PHYSICIANS OF
OMAHA DISAGREE
DIFFERENT OPINIONS ON COOP
ER's REMARKABLE SUCCESS
HELD BY MEDICAL MEN OF
NEBRASKA METROPOLIS.


Omaha, Neb., Feb. 16.--The aston.
ishing 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 az whole seem to
be divided with regard TO the young
mans success in Omaha--somc be.
ing willing to credit him for what he
has accomplished. while others assert
that the interest he has aroused is
but passing fad which cannot last,
and which will die out as quickly as
it has sprung up.
The opinion OF these two factions Is
very well voiced in the statements
made recently by two of number Of
physicians who were interviewed on
the subject
DR.. ]. f. Carass when questioned
about the matter said: Il have not
been n believer in proprietary prepa-
rations heretofore. nor can say that
believe in them at present. But |
must admit that some of the facts re-
Gently brought to my notice concern
ing this man Cooper have gone far
towards removing the prejudice ! had
formed against him when the un.
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
Coopcr's remedy and have stated
positively the he has accomplished
wonderful results for them. notice
particularly in cases of stomach trou-
BILE that the man has relieved several
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
am inclined to give Cooper and his
preparations credit as deserving 70
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 II,
which now has this city In It's grip,
He said: Il can only liken the present
state of affairs TO certain kind OF
hallucination. For want of a better
name, | might call 1t 'Coopcr.manla'
The people of Omaha seem to be
firm in the belief that this man Cooper
has health corked up in bottle.
Some of them imagine that he has
completely cured them Of various Ills,
Judging from their statements. II Is
beyond me to say why the city has
gone crazy over the man. 1t may be
safely put down, | think, TO one OF
the passing fads that so often attack
the American public.
Sooner or later the people are
bound to regain their senses and will
then realize that the reputable physi.
clan is the one to whom their health
had best be entrusted"
In the meantime Cooper meets sew
eral thousand people daily. and only
smiles when statements OF the above
character are quoted to him.

CARE OF VALUABLE CHINA
Sudden Changes Of Temperature to
Be Guarded Against--Arrange-
ment OF Shelves.

The heaviest cut glass cracks under
change Of temperature. writes cor
respondent OF the Chicago Tribune.
once saw an ice cream dish of this
costly ware split In half while the
mold OF ice cream was being helped.
Inquiry at the factory disclosed the
fact that the sudden fall of tempera-
ture, combined with the pressure in
cutting the ice cream. had caused the
accident. Had the dish been set in the
refrigerator a little while before the
Ice cream had been served it would
never have split in half In washing
cut glass, therefore, place II in warm
water first before putting IL In the hot
soap suds.
When cleansing delicate and costly
china, strong soaps and soap powders
should be avoided. They will surely
eat into the gliding and decorations.
Either ammonia or borax is safer.
In arranging handsome china on the
shelves. soft mats should be placed
between the plates to avoid scratches
and hicks. The cups should be hung
by their handles from hooks. This Is
much safer than piling them up on
the shelves. Platters should rest
lengthwise in groove on the back OF
the shelf.
In washing handsome glass and
china there should always be an ex.
ceedingly soft cloth to be used for n
polisher after the piece has been dried
with the usual dish cloth.
In washing ordinary china It will be
found that the hotter the water the
easier the pieces are to dry and the
SINNER they will be.
II a housekeeper can persuade her
maid TO rinse.off all dishes before put
ting them into the first dishwater she
has indeed achieved a triumph. and
the maid will learn at once that such
systematic dishwashing makes the
work a hundred times easier than to
dump greasy dishes into pan Of luke.
warm soap suds.
The general rule for washing dishes
is first the glasses, then the teaCups,
then the silver and then the plates.
While waiting for their turn to come
the silver should be piled into large
crock or earthware bowl full of hot
water. with little powder or am.
monia They will be entirely free from
grease by the time you are ready to
wash them.
The cook who scatters food around
the sink and pours greasy water down
the pipe should be taught one good
lesson by her mistress. but the cook
whose sink Is as clean and shining as
a new tin pan il an abiding joy.
