 Mir. Cooper, it was learned, is in Nash vile today and had planned to go d- rectly to Cincinnati, but finally deter mined to include Birmingham in his itinerary. Cooper is described as one of Americas foremost leaders of advanced thought and particularly in connection with his new health theories, based on what Is known as the Tanlac treatment. His supposition, drawn from the reports made to him, is that much of the dis ease and suffering now prevalent in this section, Is caused by weak, disordered stomachs, and that nine out of ten of these disorders directly attributable to imprudence In eating and drinking
 
 air.
 In many of the larger cities of the east and middle west, where MT. Cooper has passed the greater part of the past year, in public health work, hygienlc re- search and philanthropic endeavor prac- tically the same conditions existed, and 1t Is one of MT. Cooper's theories that the Tanac treatment is the direct rem edy therefor.

In the large cast ern cities and throughout the middle wes, and great portion of the south thou sands have been converted to Cooper s direct theories and have been ben efited accordingly by the Tanlac process. MT cooper IS distinguished throughout the country as a phlanthropist along in tensely practical lines In several cities he has co-operated directly with the As sociated Charities or relief committees upon an extended scale His establish. ment of the free bread line" at Louis- vile last winter for the distribution of bo,Oo0 loaves of bread absolutely free and without question to those in want proved a revelation to the charity workers of tha city.
