L. #. Cooper's theory concerning tne
human stomach, which has been widely
discussed in Los Angeles and Vlclnlly,
since his recent visit in this city, Is
being given more respect and comment
every day. IT,
Cooper claims that large majority
of ali i'll health is due to stomach
trouble. When interviewed about MS
theory recently he said: stomach
trouble is the great curse of the 2Oth
century so far as the civilized races
are concerned. Practically all OF the
chronic i'll health of this generation is
caused by abnormal stomaehic condl-
tions. In earlier days, when the hu-
man race was closer to nature ana
mon and women worked all day out OF
doors, digging their frugal existence
from the soil, the tired, droopy, halI-
sick people that are now so common
did not exist.
ITO be sure, there was sickness IN
those days. but it was of Vlrulent
character and only temporary. There
was none of this half-sick condition all
the time with which so many are af-
flicted nowadays
at know positively that every bit OF
this chronic i'll health is caused by
stomach trouble. The human stomach
i'm civilized people today is degenerate
n lacks tone and strength. This weak
ness has gradually come through a
sedentary existence. | further know
that few people can be sick with the
digestive apparatus in perfect shape.
The sole reason for my success is be-
cause my New Discovery medicine
tones tha stomach up to required

Whereas, the regulations for

12, that 'one-half OF the gross receipts
except as otherwise specified for each
year, be transferred to the treasurer

Resolved. That 1t is the sense of
the Hawaiian Branch OF the American
National Red Cross, that such regula.
lions should be modified so that all Of

DIR. Wood made an excellent ad.
dress on the necessity for having the
Red Cross prepared for emergencies
and showed, In case of war or disaster,
what the field OF the organization
would be. He urged upon his hearers
the necessity for being prepared. and
knowing where medical or surgical ap.
pliances could be had In case of neces.
sity.
He also gave brief talk on first aid
to the injured. and impressed upon
his hearers the necessity for common
sense In emergency cases.
While he was explaining how n per.
son who has tainted should be treated,
one of his feminine listeners very &C
commodatingly tainted. and gave the
doctor chance to see whether or not
his remarks had borne fruit.
Major Wadhams, U. s. Army, who
was to have read paper at the meet.
Ing, was unable to be present, but his
treatise was read by Mrs. Wadhams.
Judge Dole, who presided, spoke Of
the necessity of making some change
In the manner OF handling the funds OF
the local society. and Il was at his In.
stigation that the resolution was intro
duced and passed.
On motion OF Mrs. J. r. Gait 1t was
decided to have the President appoint
