being c. c. Cooper. president Of the
Georgia Home Cotton Oil Company,
OF Lawrencevillc, Ga.
Mr.. Cooper, aside from being9one
OF the most prominent business men
OF his home town, is well known
throughout this section Of the coun-
try. Mr.. Coopers unqualified 8en-
dorsement Is, therefore, to be consid-
cred OF great Importance and the pub

nothing has ever been placed N the

popularity.
"Over one million bottles OF this
celebrated medicine was sold in nine
months time, and it is unQucstion-
ably the most widely talllcd-of medi-
