sessed of an unusual amount OF
personal magnetism, Cooper
seems to draw his crowds from
all walks of life, and from every
where in the Blue Grass section.
During the course of a re cent
lecture he said:
Possibly the most prevalent
and distressing condition known
to we Americans is chronic Ca
tarrh of the mucuous mem branes.
Catarrh of the stomach is the
most frequent cause OF dyspep-
sia, and catarrhal conditions In
the nose and throat lead to IN
evitable deafness. Show me a
man whose hearing Is affected
and l will show you a man who
is suffering from catarrh.
Frequently continued the
great student, "the lungs be-
come diseased by the extension
of catarrhal inflammation by way
of the bronchial tubes to the
lung substance. -
The mental and physical state
of chronic catarrh sufferers Is,
indeed, very unfortunate, and
it is really surprising to know
what an immense number OF
people are suffering from tins
almost universal malady whep
they think something else ls
wrong with them"
Cooper then enumerated the
numerous symptoms of catarrh,
such as an offensive breath,
constant smiling, discharges
from the nose, droppings in the
throat, frequent sneezing, wat
cry eyes. full head. headaches,
depression of spirits, nervous
ness, unsound digestion, lost ap-
petite, and susceptibility to
coughs and colds.
Cooper then told how the faui-
ty methods of living produce
rheumatism and kidney COM
plants. How the body, when
the organs falter or fail. fills up
with poisons generated by ones
own system.
He explained how Tanlac, the
miraculous medicine, would COM
bat these conditions, as 1t had
done among the thousands,
of sufferers in the East, as well
as many hundreds in Lexington
who had already used the prepa'
ration, and found Tanlac an un-
failing source of benefit. Tan
lac" he said, builds up the
constitution weakened by dis
ease and mental and physical
overwork, quickens GONZALES
cence, and is a sound source of
comfort to the aged and infrm. F"
Tanlac is sold in Barbourville
