In Great Demand.

The remarkable demand for the
New Discovery medicines with which
L. T. Cooper has been having such
wonderful success in the cure OF
stomach and kidney troubles, ca
tarrh, rheumatism and other dis
eases seems to increase every day.
His visit in New Orleans for the past
few weeks has created a sensation
in the south, the like of which has
never been known.
His remedies are we'll known in
this section of the country, and the
famous cures which they have effect
ed in St. Louis, Milwaukee, St.
Paul, Minneapolis, and other large
are we'll remembered. The retail
druggists say they have never
known any medicines for which there
was such a constant demand and the
! continued reports of marvellous
cures that are being published every
! where are topic of universal inter-
est.
The newspapers of New Orleans
are still printing interviews with
those whose cases are most extra
ordinary and as this, the last week
of Cooper's visit, draws to a close,
the excitement seems to have in
creased rather than abated.
One case in particular that has
attracted especial attention during
the past few days is that of Mr..
Leon Labusquiere, 1014 Burgundy
St., New Orleans, who had been
ciolx for fftoop voore op1 bod 1oo
tored for various diseases without
result. There was a bright twinkle
in the mans eye and a radiant
smile on his face as he greeted his
interviewer the other day, which
seemed to bespeak anything but
poor health. II shall be pleased to
state my experience he said, in
answer to request, ''for my case

tell the public what these wonderful
medicines have done for me. My
suffering for the past fifteen years
has been more than I can describe,
for during all that time I have sell
dom had a we'll day. My appetite
was very Irregular. Sometimes I
could not get enough to eat and
at other times the very sight of food
would make me sick. I suffered
greatly from constipation. I did
not seem to get any strength from
what I ate, was always tired, and
the slightest exertion would wear me
out completely. It was a great
effort for me to attend to my duties.
I was very nervous and at night I
could not rest we'll. I would wake
up in the morning feeling as tired
as when I went to bed. There were
few days that I did not have
dreadful headache and times would
have queer dizzy spells. I thought
for time that I had catarrh and
doctored for it, but without relief.
Nothing I could do seemed to bene-
fit me, and when I began to hear of
the wonderful success Cooper was
having with MS medicines IN the
treatment of cases similar to mine,
I began using his medicines.
After had taken his New Dis
covery medicine only few days
horrible tapewOrm of enormous size
passed from my system and then L
knew what had been causing me all
this trouble. From that time I i'm
proved rapidly and now feel we'll
and strong again. I will gladly
give any information I can to any
one who is suffering as I
was.'
The sale of Cooper's medicine in
Princeton has been phenomenal and
at The Home Drug Store, where the
remedies are sold in this city, it is
said that some very remarkable
cures have been reported right here
at home.

I'm experiments upon digestion Of
albumen with gastric juice obtained
from the stomach of animals it was no.
ticed that after certain time the proc
ess began to slacken, but was renewed
merely by the addition Of water. The
gastric juice became saturated with
the substance it had dissolved and
ceased to act upon what remained un-
til it had been diluted. In the living
stomach this dilution is Of even greater
Importance, for it permits of the i'm
mediate absorption of the substances
soluble in water and which do not re-
quire the specific action Of the gastric
juice" Neither the gastric juice nor
pepsin has any true digestive action
unless they be largely diluted with wa
ter
1t goes without saying that it is not
the food that is ingested, but that
which is digested, that does good, and
this principle holds good with water,
which is practically a food. Now,
when one resists the perfectly natural
desire to drink while eating he may be
not thirsty several hours afterward,
but he is advised nevertheless to force
himself to drink at that time. But if
he drinks then, the water, having no
food to mix with it, will go through
him, as it were-that is, it will do no
good.
The Importance of water to the hui
man economy may be inferred from
the various purposes it subserves.
First, it softens and dissolves solid
foods, thus facilitating their mastica-
ton and digestion; second, it main
tains a due bulk of blood and the
structures of the body; third, it keeps
substances in solution or suspension
While moving in the body; fourth, it
supplies elements in the body's chem
ical changes; fifth, it makes easy the
elimination Of waste materially; sixth, it
discharges superfuoGs heat by tran
SEPARATION through the skin and by ennis
sion through other outlets, and, sew
enth, it supplies in convenient form
heat to or abstracts heat from the
body. Some of these functions are
performed by water in it's liquid state
and others in state Of vapor.

instead Of drugs with your food.-G.
