Most People Do Not Know
Cause of Their Sick

Does human health depend on one
organ alone? This question is becom-
ing widely discussed since L. T.
Cooper first advanced his theory that
the stomach ie.the true seat of life
and all health dependent upon it.
Mr.. Cooper who has met with re-
markable success in the sale of his
new medicine. believes that the sto-
mach is responsible for most sickness.
and that this organ is weak in the
present generation While discussing
this theory recently. he said: Il am
asked time and again 10 tell why my
medicine has made such a record
wherever | have introduced it. Ny
answer always is, because it restores
the stomach to a normal condition.
No one will deny that today there are
more half-slck men and women than
ever before. Nothing critical seems to
be the matter with them. They are
just half-sick most of the time They
don't really know what is the matter

itself SO much about these questions

1T is not. however, all chaos. Ger

always be served first. that he cannot

But beyond this narrow region
there is whole wilderness stir to be

Hundred Others Debated.
.'These and hundred similar conun

more than monarchical fervor. The
mere fact that they can be propounded
shows that the American capital is
still in the embryonic stage of social
development. But the Intensity of emo

also that Washington when it finally
evolves protocol will set an inordi-
nate value upon 1t. Indeed, wherever a
point in the code is definitely estab-

comical tenacity. Etiquette. for in.

by post, hopelessly TO shame.

OAKLAND, Oct. 16.-Charged with
stealing from a Southern Pacific dining
car on which he was a waiter, Francis
E. Smith was brought here from Sacra-

Three other colored people of West
Oakland, where they conduct a board
ing house, in which, it is alleged they
used the stolen food, were also ar

Railroad detectives allege that there
has been systematic thieving from the
dining cars of the railroad for long
time, and a close watch has been kept
on the walters and cooks of the cars.
In the four persons arrested they

arrests.
The women and Ellis pleaded not
guilty in the police court this morn
ing. Smith will appear tomorrow.
