The following remarkable statement

The following remarkable statement
was recently made by l.. T. Cooper
1t concerns the preparation which has
been so widely discussed throughout
the country during the past year, and
has sold in such enormous quantities
in leading cities:
at is now a. well-known fact that
wherever l have introduced my New
Discovery medicine, hundreds of peo-
pie have brought internal parasites,
or tapeworms, to me. In many cases
these people did not know the nature
of the parasite, and we're consequently
extremely nervous until / explained
the matter to them. In some cities so
many have had this experience that
the public generally became alarmed.
81 take this opportunity of explain
ing what these creatures are, and what
I have learned about them in the past.
"Tapeworms are much more COM
mon than would be supposed. l ven.

chronic stomach trouble, or what is
known as rundown condition, is
caused by them. An individual may
suffer for years with one of these great
parasites and not be aware OF 1t.

HUMAN RACE AFFLICTED

Cooper Saws Internal Parasites Cause Much
Suffering Everywhere.

Contrary to general belief. the ap-
petite is not greatly increased-it only
becomes irregular. There is general
feeling of faintness, however and a
gnawing sensation in the pit OF the
stomach.
People afflicted with one Of these
parasites are nervous and depressed.
Their chief sensation is one OF IAN
guor, and they tire very easily. Lack
of energy and ambition affect the body,
and the mind becomes dull and slug
gish. The memory becomes not so
good, and the eyesight is generally

tricity ut some dinner tables when, re-
fusing. TO everybody's astonishment'
the ordinary dishes of each course, he
simply mashed potatoes on his plate
and poured vinegar over them, eating
them in silence and drinking only soda
water with them. The chronicler OF
this episode dryly adds that in the
evening Lord Byron went to n club
and there had an excellent supper
such as commonplace people would
enjoy The great bard's eccentricity
at dinner led to various minor ones

the Importance of guarding against in

Two test tubes nearly filed with
clear meat broth and then closed at
the top with a cotton plug are given to
him. with directions to wash his hands
with soap and water and clean his
na..j with a brush as thoroughly as
he can for some ten minutes. After
he thinks that his hands have become
altogether clean he removes the plug
IRON, one of the test tubes and barely
touches with a finger tip its contained
broth. after which he restores the cot
ton plug and puts both tubes away on
a shelf for twenty-four hours. What
he will see then is that the broth in
the test tube which received his sup
"nYrdly pure touch is turbid from the
presence of millions of microbes, while
