markaOie demonstration OF nls power
was given before the entire audience.
Selecting an elderly gentleman, whom
he noticed carrying an ear trumpet,
Cooper motioned for him 10 come for
ward. He poured a few drops Of a
peculiar liquid into the man's ears,
and then rubbed them softly for a mo-
ment. Stepping quickly backward TO
a distance Of sixty feet, he asked IN an
ordinary conversational tone, "Can
YOU hear me?n A look Of surprise
and delight spread over the mans face
as he answered, "les, l hear you
perfectly"
The gentleman was Mr.. John Aunt
ming. 81 Boston avenue Mr.. Auftning
stated that he had been deaf for many
years. lie said:
"For nearly nineteen years / heard
nothing. had a terrible, rumbling
noise constantly in my head that was
almost maddening. 1t appeared al
about the time / lost my sense ofhear-
ing, and no matter what treatment or
remedies tried, / could find no relief
Once i'm a long while couldju Just barely
distinguish "A noise, but in all Of those
long years / was unable 10 hear a hui
man voice. / had given up hope and
had resigned myself to life Of silence
when | read Of the Cooper prepara-
lions.
Thirty days ago | began the Cooper
treatment, and my condition was
almost immediately improved. / began
TO have confidence and took the rem
edies faithfully. Now, thanks 10 the
Cooper medicines alone, / can hear as
well as ever did in my life. My
family, and every one that knows me.
will testify to the wonderful cure IN
my case. / shall always be grateful
TO Mr.. Cooper for what he has done for
me, and ! want other people who are
deaf to know that their is yet hope for
them
MANY OF those who called had come
TO thank Mr.. Cooper for what he had
done for them, they having previously
written him a statement OF their con-
dition and having followed his instruc-
tons, had returned TO tell him Of their
cures.
a gentleman by the name Of Emil
Winkler exhibited glass jar, contain
ing parasite eighty feet long, which
he claimed had passed from his system
after taking seven doses Of Cooper S
medicine. The parasite was alive ana
squirming, and Mr.. Winkler was anNi'
Gus to know what II was.
When Cooper informed him the
cause Of his III health had been re-
moved. he was greatly relieved, and
was profuse in his thanks to the phil
anthrOpist.
Thousands Of people viewed the par
asite, and expressed surprise that suci
thing could exist I'm the human sys
| tenn.
Mr.. Winkler is a well known cleo
trician, living at lS2 East Ohio street
In speaking Of his experience, he SAID
"For five years ! have been more OF
less complaining. have had severe
headaches and any food that | would
eat would nauseate ME. would have
bad dreams almost every night, diz1,
spells would compel me to quit work
Black spots would appear before my

A story with a touch Of pathos wa
: related by a gentleman conyersan
with the facts that illustrates the kind
lv nature Of the philanthropist, an
explains to a great degree his wonder
ful hold upon the people.
4 delicate woman whose face OOi
traces Of care and suffering, and who's
frail body was distorted by the ray
ages Of disease, called at the Publ
, Drug Store and asked for MI Coope
but he was out and the little wOma
turned away, resignedly, but sadl
disappointed.
: To her il was another stroke OF mi
fortune. and she turned her wear
stems toward the little home, where
! sick husband was awaiting her return
I But her disappointment was Of sho
, duration, for Cooper was Just the
! coming up the street. Noting the ear
I worn look and halting step, he can
: quickly toward and assisted her car
e fully over the crossing by fe
T kindly, well-directed questions, d
learned that she had been to call upo
2 Mr.. Cooper TO secure medicine for hl
Il sick husband, who had been III for
long time, unable TO provide even q
barest necessities for his little iamll.
The poor woman was greatly astol
ished when she found that she WI

y Another feature Of Cooper's visit

J. great deal Of attention, is the maj
cures Of rheumatism that have be-
effected by the use Of his remedie
