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 III health Is due to stomach trouble.
When interviewed about his theory re-
Gently, he said. Stomach trouble Is
the great curse OF the Goth century
so far as the civilized races are con.
cerned. Practically all of the chronic
Ill health of this generation Is caused
by abnormal stomachic conditions In
earlier days, when the human race was
closer TO nature, and men and women
worked all day out of doors, digging
their frugal existence from the soil,
the tired, droopy, half-slck people that
are now so common, did not exist.
ITO be sure, there was sickness In
those days, but 1t was OF 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 Ill health is caused by
stomach trouble. The human stomach
in civilized people today is degenerate.
II lacks tone and strength. This weak.
ness has gradually come through a
sedentary existence. / further know
that few people can he sick with the
digestive apparatus in perfect shape,
The sole reason for my success is be.
