WAR DECLARED
ON PARASITES
INVISIBLE ENEMIES SWALLOWED
IN UNCOOkED FOOD ARE
ROUTED by COOPER.

NEW YORK, April 15.--Probably
the most unusual feature OF the ex-
element that has been created by L.
T. Cooper's visit TO this city Is the
removal of parasites or tapeworms by
his preparations.
During the early part OF Cooper's
stay In New York, individuals who
were taking his New Discovery" as
II is called, brought, either to himself
or TO physicians, throughout the city
immense parasites that had left the
system after using the medicine.
Many OF these people were fright
ened, and cases OF this sort became
SO numerous that Cooper finally made
the following statement for publica-
ton:
He said: I'm every city visit
these things are brought to me within
a few days after my medicine is sold
in the city. They are what is known
as the tapeworm, and grow 10 enorm-
Gus size.
Few, indeed, realize how prevalent
these creatures are. think have
been the first to demonstrate what q
large factor they are in the poor
health OF this generation. | believe
that fully one-half of the chronic
stomach trouble that Is SO universal
is caused by these parasites.
individuals may have them for
years and not be aware OF the reason
for continued ill-health, but attribute
it to many different diseases. when In
reality one of these creatures is rob-
bling them Of their vitality.
These parasites are taken into the
system In uncooked food or rare meat
in the form OF an egg, which matches
almost Immediately. People suffering
from them experience a feeling OF
lassitude and are extremely nervous
The action OF the New Discovery
seems to be fatal TO these great
worms, and In most cases few doses
of the medicine drives the creatures
from the system. | will have hun
dreds of them brought to me before
leave the city"
This grewsome prophecy has been
amply verified. for not only hundreds
but thousands of New York and Brook
Ign people have been relieved OF one
OF these fearful parasites since taking
Cooper's preparations. and the entire
city has been aroused by the fact.
Some OF these parasites are OF such
enormous size as TO startle the mag
nation. The statement OF Thomas
McNulty, a city employee. living at 21S
Thirty-ninth Street. South Brooklyn.
verifies this. His statement. among
others given to reporter. was as
follows:
II have no objection to talking about
this matter. Why should I? The facts
are so. and man who would not dis
cuss them Is suffering with false mod
esty, In my opinion. | believe every
one should know about these things.
I believe they are public menace,
and IL this man Cooper. or any one
else, relieves Il. am willing to say
so, and give credit where It Is due.
II have been a sick man for years.
My stomach was all wrong and I had
n gnawing, faint feeling which only a
little food OF some sort would relieve.
Then after | ate the food Il would not
agree with me. and | would bloat and
feel uncomfortable. 7 was tired all
the time, was nervous and depressed
and did not sleep well. felt as tired
in the morning as when I went TO bed.
I had dizzy spells. headaches, a coated
tongue; and have been thin and gen.
orally run down.
II went to Riker's. saw Cooper and
got some OF the New Discovery med.
iclne--not because thought II would
help me. for have tried everything,
but Just on a chance. Monday a tape
worm fully 80 feet long left my sys-
tenn. How n man could live with ouch
thing sapping his vitality for all
these years Is beyond me to saw. Now
know why have been half dead SO
long. will tell any one In the city
OF New York these facts who wants
20 know about them"
This story OF Mr.. McNulty is a fair
example of the experience Of an as
toflishing number OF New York poo
pie. and Cooper's preparations are
selling here In enormous quantities.
II is now estimated that nc has sold
one hundred thousand bottles 20 date
in this city alone. and ths- saie IL ftili
increasing.
