days this awful thing passed from my system. 1 feel much better all ready, and l want to say right here that l thank MT. Cooper a hundred times for what his medicine has done for me. 1 would not take $5,000 and have that thing back in my sys- tenn again."
 A story with touch !. of pathos was related by a gentleman convers- ant with the facts that illustrates the kindly nature of the philanthrop- ist, and explains to a great degree his wonderful hold upon the people.
 A delicate woman whose face bore traces of care and suffering, and whose frail body was distorted with 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, resigned ly, but sadly disappointed.
 :. To her it was another stroke of misfortune, and she turned her weary steps toward the little home, where sick husband was awaiting her return. But her disappointment was of short duration, for Cooper was just then coming up the street. Noting the careworn look and halt ing step, he came quickly forward and assisted her carefully over the crossing. By a fews. kindly, we'll directed questions, he learned that she had been to call upon Mir. Cooper to secure medicine for her sick hus- band, who had been ill for a long time, unable to provide even the barest necessities for his little fam fly.
 The poor woman was greatly as- tonished when she found that sh was talking to MT. Cooper himself. He assisted her back to the drug store, supplied her not only with the required medicines, but also with a generous handful of silver, and sent her home with a light heart and smiles shining through tears. That night big basket of groceries was left at the little home, and it was not hard to guess who was the donor. | Another feature of Cooper's visit to this city, and one that has attract ed great deal of attention, in the many cures of rheumatism that have been effected by the use of his reme- dies. Among the number who made statements on this subject was Louise Herman, 645 North avenue, who said:
 'I have for years been a sufferer from rheumatism and kidney com plaint. At times l was unable to walk and my back was very weak. My limbs were very sore and swollen and 1 was in very nervous condi- tion. 1 could not sleep at night, always felt tired in the morning, and would often have severe head aches. My health had entirely broken down and l had begun to feel as if life was not worth living. 1 had tried different medicines, but all to no avail. Nothing seemed to help me and did not know what it was to have well or happy day.
 One evening l was read ng in the papers what great results Cooper's New Discovery and Quick Relief were accomplishing in Chicago and l made up my mlnd to give them a trial, and if they were what the papers said they were, why then l would surely receive some benefit.
 "So l purchased some of the med icine and after the first few days l noticed that my sleep was more restful and that the pain in my limbs was not so bad. l kept on using the medicine and after two weeks I had nearly recovered my health. can never say enough about these medicines, for l never expected to see a we'll day again, and here am enjoying life with my friends, and all due to the wonderful New Discovery.
 "I want to say that it is the greatest remedy in the world, for it has made me a well woman where all others failed"
