IS NOW A COOPER CONVERT
STOMACH MAN ENDORSED BY
EX-soLDlER WHO SUFFERED
FOR YEARS.

Cooper enthusiasts in Salt Lake
gained yesterday an interesting con-
vert TO the new cult in L. E. Kilkenny,
soldier. ex-cowboy and globe trotter,
who is stopping at the LenOX hotel
here L. L.. Kilkenny is the general
manager OF the Millar Publishing COM
pany, and is well known in Los Ange-
les, san Francisco and Seattle, where
the company mas offices. Probably no
one has had d more interesting hIc
than Mr.. Kilkenny, who IN his years OF
globe trQtting has met exciting adven-
lures in most of the little known cor
neTs of the earth.
During the Boer war Mr.. Kilkenny,
then in the Transvaal. had an expe-
rience which has now resulted IN his
being among the most enthusiastic fol
lowers Of the new medical cult.
Il came out of the trouble in the
Transvaai without scratch said Mr..
Kilkenny last night i was through 1t
ali-the long tramps, sometimes all day
without a bite to eat, the fighting, the
foraging expeditions. We used TO have
great suppers around the camphres,
sometimes, and stuff like kids at
Thanksgiving. Those were great times.
AS 1 said, 1 didn't get a scratch in
the war, but ] got back TO London with
the worst case of catarrhal infiamma-
tion Of the stomach on record. Any
way, it seemed that way to me. /
couldn't enjoy a mouthful I ate. Food,
instead of digesting, Iermented in my
stomach and formed gas, causing eX-
cruciating pains after eating. 1 began
TO have binding headaches, and life
looked like a hard job at poor pay.
4 tip the scales now at 500 pounds. 1
guess there isn't a larger man IN Salt
Lake today, and / know there isn't a
healthier one. But fifteen months ago
! was literally starving. My stomach
had got so it wouldn't retain a bite Of
food, and I was almost a skeleton.
couldn't sleep, and was getting worse
every day. A number of physicians
treated me, but couldn't seem to do any
permanent good.
Then / came to New York, and
there 1 met this Cooper He had New
York wild over his ideas, and 1 had
about lost faith in the old medical
theories. Well, of course, I wasn't
cured in a night, but what that man
did for me was almost as miraculous.
j took his treatment, and in a few
weeks I was almost my old self. 1
haven't had any Telapses since, and I
feel as well as 1 did when / was boy.
] can eat anything I want to without
bit of discomfort, and, as 1 said, there
isn't a healthier man in salt Lake"
My explanation of my success in
treating cases like Mr. Kilkenny's is
simple" said the Cooper stomach
man." when interviewed at his. head
quarters at Smiths BUSY Corner
drug store. 1.-THE stomach is the vital
point in the human body. Unless food
is turned into good. rich blood, the
whole system will go wrong. When a
man has a mass Of half-decayed food
lying in a stomach that can't dispose Of
il he has poison factory going right
where it viii DO the most harm. He is
bound to be sick.
Il have made a speciality Of stomach
troubles. My treatment simply tones
up the stomach, changes it from a
stuffed-up, sluggish, worn out organ
into a healthy, vigorous one. Nature
does the rest. A healthy stomach means
good. healthy blood, properly nOur-
ished nerves. Well-fed muscles, vigor
and vim and enjoyment of life
