Cooper Claims Monster Worms Are Cause of Fifty Per Cent of Stomach Trouble.

St. Louis. Oct 16.-Nothing has done so much to arouse the people of St. Louis as the immense number of para sites or tape-wOrms that are being re- moved from individuals by a prepara- ton known as Cooper's New Discovery.
 This preparation is being introduced in this city for the first time by l.. T. Cooper. the young philanthropist, who has made and is making a fortune by it's sale. The medicine is prepared at Dayton. Ohio, and is sold for various forms of stomach trouble. It is now being sold in St. Louis in such enOr- mus quantities as to have caused a general discussion by physicians throughout the city.
 Cooper claims that much suffering is the result of tape-worms, and stated early during his visit that the cTea- lures were responsible for fifty per cent of all stomach trouble. This claim seems to be verified as fully One-half of the individuals who have taken this preparation have been relieved of one of these creatures.
 4 reporter who spent an hour at COoper's headquarters, secured state ments from a number Of people, who brought one of the creatures to the young man, yesterday The following are some of these statements and are similar to all the rest:
 MT. Chas. H. Mueuz, living at 4031 Easton Ave, who brought with him d tape-wOrm about fifty feet in length. when questioned, said: "I have been in poor health for eight years. I have attributed it to my stomach, although l was not certain just what was the matter with me. l felt dull most of the time and the least exertion tired me. I had a very irregular appetite and always had a coated tongue l was troubled with shortness of breath, headaches, dizziness. sleeplessness and would see specks before my eyes if ] stopped over and raised up quickly
 Ny worst trouble was that l seem ed to lack all ambition and it was diff ficult to attend to my business as l always felt tired even after nights sleep. My mind seemed dull and slug gish most of the time and l had diff culty in remembering. I have had headache a great deal and have done everything possible, but could get no relief"
 T heard so much or this man Coop CT. that last Wednesday I bought a bottle of his preparation. I did not use it till yesterday when l took two doses of it and about two hours ago a parasite left my system I know now what made me feel so badly all these years I consider this the most re- markable preparation I ever heard Of. IL has made life worth living for me once more and l am very thankful"
 The statement of Mir. William Brack- en, of 72O Morgan St. was as follows. -I had suffered with stomach trouble for three years. I was not sick enough to be in bed, but just felt bad all the time. My greatest trouble was that I always felt tired, would get up in the morning feeling as tired as when I went to bed"
 II had a very irregular appetite and was troubled with dizzy spells. If I stood for any length of time I would have a dull pain in the lower part Of my back I was nervous and felt all the time as though something terrible was going to happen. My memory has been getting bad during the past year and my eyesight is not as keen as it was I have tried many kinds of medi- cines but nothing ever helped me"
 T had about given up all hope of ever being in good heath again. when I heard SO much Of Cooper and decided to try his medicines bought one bot tie of his New Discovery, as it is called. I took just three doses of the mdeicine and this tape-wOrm. which is over sev- enty feet in length, left my system. I never suspected that I had this thing. I feel better already and believe I will get back some Of the flesh had lost during the past few years. I would not have that thing in me again for thousand dollars
 These statements and others like them go far toward accounting for COOper's immense success here and elsewhere So far every claim made by the young man seems to have been
