Only Necessary to Treat the
Stomach, says Cooper.

The new theory advanced by L. T. Cooper
relative to the human stomach has attracted
such widespread attention that the public in
cities visited by the young man has been
joined by many physicians in a discussion of
his belief and medicines.
Mr.. Cooper says that human health is de.
pendent almost entirely upon the stomach.
He says that no disease can be conquered
without first alternating all stomach disorders.
He further says that most men and women of
this generation are half-sick, owing to degen-
crate stomachs. And lastly, he claims that his
New Discovery medicine will rejuvenate the
human stomach in 90 days.
Cooper has been travelling from one city to
another, conducting in each what he calls a
campaign of education. For the past year he
has met the public in the larger cities of the
country, and his success has been phenomenal.
Thousands of people have hocked to his head
quarters wherever he has gone, and the sale
Of his medicine has gone beyond anything of
the kind ever before witnessed.
Possibly the most interesting feature of the
attention this young man has attracted is
what his army of followers, whom he has con-
verted to his beliefs through his medicines,
have to say on the subject. The following
! statements are from two we'll known residents
of Chicago and Boston, respectively, and the
enthusiasm of these is characteristic of Cooper's
admirers generally.
Mrs. III. B. Mack, of 32oI State street,
Chicago says 81 have been suffering for IL
years from a combination of stomach troubles,
catarrh and constipation. l had a gnawing
pain in the pit of my stomach, a sort of a dull
pain that could not quite understand. Then

done for me-"
Mr.. Edwin F. Morse, of 20 Oakley street,
Dorchester, a suburb of Boston, says "For
three years l had not a we'll day. My stom-
ach was in frightful shape; the mere thought
of food would nauseate me, and l really had a
horror of anything to eat. All solid food
would cause. me extreme indigestion, bloating
and gas on my stomach, and nothing tasted
right. Some time ago | got some of this

them to be all he claims.

COMPOUND

is another preparation for stomach
troubles. 1t is impossible for one remedy
to cure all forms of dyspepsia, for the
reason that some people have too much
acid in their stomachs, while others do
not have enough. 1t is a physical i'm
possibility for the same remedy to re-
lieve both of those conditions.
Barney's Compound is especially rec
commended where there is an excess of
acid, and where catarrhal conditions
exist. For that soreness of the stomach
it never fails to relieve.

abe ut seventy young people will make
the rounds under the direction of Rev.
Mr.. Bartlett.
This evening the first session will
be held at Bethlehem church when w.

BESLEGE MAYOR TO
VETO ORDINANCE
ENDANGERs ENTIRE
HILL DISTRICT
Underwriters Urge That Stationary
Stand Pipes Be Maintained
Along Second, Third and
Fourth Streets

Mayor A. C. Harper, it is believed,
will veto the ordinance fought singly
by Councilman Wren, which exempts
the district between First and Temple,
Hill and Bunker Hill avenue from the
fire limits
Business men in Los Angeles are
becoming thoroughly aroused over the
pernicious effect this legislation will
have in increasing the hazard and IN
causing a raise in rates, and the mayor
will probably veto the measure.
Some insurance men have told the
mayor that it would be cheaper for
the city to NY this entire area If neces-
sary to prevent such a setback in mu-
ricipal progress as permitting repairs
to be, made on old frame buildings in
the hill district.
Chief Francis Porter of the inspection
bureau has suggested that If no more
engine companies are stationed in the
business center standpipes could be run
up Second, Third and Fourth streets
from Hill street west to the top of the
ridge.
BY means of the standpipes if a fire
breaks out on the hill engine crews at
Hill street can pump the water up hill
through the six-inch mains without be-
ing required to urge their teams to go
up the hard incline.
The company stationed on the hill
top could attach its hose at the other
end of the pipes and get busy till re-
Inducements arrived. With six inches
diameter two companies could be
coupled at the lower end and furnish
powerful stream.
The finance committee of the council
will probably appropriate the needed
$4,000 on Saturday.

EIGHT SCHOOLS
FOUND FIRE-SAFE
CITY OFFICIALS MAKING ROUNDS
OF BUILDINGS
In All Future Structures Staircases
VIII Receive Special Attention
by Architects and
Builders

Building Inspector J. ]. Backus and
Fire Chief Walter Lips, in obedience
to the instructions of the city council
yesterday visited eight of the Los An
geles public schools to note if any dam
ger lurked there for the pupils.
Every school of the seventy-eight
here will be visited, but by Monday,
when a report is wanted by the coun-
cilmen at their. meeting, only partial
statement can be given for lack of
time.
Both officials said they found no
alarming conditions in any of the eight
schools they visited, though they be-
lieved that in all cases staircase space
was sacrificed to a more or less eX-
tent to give room space, fact that
they deplored.
For the high school they will recon-
mend an additional fire escape on the
north wing.
Both experts say they prefer wide,
roomy staircases leading to wide doors,
rather than numerous fire escapes, as
the children can be discharged more
rapidly by the stairs, to the use OF
which they are more accustomed. The
danger from panic and it's results Is
always greater than from flames. In
all future schools erected the staircases
will get special attention.
Conditions at the University, Custer
street and Twenty-eighth street schools
were found to be up to the average.
At all the schools chats were had
with the principals and janitors to ad-
wise that no rubbish or combustible
materials be permitted to accumulate
on the school premises and the fire
drills were noted.
The lessons of the Ohio horror were
found to have been seriously taken to
heart by the teaching corps at the
schools

Injury to Her Pos
sessions

half of his share of the community
property was given her by the court,
and a wear later she purchased the re-
mainder.
When the property was first pur-
chased by Weals, it is claimed, his
brother James advanced $50 for that
purpose, and now lays claim to share

ANTHONY SCHWAMM SAYS
PETITIONERS ARE IGNORED
Tells Fire Board That Councilman
WaIaoe's Constituents Are Un-
able to Get Alarm Boxes
They Need

Commissio, er Anthony Schwamm at
Yesterdays session of the board OF
fire commissioners said Fifth ward
residents had complained that they re-
ceived but little attention in regard to
having new fire alarm boxes Installed
in their neighborhoods.
The criticism was aimed at Council
man A. j. Wallace, who was presumed
to take up these petitions with the city
council. The fire commissioners sald
the necessary action should be initiated
there.
Councilman Wallace has had several
conferences with gas company officials
to find out why new arc lamps ordered
for the Fifth ward are not installed,
but the petitions for alarm boxes, 1t is
said, have not been reached in the
councils regular order of business,
hence the delay,
