PECULIAR PROPERTIES
OF NEW MEDICINE
Cooper Preparation Attracts Widespread
Attention by Expelling Internal
Parasites.

The interest created in leading
cities during tie past year by young
Mr.. Cooper with his new prevaration.
is largely accounted for by a peculiar
quality possessed by this medicine,
which he calls his New Discovery.
Mr.. Cooper believes that Internal
parasites, or tapeworms. are RESPONSE
Bile for much I'D health, and II is an
undoubted fact that his medicine has
expelled immense numbers OF these
creatures in various cities visited by
MIN. The young man also believes
that stomach trouble is the main
cause OF all IN heath. He claims
that few can have poor health with .
good digestion. He further claims
that his New Discovery medicine dc s
nothing but tone up the stomach. yet
It not only expels the parasites but
relieves many other ailments not as a
rule associated with stomach trouble.

Doctors wonderful Discovery.

What gives promise OF being one
of the most beneficial discoveries in
the history Of the world was modest
ly suggested by Dr. Albert Calmette
director of the Pasteur Institute al
Lille, France, in the course of an ad-
dress before the International Confer
ence on Tuberculosis in Vienna. He
reported that he had been able to
render all the animals used for ex-
pertinent at the institute-cattle
sheep and guinea pigs immune
against the most formidable doses OF
tuberculosis virus. That is to say,
the immunization has been complete
for the eleven months during which
they have been under observation.
II it be proved that 1t is permanent
or that it lasts even for a period OF
only few years, and that similar
treatment may be applied to human
beings, the importance Of this little
heralded discovery can hardly be
observation-disclosures Weekly.

II is the best show Mr.. Field has ever
given. and although the performance
Is long. there Is sufficient variety and
merit TO prevent monotony.
Excellent taste and a large sum OF
money were expended In producing
the sumptuous and beautiful first
part. His vocalists. dancers, come
|dians and orchestra excel his former
aggregations. Harry Clark. the end
man and monologist, leads the COM
edians, and proved as refreshing as
ever. DOC" Qulgley has added the
character Of ''musiyal mokeb and
talking end man to his accomplish
ments. while he dances with his old
time abandon and appears in the
sketch with Mr.. Field 10 better ad-
vantage than any other partner Mr.
Field has had. Harry Van Fossen IS
an agile comedian, with a gift OF
story telling and legs as humorous in
their way as the wierd UNDERMINING

Poland was the only man In the neigh

that could be CLEANED from him was that
he was putting a staple in the door of
the powder house, a new lot of explosive
having Just been placed there, when the
rapid events transpired He carried 4
hot staple fresh from the forge and in
serted it in the door. The metal was as
hot that it set fire to the door, and at
this point il where Polands memory Of
occurrences leaves of. 1T ii supposed
that loose grains of powder, becoming
ignited, transmitted the flame to the
kegs.
At any rate, the kegs exploded In one
grand broadside as il 'twere the Japs de-

the noise likened it to a prolonged roll
Of thunder or the lighter sound of an inn
