coming of any public character aroused
such widespread interest as did the
visit of l.. T. Cooper, the millionaire
phl!anthropist, to Atlanta.
MIR. Cooper is described as one of
Americas foremost leaders of ad-
vanced thought. and sprang into fame
and fortune through his new health
theories based on what is known as the
Ianlac treatment. He never ceases to
surprise you with the infinite variety
OF his knowledge, and its absolute cor
rectness and thoroug hness. In several
OF the larger cities, especially through
out the South, he has done a great deal
OF rellef work among the poor.
Mr.. Cooper is a firm believer in prac-
tcai philanthropy, and his relief work
IN Atlanta is already familiar to the
charity workers of that city. During
ms recent visit there he distributed at
the PIEDMONT Hotel, under the personal
direction of leading charity workers,
eleven hundred ready-made dresses of
exceiient quality to he poor women
ano children. Ladies prominent in At
lanta social life and many prominent
citizens were on hand early in the af-
ternoon to assist in cooperating with
Mr.. Cooper in this worthy cause.
A few weeks previous to this he Der
formed a similar service in Birming-
nam and donated one thousand dresses
to the poor of that city. Similar dona-
tons were also made in Jackson, Vicks-
burg, Memphis, Savannah, Montgom-
cry, Macon, Augusta, Nashville, Chat
tanooga and Knoxville. And his estab.
hshment of the now famous free
bread line in Louisville, where he dis
trlbuted fifty thousand loaves of bread
absolutely free and without question to
those in want, proved a revelation to
charity workers there. In fact, in
practically every city Mr.. Cooper has
visited he has always shown his great
sympathy for the poor and unfortunate
by performing som unique act of
charity.
Mr.. Cooper contends that nine-tenths
OF the diseases and i'll health of the
~present-day American is due to faulty
digestion and improper assimilation of
the food, which finally produces a
stuffed up condition of the vital organs.
1t has been said that Tanlac, his cele-
brated medicine which is now accom-
plishing such remarkable results
throughout the country, not only quickly
overcomes all catarrhal Inflammation of
the mucous membrane, but acts direct
ly in correction of stomach, liver, kid
ney and intestinal disorders.
Tanlac has been so convincingly prov
en- by the thousands upon thousands
who have endorsed it, it is also a recon-
structive tonic of great power, and has
been known to entirely relieve the most
obstinate cases of rheumatism and
blood disorders, in a very short time.
1t is, indeed, doubtful if ANYTHING

lar favor in so short a time. People ev.

nal.
In Atlanta, where Tanlac was placed
on sale seven months ago over As, 900
bottles have been sold, which. accord
ing to the Jacobs Pharmacy Co., of that
city, has established a new record and
Is unprecedented in the history of the
drug business in Atlanta. In the city
of Knoxville the Kuhlman-C hambliss
Co. sold and distributed 43, 326 bottles
in nine months. In Louisville, Ky,
the Taylor-Isaacs Drug Co., who OPP

sold 32, 900 bottles in less than 80 days.
Through the Nashville office alone
nearly 100. 600 bottles were sold in six
months time. The demand for Tanlac
IN Birmingham, Chattanooga, and, in
fact. everywhere it has been intro
duced has likewise been phenomenal,
and the demand for it is constantly in
creasing. A total of over one million
bottles of the medicine have been sold
in nine months time, and it is, without
a doubt, the most widely talked of
medicine in the world today.
When asked to explain this record
breaking demand for Tanlac, Mr.. G. F.
Willis, Mr.. Cooper's Southern repre-
sentative, said: There can be only
one possible explanation and it can be
told in one word-'merit. That tells
the whole story. No preparation, no
matter how extensively advertised, can
possibly meet with such phenomenal
success, unless it possesses extraordi-
nary curative powers"
Thousands upon thousands are testi-
flying daily that they have been re-
lieved of disease after years of suffer
ing, by its use.
