Followers of Cooper and His Novel Ideas Give Reason for Their Belief in Him.

With theory that human health is fdependent on the stomach and with 8 medicine which he says proves this theory, l.. T. Cooper, comparatively young man, has built up an immense following during the past year. Cooper has visited most of the lead ing cities of the country, and in each city has aroused storm Of discussion about his beliefs and his medicines. Wherever he has gone, people have called upon him by tens Of thousands, and his preparation has sold in im- mense quantities.
 The sale of this medicine has now spread over the entire country. and Is growing enormously each day. In view of this, the following statements from two of the great number of followers which he now has, arc Of general in- terest.
 Mrs. Agnes Viggenhouser, of 9i2 St. Louis Avenue, Chicago, hes the follow. Ing to say on the subject of the Cooper preparations: For more than ten years was broken down in health. I could not sleep and I was very ner. vous. Gradually began to lose my memory, until I could not remember things from one day to another. l had severe pains and cramps in my body, and I would at times see dark spots any work whatever, as my strength was failing. l had no appetite, nor could take any medicine.

JEFF WANTS TO BE
GOVERNOR AGAIN

Little Rock, June S.-A close politi-
cal friend of Senator jeff Davis, who
was member of the last two sessions
of the Arkansas legislature and who
always voted for policies advocated
by Davis, is authority for the state
ment that the senator will this summer
make canvass of the counties whose
delegates in the late state convention
voted against him for delegate-at-large
and endeavor to secure protests from
the Democracy of those localities
against the action of the delegates
and the state convention in turning
him down.
1t is said that Senator Davis is also
seriously considering the ACCESSIBILITY
of running against Gov. Donaghey
for second term, but before definite
~ making up his mind viii wait until
after the legislature disposes of the
state capitol building bill, which the
Democratic state platform placed en-
tirely in the hands of Mr.. Donaghey.

AN OLD TERRAPIN

Twenty-seven years ago r. NJ. An
derson, arrived in this county from
Tennessee and hired to the late J. H.
Russell to make crop. One day he
found terrapin, upon the back of
which he cut his initials and turned it
loose. Nothing more was thought Of
the incident until one day last week
when Nix Grice, who now owns the
Russell farm, found a terrapin with
r. NJ. A. cut upon its shell, and
upon speaking of it to K. w. Rector
the incident of twenty-seven years ago
was distinctly remembered by the
latter.
The terrapin appeared to be in first
class condition, with bright prospects
for long life. Melbourne Times.

Fifty years ago there was some ex-
cuse for bad roads, for our country
was poor, but there is no excuse now.
A good road is always to be desired,
and is a source of comfort and con-
yenience TO every traveller. Good
roads attract population, as we'll as
good schools and churches. Good
roads improve the value of property
SO that it is said farm lying five
miles from market connected by bad
road, is of less value than an equally
good farm connected by good road.
A larger load can be drawn by one
horse over a good road than by two
over a bad one. Good roads encour.
age the greater exchange of products
and commodities between one section
and another and directly or indirectly
benefit every citizen in the community

CHURCH ON BUSINESS PLAN

Churches are more and more being
conducted on business principles.
1t is being recognized that the hap
hazard method is not the most desir-
able, and that there should be order
and decorum in the business as we'll as
the spiritual affairs of the church, if
it would prosper.
A Little Rock church which is pre-
pairing to complete a building already
started has discarded the time-honored
system of begging, or soliciting con-
tributions to carry on the work, and
will issue bonds which will be taken
| by its members.
/ Unfortunately congregations do no
contain many millionaires who would
be able to drop enough in the Sunday
school contribution box to build the
church, and it is often a genuine bur-
den> upon those who are dependent
upon salaries to bear this heavy ex-
| pense.
! The payment of church pledge,
which should be considered as sacred
as any obligation, often entails sacri-
fee that is most difficult at the time.
While it would not be feasible or de-
sirable to abandon the passing of the
contribution basket, the sooner the
church gets upon a business basis the
sooner will it be in a position to ac-
complish its maximum good. -Arkan-
sas Democrat.
