special pains i'm its creation and the
tenor, Salvaneschi, will be intrusted

A Grim Tragedy

Is daily enacted in thousands of
homes as death claims, in each one,
another victim of consumption or
pneumonia. But when coughs and
colds are properly treated, the trag.
edy is averted. F. G. Huntley, of
Oaklandon, Ind, writes: "My wife
had the consumption, and three doc
tors gave her up. Finally she took
DIR. Kings New Discovery for Con-
sumption, Coughs and Colds, which
cured her, and today she is well and
strong" 1t kills the germs of all dis
eases. One dose relieves. Guaran-

medicines, and that the people of thi
city only imagine they have been ben
Gifted is too far-fetched to be seriously
considered.
zone physician says the people
haYe disease called 'Cooper-mania..
This may be clever, but it certainly ID
not true.
81 have sold these preparations on
trial ever since Mr.. Cooper made my
store his headquarters. Any one can
receive whatever they pay for the
preparations instantly if they are not
satisfied. Ifthe people are infatuated
with Mr.. Cooper, as is claimed, and
therefore buy his medicines, why
don't they come and ask for their
money after they have taken them?
Out of the thousands Of bottles we
have sold, almost none haye been re-
turned.
GAS matter of fact, St. Louis is
no exception in the immense demand
for these preparations. Before Mr..
Cooper came to this city I received
letters from leading druggists through
out the East telling me that wherever
he goes his preparations are sold al
most to the exclusion of all others.
"Every city in this country where
these medicines have been introduced
has had the same experience as St.
Louis. This ought to be prnnfposi-
tive that the psople know what they
are about"
In the light of this statement it will
be interesting to see how these prepa-
rations are received in Laclede.

Interesting Statement
From the President Of the Wolf-Wilson
Drug Co., Of St. Louis, Relative
to the Cooper Remedies.
It Is Understood That a Local Dealer d
supply Of the Famous Medicines.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, JAN. IL, 1906.
Special Dispatch:
Will Laclede be affected with the
same astonishing demand for the new
preparations extolled by L. T. Cooper
as has visited st. Louis and the leading
cities of the East?
The question is brought forth by the
fact that local druggist has secured
the agency for the much-talked-ot
preparations that are producing such
a furor, and about which the newspa-
pers of the United States have devot-
ed columns.
In fact, a discussion of Cooper
preparations and the unheard of de-
mand for them wherever introduced
has appeared in greater part of all
the leading dailies of the country.
The recently published statement
Of Mr.. Wolff, president of the Wolff
Wilson Drug Co., of St. Louis, which
appeared in the Post-Dispatch and
the Globe-Democrat of that city,
would seem to indicate that with no
exception these preparations produc-
ed the same results in all sections, re-
gardless of what pressure is brought
to bear against the medicines.
Mr.. VOLTS statement is as follows:
"This talk about St. Louis going mad
over Mr.. Cooper is absurd. If his
did not do all that is
claimed for them there would be no
demand. Mr.. Cooper has nothing
whatever to do with it.
