l.. T. Cooper, Noted Philanthropist
Gives Large Part of Income
to Charity

OlVeS Large fart OI income
to Charity
Not in recent years, perhaps, has
the coming of any public character
aroused such widespread interest as
has the proposed visit to Kansas City
and other Western cities, of L. T.
Cooper, the Millionaire Philanthropist.
Mr.. 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
Tanlac treatment. He never ceases
to surprise you with the infinite va
riety of his knowledge, and its abso-
lutte correctness and thoroughness. In
several of the larger cities, he has
done great deal of relief work among
the poor.
Mr.. Cooper is a firm believer in
practical philanthropy and his relief
work is familiar to charity workers
over the entire country. His Southern
representative while in Houston, Tex
as, recently distributed, under the per-
sonal direction of leading charity
workers, one thousand dresses of ex-
cellent quality to poor women and
children. In San Antonio, the fol-
lowing week he donated another thou
sand dresses to the poor of that city,
and few days later four hundred of
the garments were provided by him
for the poor women and children of
Galveston. Ladies prominent in So
cial life and many prominent citizens
Of these places assisted and co-operat-
ed with Mr.. Cooper's representative in
this worthy cause.
Gives $4,000 Loaves of Bread
Similar service was also performed
by Mr.. Cooper in Memphis, Birming-
ham, Atlanta, Little Rock, Shreveport,
Ncksburg, Jackson, Nashville, Knox
VILE, Chattanooga, Macon, Savannah,
Montgomery, Mobile and Augusta,
and his establishment Of the famous
free bread line at Louisville, where he
distributed $4,000 loaves of bread alb
solutely 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 I'M
fortunate by performing some unique
act of charity.
Mr.. Cooper contends that nine
tenths Of the diseases and i'll health
Of the present day in America is due
to faulty digestion and improper as
similation of the food, which finally
produces a stuffed up condition Of the
vital organs.
1t has been said that Tanlac, his
celebrated medicine which is now ac-
complishing such remarkable results
throughout the country, not only
quickly overcomes all catarrhal in
Examinations of the mucuous mem
brane, but acts directly in the correc-
ton of stomach, liver, kidney and in
testinal disorders.
Tanlac, as has been so convincingly
proven by the thousands upon thou
sands who have endorsed it, it is also
reeonstructive tonic of great power,
and has been known to entirely re-
lieve the most obstinate cases of
rheumatism and blood disorders in a
very short time
Tanlac Sales Phenomenal
1t is, indeed doubtful if anything
ever placed on the market in the way
of a medicine has sprung into such
popular favor in so short a time.
People everywhere have been quick
to recognize it's wonderful merit. The
demand for it has been nothing short
of phenomenal.
In Seattle, Washington, over So
900 bottles were sold and distributed
by jobber and retailer in eight weeks
time, which established a new record
there, and is unprecedented in the his
tory of the drug business. In Denver,
over $4,000 bottles were sold in six
months, in Fort Worth, Texas, 122 ,204
bottles were sold in twelve months
time, in Atlanta, Georgia, over 1867
900 bottles were sold in twelve months
time, in Dallas, Texas, 10000 bottles
were sold in twelve months time, in
Knoxville, Tenn, the Kuhlman- Cham
bliss Co. sold and distributed 48,326
bottles in nine months, in Louisville,
KY, the Taylor-Isaacs Company, who
operate eight retail stores in that
city, sold $4,000 bottles in less than
ninety days. In fact everywhere. Tan
lac has been introduced its SAFE has
likewise been phenomenal and the de-
mand for it is continually increasing.
A total of more than two and half
million bottles of the medicine has
been sold through the Atlanta Office
alone during the past eighteen months,
and it is without doubt the most
widely talked of medicine today.
When asked to explain this rec
ord-brcaking demand, Mr.. G. F. Will
lis, International Distributor of Tan
lac, said: "There can be only one pos
sible 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, phenom-
inal success unless it possesses ex-
traordinary curative power"
Thousands upon thousands are
testifying daily that they have been
relieved of disease after years of suf-
fering by its use.
Tanlac is sold in Pennington by
the City Drug Store, in Desloge by G.
A. Robertson, Elvins by Reece Drug
Co., and in Bonnie Terrc by the Bonnie
