Cooper during the past year has not been confined to any one locality; but is so widespread that the young man Is now .a well-known figure in, most of the leading cities of the country. Mr. Cooper believes that the stom ach is the foundation- for most ill health, and claims that his prepara tion, by regulating the stomach, is a true specific for most diseases. The following extract from the Tribune of Minneapolis gives an idea of the sur prising number of people who are ac cepting Cooper's theory. The article was one of many that appeared during Cooper's stay in Minneapolis, and is as follows: ' "The sale of Cooper's preparation is now phenomenal in this city, and an estimate made today seems to indi cate beyond all doubt that it will equal the large figures reported from Pitts burg during the thirty days Mr. Coop You Need A Weak Man Do you- get up in the morning tired, a weighty feeling deep in your head, with heavy eyes, a general sense of weakness all oer you? Does your back ach? Haveyou a dull, never-ceasing headache that when you. move suddenly Increases to a violent, throbbing pain for a few moments? Are yo.u perpetually tired, with disinclination for either mental or physical activity? Are you tortured by an extreme hunger that, when you attempt to eat turns toa loathing of food? - Do you experience hot and cold flashes up and dowa the spinal column,- palpitation of the heart, sleeplessness, extreme nervousness, and a con stant craving for something that you are unable to Identify? Are you oppressed at times with a nameless dread as If of some impending danger? A Serious Condition If you have any of the above symptoms yours Is beyond doubt a case of functional Weakness wrought on by an excessive waste of nervous en ergy.

"Weakness" Is merely an indication of a low form of inflammation in the prostate gland, and this Inflammation is but aggravated by atimulating remedies that excite temporary activity.
