Cooper a hundred times for what his
medicine has done for me. Hwould
not take $4,000 and. have that thing
back In my system again."
A story with a touch Of pathoa was
related by a gentleman coriversant
with the; facts that illustrates the kind
ly nature of the philanthropist, and
explains to a great degree his wonder
full hold upon the people.
A delicate woman whose face bore
traces Of care and suffering, and whose
frail body was distorted by the ravages
of disease, called at the Public Drug
Store and asked for Mr.. Cooper, but he
was out and the little woman turned
away, resignedly, but sadly disap-
appointed.
To her 1t was another stroke OF mis-
fortune, and she turned her weary
steps toward the little home, where q
sick husband was awaiting her return.
But her disappointment was Of short
duration, for Cooper was Just then
coming up the street. Noting the care
worn look and halting step, he came
quickly forward and assisted her care
fully over the crossing. BY q few
kindly, well-directed questions, he
learned that she had been to call upon
Mr., Cooper to secure medicine for her
SICK husband, who had been i'll for q
long time, unable to provide even the
parest. necessities for his little family.
The poor woman ras greatly aston
4shed when she ivund that she, was
talking to Mr.. Cooper himself. He
assisted her back to the drug store, sup
piled her not only with the required
medicines, but also with q generous
handful Of silver, and sent her home
with a light heart sud smiles shining
through tears. Th'. night q big bas-
ket of groceries was left at the little
home, and it was not hard to guess
who wss the donor.
Another feature of Cooper's visit to
this city, and n that has attracted q
great deal Of attention, is the many
cures Of rheumatism that have been
effected by the use of his remedies.
Among the number Win made state-
ments ON this subject waS Louise Her
man, 945 North avenue, who said:
II have for years been q sufferer
from rheumatism and kidney COM
plant. AT times I was unable to walk.
and my back was very weak. My
limbs were very sore and swollen and
I was In q very nervous condition. I
could not sleep at night, always felt
firod In Tho rornfn~ ooJ uo,S c1-
have severe headaches. My health
had entirely broken down and T. had
begun to feel as If life was not worth
living. I bad tried difareIt medi-
.cines, but all to no avail Nothing
seemed to help me and I did not know
what 1t was to have a well or happy
day:
Zone evening I was reading in the
papers what great results Cooper's New
Discovery and Quick Relief were &C
complishingin Chicagoa and I made up
my mind to give them q trial, and If
they were what the papers said they
were, why then I would surely receive
some benefit.
$50 I purchased some Of the medi-
cine and after the first few days I no
ticed that my sleep was more restful
and that the pain In my limbs was not
80 bad. I kept on using the medicine
and after two weeks I had nearly re-
covered my health. I can EeYer say
enough about these medicines, for r
never expected to see a well day again,
and here I am enjoying life with my
friends, and all due to the wonderful
New Discovery.
II want to say that it is the greatest
remedy In the world, for it has made
me q well woman where all others
failed"
