During his stay in Chicago, and while he was meeting thousands of people daily, he cave the following reason for the remarkable demand for his medicine to a reporter: Mr. Cooper said: "My New Dis covery is successful because it cor rects the stomach. My theory is that few can be sick if the digestive appa ratus is working properly. It natur ally follows that few can be well with a poor digestion. "I know -from experience that most of the tired, half-sick people that are so common now-a-days have half- sick stomachs. Put the stomach in shaoe. and nature does the rest The result is eeneral good health. My medicine does this. That is why 50, 000 people here in Chicago are using it who never heard of me until month ago." Stunner the 50.000 mentioned by Mr. Cooper who used his medicine in Chicago is Mrs. Hilda Pfluger, liy : 1?M Ainslee avenue. This is j u b - the statement she makes concerning her experience with the medicine: "I have been sick for six years with stomach trouble. I was always hungry, but did not dare to eat much, as I had severe pains in my stomach, and also through my body. I could not sleep at night and was very rest less. I was also very nervous, and would have severe headaches. I was constipated, and always felt bloated after eating. "I had tried many remedies, but could secure no relief, until one day I noticed in the nespapers what won derful results Cooper's medicines were accomplishing in Chicago. I de cided to try them, and shortly after commencing the treatment I began to feel better. I did not have those severe pains in my stomach, and I could sleep at night; my appetite im proved, and I can now eat well, am feelinf? like a new woman. "I am very thankful to Mr. Cooper for what his remedies have done for me. They have restored me to good health, and I would advise any one who suffers as I did to try them. We sell the Cooper medicines They are easily the most celebrated preparations ever introduced in this country, growing in popularity daily. Charles Rogers & Son.
