her. Now that she is re lieved of this tapeworm I feel sure that she will grow better each day, and enjoy pefect health. Mr. Cooper, your medicine is worth a thousand times more than you charge for it. I know of a number of people troubled the same way as Jessie has been, and I certainly expect to tell them per sonally to try your medicine." We would advise anyone who has been troubled for some time with general poor health to try this great medicine. We are agent for it in this city, Charles Rogers & Son. these comments attention was fre quently invited to the fact that rifle practice is more especially the busi ness of the army than of the navy, and that white the Military Academy has time and enthusiasm for foot ball, baseball, polo and tennis, it is absent from the National Rifle Match at which the Naval Academy wins conspicuous honors." Col. Evans highly compliments Maj. I. M. Brett, in charge of the Statistical office; Maj. James B, Dick man, chief range officer and Capt, Guy II. B. Smith, chjef pit officer, and speaks in the highest terms of the assistance rendered by the of ficers of the National Guard of Ohio, including Gen. A. B. Critchfield and Col. Edward T. Miller, who acted as Post Quartermaster. NATIONAL RIFLE MATCHES. WASHINGTON, D. C. Feb. 10, -As the next national rifle matches will be shot at Camp Perry, Ohio, and it is more than probable that Lt. Col. R. K. Evans, now of the General Staff, will be again executive officer of the matches, considerable curiosity has been manifested by riflemen as to his report on the matches of 1907. This report, accompanied by reports from almost all of the team' captains present at the last matches, has pas sed through the regular channels and while the report in full will not be made public certain extracts are available. The size and importance of the national matches from the war department's standpoint is shown by the fact that, as Col. Evans reports 75 officers of the regular army were detained to assist the executive of ficers as assistant statistical or range officers, in addition to the large num ber of officers of the National Guard who volunteered for that duty. In addition there was from the regular establishment the 3d battalion of the 4th infantry, and the 2nd battalion of the 7th infantry, with a total of eigh teen officers and 375 men; and a field hospital with 57 men. There were also 14 officers and 287 men detailed from the Ohio National Guard. All of these officers and men were in addition to the riflemen present, of whom there were approximately a thousand. Col. Evans reports there were not enough officers and men to handle the match and recommends the following detail for the next match: 3 battalions of infantry of not less than 260 men each; one troop of cavalry of not less than 65 men; one signal corps company of 3 officers and 100 men, and one field hospital of not less than 2 officers and 60 men. Col. Evans thinks the range will be satisfactory even in bad weather with tiling and other artificial drainage, macademized roads and concrete walks, etc. In discussing the firing points he says. "Intervals between the groups at 200, 600 and 800 yards were not sufficient to permit the simultane ous use of the ranges, and the firing points at 1000 yards overlapped those at 600 yards so that about ten targets could not be used while firing either together or at the shorter range." This condition is to be remedied by additional construction. Col. Evans was pleased with the targets used, especially with the skirmish targets which consisted of indurated straw board cut to the size of the kneeling and prone figures and mounted on the B frame. The system of having a buzzer at each target should hereafter be considered indispensable. "The great and general improvement in marksmanship throughout the Union durine the past year," he says, "as CASTOR I A Por Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought Bears the Signature of shown by this table is a satisfaction to all who are interested in rifle prac tice. This shows advance in good shooting as the result of the work of the National Rifle Association and of the influence of the National Match." The table shows a gain in points by the various teams over their scores of 1906 as follows: Navy, 290; Mass. 242; Ohio 364; Cavalry 175; Wash.337; Penn. 372; Infantry 88; New York 164; New Jersey 284; Minnesota 225; Illinois 204; Wis. 186; Marine Corps 71; District of Columbia 386; Mich. 262; Oregon 310; Maryland 350; Georgia 370; Iowa 218; Conn. 195; Colo. 237; Cal. 316; Montana 273; Fla. 96; Kans. 294; Indiana 336; Texas 328; Missouri 563; Okla. 810; West Va. 539; New Mex. 464; Miss. 835; S. C. 118; Ala. 649; Tenn. 167; Louisi ana 142; and Virginia 398. Nebraska and Vermont were the only two states making less points, the former losing 47 and the latter 76. Col. Evans gives a resume of the recommendations of the team cap tains together with some of his own. It is recommended that as many of ficers as possible who fill important positions in each national match be re-detailed for the succeeding match and that the detail of the executive officers and his staff be made as early as practicable. He suggests a board of officers to formulate rules for the work of the statistical office and to work out changes in blanks and score cards which experience has found advisable. He recommends that all officers be ordered to report at such time as will allow chief range officers at least three days for their thorough instruction and training. He terms the practice of firing pieces to foul them a nuisance, that it is dangerous and does no good. The theory that such firing materially af fects scores on the range is believed by him to be a superstition more than a demonstrated fact. He therefore recommends that the practice be for bidden under penalty of disbarrment from the match. He also recom mends that the practice of pointing fire-arms from behind the firing line be forbidden under the same penalty, as there were two accidental dis charges of supposedly "unloaded" weapons during the last match and it was only a matter of good luck that some one was not killed or wounded during this senseless and dangerous practice. He recommends that preliminary practice take place on Friday and Saturday before the National Match which should begin on Monday. This recommendation has been adopted by the board. "The incident most gen erally commented upon in this match," he says, "was the phenome nal record made by the Naval Acad emy team. Not only did it win 6th place in the Team Match, but one of its members, Midshipman W. A. Lee, was the winner of the National Indi vidual and also of the National Pis tol Match. Many competitors and spectators commented with surprise on the fact that although opportunity was given in orders, yet the U. S. Military Academy was not repre sented in the National Match. In TAFT AS KANSAS CITY. KANSAS CITY, Feb. 10,-Sccrc tary Taft was given a memorable ova tion by 15,000 people in the conven tion hall tonight where he was the guest of honor and principal speaker at the most elaborate banquet ever attempt in this city. There were 1200 banqueters, many of whom came from Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma and distant Missouri cities. The demon stration accorded Taft as he arose to speak has never been surpassed by any welcome given any public man in the history of the city. The balconies of the hall were thrown open to the public and long before the hour of speaking began, standing room was at a premium. Secretary Taft's speech was a general defense of the Republican party and especially policies of the Roosevelt administration. Regarding the recent panic, the speaker said the President's special message completely answers the statement that the administration s responsible for the present depres sion. Taft says we were passing into a regime of irresponsible plutocracy and that during the past four years the people have awakened to the danger and there now was a popular demand that all lawbreakers, no mat ter how wealthy or high or powerful, shall be made to suffer. Under Roose velt's leadership, he said, the Repub lican party has not faltered in its determination to rise to the occasion. The Jumping Off Place. "Consumption had me in its grasp; and I had almost reached the jumping off place when I was advised to try Dr. King's New Discovery; and I want to say right now, it saved my life. Improvement began with the first bottle, and after taking one dozen bottles I was a well and happy man again," says George Moore, of Grimesland, N. C.

AT THE STAR THEATRE. The management of this popular place of amusement was greviously disappointed to learn, on Sunday night, that the stock company which had been secured for this week, had failed to make connection. Not to dissappoint their audiences Messrs. Fritz & Hutchings wired to Portland to secured talent and succeeded in presenting a good entertainment last night. The first on the program is "The Concertina King" who manipulates this pretty instrument in a manner that wins two boisterous encores. Dick Hutchins sings "My Wild Irish Rose" in his own inimitable style. Miss Lois Cecele Hobson sings beautifully, and last night responded to three encores. Her last song "So Long Mary" is very catchy. The moving pictures are fine, "The Four Footed Hero" closing to an outburst on the part of the audience when the, "hero" and little girl, whose life he had saved were shown on the screen. The closing pictures "Christ mas" is also a ne subject wjiich catches the audience. Something Wrong. The little girl bad got up very early In the morning for the first time. "Un, mamma.

Mix one-half ounce of Concentrat ed oil of pine with two ounces of glycerine and a half pint of good whiskey. , Shake thoroughly each time and use in doses of a teaspoon ful to a tublespoonful every four hour. The renowned throat and lung spe cialist who established a camp for consumptives in the pine woods of Maine, and whose remarkable cures there attracted international atten tion, declares that the above formula is one of the very best remedies ob tainable for an acute cold and that it will strengthen the lungs, relieve coughs and heal the bronchial tubes. Also, that it will cure any case of lung trouble not too far advanced if the patient will assist by plenty of outdor exercise, inhaling deep, long breaths every few minutes. The ingredients are procurable of any good prescription druggist and easily mixed at home and should take its place as one of the most valued remedies in the family medicine chest. Inquiry at one of the leading drug gists elicited the information that Concentrated oil of pine is put up for dispensing only in half-ounce vials securely sealed in tin screw- top cases intended to protect it from heat and light. The oils sold in bulk and the patent medicines put up and labeled "Oil of Pine," are to be avoid ed because owing to their impurities they produce nausea and are useless as a medicine, besides they sometimes leave permanent kidney trouble. ANOTHER SKELETON FOUND. Subscribe for the Astorian. OAKLAND, Feb. 10,-The skele ton dug up at Elmhurst last Satur day, leads the coroner's office to be lieve they are on the rack of a big murder mystery. The bones found today were in the same state of pre servation as the others. They were located in the same hole about two feet deeper. The bones found Satur day have been examined by surgeons at the request of the coroner's office and pronounced human bones and not enough decomposed to bear out the theory that they were those of some ancient Indian as was at first supposed. HOGS HURRIED TO MARKET. CHICAGO, Feb. 10. -Receipts of hogs at the United Stock Yards in Chicago broke all previous records. Before noon more than 75,000 head had been unloaded and more were ar riving. The high price of corn is said to be the cause for the market ing of the animals in such great numbers. SOOTHES AND HEALS. Hyomei Gives Quick Relief Catarrh Troubles. in Be wise in time and use Hyomei at the first warning of catarrhal troubles. Do not let the disease extend along the delicate mucous membrane, grad ually going from the nose to the throat thence into the bronchial tubes, and then downward until the lungs arc reached and you are in danger of consumption. Hyomei will cure all curable forms and stages of catarrh. It is so uni formly successful in curing this common yet dangerous disease that T. F. Laurin takes all the risk of a trial treatment. There is no other treatment for catarrh that is like Hyomei or just as good. None can take its place, none give such quick and sure relief and at so little cost. Its medications is breathed through a pocket inhaler that comes with every outfit, thus reaching the most remote cells of the air passages, killing the catarrhal germs and soothing and healing the irritated mucous membrane. Begin the use of Hyomei today and you will soon find that the offensive breath, the droppings into the throat, the discharge from the nose and all other symptoms of catarrh are over come and cured. The complete out fit costs but $1.00 and T. F. Laurin stands ready to refund the money if it does not cure catarrh. Card of Thanks. We desire, by this means, to convey our grateful thanks to each and all who, in any manner, contributed to our peace and comfort during the recent illness and death of our dear mother and grandmother.
