Among more recent converts to Mr..

living at 6 Tappan Street, Everett,

the subject:

Does human health depend on one
organ alone? This question is beccm'
ing widely discussed since l.. L.
Cooper first advanced his theory that
the stomach Ii the true seat OF LIE
and all health dependent upon 1t.
sMr. Cooper, who has met with re
1narkable success In the sale Of his
new medicine, believes that the stom'
ach Is responsible for most sickness
and that this organ b weak in the
present generation. While discussing
this theory recently, he said: Il am
asked time and again to tell why my
medicine has made such record
wherever I have introduced It. My
answer always Is, because 1t restores
the stomach to a normal condition.
No one will deny that today there are
more half-sick men and women thar
ever before. Nothing critical seems t.
be the matter with them. They arr
dust half-sick most Of the time. They
don't know really what Is the matter
with them. ! have talked with thou

few knew indeed what their trouble
was. One said nervousness, another

Summer Boarder's Professional


The tumult and the chatter cease.
The spoony lovers all depart;
In dance hall reigns heavenly peace,
Sweet stiffness lulls both head and
heart;
The landlord charges down doth set,
Lest he forget-lest he forget
The shrieks and giggles of the sands
Upon the winds have passed away:
The goo-gooing and holding hands
Are over, with the bath, today
Ger whispered nothings We'll not
fret
Wen Just forget-ah, Just forget
Another morn will open soon;
Again vain errands we will run,
Suit cases tote at humid noon.
Play drear croquet and call it fun
For desert islands yearn. And yet
Seem to forget-seem to forget,
