I had no appetite, and, when Ilorced myself
to eat, my food lay like lead, causing a
heavy bloated ud feeling with belching of

I was sick all over, and my condition be
came so bad that I thought I could never be
cured. I lost flesh and strength steadily.
"I went to a number of physicians and
took treatment fiom them, but obtained no

A COAL MINER'S STATEMENT,
Illustrating tho Effects of Irritating Parti
cles of Dnst and Exposure to the Damp
and Foul Air of the Mines.
Although chronic catarrh in this climate
is nearly always caused by negleoted colds,
occasionally tho exciting cause is traced to
irritating particles of dust and exposure to
foul air, as of coal mines, factories, etc. This
form of catarrh is due to particles of fine
dust being carried in the air Inspired, In
haled from tho mote-laden atmosphere In
shops, mines, factories, etc, and to which
stonecutters, cutlets, coal miners, brass
woikers, nailers, sawmakers, etc., are
liable.
This at times so often affects the system
that the patient, betas he is aware of it,
suffers from almost total nervous prostra
tion and debility, duo to depleted and viti
ated blood, as well as the local trouble
caused by the irritating particles or dust
flying in the air, and needfe careful and gen
eral constitutional treatment as well as
treatment directed to the local ailment.
Mr. John Horan, a coal miner, who lives
at Woodvillo, P. C, n little hamlet 10 miles
distant, on the Washington branch of the
Panhandle Bailway, sajs: "I had been
troubled off and on for several years, and
doctored from time to time with little or no
benefit, till finally I grew so bad I became
seriously alarmed about my condition, and
felt that 1 would have to have immediate
relief or give up my work. I ached all over
nearly all the time, and my body felt as sore
as If it had been pounded with a club. I had
a constant pain over my eyes and through
my temples, and my oye-balta aohed and
pained me away back into my head. I also
had shooting pains through my chest to
each shoulder blade, pain ana soreness in
the small of my back, over the region of my
kidneys, and pain shooting down the legs to
the knees, with nt times a numbness and
pricking sensation, as of needles jagging
me.
"My nose arid throat were constantly
stopped up with a sticky, tenacious mucus
and 1 would often hawk out little chunks of
hard stuff as black as coal. My ears were
also affected by roaring and hissing sonnds.
"The appe tlte became affected and nothing
I ate seoraod to ngroo with me. After eat
ing, my stomach would swell up likea drum,
and I was troublod with belching of gas,
palpitation of heart, dizzy and smothering
sensations, etc.
"Although I slept sound, my sleep was
troubled with horrid dreams, and I worked
all night in these dreams, and awoke in the
morning tired, unrof reshed, sore and aching
all over.
"I shall always bless the day I was directed
to Drs. Copeland, Hall and "Byers, for they
have done for me what no other doctors
could do they have cured me safe and
sound, and now I feel like a new person. I
have no aches or pains, eat and sleep well,
and awaken In the morning rested and
anxious for my dally work. I shall never
forget what they have done for me."
WOMAN'S TROUBLE.
General Weakness, Pain, Distress and Ex
haustion Results of Catarrh.
Many women to-day suffer pain and are
weak and norvous without knowing the
cause. Their work gieatly fatigues them
and they cannot eat well. At night tbey
rest poorly, and in the morning feel wholly
unfit for the duties of the day. In short,
they are miserable from general Impair
ment of health, besides enduring pain and
distress hard to fully describe. Many such
cases are the resultpf catarrh, which affects
the whole system, and they find quick and
certain relief from treatment fitted to the
case.
.such an instance Is related below by Mrs.
Melina Kardley, No. 1351 Second avenue,
city. Said she: V
"I had been troubled so long that I almost
despaired of evergetting relief muoh loss a
cure; but thanks to the careful and skillful
treatment or Drs. Copeland, Hall and Byers
I have received bath relief and cure. I vras
troubled so with headaches that sometimes
I felt that I would go out of my head, pains
all over foiehead, through temples, on top
and in back of head and back of neck. My
neck would become sore and stiff with a
constant desire to draw it backward to ob
tain relief from the strain.
"I couldn't sleep at night, oouldn't lay in
bed, I was nervous and Testless, with a con
stant dread hanging over me, and was as
tiled and sore all over in the morning as If
1 bad been beaten with a club.
"I had but little appetite and what little I
ate caused a bloated and uncomfortable
feeling. I got so I vomited almost every
meal and toward the last I both vomited up
blood and passed blood from the bowels. I
lost flesh and strength steadily, night sweats
came on and altogether I was in an almost
hopeless state. ' ,
"Drs. Copeland, Hall and Byers cured me
or all my distressing ailments and I (eel
that I cannot speak too hleblyof tho kind
and careful attention given me by these
skillful physicians."

To the Orient in order to see
the slow, plodding, primitive
Turkish way of producing that
one great necessity to modern
American comfort, Turkish
Toweling. The "Star and
Crescent Mills" have made
it possible to bring Turkey's
industry that part of it to
America.
Yes, here we have right at
home under the very shadow
of the Stars and Stripes
HagoppasMardirosian, a native
Armenian, giving a practical
demonstration of the plodding
Turk-style of producing I ow
els a hundred years ago! Slow
and tedious, slow and tedious.
The very motion of his method
bespeaks the lethargy of the
nation and ol the time.
But what of this exhibit in
side the store? Alert, aggres
sive America Allegheny the
particular city, BoGgs & Buhl
the exclusive locality, where
you may have opportunity of
seeing the industrial art of
Turkish Towel &aking as 19th
Century American genius and
grit have made it as modern
MERCHANDISING vMETHODS show
how it's done. The swift, fly-
ing threads; the clickity clack,
clackity click of shuttle and
loom, chatter of Yankee pluck
and ingenuity, and all around
heaps of Snowy Whiteness pile
high ten' yards to one made
by Hagopos Mardirosian
as the friction, health-glow pro
ducing agency falls in soft, ab
sorbent Towels ready for use,
at prices making it possible to
pick up Tow,els at such trifling
cost as tKat all may enjoy the
luxury.
Failure to see this Novel In

seeing one of the most interest
ing sights in fabric-producing
machinery.
