COOPER'S THEORIES
Eight Living and Thinking Are Most Important
Factors to Health, Declares Celebrated Author
ity, Wholesome Food, Recreation, Exercise
and Fresh Air Also Are Necessary.
The United States has produced many philoso
phers and teachers and has been electrfied by many
orators of world renown, but never in the history of
this country have teachings taken such deep root and
spread among all classes so rapidly as have the philos
ophy and theories of health and right living pro
pounded by L. T. Cooper, the noted lecturer and mil
lionaire manufacturer of Tanlac.
From an attitude of di- belief
and criticism, leaders of thought
and action have been brought to
investigate the spreading phe
nomena of the growing popular
ity of this man's philosophy, and
hundreds, of the skeptics have
followed the thousands of the
maisses of the people, who have
become not only devout believeri.
in his teachings, but practicers as
acll.
Hundreds of thousands arc
now taktns Tanlac, but the most
convincing proof of the correct
ness of his theories Is the testi
mony of tlie vast number of well
known men and women from all
purls of the country whom he has
actually benefited.
It Is not unlikely that Mr.
Cooper may decide to visit Taco
ma at an early date. He is now
at bis home in Dayton, 0., and in
the event that he should include
this city In his Western Itinerary,
It Is hoped he can be Induced to
deliver at least one lecture while
here, and give the people of. this
city the same benefits of his
study and medicine that he has
given the people of Cincinnati,
Louisville, Nashville, Memphis,
Birmingham, Atlanta and the
larger cities of the North and
East.
Mr. Cooper Is a man of rare
talent, magnetic force and charm
of manner. He never ceases to
surprise you with the infinite
variety of his knowledge, and Its
absolute correctness and thoro-
in
The following is an extract
from one of Mr. Cooper's recent
lectures on health and hygiene:
"Don't expect to get over phy
sical disease by taking my medi
cine and waiting a few days. It
takes a long continuation of
abates to stomach and other
vital organs to produce an In
valid; and even with the aid
ef medicine, time is neces
aaryy to restore health. Tis
sue must be rebuilt and the entire
system put In working order—
and kept that way by food and
habits that render health possi
ble.
"Right living and right think
ing are the most important fac
tors to health. Medicine only
gives the Individual a chance.
Don't try to live on Tanlac or any
ether medicine. Wholesome food,
exercise, recreation, cheerfulness,
fresh air, sunshine and work are
the things for you to use every
day, and you will notice that I
don't pat alcohol or tobacco on
the list. Stimulants and nar
cotics are seldom necessary.
"Tlie people who make and sell
Tanlac are Interested In each and
every sufferer In this country. We
want you to get over your trou
ble and be well aud strong again.
We don't want the Tanlac treat
ment to fall In a single instance,
and we do rrot believe It will
where suffering of any kind re
sults directly or indirectly from
Young Britons Drill in Trafalgar Square
With uniforms made of newspapers nnd weapons of sticks the school boys of London drill
daily nil over the city. Sometimes a constable chases tlie "nrnij, " when the crowd that gathere
gets big enough to blink traffic. But just am often the pollceuutn noes something "suspicious"
in another direction. This picture shows one squntl drilling at the foot of Nelson's monument in
Trafalgar Square. If these youngsters were jus! |ld enough—well, fewer such billboards aa that
behind them would do.
|tli- .ordered stomachs, catarrhal
[condition., of mucous membranes
jof liver and kidney derangements.
Co-operation of Pntient Nocensary
"But we do say, bere and now,
that the faithful co-operation ot
the patient is absolutely neces-
sary. Use your head and re
strain your desires. Don't over
load your etomach just because
the medicine is beginning to do
you good, and then expect Tanlac
to keep you progressing toward
health. If you have been on
liquid diet, do not expect the
first dose of Tanlao to digest
solid food. Remember this, right
now and forever, no medicine la
the world can continue to save
you from the consequences of im
proper living. Attention to the
diet and keeping the bowels open
ip a matetr of first importance.
"Remember that Tanlac is com-
posed of the most beneficial roots
and herbs known to science. It
Is entirely vegetable and contains
no ingredients to produce violent
or sudden effects. Medicines that
bring immediate stimulation in
variably have an injurious reac
tion that is dangerous to the sys
tem.
"Tanlac is none the less pow
erful in its final results. It
builds, strengthens and tones tho
system as fast as nature can cor
rect conditions, and it causes new
tissues to grow. Any so-called
cure that works quicker than this
will do more harm than good.
They poison and weaken for all
time. You nun I be satisfied to
assist nature and await her slow
but Inevitable action if you would
regain your health. Trying to
force nature is disastrous."
On one occasion Mr. Cooper
was asked whether or jiut Tan
lac would relieve rheumatism,
catarrh, liver and kidney trou
bles and a dozen other ailments,
and in this connection said:
"I am convinced that the
stomach regulates the condition
of the blood and Is the fountain
head of health or disease, as the
case may be. As I have repeat
edly stated in the past, my medi
cine is intended primarily for the
regulation of the stomaah a.nd
the correction of catarrhal in
flammation, but it is no uncom
mon thing for persons who have
used the Tanlac treatment to
come to me and exjilaln that it
has relieved them of rheumatism,
kidney and liver disorders and
many ailments not generally rec
ognized as having their origin in
stomach trouble."
The announcement that this fa^
moua medicine has been placed
on sale in this city has created
widespread Interest and it is a
foregone conclusion that hun
dreds of Tacoma people will call
at the local agencies within the
next few days to obtain It.
Tanlac Is now sold In Tacoma
by French Drug Co., under the
personal direction of a special
Tanlac representative. adv.

Thrift day for everybody
Except Father—
The poor man;
For him It is
Spendthrift day,
Because be is completely,
Flat "busted,"

Of prodigality
In the Thrift Stamp trenches.

And Willie took bis pennies,
And between the two
He has been properly trimmed,
And Is an object of charity
When it comes to car tare,
Cigars and lunches.
The Liberty I_oan
Has taken his paper money,
And the family
His small change,
But he still has plenty of hope,
And he is not complaining.
He would rather
Distribute his money at home
Than let the kaiser take it.
Nevertheless lie maintains

That all the horrors of war
Are not in the trenches.

Where Do the
Letters Go?
Perhaps the submarine war
fare has been much greater than
we of the west have realized.
This Is brought home to us very
strongly in a letter received here
by Mr. and Mrs. James A. Miller
from their son George who hats
been in France for over four
months. During that time his par
ents have written him 14 letters,
only one of which he has received.
Is it the subs, we wonder, or just
the hard hearted censor? But
reed youim Miller's letter and see
for yourself.
Dear Mother and Father: Well,
at last I have received one letter
from you. It Is dated Dec. 29.
That is all the news that I have
had from you except copies of
The Times which you sent. I don't
understand where all your letters
go as 1 believe that you are writ
ing to me often.
Today is a holiday in France
as well as the United States. It Is
George Washington's birthday.
People have come Into the city
from all parts of the country for
a gathering. They come In autos,
push carts, two-wheeled wagons,
bicycles, and all sorts of convey
ances. A holiday also means a big
market day for France, and to
day there is stock lined up in all
the streets, in the gutters and ev
erywhere besides a great deal of
garden truck, dry goods and trin
kets. Every Sunday is a big mar
ket day, too, but 1 never saw so
itiunli stuff gathered together in
my life as there has been here to
day. Most of the market people
are real old, some of them look
ing over a hundred years.
All of the wagons here have
two wheels and are drawn by one
horse. They also ride bicycles
that have no coaster brakes.
We are in a very old city now.
Most of the houses in France are
made of stone and cement and last
very long. Some of them here In
this town are over 100 years old.
Say, by the way, the A. E. F. is
printing a -i.-iu-r of its own over
here now. It is called tbe "Stars
and tbe Stripes." It is a mighty
good paper and we all enjoy it
very much. Everything In It is
true and you can believe it. 1
am going to send you a couple of
copies and hope that you get them
all right.

I have a letter from a friend of
mine who Is some distance from
here up at the front. He says
that they are having a good time
and fine eats. By the way, we
get splendid food here, too. We
have white bread and fresh meat
almost every day.
I see by last night's paper that
Austria wants to talk peace with
the United States. Believe me,
before long they will be begging
for it.
We are going to get the over
seas cap pretty soon, instead of
the campaign hats. They are

O. D. We are getting to be all
Frenchmen now. (Savoy?)
Each one of us has about a

It is hard to tell if we will ever
be sent to the front or not, but
I surely would like to see a little
of it anyway.

BARBER 6IVES RECEIPE
FAR BRAY HAIR
I Tells How to Make a Rome-Made
Gray Hair Remedy. |
Mr. A. E. O'Brien, who has been
a barber in New York City for
many years, made the following
statement: "Gray, st leaked or
faded hair can be immediately
made black, brown or light brown,
whichever shade you desire, by
use of the following remedy that
you can make at home:
Merely get a small box of Or
lex powder at any drug store. It
costs only 2u cents, and no extras
to buy. Dissolve it In one ounce
of water and comb It thru the
hair. Full directions for use
come in each box.
You need not hesitate to use
Orlex, as a $100.00 gold bond
comes in each U>\ guaranteeing
the user that Orlex powder does
not contain silver, lead, zinc, sul
phur, mercury, aniline, coal-tar
products or their derivaties.
"It does not rub off, is not
sticky or gummy and leaves the
hair fluffy. It will make a gray
haired person look twenty years
younger."
