Iowa Mans Case Has a Parallel

With 4 theory that human health is
dependent on the stomach and with a
medicine which he says proves this
theory, L. r. Cooper, comparatively
young man has built up an immense
following during the past two years.
Cooper has visited most of the lead
ing cities of the country. and in each
city has aroused a storm of discussion
about his beliefs and his medicines.
Wherever he has gone, people have
called upon him by thousands, and his
preparation has sold in immense guam
titles.
The sale of this medicine has now
spread over the entire country, and is
growing enormously each day. In view
of this, the following statement from
ore of his many followers is general

lief after diligent search discouraged
me, and 1 began to feel that there was
little nope of ever again enjoying good
health.
Some time ago, however, I became
interested in some newspaper articles
dealing with the ideas and beliefs Of
l.. r. Cooper. His theory that the
stomach is responsible for the state
of ones health, either good or bad.
impressed me as being logical. He
claimed that no one could enjoy good
health with a bad stomach, likewise.
no one could be i'll with a stomach in
good condition. His further claim that
his New Discovery preparation would
restore the stomach to normal, induced
me to give it a trial.
