DECIDED
IN HIS FAVOR
Cooper Fought to Retain Formula
Which has Made a Fortune

Among statements 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-
ward, who said: perhaps had the
most complicated case that Mr.. Cooper
had to deal with. | was troubled for
years with my stomach. l consulted
with doctors and took many patent
medicine preparations without result.
My stomach was in such wretched
shape that l could not enjoy a meal
that | ate.
81 was very nervous, and could hard
ly sleep: | had a roaring in my ears
and dancing spots before my eyes. |
felt very bad and weak. Then there
was very sore spot at the pit of my
stomach that nearly set me wild
Il heard about the Cooper medicine
and decided to try it. | used four bot,
ties and the Improvement in my case
has been really wonderful. My nerves
have been quieted. and | am so much
improved that feel like new woman.
Il cannot say too much for these
wonderful remedies, for they have
made me WELL.
We sell the Cooper medicines and
consider them we'll worth trial by
any one afflicted with chronic stomach
trouble and it's attendant Diseases

L. r. Cooper, the man who believes
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: 81
believed 10 years ago that any one
who could produce formula that
would thoroughly regulate the stom-
ach would have a fortune. When
got hold of this formula | knew with
in six months that | was right, and
that my fortune was made. | called
the medicine Cooper's New Discovery
| did not get up the formula.
| have owned it. however, for over
three years. | have had one lawsuit
over it. which | 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, ii is successful sim
ply because, it puts the stomach in
perfect shape, then nature does the
rest. There are any number of com
plants never before associated with
stomach trouble that the medicine has
alleviated in thousands of cases.

description, from packing boxes, mail
pouches and thoroughly chained and
locked packing baskets have excited
the utmost establishment No one
seems to know how he accomplinshes
these feats but he never yet has failed
to make good in any of his remark
able attempts. Just before the COM
mencement of his engagement he
jumped into the Chicago river from the

1t was winter morning with the snow
falling and the temperature well to-

boat entirely free from handouts and
manacles. Such an unheard of feat as
this naturally excited the greatest as

his wonderful stage exhibitions.
Another great feature for this bill
is provided by Edwin Stevens. the dis

with Dickens" is not OILY one of the
most artistic but also one of the most
entertaining of the new vaudeville
acts. A clever comedy act in the line
of burnt cork minstrelsy is provided
by the Farrel-Taylor Trio whose work
III this difficult line is said to be quite
unequalled. 1t is pervaded by the gen
