PARASITES BEING REMOVED
COOpsFs Medicine Hrings New Disease to
Light in g. Louis,
PEOPLE ARE THOROUGHLY FRIGHTENED
Young Man Explains the Cause OF
rroubIe-says Hideous Creatures
Are Taken Into SYSTEM
with Rare Meat.

ST. LOUIS, Oct 3.-Probably the most
unusual feature of the excitement that
has been created by L. T. Cooper's visit
to this city is the removal of parasites
or tapeworms by his preparations.
During the early part OF Coopers stay
in St. Louis individuals who were TAX
ing his New Discovery" as It is called,
brought either to himself or to physi-
clans throughout the city immense para
sites that had left the system after US
ing the medicine.
Many of these people were frightened.
and cases of this sort became so numer-
Gus that Cooper finally made the follow
ing statement for publication;
He said: I'm every city visit these
things are brought to me within a few
days after my medicine is sold in the
city. They are what Is known as the
tape-worm, and grow to enormous size.
Few indeed realize how prevalent these
creatures are. l think / have been the
first to demonstrate what large factor
they are In the poor health of this gem
Grafton. believe that fully one-half the
chronic stomach trouble that is so uni
verssl is caused by these parasites.
"Individuals may have them for years
and not be aware OF the reason for con-
tinued ill-health, but attribute 1t to many
different diseases, when in reality one of
these creatures is robbing them of their
vitality.
These parasites are taken into the sys-
TEN in .uncooked food or rare meat, in tho
form of an egg, which matches almost I'M
mediately. People suffering from them
/ experience a feeling of lassitude and are
extremely nervous. The action of the
New Discovery seems to be fatal to these
great worms and in most cases a few
doses of the medicine drives the creatures
from the system. / will have hundreds
of them brought to me before leave the
city"
This grewsome prophecy has been am
| ply verified, for not only hundreds but
thousands of st. Louis people have been
relieved of one of these fearful parasites
since taking Coopers, preparations, and
the entire city has been aroused by the
| fact.
Some OF these parasites are of such
| enormous size as to startle the imagins-
| ton. The statement OF Father John Bap-
list Arnoiis. one OF the best known and
best beloved priests In this section OF
the country. verifies this. His statement;
among others given to a reporter, was
| as follows;
| For years I suffered from what ]
| thought was a general run down condition
OF the system caused by stomach trou-
| BILE, l felt extremely tired all the time
| and II was a great effort to attend to my
| duties. 1 would wake up In the mornine
| feeling worn-out as when went to bed
! If stood for any length of time would
have a pain In the lower part of my back
and would have to sit down,
II was very nervous and depressed lr
| spirits, and was troubled with dizzy spells
would See spots before my eyes when
| stopped over and raised up quickly
had very irregular appetite, and woult
have palpitation Of the heart after ascend
=, ing the stairs.
''The talk about Mr.. Cooper's prepare
ton was so universal that decided Il
try some, although I do not take patent
! MEDICINES as rule. I took four dosei
of the New Discovery as II Is called
| and a tape-worm about ninety feet II
length left my system.
II am very thankful for this great 70
lief, and now know what has been tn,
cause of all my sufferings."

that he has sold one hundred THOUSAND
bottles to date In this city alone, an,
