PORTLAND OAS COMPANY
CHICAGO RESIDENT' RELATES
MOST GREWSOME EXPERIENCE
During L. T. Cooper's recent visit to
Chicago, where his new preparation
and theory created the usual sensation,
many hundreds of people brought
enormous internal parasites to the
young man, which had left the system
after taking; his medicine.
Among these people was Mr. Emil
Winkler, who brought to Cooper a
tapeworm that proved to be over
ninety feet in length. Mr. Winkler,
who resides at 182- Cast Ohio Street,
Chicago, had this to say of his experi
ence: "For five years I have been
more or less complaining. I hare had
severe headaches, and any food that I
would eat would nauseate me. I would
have bad dreams almost every night:
dizzy spells would compel me to quit
work. Black spots would appear be
fore my eyes when stooping over and
rising quickly. I would feel tired most
of the time;, in fact. I had no life in
me to speak of for the last five years.
I tried various treatments, and one
physician In St. Louis Was recom
mended to me. and I was under his
treatment some time, but as usual I
obtained no relief.
. "So many people asked me to try
Cooper's preparation that I decided
to do so, and after using it for a few
days, this awful thing passed from my
system. I feel much better already,
and I want to say right here that I
thank Mr. Cooper a hundred times for
what his medicine has done' for me. I
would not take J.'.OOO and have that
thing back In my system again."
Mr. Winkler Js a fair sample of the
experience of many during Cooper's
stay in Chicago, and this no doubt
helped to account for the enormous
sale of the Cooper preparation in this
city and others, recently visited by
the young man.
We sell and will be pleased to ex-'
plain the Cooper preparations. The
