| l.. T. Cooper, the young man who has
stirred up eastern cities with his
theories and medicines. feels confident
that his success will be as pronounced
in Los Angeles and throughout the
coast Cooper is making his headquar-
! tiers while in this city at the Owl drug
store, 625 South Broadway. There he
explains his theory that the human
stomach is responsible for most ILL
health, and that the American stomach
| is growing weak. In discussing his sue
| cess in the east, Cooper said yesterday:
lone hundred and fifty thousand peo-
pie in New York, 10000 in Chicago and
nearly 10000 in Boston are taking or
have taken my medicine. These are the
three cities l visited last before coming
| to the west. The reason is this: The
American people have stuffed thenl-
| selves with food and taken little or 10
exercise for so long that about half OF
| them are sick. They don't know just
what is the matter with them. My
preparation regulates the digestive
! functions, that's all; yet | am told
every day by many people that they
were suffering from nervous breakdown
or kidney trouble, or liver complaint OF
rheumatism, or other diseases too nu-
merous to mention, until they took my
medicine.
LAS a matter of fact, the average
man or woman cannot be sick if the
stomach is working properly To be
| sure, there are diseases of a virulent
character, such as diabetes, cancer, tu-
berculosis, ETC., which are organic and
are not traceable to the stomach, bul
even fevers can, i'll nine cases out ol
| ten, be traced to something taken into
the stomach, although they must run
their course when once started.

Among Cooper's callers Tuesday. who
have become enthusiastic on the sub
iect of his medicines. was p. ]. O'Regar
of 112 lie Roy street, Los Angeles, who
made the following statement:
II was on the police force here fol
eight years. During that time / be-
came the victim of rheumatism. stom-
ach trouble and liver complaint.
tried all kinds of medicine and con-
suited many physicians, but without
results, and I finally left the force OF
account of poor health. l had often
thought my chief trouble was catarrh
of the stomach, but had been treated
by various physicians at different times
for several diseases. l had given uI
all hope several years ago. My life had
become such a burden that | took nc
pleasure in living. / could neithe;
work, eat nor sleep. I was emaciated
and dripped sweat from weakness upon
the slightest exertion.
"I obtained the Cooper treatment
some time ago. I had been taking the
medicine about four days when l be-
gan to realize 1 had found something
that was really helping me. l was
sleeping better, my food began to taste
better and seemed to digest. Every day
was more improved. l now eat three
hearty meals a day, have gained
pounds and can do a days work with
any man. There is no more grateful
individual on earth than l. would
not take all the money in Los Angeles
and be in that same wretched condition
