STOMACH IS SEAT
OF HUMAN LIFE
New Theory Advanced by Young Man Is
Spreading Over Entire Country.


L. T. Cooper's theory concerning the
human stomach, which he claims to
prove with his new medicine, is being
given more respect and comment every
day.
Cooper claims that 90 per cent. OF
all i'll health Is due to stomach trouble
When interviewed about his theory fe.
Gently, he said: Stomach trouble is
the great curse of the 20th century
so far as the civilized races are con.
cerned. Practically all of the chronic
i'll health of this generation kfcaused
by abnormal stomachic conditions. In
earlier days, when the human race was
closer to nature, and men aud women
worked all day out of doors, digging
their frugal existence from the Aoil
the tired, droopy. half-sick people that
are now SO common, did not exist.
ITO be sure, there was sickness in
those days, but Ii was of a virulent
character. and only temporary. There
was none of this half,sick condition
all the time with which so many are
afflicted nowadays.
Il know positively that every bit of
this chronic iii health is caused by
stomach trouble. The human stomach
In civilized people today is degenerate.

ness has gradually come through a
sedentary existence. / further know
that few people can be sick with the
