Some Are Inclined to Give Young

He Ha. Created a Fad and Dub It
cooper's Mania.

II ST. Louis, Jan, 1S.-The astonishing
sale Of Coopers preparations In this
city has now reached such immense
figures that the medical fraternity at
large have become forced into open
discussion Of the man and his prepar-
j ations.
The physicians as a whole seem to
be divided with regard to the young
mans success in st. Louis-some be-
Ing willing to credit him for what he
has accomplished, while others assert
that the interest he has aroused is
but passing fad which cannot last,
ana which will die out as quickly as 1t
has sprung up.
The opinion of these two factions
made recently by two Of e. number OF
physicians who were interviewed on
the subject.
DIR. ]. e. Carass, when questioned
about the matter, said: Il have not
been believer in proprietary prepara-
tions heretofore, nor can say that
believe in them at present But I
must admit that some Of the facts re-
Gently brought to my notice concern
Ing this man Cooper have gone far
towards removing the prejudice I had
( formed against him when the unheard
OF demand for the preparations first
sprang up in this city"
Numbers Of my patients whom I
have treated for chronic liver, kidney
and stomach troubles have met me
after taking Cooper's remedies, and
have stated positively that he has &C.
complished wonderful results for them.
notice particularly in cases Of stofn-
ach trouble that the man has relieved
several cases that were Of years stand
Ing and proved very obstinate in treat
ment."
II am the last man on earth ito
stand in the way Of anything that may
prove for the public good simply
thru professional prejudice. and I am
inclined to give Cooper and his prepar-
ations credit as deserving to some ex-
tent the popular demonstration that
has been accorded them In this city"
Another well known physician who
was seen, took the opposite view of
the 'Cooper-mania," as he called 1t,
which now has this city In its grip.
He said: II can only lken the pres
emit state OF affairs to a certain kind OF
hallucination For want of better
name might call it Cooper-mania-'
The people Of st. Louis seem to be
Arm In the belief that this man Cooper
has. health corked up In bottle"
Some Of them Imagine that he has
completely cured them of various ills
Judging from their statements. It is
beyond me to, say why the city has
gone crazy over the man. It may be
safely put down, I think, to one OF
the passing fads that so often attack
the American public
Sooner or later the people are
bound to regain their senses, and will
then realize that q reputable physician
lie the one to whom their health had
best be entrusted"
& In the meantime Cooper meets sew
eral thousand people daily, and only
smiles when statements Of the above
character are quoted to him. His char
stable work still continues to be very
extensive.
