An article from the Nashville, Tenn.

er's visit to that city, throws some
light on the remarkable success Of the
young mans theories and medicines
In various cities visited by him during
the past year. The article is as fol.

In view of the enormous sale of
Coopers preparations now going on in
this city and the intense interest
which Mr.. Cooper has stirred up since
his arrival, a representative of the
Banner spent Thursday afternoon at
the young mans headquarters, watch
ing the swarm of humanity come and

During the afternoon the reporter
interviewed many of the callers and
obtained statements from all who
cared to give them as to their expe-
rienee with Cooper and his prepara-
lions.
The following are selected from
those statements as being typical of
the general expression of the people
seen:
