CAPITAL SEAT
OF ALL TROUBLE.
NINE-TENTHs or HUMAN Ills EM-
ANATE FROM THE STOMACH.
is a cooPER THEORY.

NEW YORK. April 22.-Nothing
has done SO much TO arouse the peo-
lie OF this city as the immense mum.
Der OF people who have been relieved
OF various diseases by preparation
known as Cooper's New Discovery
This preparation is being introduced
In New York for the first time by L..
7. Cooper. the young philanthropist,
who has made end Is making a for
tune by its sale. The medicine Is pre-
pared at Dayton. Ohio, and Is sold for
various forms OF stomach trouble, IL
is now being sold in New York In such
enormous quantities as to have caused
a general discussion by physicians
throughout the city.
Cooper claims that nine-tenths OF all
the Ills OF mankind emanate from a
disordered stomach. and stated early
during his visit that his medicine
would overcome all such troubles as
kidney and liver complaints simply
by restoring the stomach to normal
condition.
A reporter who spent an hour at
Coopers headquarters, secured state
ments from a number OF people who
had tested this theory.
The following story was related by
Patrick Smith. living at 43S Warren
street. Brooklyn: II have been sick
man for fifteen years; / had indiges-
ton. Food did not agree with me. and
always had a distressed feeling after
eating. Gas formed on my stomach.
and | was troubled with heartburn
and the usual symptoms that accom-
pany dyspepsia and indigestion. My
stomach would bloat. and the abdom-
inal area would expand until was
III 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 l tried gave me the
desired relief. For the past year
have been unable to perform work of
any kind on account OF my sickness.
Il was attracted by the accounts OF
the work of Mr.. Cooper, and concluded
to try his New Discovery medicine.
experienced almost immediate relief.
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 | was able
to eat scarcely anything, and was in
different as to whether I partook OF
food or not Now cannot wait for
meal time. ] can eat anything ! like
and have no thought OF distress after
ward. l will always have warm spot
in my heart for Mr.. Cooper and his
remarkable medicine, for it has made
life worth the living for me-"
These statements and others like
them go far toward accounting for
Cooper's immense success here and
elsewhere. So far every claim made
by the young man seems to have been
verified.
