PHYSICIANS OF J.
OMAHA DISAGREE
Different OPINIONS ON coon
ER's REMARKABLE SUCCESS
HELD az MEDICAL MEN OF,
NEBRASKA METROPOLl

Omaha, Neb., Feb. 1e.-The aston
fishing sale Of Cooper's preparations in
this city has now reached such i'm.
mense figures that the medical frater.
nifty at large have become forced into
open discussion of the man and his
preparations.
The physicians as q whole seem to
be divided with regard to the young
mans success In Omaha-some be-
ing willing to credit him for what he
has accomplished, while others assert
that the interest he has aroused IL
but q passing fad which cannot last,
and which will die out as quickly as
it has sprung up.
The opinion of these two factions IL
very well voiced in the statements
made recently by two of number OF
physicians who were interviewed ON
the subject.
DR.. ]. E. Carass when questioned
about the matter said: II have not
been q believer in proprietary prepa-
rations heretofore, nor can I say that
believe in them at present. But

Gently brought to my notice concern
ing this man Cooper have gone far
towards removing the prejudice had
formed against him when the I'M
heard-of demand for his preparations
first sprang up in this city. Numbers
of my patients whom have treated
for chronic liver, kidney and stomach
troubles have met me after taking
Cooper's remedy and have stated
positively that he has accomplished
wonderful results for them. l notice

cases of years. standing that proved
very obstinate to treatment.
Il am the last man on earth to
stand in the way Of anything that may
prove for the public good simply
through professional prejudice, and
l am inclined to give Cooper and his
preparations credit as deserving to
some extent the popular demonstra-
ton that has been accorded them in
this city,
Another well known physician who
was seen took the opposite view Of
the "Cooper-mania," as he called 1t,
which now has this city in its grip.
He said: II can only Hken the present
state of affairs to certain kind Of
hallucination. For want of a better
name, might call it 'Cooper-mania.'
The people OF Omaha seem to be
firm in the belief that this man Cooper
has health corked up in a bottle.
