L. T. Cooper's theory concerning the
human stomach. which he claims to
prove, with his new medicine, is being
given more respect and comment
every day.
Cooper claims that 80 per cent OF
all iii health is due to stomach trouble.
When interviewed about his theory re-
Gently, he said; Stomach trouble is
the great cures OF the goth century
so far as the civilized races are con-
cerned. Practically all OF the chronic
III health OF this generation is caused
by abnormal stomachic conditions. In
earlier days, when the human race was
closer TO nature. and men and women
worked all day out OF doors, digging
their frugal existence from the soil,
the tired, droopy, half-sick people that
are now so COMMON. did not exist.
ITO be sure. there was sickness In
those days, but II was OF q virulent
character. and only temporary. There
