SOME STATEMENTS REGARDING NEW THEORY Followers of Cooper and His Novel Ideas Give Reason for Their ueiiei in Him. With a theory that human health is dependent on the stomach and with a medicine which he says proves this theory, I T. Cooper, a comparatively young man, has built up an immense f. 'lo'vin? during the past year. Cooper has Visited most of the lead ing cities of the country, and in each city has aroused a storm of discussion about his beliefs and his medicine. Wherever he has gone, people have called upon him by tens of thousands, and his preparation has sold in im mense quantities. The sale of this medicine has now spread over the entire country, and is growing enormously each day. In view of this, the following statements from two of the great number of fol lowers which he now has are of gen eral interest1 Mrs. Agnes Viggenhouser, of 942 St Louis avenue, Chicago, has the following to say on the subject of the Cooper preparations: "For more than ten years I was broken down in health. I could not sleep and I was very nervous. Gradually I began to lose my memory, until I could not re member things from one day to an other. I had severe pains and cramps in my body, and I would at times see dark spots before my eyes. I was un able to do any work whatever, as my strength was failing. I had no appe tite, nor could I take any medicine. I had about given up hope of ever The Callender Navigation Company yesterday closed negotiations for the sale of the steamer Wenona to Cap tain W. E. Hull (her old master), John Johnson and Oscar Oleson. She will be placed back on her old Gray's River run, with Captain Hull in com mand. The price paid for the vessel was $9,000. bcinii well aaaiii when I read of Mr Cooper's remedies. I decided to give them a trial, and I began to feci bet tcr at once. After taking the medi- cino for two weeks I can say that 1 am a new woman. I can eat with en joyment, the pains in my body have left me, and I am stronger than I have been for years. "I cannot say endugh for Mr CooDer's remedies. They are won derful, for they have done everything claimed for them m nw case. Another statement by Mr. W. 11. Stewart, 109 W. Madison street, Chi caco. is as follows: "I have had stom ach trouble for years, and any one who is afflicted this way knows what an awful distressed feeling it cause. Many a time I have felt that I would give most any price to be cured. It was by accident that I heard of this man Cooper's remedies. I immedi atelv made uo my mind to buy a treatment of him. I used it for about two weeks, and it is impossible to tell how much good it has done me. I feel altogether different. 1 have more life and energy fnan I have had for vears. This medicine certainly does stimulate and strengthen the whole system. Tired feeling and weak con dition of the stomach has entirely nassed away. I feel well again.

WHEN DOCTORS DISAGREE. Prof. Whitney and Dr. Sinclair Differ Upon Anthropological Ideas. SAN FRANCISCO, Cat, Feb. 20.- Claiming that men did not live in California at the time of the three- toed horse and that the claims of arlv human life in California made by Prof. J. D. Whitney, the eminent anthropologist, are all wrong, Dr. W. J. Sinclair has just issued a bulletin from the University of California that is expected to revolutionize mod ern anthropological ideas. The bulle tin covers investigations made by the university department of anthropol ogy and is issued under the title Re cent Investigations Bearing on the Question of the Occurrence of Ne- cene Man in the Auriferous Gravels of the Sierra Nevada." Of the human bones reported from the gravels the best known is the Cal averas skull, at present in the Pea bodv Museum at Harvard University. It is this skull lhat forms a basis for Professor Whitney's deduction that Doctor Sinclair attacks. His attack is based upon a critical examination of the auriferous gravels undertaken by the university depart ment of anthropology some years ago and just completed. as TEA You think one tea good as another?

IN FRISCO BAY GREATEST XrRAY OF BATTLE, SHIPS THE WORLD HAS EVER SEEN WILL GATHER THERE THIS SUMMER. SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 20.-The great fleet of battleships, cruisers and torpodo boats coming from the At lantic is on the long leg of its journey, having rounded the horn on its way up the Pacific Coast, with San Fran cisco as its objective point. While leisurely proceeding along its way, stopping to accept the hospitality of South American nations, the fleet is giving time to the people of San Fran cisco for the preparations for one of the greatest celebrations ever seen in this country. To those unaccustomed to the pre sence of large fleet of war vessels the full significance of the spectacle that will be presented in San Fran cisco's harbor during the visit of this fleet is not understood. There has never before been anything just like this spectacle will be. There have been manv assemblages of warships, at various times of the world's hist ory, but it may be said of the coming Catherine in San Francisco Bay that never has there been one that will carry so much of the spectacular as this. On the Eastern coast there is no opportunity, such as is offered on this bay, to have the vessels so con gregated as. to have them all in array under the eyes of the spectators at one time. At New York,v with the vessels of aj immense naval parade strung out over many nuics n impossible to see but a few at a time. At Hampton Roads, at the time of the deoarture of the fleet, the vista was one of ocean, which dwarfed the ves sels and made the spectacle appear small. Even at that time there were not so many vessels present as will be in San Francisco harbor when the fleet comes. In San Francisco Bay there is an appearance of an amphitheater, and vast multitudes of sight-seers can congregate on the surrounding hills of the City and look down upon such a concourse of ships as was never before gathered together in all times. It will be the sight of a life time, and it is probable that never again will those now living have a similar op portunity to gaze upon such a scene. These vessels are the highest type in existence, and the congregated neet will represent the flowers of the sec ond navy of the world, and in addit ion to the vessels which formed the parade of the Atlantic fleet at Hamp ton Road, will have the combined Pacific fleet as well forming such an aggregation as even the people of the well protected Atlantic Coast have never seen. This assemblage of warships will f m If M Eat to Suit Yourself But. . to Suit In order to get the best resuls and satisfaction you will find your expec tations will be nearest realized by wearing only Mart Schafflker Marx Copyright ig( by Hart Schaffner & Marx Remember, they cost you no more than other makes What You Get In H.S.$M.

It will give to visitors some adequate idea of the immensity of the Bay of San Francisco, for this great fleet will swing at anchor with not the slight est hindrance to the merchant marine which will assemble from all quarters of the globe to carry on the business ! of the port San Francisco is busily engaged in preparing to receive and care for, not only the twenty-four thousand men and officers of the Fleet, but of those other thousands of visitors who will flock to the City to see the wondrous display, and participate in the week of festivities which are being arrang ed. San Francisco is rapidly resum ing its old conditions, and the hun dreds of millions of dollars which have been spent in rehabilitation since the fire have made a wonderful change in the past few months. This rehab ilitation will also be one of the sights offered to those who visit the City to assist in welcoming the fleet. A Mural Youth.
