COURT DECIDED
IN HIS FAVOR
Cooper Fought to Retain Formula Which
Has Made a Fortune.
L. T. Cooper, the man who believes
that 90 per cent, of all ill health of
this generation is caused by stomach
trouble, is fast winning a national
faith in his theory. His claim is now
admitted by a surprising number of
people throughout the country, and he
Is gaining new adherents every day.
While speaking of his success in a
recent interview, Mr. Cooper said: “I
believed ten years ago that any one
who could produce a formula that
would thoroughly regulate the stom
ach would have a fortune. When I
got hold of this formula I knew with
in six months that I was right, and
that my fortune was made. I called
the medicine Cooper’s New Discovery,
although I did not get up the formula.
1 have owned it, however, for over
three years. I have had one lawsuit
over it, which I won in the courts.
When it was settled The Cooper Medi
cine Company became the only firm in
the world that can prepare the medi
cine. The preparation has sold like
wildfire wherever introduced. As
have said before, it is successful sim
ply because it puts the stomach in
perfect shape, then nature does the
rest. There are any number of com
plaints never before associated with
stomach trouble that the medicine
alleviated in thousands of cases/’J
Among statem'’nts obtained recently
from users of this medicine that is
arousing such universal discussion is
one from Mrs. Emma Stanley, living
in Chicago, at 713 Washington Boule
vard, who said: “Perhaps I had the
most complicated case that Mr. Cooper
had to deal with. I was troubled for
years with my ctomach. i consulted
with doctors and took many patent
medicine preparations without result.
My stomach was in such a wretched
shape that I could not enjoy a meal
that I ate.
“I was very nervous, and could
hardly sleep; I had a roaring in my
ears and dancing spots before my eyes.
I felt very bad and weak. Then there
was a very sore spot at the pit of my
stomach that nearly set me wild.
“I heard about the Cooper medicine
and decided to try it. I used four bot
tles, and the improvement In my case
has been really wonderful. My nerves
have been quieted, and I am so much
improved that I feel like a new wo*
man.
“I cannot say too much for these
wonderful remedies, for they have
made me well.”
We sell the Cooper medicines
and consider them well worth a trial

ach trouble and iU attendant disease*.

seen hovering upon the road, at the
distance of some three or four hun
dred paces in front. Robinson no
sooner recognised this squad than he
took the lady’s handkerchief and
hoisted it on a rod, as a flag of truce,
and, at the same moment, directed
the escort to retreat,* apprising them
that their presence was no longer
necessary, as he had now an oppor
tunity to deliver his charge into the
hands of friends. The British horse
men, accordingly, took their leave;
and, in the next moment, Horse Shoe
surrendered to a patrole, who an
nounced themselves to be a part of the
command of Colonel Davie, of North
Carolina militia—a galant partisan,
then well konwn to fame, and whose
after exploits fill up no inconsider
able page of American history.
It does not enter into the purpose
of my story' to detain my reader with
a minute account of Mildred’s home
ward journey; but having now trans
ferred her to the protection of a
friendly banner, it will suffice to say
that she arrived the same evening at
Charlotte, where she spent the night
in the midst of the active, warlike
preparations which were in progress
to receive Cornwallis.
It was towards sunset on the follow’-
in# day, when, wearied with the toil
of a long, rapid journey, our travellers
arrived in front of a retired farm
house, on a road leadinsj through the
upper districts of North Carolina.
The cultivation around this dwelling
showed both good husbandry and a
good soil, and there was an appear
ance of comfort and repose which
was an unusual sight in a country so
much alarmed and ravaged by war,
as that over which the wayfarers had
lately journeyed. The house stood
some short distance apart from tue
road, and in the porch was seated an
elderly man of a respectable appear-
nce, to whom a young girl was, at
bis moment, administering a draught
of water from a sinaU>hoope.d. wood
en vessel which she ! b«d in her hand.
“T am narched wlttf thirst,” said
MUdred. “pray get me' some of that
water.”
“The nlaoe looks so well, ma’am,”
replied the sergeant, “that I think we
could not do better than make a stop
here for the night. Good day, neigh
bor’ What is the name of the river
I see across yon field, and where
mought we be. just at this time?”
“It is the Yadkin,” answered the
man, “and this county, T believe, is
Iredell—though I speak only by guess,
for I am but a stranger in these
parts.”
“The lady would he obligated,” said
Horse Shoe, ‘‘for a drop of that water:
and, if it was agreeable, she mought
likewise be pleased to put up here
for the night.’’
“The people of the house arc kind
and worthy,” replied the old man,
“and not likely to refuse a favor.
Mary, take a cun to the lady.”
The girl obeyed; and. coming up
to the party with the vessel in her
band, she suddenly started as her eye
fell upon Horse Shoe and her pale
and wan countenance was seen bath
ed in tears.
“Mr. Robinson!” she exclaimed,
with a faltering voice; “you don’t
know me?—me, Mary Musgrove. Fath
er, it is our friend Horse Shoe Robin
son!” Then placing the vessel upon
the ground, she ran to the sergeant’s
side, as he sat upon his horse, and
leaning her head against his saddle,
she wept bitterly, sobbing out: “It
is me, Mary Musgrove. John—our
John—that you loved—he is dead—
ho is dead!”
In an instant Allen Musgrove was
at the gate, where he greeted the
sereeant with the affection of an old
friend.
This recognition of the miller and
his daughter at once confirmed the
sergeant in his determination to end
his day’s journey at this spot. In a
few moments Mildred and her com
panions were introduced into the
farm-house, where they were heartily
welcomed by the indwellers, consist
ing of a sturdy, cheerful tiller of the
soil, and a motherly dame, whose
brood of children around her showed
her to be the mistress of the family.
The scene that ensued after the
party were seated in the house was,
for some time, painfully affectfnp.
Poor Mary, overcome by the asso
ciations called up to her mind at the
sicht of the sergeant, took a seat near
him. and silently gazed in bis face,
visibly laboring under a strong desire
to express her feelings in words, but
at the same time stricken mute by
the intensity of her emotions.
After a long suspense, which was
biol ' ii only by her sobs, she was en
abled to utter a few disjointed sen
tences, in which she recalled to the
sergeant the friendship that had ex
isted between him and John Ramsay;
and there was something peculiarly
touching in the melancholy tone with
which, in accordance with the habits
inculcated by her religious education,
and most probably in the words of her
father’s frequent admonition, she
attributed the calamity that had
befallen her to the kindly chas
tisement of heaven, to endure
which she devoutly, and with a sigh
that showed the bitterness of her suf- >
fering. prayed for patience and sub
mission. Allen Musgrove, at this
ocean crash against & solid rock. It
seemed at once to break down the
illusion which she had cherished with
such fond affection. For the remaind
er of the evening the intercourse of
the party was anxious and thought
ful, and betrayed the unhappy im
pression which the intelligence just
communicated had made upon the
feelings of Mildred and her brother.
Musgrove, after the travellers had
been refreshed by food, and invigor
ated by the kind and hearty hospitali
ty of the good man under whose roof
they were sheltered, proceeded to
give the sergeant a history of what
had lately befallen in the neighbor
hood of the Enoree. Some days after
the escape of Butler, the miller’s own
family had drawn upon themselves
the odium of the ruling authority.
His mill and his habitation had been
reduced to ashes by a party of Tories
who had made an incursion into this
district, with no other view than to
wreak their vengence against sus
pected persons. In the same inroad,
the family of David Ramsay had once
more been assailed and all that was
spared from the first conflagration
was destroyed in the second. Many
other houses through this region had
met the same fate. The expedition

Musgrove had sent his wife and
younger children, almost immediately
after the assault upon him, to the
care of a relative in Virginia, whither
they had been conducted some days
previous to the date of his present
meeting with Horse Shoe by Christo
pher Shaw; whilst he and Mary had
remained behind, for a short space,
to render assistance to the family of
Ramsay, to whom they felt them
selves affined almost as closely as if
the expected alliance by marriage
had taken place. When this duty was
discharged, and Ramsay’s family
were provided with a place of refuge,
.Musgrove had set forward with his
daughter to rejoin his wife and child
ren in their new asylum. It was upon
this journey that they had now been
accidentally overtaken by our travel
lers.
The disclosure of the motives of
Mildred’s expedition to Mary and her
fathor, as may be supposed, warmed
up their feelings to a most affection
ate sympathy in her troubles.. They
had often heard of Butler’s attach
ment to a lady in Virginia, and were
aware of her name, from the incidents
that had occurred at the trial of But
ler, and from the nature of Horse
Shoe’s mission to Virginia. Mary had
nursed in her mind a fanciful and
zealous interest in behalf of the lady
who wag supposed to have engrossed
Butler’s affections, from the earnest
devotion which she bad witnessed In
his demeanor, first at Adair’s,
and often afterwards during his
captivity. The effect of this pre
conceived favor now showed itself in
her behavior to Mildred; and, in the
gentle play which it gave to her kindly
sentiments, a most happy change was
wrought in her present feelings. She
at once warmly and fervently attach
ed herself to Mildred, and won her
way into our lady’s esteem by the
most amiablo assiduities. In these
offices of love, the poignancy of ner
own grief began to give way to the
natural sweetness of her temper, and
they were observed, in the same de
gree, to enliven Mildred’s feelings.
Mary hung fondly about her new ac
quaintance, proffered her most min
ute attentions of comfort, spoke often
of the generous qualities of Butler,
and breathed many a sincere prayer
for future happiness to him and those
he loved.
As Mildred pondered over the new
aspect which the tidings of this eve
ning had given to her conditions, her
inclination and duty both prompted
her to the resolve to make an effort to
join Butler, instead of returning to
the Dove Cote. She was apprised by
Musgrove that the prisoner ha4 Been

She thought with alarm over the

casion, added an opinion which rather
favored the enterprise.
“It was not much out of the way,
he said, “to go ag far as Burk Court
House, where, at least, the lady was
likely to learn something of the plans
of Ferguson, and sh© might either
wait there, or take such direction af
terwards as her friends should ad
vise.”
Mary begged that whatever route
Mildred thought proper to pursue, she
might be allowed to accompany her;
and this request was.so much to the
liking of Mildred, that she earnestly
implored the miller’* consent to the
plan. With some reluctance Mas-
grove acquiesced; and, feeling thus
doubly interested la lb* fortune# of
the party, he finally determined him

enterprise.
