The following remarkable statement
was recently made by l.. 7. Cooper.
Ii concerns the preparation which has
been so widely discussed throughout
the country during the past year, and
has sold In such enormous quantities
in leading cities:
ut is now well-known fact that
wherever | have introduced my New
Discovery medicine, hundreds of poo
pie have brought internal parasites,
or tapeworms, to me- In many cases
these people did net lsnoW the nature
OF the parasite. end were consequently
extremely nervous until | explained
the matter to them. In some cities so
many have had this experience that
the public generally became alarmed.
Il take this opportunity Of explain
ing what these creatures are, and what
] have learned about them in the past.
"Tapeworms are much more COM
mon than would be supposed ! ven
ture to say that ten per cent. of all
chronic stomach trouble, or what is
known as rundown condition, Isl
caused by them, An individual may
suffer for years with one OF these great
parasites and not be aware Of it.

SATURDAYS Play.

The new play in which w. A.
Whitecar will be seen at the opera
house matinee and night, Saturday
Jan. 4, was written especially for him
and is entitled An Old Sweetheart Of
Mine" from James Whitcomb Rileys
famous poem. Texas ranch life is de-
picted with great skill and daring, the
characters are true inspirations, the
situation stirring and the love inter
est strong Entirely different from
his role of Jack Lumley in THE Mum
my and the Huming Bird" Dick Scott,
Mr.. Whitecar's new role, gives him
greater chance for those touches Of
power and pathos for which he is no.
ted, He is surrounded with charac.
ters fit to grapple with him in his fight
for life and honor

HUMAN RACE AFFLICTED
With QUEER DISEASE
Cooper Says Internal Parasites Cause Much
Suffering Everywhere

Contrary to general belief. the ap-
petite is not greatly increased--it only
becomes irregular. There is a general
feeling Of faintness, however and a
gnawing sensation in the pit of the
stomach.
People afflicted with one of these
parasites are nervous and depressed
Their chief sensation is one of Ian
guor, and they tire very easily Lack
Of energy and ambition affect the body,
and the mind becomes dull and slug.
gish The memory becomes not so
good, and the eyesight is generally
poorer.
THE New Discovery, in freeing stom-
ach and bowels OF all impurities, seems
to be fatal to these great worms, and
almost Immediately expels them from
the system. | wish to assure anyone
who has the experience just related
with my preparation, that there is no
cause for alarm in the matter, and
that it will as rule mean speedy
restoration to good health
The Cooper medicines are boon
to stomach sufferers. We sell them.
