Hits at Men and Women in At

.Ien eat too much grease in their
food and women eat too many sweet
things for the race to be healthy
Eone. Such diet becomes habit and
an abnormal craving Is created. Taken
little sleep one day and too much the
next-the stomach gets ont OF order
and the entire nervous system Is shat
tered. We see this ON every hand every
day. 1t is the growing menace to the
physical prosperity of the nation"
The young Cooper stomach man
| attacked the diet Of San Francisco
people yesterday in an interview de-
claring that the we'll being OF the race
was in danger from careless habits
of living. Cooper Is the fastener
who has created veritable furore of
comment in the bay cities by his
theories that 95 per cent of all i'll
health is caused by stomach trouble
and nothing else. Judging from the
number of people who have announced
themselves converts to his beliefs he
has had remarkable success here. He
has been demonstrating several medi-
cal preparations of his own manufac-
Ian building. and claims that more
shan $4,000 people in San Francisco are
Using his remedies.
Continuing his interview, the "stom-
ach man" said:
Il can not make it too strong when
say that the American race is in
danger from our diet. The stomach
of our people is degenerating from
overeating, lack of exercise and neglect
of health laws We stuff our bodies
with all kinds of food men too much
grease and women too much candy and
sweetmeats. as / said. This is fatal
to the welfare of the individual, but
even more SO to the whole community
because of its wide prevalence.
Thousands of people in San Fran
cisco are half sick all of the time and
don't know the reason why. It's as
simple as A B c. A stomach out of
order skaters the nervous system and
results in headaches, dizziness, faint
ing fits palpitation of the heart and
nervous prostration. A stomach out
of order binders the kidneys from do
ing their work properly and causes
kidney trouble. A stomach out of
order disorganizes the delicate and i'm
portant machinery of the liver and
causes narrowing liver trouble. A
stomach out of order prevents food
from digesting properly and causes it
to ferment and form gas. and the
poison resulting is pumped into the
blood. That is the reason for all this
i'll health in San Francisco-this
droopy. dopey, tired feeling that every
body seems to have.
The treatment is simple. Tone up
the stomach. Put it in normal working
order and all the trouble disappears.
This is what my medicine does. 1t
acts as gentle tonic for the .stomac CHI
and puts it in order. In the IA weeks
have been I'm San Francisco / have
had thousands of people come to me
suffering from what they thought were
all kinds of diseases. In some cases,
of course. they were. suffering from
serious ailments. and when found this
was so [ would tell them frankly.
But I am safe in saying that In 95
cases out of 100 there was nothing
the matter but stomach trouble. Sew
enty-five thousand people in San Fran
cisco are taking my remedies now.
Hundreds who have been cured have
given their names to the newspapers
and they have been published. This,
I think, is much stronger than any
thing I could say myself
Among Cooper's callers Saturday was
c. A. Huffman of sT3 Dolores street
He said
Il was a sufferer from catarrh of
the stomach for more than year.
suffered great agony and tried many
remedies without relief until taking
Coopers treatment. His remedy made
me feel like a new man and am glad
to thank him for 1t, as I have done
