Fought to Retain
Formula Which Has
Made a Fortune

L. T. Cooper, the man who believes
that 80 per cent. of all ill health of
this generation is caused by stomach
trouble, is fast winning national faith
In his theory. His claim is now adj
mitted by a surprising number Of peo-
pie throughout the country, and he is
gaining new adherents every day.
While speaking of his success in a
recent interview, Mr.. Cooper said: 81
believed ten years ago that any one
who could produce a formula that
would thoroughly regulate the stom-
ach would have fortune When got
hold of this formula 1 knew within six
months that I was right, and that my
fortune was made. I called the med
icine Cooper's New Discovery, al
though 1 did not get up the formula.
1 have owned it, however, for over
five years. 1 have had one lawsuit
over it, which I won in the courts
When it was settled The Cooper
Medicine Company became the only
firm in the world that can prepare
the medicine The preparation has
sold like wildfire wherever introduced
AS 1 have said before, it is successful
simply because it puts the stomach
in perfect shape, then nature does
the rest There are any number of
complaints never before associated
with stomach trouble that the medi-
cine has alleviated in thousands OF
cases..
Among statements obtained recent
ly from users of this medicine that is
arousing such universal discussion is
one from Mrs. Emma Stanley, living in
Chicago, at 713 Washington Boule-
most complicated case that Mr. Cooper
had to deal with. / was troubled for
years with my stomach. 1 consulted
with doctors and took many patent
medicine preparations without result
My stomach was in such a wretched
shape that I could not enjoy a meal
that l ate.
4 was very nervous, and could hard
ly sleep. 1 had a roaring in my ears
and dancing spots before my eyes. 1
felt very bad and weak. Then there
was very sore spot at the pit of my
stomach that nearly set me wild.
Il heard about the Cooper medicine
and decided to try it. 1 used four bot
ties, and the improvement in my case
has been really wonderful. My nerves
have been quieted, and 1 am so much
improved that 1 feel like new
woman.
q cannot say too much for these
wonderful remedies, for they have
made me WE'LL
Cooper's New Discovery is sold by
all druggists. If your druggist cannot
supply you, we will forward you the
name of a druggist in your city who
will. Don't accept something just as
good."-The Cooper Medicine Co..
