Chicago pecial-The people of this city
are greatly excited over number of remarkable
cures which have been effected by wealthy
philanthropist by the name of Cooper.
His headquarters at The Public Drug Store is
besieged with crowds OF men ana women eaees
to be cured of their ills
Cooper is quiet, gentiemanly person, WIN the
appearance of student, rather than business
man. He is apparently about thirty-one or two
wears of age, He first came into public notice
by his phiIanthropic work among the poor Inc
large fortune he possesses has made 1t possible
for him to distribute many wagon loads OF 1000
and clothing among those in INDECENT circum-
stances since his arrival in Chicago.
The first was known of Cooper'S power over
disease was when Mr.. John Stauber OF 1be1
Broadway, Cincinnati, Ohio, who was IN this city
on business declared that Cooper, the phllan-
rj,ronist was the same person who saved his lie
yast March, after he had been given up to Gle py
his physicians Mr.. Stauber stated last Mafch
the doctors told him he would not live until May.
as he was in A. terrible condition; every one sald
he had consumption; he had a nasty cough VIII
FREQUENT hemorrhages, dizzy spells, and was SO
weak that the least exertiOn OF excitement wouu
,,o,npletely PROSTATE him; there were severe
,,ajus IN the stomach and back, and his kidneys
were IN bad condition.
"After my physicians gave me up SAID MI.
Stauber. 'Mr Cooper heard of my case and cali
ed TO see me- He left peculiar medicine Wnlch
began taking and | Immediately began to I'M
prove. My cough stopped, my stomach no longer
distressed me, and my Kidneys were III perfect
condition. Isgained seventeen pounds IN seven
weeks, and today am as well as l ever was III
my life"
A few DAYS after this, Mr.. R. l.. Sidwell, jus.
tice of the peace living at 1922 Dearborn street,
reported that Cooper had cured him OF a severe
cast. of stomach trouble with few doses OF MS
peculiar medicine.
His trouble had been of long standing and he
had tried many different doctors and medicines
without relief. From the first dose OF Coopefs
medicine he began to improve ana is today III
apparently perfect health
This was followed by the still more remarkable
cure of Mr.. Thomas Webster, employed at the
Omaha Packing Company, and living at 54lo
South Morgan street. MI Webster had suffered
Tor wears with pain in his stomach dizziness,
palpltatIon of heart packache and all other
troubles, He came to Cooper's headquarters, ,and
DISPLAYED an enormous tapeworm, which he said
had passed from his system after he had taken a
few doses OF the Cooper medicine. Mt. Webster
said all his Sutferngs had left him as il by maggie
and he felt like a new being.
The report of these remarkable cures lie" Ike
wild fire, and The Public Drug store. Where
Cooper is making his headquarters, IS beSlegeo
by people suffering from all manner OF aliineutS
