The Limit of Life.

The most eminent medical scientists

the generally accepted limitation OF
human life is many years below the

determines it's duration, seems to be
between so and 60; the proper care of

Cooper Explains Reason for Remarkable
Average of Boston Callers.

During L. +. Cooper's recent stay
In Boston. Ii is estimated that sixty
Eve thousand people talked with him
and purchased his medicine. This
is an average Of over two thousand a
day.
His success was So phenomenal as
to cause universal comment both by
the public and the press. There must
be a reason for this. Here is the
reason given in his own words by Mr..
Cooper when interviewed on the sub
ject He said:
The immense numbers of peopie
who are calling on me Aere in Boston
Is not unusual. have had the same
experience for the past two years
wherever / have gone. The reason is
q simple one. 1t Is because my madi-
cine puts the stomach In good condi-
tion. This does not sound unusual,
but it is in fact the key to health. The
stomach Is the very foundation Of
life. I attribute 80 per cent. Of
all sickness directly to the stomach.
Neither animals nor men can re-
main well with poor digestive appa-
ratus. Few can be sick with diges-
tion in perfect condition. As matter
of fact, most men and women today
are half-sick. It is because too much
food and too little exercise have grad
ually forced the stomach into a half
sick condition. My medicine gets the
stomach back where it was, and that
is all that is necessary"
Among Boston people who are
staunch believers in Mr.. Cooper's
theory, is Mr. Frank D. Brown, of 81

Through city, county, State. and

to accept such investigation work.
II the combination OF legal wise and
politically conspicuous, were not
their personal qualifications. In ma

This excessive investigation zeal
has grown TO such an extent, that its
magnitude can only be estimated bv
a calm sitting down and looking
over the various newspapers, and
note how in almost every depart-
ment OF municipality and State and
nation, there has grown up q duplica-
ton OF special Investigators, who To
great extent perform work that
fortunately belongs to officials reg
ularly elected and drawing pay to
perform the specific work, so gener-
ously given out to special committees.
The expense OF all this is enormous.
This, as does all expenses. falls upon
taxpayers. Ii the regular officials.

they elected? There is nothing new
to demand all this special investira-
ton, now so much carried on.
lt is fungus growth, developed by
degrees, from the desire of those in
power to help their own positions,
or AID friends. In our prosperous
conditions, taxpayers become indif-
ferent to the gradual mushroom
growth OF expenses, that takes their
money and leaves nothing as an
equivalent. This investigation is a
craze that calls for halt, for it isaa

Peanut Oil.
Norfolk Virginian-Pilot.

In a recent report to the Agricul-
turaf Department the American Con-
sui at Bordeaux, France, furnishes
some interesting facts and figures rel
ative to peanut-oil and Its maniac
ture in that country. Peanut or
arachide oil, as it is called, when we'll
clarified and fresh, is preferred. he
says, to the best olive oil for table
use in many parts of France, its sale
in Bordeaux exceeding that OF any
other oil and almost equalling that
of all Others combined. In addition
to being an excellent table oil, pala-
table, nutritious, healthful and cheap
er than olive oil. it is employed al
most exclusively in the manufacture
OF high class compound lard. As
showing the magnitude of the indus
try and the extent of the products
use, the report states that in Bor-
deaux alone the average annual
value OF the output of peanut or
arachide oil exceeds two million dol
lars, fifty thousand tons of peanuts
being used in its manufacture.
These peanuts are brought from the
French possessions in Africa, the pro-
cess of extraction being the, same
as making cotton seed oil. Further
more, there is not a particle of waste
in the manufacture. the residum be-
ing pressed into cakes which serve as
an excellent and nutritious food for
cattle.
This report is especially interesting
to the people Of this section and OF
the Eastern Carolinas, where peanut
growing is one OF the chief agricul-
tural pursuits. In fact. in this belt
and in Tennessee are grown more
peanuts than in all the rest of the
world combined, the animal value of
the crop ranging from eight to ten
millions OF dollars. Ii the CONVEX
sion OF the product into oil can be
made profitable elsewhere, certainly
there is room for development of the
industry in these States. That the
people of this country are not averse
to the use of such oil is shown by the
fact that Bordeaux has exported it
tothe United States to the value of
over one hundred and fifteen thous-
and dollars in the last five wears.
Whether or not it is manufactured
here at all We are unable to saw, but.
in any event, development of the in
dustry would seem to offer an excel
lent opening for Southern enterprise.
