L T. Cooper's theory concerning the
human stomach, which he claims 10
prove with his new medicine, Is being
given more respect and comment every
day. .
Cooper claims that 80 per cent. OF
all III health 10 due to stomach trouble.
When interViewed about his theory re-
Gently, he said: stomach trouble Is
the great curse OF the goth century
so Tar a. the civilized races are con-
cerned. Practically all Of the chronic
I'll health Of this generation is caused
by abnormal stomachic conditions. In
earlier days, when the human race was
closer 10 nature, and men and women
worked ali day out Of doors, digging
their frugal existence from the soil,
the tired, droopy, half-sick people that
are now 20 common, did not exist.
"To be sure, there was sickness In
those days, but II was Of a Virulent
character, and only temporary. There
was none Of this half-sick condition
all the time with which 30 many are
afflicted nowadays.
Il know positively that every bit Of
this chronic Ill health is caused by
stomach trouble. The human stomach
in civilized people today is degenerate.
It lacks tone and strength. This weak
ness has gradually come through a
sedentary existence. l further know
that few people can be sick with the
digestive apparatus in perfect shape.
The sole reason for my success is DO.
