THE SEAT OF
HUMAN ILLS
Sourse of Both Happiness and
Misery is Found in
the Stomach.

NEW YORK, May Nothing has
done 50 much to arouse the people
Of this city as the Immense number
OF people who have been relieved Of
various diseases by a preparation
known as Cooper's New Discovery.
This preparation Is being introduce
ed in New York for the FIRST time by
i. 7. Cooper. the young phllanthro-
pist, who has made and is making
fortune by It's sale. The medicine
Is prepared at Dayton, Ohio, and is
sold for various forms of stomach
trouble. II Is now being sold in
New York in such enormous quantl-
ties as to have caused general dis
cussion by physicians throughout the
city
Cooper claims that nine-tenths Of
all the ills of mankind emanate from
early during his visit that his medl-
cine would overcome ) all such
troubles as kidney. and liver COM
plants simply by restoring the stom-
ach to normal condition.
A reporter who spent an hour at
Ccoper's headquarters, secured state
ments from number Of people who
had tested this theory.
The following story was related by
Patrick Smith, living at 4sS Warren
street, Brooklyn: 81 have been sick
man for fifteen years: / had indiges-
tion. Food did not agree with me.
and / always had distressed feeling
after eating. Gas formed on my
stomach, and / was troubled with
heartburn and the usual symptoms
that accompany dyspepsia and indi-
gestlon. My stomach would bloat,
nd the abdominal area would expand
until ! was in agony.
Il did not know what was the mat
ter with me, and the doctors were as,
ignorant regarding my trouble as my
self. Nothing tried gave me the
desired relief. For the past year 1
have been unable to prform work of
any kind on account OF my sickness.
II was attracted by the accounts of
the work of Mr. Cooper and conclud-
ed to try his New Discovery medicine.
l experienced almost immediate re-
lief, and since taking several bottles
of this preparation / am feeling like
my old self again, and am now able
to work. A short time ago l was
able to eat scarcely anything, and
was Indifferent as to whether / par
took of food or NOT. Now 1 cannot.
wait for meal time. can eat any
thing l like and have no thought of
distress afterward. will always
have warm spot in my heart for
Mr.. Cooper and his remarkable medi-
cine, for it has made life worth the
living for me-"
These statements and others like
them so far toward accounting for
ICooper's immense success here and
elsewhere. SO far every claim made
by the young man seems to have been
verified.

The bitterness shown ~ Tom l..
johnson toward Judson Harmon's
nomination for governor Of Ohio in
dicates that there, will be no united
Democracy In that state this year,
while on the other hand the Foraker
following in Ohio Is not antagonistic
TO Taft as the Democrats would
have 1t.
Mayor Johnson has a large follow
ing and as the votes showed in the
state convention he carries nearly
half OF the Democratic party in his
vest pocket. Unless the Harmon
side succeeds in divesting that pocket
of Its contents, Democracy will be
hopeless in the campaign and the
election.

. If you want to be strong,
. vigorous and full of bounding
health, and to enjoy to the fur
; est extent the great natural
functions with which nature
endows all mankind then you
should follow the treatment
outlined by one of New York's
) most prominent and successful
practitioners; one who has
gruwh1 wealthy by treating the
! dissipated members of the Sc
lect and wealthy classes.
The treatment is said to have
acquired a wonderful reputation
. event in the hospitals and prl-
; vate sanitariums throughout
. the east, owing to its peculiar
. propensity to fortify the nerve
force and to generate health
. and consequent personal
. magnetism, so essential to the
happiness of every normal hui
!. man being. 1t Is claimed to be
. a blessing to those who are
. ent. nervous, and who have
. trembling in the limbs, dizzi-
ness and heart palpitation, cold
hands and feet, insomnia, fear
) without cause, timidlty in ven
turing and general inability TO
. act nationally as others do. Al
so of vast benefit to writer's,
professional men, office work
ers. and the victims of socle-
--ty's late hours and over indul-
gence in wines. liquors, etc. !.
; By preparing the treatment
at home secretly, no oneneed

) while the ingredients are much
used in filling various pre-
scriptions, so that even the pur-
chase OF them separately need
occasion no timidity. Some
druggists may not have all OF

obtain them from wholesale
firms who supply the trade

extracts.

MY 46TH BIRTHDAY.

Frederick H. Newell, chief engineer
of the Reclamation Service of the
United States, was born in Bradford
Pa, March 5, 1862, and was graduated
from the engineering department OF
the Massachusetts Institute of Tech
nology in 1885. Immediately after the
completion of his studies he took up
irrigation work in Colorado. He en-
tered the employment of the Irriga-
ton Survey as hydraulic engineer in
1888 and has continued in the service
of the government ever since When
the Reclamation Service was estab-
lished by act of congress of June II,
1902, Mr. Newell was appointed chief
engineer, and one year ago he sue
ceeded Charles D. Walcott as director
of the service Mr.. Newell has spent

practically the whole of his profess
sional career in retaining the arid
lands of the West. Under his guild
ance the reclamation service has
grown to be most important branch
of the government service. The work
of the service, which was of most in
significant proportions a few years
ago, now gives employment to ten
thousand persons and involves the eX-
penditure of approximately one mil
lion dollars month. Several great ir-
rigation projects have been completed
in the Western states and a number
of others are in progress of construc-
ton.
