FARM LIFE BEST
SAYS EASTERNER
Hard Work: and Fresh Air Help
Digestion and Mean
Good Health
No Nervous Breakdowns for
the Man Who Yields
the Hoe


L. T. Cooper, "the stomach man.
who is explaining his theory and med
icines to the public at the Phelan
building store of the Owl Drug Com
pany. is meeting more people each day
and seems to be attracting as much
attention in San Francisco as he has
in eastern cities.
Cooper's theory is that modern all
ments are largely due to stomach trout
BILE. He claims his preparation will
regulate the digestive organs in a few
weeks. In explaining his theory
Thursday afternoon he said: About
three out of five people who come to
ask about my medicine say: My nerves
are all unstrung,' or L am very nery-
ous,' or am on the verge of nervous
prostration All this nervous trouble
is due to just one thing-imperfect di-
gestion.
Did you ever hear of a farmer with
nervous prostration? / never did. The
farmer gets up early. Out he goes into
the fresh air to put in a days work
that would lay most of US up for a
week. AT noon the dinner horn blows.
He has worked his. body so hard that
his stomach is just shouting for food.
and you can-bet it gets it. The amount
of corred beef, cabbage, potatoes, bread.
pie, milk, ETC., that he puts away is
sight to see. Back he goes to the
fields. More hard work in the fresh
air and sunshine. Home at night, with
the same enormous appetite. A big sup
per, and then he sleeps as though
chloroformed. No restless tossing al.
night. Any nervous prostration for
him? Well, 1 guess not. He doesn't
have coated tongue and bad taste
in his mouth. He doesn't feel dull and
languid all day. He's living the life
that nature intended him to live and
his digestion is perfect. That's the Sc
cret-his digestion is perfect. When
ever man is digesting his food he's
well man. But until the digestive
organs are in perfect condition good
health is absolutely impossible.
"A tired, overworked stomach, pro-
duced by years of little outdoor exer-
else and too much hastily eaten food
can cause an endless amount of all
ments. among them being liver COM
plaint, kidney trouble, nervous break
down, blood troubles and even rheu-
matism-
Most people. however, are not seri-
ously affected by imperfect digestion.
They are just loggy and nervous and
easily tired They feel worn out
after a little exertion and are moody
and depressed. These are the sure
symptoms of an overworked stomach
that needs cleaning out and regulat-
ing. l have medicine that does this
very thing. | am at this store from
10 until o'clock each day to tell San
Francisco people. about it and before I
leave / will convince most of the half
sick, droopy folks in this community
that am right

Women Blame Human Ills on
Eating of Raw Apple

LAKE CITY, Mimi, Sept. 24.-Assert-
ing that Eve, when she ate the apple in
the Garden of Eden, unclaimed the
whole brood of ptomaines. toxins and
microbes that since have afflicted the
human race, Mrs. E. l.. Mann, OF st.
Paul, yesterday invited the Minnesota
Federation of Women's Clubs to unite
with her in undolng the evil. 1t was
just like a cunning old snake, she said,
to pick out an easy mark like Adam
for its fell purposes. If the apple prop
osition had been put up to a woman by
Eve instead Of to a man the result
would have been far different.
1t was through his appetite, Mrs.
Mann said, that man fell, and by the
same means he must be regenerated.
To do this he must be made germ
proof. This is to be accomplished, Mrs.
Mann said, by preventing man from
eating raw. or ill-cooked food. which Is
the cause of most of the sickness and
suffering in the world.
In place of raw apples. one delegate

Youth After Poison Is

Michael Centenia, 20 years old, son
of Tony Centenia, a carpenter, living at
10l Seventh avenue, was a sorrowful
young man today when he recovered
at st. Michaers Hospital from the eff
fects of a pumping out that the doc
tors there gave him early last night
to relieve him of a dose Of laudanum
he had taken in an attempt to com
NIT suicide. He was arraigned in the
Second Precinct Police Court today ana
heid In $500 bail on a charge OF attempt
ed suicide, made by Captain Brown.
Young Centenia had lived away from
home most of the time since he be-
came able to carr money. and his par
ents saw but little of him. A month
ago his father got him a position which
he held long enough to draw his first
pay. Then he disappeared again and
was next heard of last night at &c
Bloomfield avenue, where he had beer
boarding for two weeks. He went to
his room shortly after I o'clock and a
few minutes later opened his window
on the second floor and called to the
daughter of Mrs. Hudson, his landlady,
that he was Ill and wanted her mother
Immediately.
Mrs. Hudson hurried to the room
and found Centenia lying on the floor
unconscious, with an empty laudanum
bottle placed on top of a letter he hao
lert to his parents. In the letter he

give, and who Is likewise unknown to
his family or Mrs. Hudson, for driving

in part. He also begged the forgive
ness of his mother and the rest of his
family for his deed.
he can do all that in person today,
as after the st. Michaels Hospital doc

from the hospital this morning. He
