to thank Mr.. Cooper in person and OBJ
tain more of the medicine
Another individual interviewed was
Mr.. }. H. Brooks, living at 537 Walnut
street. who had the following to say:
For the past eighteen months have
been q constant sufferer from catarrh
OF the head and stomach. My nasal
passages would become infamed and
sore. would have severe headaches.
which affected my eyes. and great
crusts OF matter would drop into tho
throat, causing an irritation OF the
bronchial passages. until the stomach
hnally became poisoned. When would
lay down at night q phlezm would
gather In my throat until it almost
choked me, aud would cause an an
noying cough. Half q bottle Of
Cooper's New Discovery gave me re-
lief, and when the first bottle was fin
ished I felt like a new man. I am
now completely cured and consider
Cooper's New Discovery the greatest
catarrh, blood and stomach remedy In
the world"
The Cooper preparations have been
wonderfully successful throughout the
United States. We consider them re-
markable medicines and would be-
pleased to explain the nature Of them.

entire CITY INTERESTED
IN YOUNG man
Ccoper's New Theory Attracts Widespread
Attention During Stay in Cincinnati

An adequate idea of the intense in.
terest which has been aroused by
young Mr.. Cooper during the past yea
with his theories and medicines is
given in the following article which
appeared in the Cincinnati Post while
Cooper was introducing his ideas to
the people of that city. The article
gays: The beginning of Mr.. Cooper's
second week in Cincinnati gives every
indication that he is to enjoy the same
astonishing success here as in other
cities.
"From the first day of his visit the
crowds that call to SEQ him have stead.
lily increased, until now it has reached
o point where several thousand talk
with him each day. The entire city
seems to have become interested in his
theory that the human stomach is
degenerate, and he already has an
army Of followers in Cincinnati who
seem positive that his claims are cor.
rect.
"A number Of Cincinnatlans were
interviewed at Cooper's headquarters
on Friday, and several interesting
statements. showing their intense faith
in Cooper's preparations, were secured,
The following are selected from these
statements and are characteristic of
them all: Mrs. II. e. Emerson of $50

WE WORK TOO HARD TO SING.
Nine. Gadski Tells Why America Has
Not More Great Singers.

Nine. Gadski, recently interviewed
at her hotel upon her arrival in De-
troit, expressed her opinion of the rea-
son America does not produce more
great singers
"Why hasn't America produced more
grand opera stars? Blame American
customs" she said. "Here in America
it's ever rush. turmoil, hurry and
worry and scurry.
"A young woman comes to me and
tells me she is going abroad to receive
a vocal education oh. I'm going to
work hard remark these young wo-
men. And that's just 1t. They work
hard, and you can't work hard and ed
ucate your voice properly. 1t takes
time, patience, care. but hurry never.
I studied for seven years under the
same teacher in Stettin.
Americans want everything too
quick. The report that they don't APP
preciate grand opera is wrong. how
ever. When Americans appreciate a
grand opera production they appreci-
ate it deeply. When they take 1t seri-
ously it is very serious"

the Jews and supposedly borrowed
from the latter. 1t was called the
feast of Demeter or the Eleusinian

of the cornfields, by whose especial
favor only good harvests might be
expected. The celebration continued

goddess were made. consisting Of obla-

cen inches square-the front and the
back. The former can be decorated
with three large conventional tulips
placed side by side and running to the

then glued to the cover. The deep
