Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
deafness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
inflamed condition of the mucous lin
ing Of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube is infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when it is entirely closed,
deafness is the result, and unless the
Inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caus-
ed by Catarrh, which is nothing but
an infamed condition of the mucous
surfaces.

The new theory advanced by L. T.
Cooper relative to the human stom-
ach has attracted such widespread
attention that the public in cities
visited by the young man has been
Joined by many physicians in dis
cussion of his beliefs and medicines.
Mr.. Cooper says that human health
is dependent almost entirely upon
the stomach. He says that no dis
ease can be conquered without first
alternating all stomach disorders. He
further says that most men and wom-
en- of this generation are half sick,
owing to degenerate stomachs. And
lastly, he claims that his New Dis
covery medicine will rejuvenate the
human stomach in 80 days.
Cooper has been travelling from
one city to another conducting in
each what he calls a campaign of
education For the past year he has
met the public in the larger cities
of the country, and hissuccess has
been phenomenal Thousands of
people have flocked to his headquar-
ters wherever he has gone, and the
sales of his medicine has been beyond
anything of the kind ever before wit
messed
Possibly the most interesting fea-
ture of the attention this young man
has attracted is what his army of
followers, whom he has converted to
his beliefs through his medicines,
have to say on the subject. The fol-
lowing statements are from two we'll
known residents of Chicago and Bos-
ton, respectively, and the enthusiasm
of these is characteristic of Cooper's
admirers generally.
Mrs. H. B. Mack, of 1901, State
street, Chicago, says: Il have been
suffering for II years from a COM
bination of stomach troubles, catarrh

anew to the flow of the wealth of
American heiresses to Europe in ex-
change for foreign titles. More than
500 American girls have married til
tied foreigners. Their total dowry is

Among the wealthiest of these inn
portant financial captures was when
the Duke of RoXburghe bestowed his
title upon Miss May Goelet of this
city. From the many millions of the
late Ogden Goelet it was stated that
$10,000,000 was the endowment por-
ton of the bride.
This is about $4,000,00O more than
Miss Anna Gould carried abroad to
bolster up the PROSTATE fortunes of
Count Boni de Castellane. But of
Miss Gould's endowment it is believ-

There are certain facts from
which only one deduction is possible
and any attempt to reason otherwise
is rejected by a rational mind. For
instance, when one says That a man
has but one love and one object in
life, and that is the accumulation of
dollars, and that he owns a bank, or
a hotel or a store or real estate in a
city, and then, predicates on these
facts the conclusion that such a man
does not desire the development of
the city, we put down the one max
ing the assertion as deficient either
in intellect or honesty. If a man
owns a bank in a city, anything that
Increases the population of the city,
puts more money into the channels
of local trade or conduces to its in
dustrfal development will naturally
be desired by him, because all these
things aid his business. II the city
grows his bank will grow. If the city
dwindles his business not only will
dwindle, but it will be jeopardized.
Could one imagine a storekeeper
hinderlng the Industrial development
of the city, or an increase in popula-
ton or per capita wealth? Think of a
person interested in a hotel or street
railway doing anything to prevent
the growth of a city! A man of that
disposition would not have sense
enough to accumulate the money
with which to secure an interest IN
anything.
