SALES ARE ENORMOUS
Cooper Preparations Leading Topic in Gin
cinnati--Callers at Young Mans Head
qnarters Interviewed.

CINCINNATI, o., Jan. 30 The most
interesting feature of the enormous
sale OF the ofStooper preparations, now
going on in this city. is what tho medi-
cines are actually accomplishing
among the people of Cincinnati
AT the commencement of his visit
here Mr.. Cooper prophesied that dur
ing the later part of his stay he would
receive hundreds of callers daily who
come simply to thank him for what
the preparations had done. He also
stated that stomach trouble is the
foundation for IL great many diseases
and that his New Discovery, as it is
called, would prove very effective in
all cases of rheumatism simply by
getting the stomach in working order.
That this prophecy has been fulfilled
cannot be doubted after a half hour
spent at the young mans headquarters
listening to what his callers have to
say.
A reporter, who watched to ascer-
tain, if possible, some light on the
reasons for the immensity of Cooper's
success interviewed about twenty of
his callers yesterday afternoon. The
statements made by those seen indi-
cate that physicians who claim that
Cooper is merely passing fad, have
not looked into the facts.
Some of these statements were as
follows: Miss Sallie Middleton living
at 1857 Central Ave, upon being ques-
toned, said:
II have been troubled with general
weakness, dizziness, headache, sleep
lessness and stomach disorders for a
number of years, suffering all the time
with my kidneys and back. | had tried
number of medicines and visited sew
eral doctors but none helped me.
heard on all sides of these Cooper
remedies and decided to try them.
Any one who says that they are not
wonderful medicines does not know
what they are talking about After
used the first bottle, | noticed de
cded improvement. Ihave taken three
bottles of the New Discovery sand

Makes Fun for NeigIlbors.

Virgil +. Kline, lawyer of Cleveland,
in an address upon Ambition" said:
Ambition is an excellent thing.
Without it the world would not
progress. But there are worthy and
unworthy ambitions, silly and wise
ones.
Then there are the peculiar, the dis
tinctive ambitions. such as we see in
childhood.
THUS | once knew a little boy who
had an ambition to be letter carrier,
and, finding in n cedar chest in the
attic great bundle of love letters that
his mother had been preserving since
the days Of her courtship, he packed
them in leather school satchel and
distributed them from house to house
throughout the neighborhood

I have been for a long time. | have
come here to thank Mr.. Cooper for
what he has done for me-"
The statement of Mrs. NJ. E. Emer-
son living on $50 West Court street,
was as follows:

BILE and constipation for year or SO

spells, sour stomach, fermentation,

bed. had a dull pain in the lower
part of my back. have taken almost
one bottle of the New Discovery and
| am so wonderfully improved that |
have come down here to thank Mr..
Cooper in person and obtain more of
the medicine"
Another statement was made by Mr.
E. Luken living at 1905 Gest street,
who said: 81 have been sufferer with
rheumatism for several years l could
not walk or stand on my feet when
Mr.. Cooper came to Cincinnati.
Nothing helped me in any way and l
despaired of finding relief. 1 was in
general rundown condition, also, and
had some stomach trouble fearing
of his wonderful work my father con-
suited him regarding my case and pur-
chasd bottle of his New Discovery,
After had finished that one bottle l
was able to walk down town and see
him myself"
81 have continued to take this Won
derful medicine and / am now with
out a sign of rheumatism. My gen.
eral health is also greatly improved

| would not have believed that there
was medicine on earth that would
do what this has done for me. I am
SO much happier that am very crate
full to the man that has made it pos.
sible for me to regain my health. He
has the most wonderful medicine that
know anything about"
| Other statements taken from those
who had previously used the medi-
cines seem to prove that Cooper's
success throughout the country is gen
uine.

UNIONS CONSOLIDATE

In accordance with arrangements
made by the International Carpen-
ters and Joiners the local millwork-
ers' union No. 1860 will consolidate
with carpenters union No. 98. The
union voted favorably on the mat

The members of both unions were
accorded the privilege of working
inside mills or on outdoor construc-

WANT 10000
CLUB TO GET
IN GAME

The proposition to bring James
j. Jeffries here to fight big Bill
Squires, the Australian champion,
Is still being talked of. The latest
scheme is to submit the plan to the
100000 club and have that organi-
cation promote it. The men back
of the project are said to be willing
to put up a portion of the suggested
$4,000 purse. They are confident
the balance may be easily raised.
Such a scheme would do more to
get Spokane before the public than
anything else, it Is argued, barring
the present rate fight. 1t is a ques-
ton If Spokane could find accom-
modations for the people who would
come here to see the MILL
Would Squires have a chance In
a battle with James J. Jeffrles?
, That Is a question that is being
asked on all sides and it Is always
followed, in this country, with the
query, "Who is this guy Squires,
anyway
.Squires is a pugilistic accident.
Up to five years ago he was a
brawny miner in the coal fields Of
his country.
! One night travelling show stop
ped at Walls End, near Newcastle,
New South Wales. 1t was headed
by an alleged pugilistic wonder,
who challenged any man in the
house to put on the gloves with
him. None were willing, and the
lighters eye dropped upon the big
miner
"Who is that big dub over there?
Is he afraid to go a little?'
That's Miner Bill Squires. He
Is no fighter" came the reply.
Then the pug commenced to
taunt the big fellow.
/. Squires got angry and decided to
put on the gloves, although he did
not know the first rudiments of the
game. ~EiAiM
1t was curtains for the profess
sional inside of two rounds.
Squires was hailed as a wonder.
They coaxed him into the game.
In five years he has met and de-
feated Australians best. none of
them lasting more than seven
rounds.
The Australians do not claim
Squires to be a man of science.
They do declare that he is very
active man in the ring and posses
sor of a terrific punch. He is %
years old and strips at $50 pounds.
