Interesting Contests Among the Association lgne
Teams Games in the East
There is always plenty of fun at a Kugby
football game, and the large crowd who saw
the teams of the Allegheny Athletic Asso
ciation and Greensburg struggle against
each other yesterday enjoyed themselves
immensely The weather was excellent,
it couldn't have been better for footl all had
it been made to order. It was the first real
Kugby of the season on the grounds of the
three A's, and as a consequence nearly 1,000
were present, and excitement ran high from
start to finish.
Victory pcrrhed itself on the local ban
ner, hut rot until the victors were convinced
that hey had a ery
nns-OLUTK AXD riCCKT TEAM
in front of them. The victory might have
been a little more decisive than it was, but
the local tram on one or two occasions had
luck acainst them, and besides thev did not
play their game by any means. The truth
is the second half of the contest was reached
before the home players scored, and in the
first half thev had, i"f anything, the worst
ofh.
The local talent gave evidence of lack of
practice although, thev had a very good
" team on the field, but if they expect to hold
their own against the good teams scheduled
to come here they must get into much bet
ter form than they displayed yesterday.
The visitors had not by any means the ap
pearance of being the team the local fel
lows are, hut they performed much more
svstematically when it came to rushing.
The local players behind the line were the
ones who saved the day for Pittsburg, be
cause the Grcensburgs were decidedly
superior rushers to the home representa
tives. It is not unreasonable to sav that
the local rush line was very weak and time
and time again the visitors broke through
it.
The brothers jrcClintock made their ap
pearance with the three A's, and "Walter,
who plaj ed right half back, performed very
well indeed, although he committed what
probably were two bad errors in the first
half. But he redeemed himself admirably.
Th Olivers, "Proctor and Valentine also
J dared well. For the Greensburgs Guffy.
leppenstall, Covard and Hensel did good
work.
TWO MEN KNOCKED OUT.
In the second half Germer,left halfback for
Pittsburg, was unable to continue and Proc
tor took his place. The change proved to
be a good one. Paul also replaced Schwartz
as full hack. The latter and Germer both
got knocked out in the first half. Eussell
Forsyth was referee and Mr. Guffy, of
Greensburg. umpire. These gentlemen per
formed their duties fairly well, although
the visitors sustained a continuous kick at
the referee's decisions. The game consisted
of two halves, 30 minutes each, with the
usual rest bet cen. The teams lined up as
follows:
Pittsburq. Position. Greensbura
W. JlcClintock .... I,. E Guffy
ISrainard L. T Fiscus
J. Oliver L. G Donahoo
J. Moorliead C Co-liev

Albree. U.T. Jamison
II. Oliver : IL E Ilarclav
Valentine. . .Quarter tacks Nnll
GeVmer'intCk ' backs Jo"
oermei hipman
Schwartz F. B Iicnscl
The visitors started off with the ball, and
after about five minutes of lively skirmish
ing, the Pitt'-biirgers got possession. A
pood run by Germer gained ten yards, and
then to JlcClintock with an" excellent
chance to gtt awav with the ball and make
a touchdown, dropped the ball.
A VEKV BAD ERROR.
This lost fully 20 yards The Pittsburgers
rained again, but another fumble by W.
McClintock lost 20 yards again. Skirmish
ing and rushing characterized the game
-jntil near the end of the first half, when
the 1'ittsnurgs had the b-ill. Hcrorc it was
in play one of the vikitors kicked it away
and it was easily carried to the local goal
by Guffy. lint "the play was called foul by
the umpire. Neither side seored in the first
lialf.
In the second half the local players had
the ball and started off vigorously. They
commenced to play like winners. " Proctor
made one or two excellent runs gaining
ground considerably. One of his runs landed
the ball close to the visitors goal line and
then without much trouble the ball was
passed to Valentine, who was rushed over
the line with it and he made a touchdown.
Tiic visitors objected, but the referee de
clared it ali right. Ilrainanl failed to kick
goal and only iour w ere scored.
I'lsv had not proceeded much further be
fore the ball was passed to Proctor, who by
vigorous running and artful dodging, made
a touchdown and Brainard kicked goal
cleverly, sending the score np to 10. The
contest finished without any more scoring,
the final score standing the 3A's, 10; Greens
burg, 0. Many of the players were tolera
bly well bruised.
ASSOCIATION FOOTBALL.
A Lively Time Between the New Castle
and Homestead Teams.
The nomestead and New Castle Associa
tion League football teams met at Home
stead yesterday to play a championship
game and they had a very li ely time of it.
As a result tho contest ended in a protest
being lodged bj the Xew Castle team. Mr.
Stewart was referee and ho lacked firmness
in his decisions to arreat extent.
There was a large ci owd present and not a
goal was scored in the first half. Both
teams nlayed well and at times the struggle
was extremely exciting.
In the second half the Homesteads by
excellent play scored a goal and a few
minutes later the Xew Castle representa
tives tied the score amid considerable ex
citement. About ten minutes befoie time
was up the home team sot the ball to coal
once more, but "foul" was claimed b vtho
Xeiv Castle captain. The latter, Mr. "Wood,
claimed that the ball had been sent to goal
by a Homestead plaj er's arm. Tho referee
decided in favor of Homestead and a
wrangle enr-ued. The crowd got on to the
grounds, but the latter mere cleared and the
referee ordered tho gnme to proceed. The
Xew Cavtlc players argued it wkr too dark
and tliey declined to piay. The Homestead
team then kicked a goal and the contest
ended according to the releiee's decision:
Homestead, 3: Xew Castle. 1, with one of the
Homestead goals protested.

The Famous Football Flayer "Will Take
Chargo of Harvard's Team.
Xew York, Oct. 21. Special. Arthur J.
Cumnock, captain of last year's Harvard
football team, which was the first crimson
eleven to defeat Tale since lS76,arrived from
Liverpool yesterday on the steamship Brit
annic His father met him at theaockand
together they went to the Fifth Avenue
Hotel.
A reporter met the famous end rusher
there and learned that ho would go on to
Boston this morning. He was entirely Ignor
ant of the football outlook, but was soon
put in touch with all the facts, for shortly
afterSo'clnckPerrv Trafford, "the man who
did up Heffelflnger," put In an appearance.
The conversation turned at once, of course,
to the "subject of football. Trafford Is a
brother of Bernie Trafford, captain of this
year's Harvard eleven, so he nad all the
news.
They were soon Joined by Jimmie Lee,
who made that famous "run around tho

tho Harvard men had met by appointment,
but tho gathering was merely a chance one
Cumnock will soon he seen on .larvis field
coaching the Harvard eleven. His presence
1ms been anxiously awaited by the team. It
was thought that he would stay over in
NewYqrk adav to see Yale play Orange

home on tho first train this morning.
EASY FOB THE HAEVAHDS.
They Hate Something Like a "Walkover
Against the Amherst Team
Cambridge, Oct. 21. Special "A good
game all the way through," was the general
verdict of the crow d w ho gathered on Jarvis
field this afternoon and saw Harvard defeat
Amherst S3 to 0 in two half hour halves.
There was no slugging of any description
and In this respect tho game was a great
contrast to the contest of a week ago with
Williams. As a whole the work of the
Harvard 11 showed much impi ovement, al
though it was by no means the strongest
team that they could put, ns neither
H&llowell, Vail nor Ilantoul played. The
tackling of the Harvnrd men notably ot
Mason, Fearing and Xowell was especially
good and the half back woikof Lake and
Gray was admirable. The work of the center
men was fair, but only fair.
At the end of the first half the score stood
16 to 0 In Harvard's favor. Tho second half
was simply a walkover forllnrvardandcon
sisted principally in a little preliminary
skirmishing between the two linos and then
long rushes by Lake, touchdown by the
same redoubtable halfback and coals bv
Trafford. Score 39 to 0 in favor of Harvard.
THE PrnSBTTRGEBS BEATEN.
They Drop a Well-Flayed Game to the
Team ot McKeesport.
The Pittsburg Association football team
went to McKeesport j esterday to tackle the
McKecsportcrs in a phampionship game.
They were beaten by a score ofl to 1, but
the contest was a good one.
The Pittsburg team had their best players
on hand and fully expected to scoro a vic
tory, although tho McKeesporters are quite
a strong and clever lot of players. In tho
first half both teams plaved with good
judgment and considerable pluck. Mc
Jveesoort was the first to score, but Pitts
burg soon followed suit and tied the score.
In the second half tho McKeesport team
plaj ed with more skill than their opponents
and soon had three goals added to their
score, making a total of four. Tho Pittsburg
plavers tried hard to stem the tide of defeat,
O'Brien, Wardle and Chapman playing well.
But luck was against the Pittsburgs, andal
tlio'igh they had tho ball near to McKeoi
ports' goal several times they conld not get
it through. The game finally ended 1 to 1 In
favor of McKeesport.
GOOD FOB THE CRESCENTS.
They Flay Well and Defeat tho Wesleyan
College Team Easily.
New York, Oct, 24. Special. About 1,500
persons gathered at Eastern Park. Brook
lyn, this afternoon to -witness the football
match between the Champions of the Amor
can Football Union and "Wesleyan. The
Crescents were out ns stronp.If not stronger,
than on any previous occasion this season.
The Wesleyan men fumbled very badly, and
seemed rattlca when tho game began, so
that in the first half the Crescents scored 20
points.
In the second half Wesleyan put Ander
son in as hair back in place of Pnrshley and
therely improved their team wonderfully,
scoring a goal and keeping the Crescent's
down to 16 points. Anderson's work was tho
best part or Weslean's game. Newton, nt
right gnai d, also did fine work, and that bo
as right in it all the time, was shown by
his gory appearance at tho close of the en
gagement. When time w-ns called the score
stood 36 to 6 In favor of tho-Brooklyn team.
IN GOOD F0BM.
Tale's Team Fnt Up a Fine Game, Defeating
the Orange Athletics.
Xew York. Oct. 24. Yale lias good, new
football material this fall, and she Is de
veloping It rapidly. These facts were made
plain at Orange Oval, N J., this morning,
when Yale defeated the Orange Athletic
Club's eleven by a score of 36 to 0. There
were about 3.5C0 persons on the grounds to
seethe sport. The most noticeable feature
of Yale's play to-day was fine Interference.
She worked tho ends well, in fact better
than the lint, and played good football. Mc
C ung did not plav.
Conii'icring tho nnmber of comparatively
new men on her team, Yale's play must have
been satisfactory to the old Yale men, who
watched it rrom the edge of the field. In
the first half Yale ran up a score of 1G points
by scoring four touch downs.
Bncknell Won It.
Suajiokis, Oct. 21. Special. Bucknell
University defeated the Swarthmore Col
lege football team to-day In an interesting
game tiy the score of 32 to 12. Tho game
opened with Bncknell in possession of tho

scored the first toucndciwn. Bncknell scored
two moro touchdowns in this half and
Swarthmore two, the scoie for the half be
ing 12 to 12. The second half opened with
repeated efforts by both teams to rush the
ball through the center. Tho game ended
with the score 32 to 12 in favor ot Bucknell.
Were Not In It.
Soctk Bethlehem, Oct. 21. Special Le
high was like the man who fell out of the
balloon In the football game with the Uni
versity of Pennsylvania to-day, they were
not "in it." The visitors won by a score of
12 to 0. Lehigh fumbled badly, and the men
were too light for the visitors' heavy rush
line. Lehigh played in defense all through.
Tile rushing, blocking and tackling of the
University of Pennsvlvania win, superb, and
the opinion here Is that Princeton will have
a hard fight to win from them.
Made Wjr,lams nappy.
Williams-tows, .Oct. 21. Special. Will
iams College is happier than she has been
for a long time, having accomplished the
feat of whipping Stagg's powerful football
team to the tune of 16 to 6. This brightens
Williams' outlook for tno championship,
which has been none of the brightest. Tho
victory is to bo accounted for by no weak
ness in Stfagg's team, as they put up such
a tricky, pluckv and powerful game as is
rarely seen on Weston field.
It Was Very Easy.
" Pbiscetos, Ocr.24. Special The 'Varsity
football team defeated the New York
Athletic club team -to-day by a score of 2S
to 0. A large crow d, including many of tho
fair sex, witnessed the game. It was a
tvpical day for football. That the New
York men pliycda strong game is evident
from the small score Princeton made against
them. Princeton expected to i oil up about
CO points. The first half Princeton played
verv carelessly, but braced up toward the
last.
A Great Time Expected.
Philadelphia, Cct. 1. Special All ar
rangements for the Pennsylvania-Piinceton
football team have been made and tickets
go on sale on Monday. Five sections of tho
grand stand have been reserved lor the

tho strongest team tho ever had, and should
the reports of the crippled condition of
Princeton's men be true the woarers of the
red and blue should w in the game.

The Referee In the Jones and Beatty Race
Gives a St ranee Decision.
The foot race at Monongahela City yester
day between James Jones, of Homestead,
and George Beatty, of Shiro Oaks, ended
somewhat curiously. The two men ran 200
yards for $250a side, and Jones won, but the
referee decided in favor of Beattv. A man
named Pritchai d was refci ee and Jack Clif
ford was starter.
The runners were sent off to a good start,
and Beatty was slightly in front for about
150 yards. Jones then went to the front, and
after a" desperate race won by two feot. The
crowd were all satisfied that Jones had won,
and even Beatty thought he had lost.
Strange to say the referee declared other

holder declined to give up the monev, and
as matters stand both parties are claiming
the stakes.

FOUR MORE OF THEM.
Miller, Shugart, Maul and Grant
Briggs Sign Local Clnb Contracts.
BECKLEY SAID TO BE ALL EIGHT.
Prospects of More Good Players Being on
the List Within a Feir Days.
GENERAL SPORTING SEWS OF THE DAT
Affairs in the local baseball club are now
going along beautifully. President O'Keil
and Secretary Scandrett were as busy yester
day as the clerks in a booming land office,
and it was easily seen that those directly
interested in the club had come to a com
mon understanding to have the best inter
ests of the club looked after in a business
like way, regardless of outside advice. As
a result Miller, Shugart, Maul and Grant
Briggs were signed, and the ropes laid for
more signers to-morrow and Tuesday.
Of course President O'Neil was just in
his element hustling round getting the
players into line, and he signed the quar
tette named without any trouble at alL Al
together it was pleasing to note what har
mony can do among he directors.
MILLEK GETS AN INCREASE.
Miller declined to say what his salary for
next year will be, but it is a fact that he is
to receive an increase, and he got a check
yestprday afternoon for a good slice of ad
vance money. Shugart also received an in
crease, and he, too, will get some advance
money. Maul signed for the same salary,
and he did not need any money in advance.
Grant Briggs signed for a salary somewhat
similar to that which Berger received last
Beaton, uuu ue way receive suuue uuauuc
money if he needs it, in two or three weeks'
time.
Beckley was not definitely heard from,
but it was stated "by a gentleman who
claimed to know whereof he spoke, that
Jake intends to play in Pittsburg next sea
son. But it probably would not have been
bad policy if Secretary Scandrett had left
the city yesterday to pay Jake a visit. It
is a fact that agents from Association, clubs
are using very strong inducements
TO ALLXTBE JAKE FROM PrTTSBD3G,
and this being so, it might not be amiss to
even send Secretary Scandrett off to-mor-
rcw post haste to find out definitely what
the big first baseman intends to do.
Efforts will be made this week to sign
more players and Manager McGunnigle will
likely be home in the early part of the week
with the signatures of two or three new
men. Until he returns certain players will
not be signed, because until then it will not
be clearly known what men he wants. There
is a general desire that Hanlon be re
tained on the team, and it is likely that he
will be kept. Baldwin will sign without any
trouble and the prospects of getting a good
team together in a very short time are bet
ter than they have been since the close of
the championship season.
The good work done and done so speedily
and well only demonstrates the necessity of
the directors moving together in unity.
They all desire beyond all things to have a
winning team here and the best way to eet
them is to have confidence one in another
and throw personalities to one side.
DANNY DENIES IT.
He Says That He Has Hot Signed With the
New Torks.
New York, Oct. 21 Special Several days
ago Secretary X. E. Young, of tho National
League, in his official bulletin announced
tho promulgation of "Danny" Richardson's
contract with the Now York club. Every
body, of course, supposed that he had
signed. But it seems that he has not. I met
him yesterday and a more surprised person
than he nt such news would have been
difficult to find. "Why, I havo not put my
name to a contract," he exclaimed. "lean
not understand what it all moans. Last
spring I signed n contract which gave tho
club an option on my services for noxt sen
son, providing we could agree on salary.
That we havo done.
"Whether we will or not is Impossible to
say. I think my sorviccs are worth a certain
amount, and if it Is not offered to me I shall
not play here."
This Is the first time that Secretary Younc
has sent out the name of a player as having
signed when in reality he has not. Another
strange thins is the fact that he has an
nounced that all the Chicago players havo
signed. If what they say is true they have
refused to sign. There is n mistake some
where. The Grays Won.

A New Knclng Stable.
New Yoek, Oct. 21. It is officially an-
nounced that the name of Belmont isnotto
disappear from tho racing world. It is ild
that the eight brood mares which were
bought at the recent sale by K. K. Alcock
were bought for August- Belmont, Jr. iThe
Babylon tnrm was also bonnht for Mr. Bel
mont. Young Mr. Belmont will make the
mares the nucleus of another nursery stud,
which he hopes to make the equal of his
father's. Thoro is a general belief that some
of the yearlings purchased by James Rowo
are. to be trained for and run in the name of
Mr." Belmont, but this lacks confirmation.
CAUSING BTJIN ALL BOUND.
Mr. Williams Says That's the Besults of
Stopping Pool and Deer Selling.
Dcbcqite, Ia., Oot. 21. There is a bitter
war at Independence and excitement runs
high. After the August races nt the cele
brated kite-shape trotting course, the Pro
hibitionists of Independence roasted the
Sheriff for allowing gambling, pool selling
and the liquor selling to go on unmolested.
Tho Sheriff resolved, not to get into the
same trouble this year, and on Thursday
w.ent out to Rush Park, where he stopped
the wheel of fortune and pool selling. Mr.
Williams, the owner of the race track, was
indignant, yet could not help himself. Fri
day the Sheriff started out to repeat his
closing procoss, but a friend telegrapbed
Williams that the Sheriff was coming, and
tho plaoes were found closed.
Williams was thoroughly aroused. He
said when he built the track in Independ
ence two-thirds of the stores were vacant.
Now there is not nn empty building. If per
secuted further In this matter he would
plow throutrh his track, plant corn and
move away." Business men aie also indig
nant. They say thov have done a tremen
dous business because' of the races. The
horsemen, judges and others are leaving In-
ueDenaenca on every train. Sherin nun is
seizing all the beer which comes in sight,
and pandemonium reigns supreme. There
is no telling what the outcome will be. In
dignation meetings are beine held, and busi
ness men declare they will not submit to
having the town thus handicapped.

NEARLY THREE YEARS
The Work or Dr. Copeland and His As
sociates Has Ueen ISeforo This Com
munity A Record That Occasions Jnst
and Honest Pride.
Three years ago Dr. Copeland and his as
sociates came' to Pittsburg, regularly in
dorsed by Bellevue Hospital Medical Col
lese of NewYortand other eminent medical
authorities, and practically sustained by
their reputation Jot honest and skillful
work In other large cities. They located at
66 Sixth avenue, wbero they havo been ever
since, ana wnero tney expect to remain ror
many years to come. Thcio Is no surer test
of genubie merit and skill than this. Ad
vertising will urlnjf patients, hut it won't
keep them. Advertising will start practice,
but it won't maintain it, year after year, in a
community, i'ermanencealoneisthecertaln
test of skill and honesty. By three years of
cordial support and patronage, the people
of Pittsburg have- testified to the skill and
faithfulness of Dr. Copeland and his asso
ciates. That their practice is to-day larger
than it ever was before, their business and
advertising in overy way more extensive,
shows that success is built not upon adver
tising, but upon the merit of their work as
physicians and specialists.
Bnt there have been other tests to their
superior skill and professional honesty and
sincerity. Every week during the three
years that have passed there has appeared
in the daily papers some new testimonials
showing the results of their work. These
statements have not been from obscure or
unknown people, nor from people living in
distanttownB and. cities. They havo been
from men and wpmen of Pittsburg, all well
known in the neighborhood in which they
live, and most of them representative mem
bers of some particular profession, trade or
craft. There have been no "make-shifts."
The interviews have been accompanied with
portraits and addresses and in many cases
the fac simile signatures of the patients
speaking. The nnmber of patients testify
ing to their superior skill and faithful con
scientious work has been greater than in the
history of medical practice in this city or
State, ever in the snuie length of time, gave
testimony In favor of any physician or firm
of physicians.
Nolcss'in.the'charaeterof the testimony,
than.in tho number of the witnesses has the
record of these; three years been unparal
leled and,unequalcd. The witnesses nave,
usha&been stated, 'been worthy members
of the community. -IUistlie respectand es
teem of good men and-women, that Drs.
Copeland and Hnll have reason to feel prond
of. It is.npon the.fnct that, by the thorough
ness and skillfulness 'of their professional
work, as well'as by the honesty and frank
ness of their printed utterances, they have
merited and enjoy the confidence of right
thinking rqen.nnd women In the community
that they congratulate themselves.
"But have Drs.'Copeland and Uall cured
all the patients who have applied to them?"
someone asks.
Certainly -not. No physician does. No
honcst.pbysiclan pretends to. The major
ity of cases taken by Drs. Copeland and Hall
are unquestionably cured. The greater ma
jority undoubtedly benefited. But there
are cases that have not been cured,-in some
instances ubl-uuso tne paticuo uiu not iui
lo w the directions and treatment faithfully
for the presbnbed length of time, in some
instances because the contraction of fresh
disease prevented hopes for progress, and in
other-and perhaps more frequent instances,
because the disease had been neglected and
allowed to run on solong-before they came
to thesa physicians that n cure was next to
impossible.
In curable cases, where patients follow
faithfully and regularly their directions,
and no contraction of -fresh disease inter
feres with the progress of their treatment,
they do. effect permanent and complete
cures, as over a thousand witnesses, to whom
they can refer In tho city of Pittsburg, will
ingly testify. .. : t
In a word, the test of the skill of Drs.
Copeland and Hall Is their thrpo years of
successful practice in this community, their
unassailable tecoi'd in the public prints. and
the overwhelming evidence hmong your
friends and neighbors willing and volun
tary witnesses that they enre what they
profess to cure, thatthey are acknowledged
masters over the diseases they treat.
Their course in ther fnture will be the
same as that they have pursued in the past.
The same skillful and conscientious workrin
offices and Inbomtorlesrtho sumo frankness
and unatsallAblo truthfulness in printed
ufteiances. Where public protection de
mands it they will not hesitate to'denonnce
fraud. They will never quibble or evade,
bnt as they have done in the past, will state
facts and let the public Judge.
They may be pardoned for faying this
much of themselves. It has not been said
in a spirit of hoastfnlrtess, bnt of honest
pride. They nre proud of the record of tne
three years past, proud of the friendship and
respect of, intelligent nnd worthy men and
women, proud ot tho intelligence and worth
represented in their practice, which we he
lluva is to-day the largest over carried on in
these t,wo citieB.and tliankfnl.very thankful,
for the cord inland steadfast support thnt has
been extended to them in this community.

Here, v
When tire tendency of tho catarrhal pro
gress is evidently to tho cliest and lungs,
and the backing cough; losi of flesh, pains
in the chest, and failing strength give their
nnmistakable evidence of a predisposition
to consnmption.'the-patient should spare no
pains and lose no time in arresting what is
practical and imminent danger. With the
coming on of a winter, which, ir the predic
tions of the weather prophets are true, will
be an unnsiiallysoyere one, the care of cases
like these becomes of even more than usual
importance.
Catarrh and Consumption,
which go hand in. hand, in this climate of
ours, should be met at tnis season witu tne

me told greatly. My sleep was broken and
restless and appeared to afford me no rest,
for I would be about as tired, or more so,
in the morning when I awakened than when
Iwenttobed.
"I tried many remedies without relief, and
a short time ago I decided to call on Drs.
Copeland and Hall at CG Sixth avenue, Pitts
burg. They treated me for catarrh of the
head and stomach successfully. My head is
clear for the llrst time in years; my appetite
has come back witb.'reinforcernents, and my
digestion is scmnd. I sleep well and awaken
refreshed, and am gaining in general health
and strength every day. I want to recom
mend these gentlemen to others as con
scientious and skillful physicians. They do
what they promise."
The Congh. Is Gone.
"For a year past-I had been a constant snf
fcrer from a diseaso which more or less in
terfered with my business and social life,"
said 3Ir. Peter Iiouth, a well-known grocer
of Fifth avenue, Homestead. Mr. Kouth 13
a- man or 40 and lives with his family in'
Homestead where he is well and favorably
known.
"My head and noso appeared to be con
stantly clogged up and full, and I had dull
heavy pains over my eyea, my throat was
dry and sore and the mucus dropping from,
the back part of my head into my throat
would fill it up, causing me a disagreeable
cough, especially In the morning; my
sense of smell was considerably im
paired; my appetite was fitful, my
sleep, while apparently sound enough,
did not appear to refresh me and when I
awakened iy the mornisos I was languid
and tired all throngh. A short time ago, at
tracted by the interviews published in the
daily papers of cases, similar to mine, cared
by Drs. Copeland and Hall, of 65 Sixth ave
nue, I called upon these gentlemen. They
told me I was suffering from catarrh of the
bead and throat. I placed myself under
their care and Improved steadily Mt

"My nose and bead are clear and my gen
eral health is better than for many years.
My appetite and sleep are normal and, alto
gether, I can heartily say thar I am
thoroughly satisfied with their treatment of
my case:
Was It Incurable?
"Physicians told me, dnring the time I
suffered from a disease of whjch I am now
practicallv cured, that I never wonld be
cuted of it: that it was an incurable disease,
I had been afflicted tor 20 years witb.
catarrh of the head, throat and stomach."
The speaker was Mr. John T. Decker, con
tractor, living at the corner of Wellington
and Picnic streets. "I called unon Drs. Cope

continued, "and
placed myself under
their care. The medi
cines they gave me
seemed to go direct to
tho seat of my disease.
I never expected the
benefits these gentle
men have given me.
My head is clear ifnd

from pain: my hearing
