sion With Many People.
Cooper Gives Interview and Says
He Believes In Plain Talk.
Tells Why Many Cases of Deaf
ness Are Incurable.
THREE MINUTES ENOUGH
To Demonstrate Whether Per.
son Can Be Helped.

L. 7. Cooper was seen for a few mo-
ments Thursday at his headquarters,
Geo. Stansfield's drug store, 632 Kansas
avenue. and asked to give an explana-
ton of his three minute removals of
deafness.
Mr.. Cooper is making this store his
headquarters during his stay in Topeka,
while introducing the preparations that
have brought him his present fortune.
In reply to three minute removals of
deafness he said:
I'm the past I have done this work
in public, in different theaters through
out the country I did this when my
preparations and myself were apparent
ly unknown, before many thousands of
people nightly. have been forced to
discontinue these public demonstrations
for the following reasons: 1 do not
care to hold out false hopes to the many
hundreds of people who are incurably
deaf.
II found that after a week of these
public demonstrations in a city, the re-
port would go throughout the entire
state that could positively make any
deaf person hear again. L have had
people, deaf from childhood, travelh hum
dreds of miles to see me, feeling conf
dent that I could surely relieve them of
their affliction, only to have their hopes
dashed to the ground when they ar
rived.
"The fact is, that large percentage
OF Q6dIu0SS Is CduSeu ny CeitdIilie1i II oo-
BILE In cases of this sort 1 have pre-
paration that will act very rapidly and
give instant relief If the drum of the
ear has not been affected, and 1 can
positively remove catarrhal deafness In
a very short time.
But there are so many cases of deaf
ness caused by other troubles, hopeless
" incurab1e. that I do not care to lead
these people to believe that my pre-
paration will make them hear again.
.sThe preparation to which owe my
success is for the removal of stomach
troubles and the many ills that follow
in the wake of disorders of the stomach.
This is the preparation that have
come here to introduce. 1t will help
| thousands of sick people in the city
| of Topeka before I leave and will make
me many friends, as there is no one
| more grateful than an Individual VINO
| has been in poor health and suddenly
| finds relief.
| by this time next week I will have
many people calling to thank me foi
| what this preparation has done fol
/ them"

LET THE PEOPLE SAY.
Mayor Green Says Electric Light Pro-
position Will Be Submitted.

The special election to vote bonds for
improving the electric light plant and
charging it should offer voters a
choice of either a bond issue of $50, 900
or wrecking the city plant and giving
the Edison company a contract at a
specified price per lamp, is the opinion
advanced by Mayor William Green.
81 think it would be a good idea to
let the people express their desires eth
er for a contract or bonds-to give them
a chance to state their preference
whether for continuing the city plant
or let the Edison company do the light
ing for a certain stated sum-" said the
mayor.
