Cooper, the young man who claims that the stom achs of many Americans are degenerate, has presented a scene of unusual activ ity for tho past few days. Cooper with his assistants Is meeting the public at rr'sent in New York. The success he has had in other cities seems to have followed him here, for an aston ishing number of people. ar calling to have his theory and medicines explained to them. , , . , , nv.,.,.aiv oftornnnn wlien Interviewed. rooper said: "I am often asked if my medicine is good for kidney trouble, or liver complaint, or rheumatism, or a dozen other- diseases too numerous to mention. These are hard questions to answer. Frankly, ray treatment Is for the stomach, and for rhe sfomach alone, but If the function of digestion is be ing properly performed very few people can oe sick. . . m .B- , 'The stomach Is the seat of life. The entire system depends upon its action. Why are there so many half-sick people today? It is because the stoma6h of a man or woman who lives a shut-up life day after day. taking little or no exer cise in the fresh air, cannot digest the amount of food that is forced upon tt. It gradually grows weaker under these circumstances, and nervousness, kidney trouble, rheumatism, etc.. Is the result. "I am successful with my treatment because the medlcl.he cleans out the food tracts that have become clogged, gets the digestive organs regulated and Jives nature a chance. Give nature a chance, that's the secret of health. "Last year I was on a fishing trip In Northern Minnesota. I had two guides spent their lives In the woods who had trapping, hunting and fishing. When night came these men wauld eat a fry ing pan full of bacon, pouring the greas over great hunks of a soggy sort of bread. The sight of these, slabs of bacon would sicken most New Yorkers, but these men munched It down with a relish and then rolled up In a blanket and slept like logs. They never knew they had a stomach, so perfectly did the fastrlc juices perform their function, askect them if they were ever sick. They both laughml at the Idea. 'Never had a minute's sickness,' they said. "Modern conditions make it Impos sible for people to live as these men live, but If they get their digestions in shnpe there will be mighty little rheu matism or kidney trouble or liver com plaint. I do not believe in taking medi cine unless it Is necessary, but if a man o woman is suffering with what Is called 'a general run-down condition,' and what I call ' played-out stomach,' will take Cooper's New Discovery for six weeks, I can assure them they will need no more medicine for many months to come. " 'The proof of the pudding Is In the eating.' 1 have been in New York only two weeks. Today I have had a doien people call and thank me for my 'won derful medicine.' as they call it. These are only the first. Such people will call by hundreds before I leave. Cooper's Xew Discovery Is now. on sale at leading drug stores through out the United States. It has made a remarkable record. Ask druggist (or it. your OPENING ANNOUNCEMENT Today. December 8, we will formally open our new store at 142 Fifth street.

Between Morrison and Alder .- The curtain goes up In one of the acts at the Orpheum this week and shows the stage without settings, car penters at work, stage hands loafing among the "props" and wings. For a second the audience fears that the stage manager has forgotten himself. Then an old man hobbles out of a dressing room door and approaches the footlights, remonstrating with the stage hands over the terrible noise the work man is making. It is the beginning of a little sketch called "The Opera Singer," in which Homer Llnd appears and sings several songs in a wonderful baritone voice. ' Llnd has a David Warfleld walk, wears a David Warfield cape and is looking for his long lost daughter. Just like the "Music Master." Incidentally, he gets several opportunities to. use his voice In songs in which Mr. Llnd made a decided hit. There are laughs, many of them, and little Incidents of human interest throughout the sketch. Imi tations are sometimes better than the original. You should see and hear Llnd before vou pass your opinion. "Superstition," a playlet. In wWTch a fortune teller, a politician and a newspaper reporter apear. was received with enthustasm last night. Charles W. Bowser as Big Jim Kingston, the polV tician. Is overheard to make certain re mnrks to Kloteau, an astrologer (Miss Rilith Hlnkle). which might be used against him in the paper for which the reporter worKS i ne nwsimper shows his hand, ininKing great story. "Telephone he man has a your managing editor,' Big Jim says, "and tell him to raise your salary. You are a good man." The reporter asks tho politician what he has to do with the Morning Scream. "Do with It?" replies the politician "Why, I bought the paper this morn ing. There isn't a dull turn at the Or pheum this week. Arthur Lo. Vine and Edmund Leonard put on an automobile horse play act in which the chauffeur and the tramp do a little bit of every thing. The tramp Juggles cigars and matches and hats the chauffeur tries to repair the machine. Explosions and other things follow. Miss Sue Smith, "The American Girl." sings German, Italian and good United States songs and makes a hit She annealed to the gallery particularly because she asked the boys up there to help her In whistling songs. And the boys did their part, you may depend on It. Miss La Petite Mignnn, about as hlg as a minute and as lively as a ilee, sings Cohan songs, mimics Anna Held and Just gets the audience going on ac count of hec sprightllness. Snyder and Buckley, musical come dians, Introduce a lot of new stunts, including antics with two stuffed cats, who have eyes and yells Just like live eats at night. George Hermann and Park Byers have what Is called "The Clown's Dream." which gives Mr. Hermann an oportunlty to do a skeleton dance and some contortions that had the big first night audience wondering Imw he ever lives to do It more tnan mice, nyors, as the .clown, is aiso goou. riSTITLITE Of 11 C.

The case Is especially Interest ing, due to the fact that the books de clare chronic Bright's Disease Incurable? and rive city pnyslclans had passed on the case and diagnosed It as Bright's Disease.
