RENOWNED MAN VISITS ATLANTA L. T. Cooper, Noted Sci entist and Philanthropist Gives Large Part of In come Each Year to Charity Not in recent years, perhaps, has the coming of any public character aroused such wide spread interest as did the visit of L. T. Cooper, the millionaire phi lanthropist, to Atlanta recently. Mr. Cooper is described as one of America’s foremost leaders of advanced thought, and sprang in to fame and fourtune through his new health theories based on what is known as the Tanlac treatment He is a man of rare talents, magnetic force and charm of manner. He never ceas es to surprise you with the infi nite variety of his knowledge, and its absolute correctness and thoroughness. In several of the larger cities, especially through out the south, he has done a great deal of relief work among the poor. Mr. Cooper is a firm believer in practical philanthropy, and his relief work in Atlanta is al ready familiar to the charity workers of that city. During his recent visit there he distribu ted at the Piedmont Hotel, under the personal direction of leading charity workers, eleven hundred ready-made dresses of excellent quality to the poor women and children. Ladies prominent in Atlanta social life and many prominent citizens were on hand early in the afternoon to assist in co-operating with Mr. Cooper in this worthy cause. A few weeks previous to this he performed a similar service in Birmingham and donated one thousand dresses to the poor in that city. Similar donations were also made in Nashville, Chatta nooga and Knoxville. And his establishment of the now famous “free bread line" in Lousville during the past winter, where he distributed fifty thousand loaves of bread absolutely free and with out question to those in want, proved a revelation to charity workers there. In fact, in practi cally every city Mr. Cooper has visited, he has always shown his great sympathy for the poor and unfortunate by performing: some unique act of charity. Mr. Cooper contends that nine tenths of the diseases and ill health of the present-day Amer ican is due to faulty digestion and improper assimilation of the food which finally produces a stuffed up condition of the vital organs. It has been said that Tanlac, his celebrated medicine which is now accomplishing such remark able results throughout the coun try, not only quickly overcomes all catarrhal inflamation of the mucous membrane, but acts di rectly in the correction of stom ach, liver, kidney and intestinal disorders. Tanlac has been so convincingly proven by the thousands upon thousands who have endorsed it, is also a reconstructive tonic of great power, and has been known to entirely relieve the most obsti nate cases of rheumatism and blood disorders, in a very short time. It is, indeed, doubtful, if any thing ever placed on the market in the way of a medicine has sprung into such popular favor in so short a time. People every where have been quick to recog nize its wonderful merit. The demand for it has been nothing short of phenominal. In Atlanta, where Tanlac was placed on sale only about a month ago over 9,000 bottles have been sold which according to the Jacobs Pharmacy Cos., of that city, has established anew record and is unprecedented in the history of the drug business of Atlanta. In the city Knoxville the Kuhl man-Chambliss Cos., sold and dis tributed 45,326 bottles since the 27th day of February 1915. In Lousville, Ky., the Tavlor-Isaacs Drug Cos., who operate eight re tail stores in that city, sold 32,000 bottles in less than 90 days. Through the Nashville office alone nearly 100,000 bottles have been sold in six months time. The de mand for Tanlac in Birmingham, Chattanooga and fact, every where it has been introduced, has likewise been phenominal, and the demaad for it is constant ly increasing. A total of over one million bottles of the medi cine have been sold in nine month’s time, and it is without a doubt, the most widely talked medicine in the world to-day. When asked to explain this re cord breaking demand for Tanlac, Mr. G. F. Willis, Mr. Cooper’s Southern representative said: ‘‘There can be only one possible explanation and it can be told in one word ‘merit’. That tells the whole story. No preparation, no matter how extensively adver tised, can possibly meet with such phenominal success, unless it possessed extraordinary cura tive powers.” Thousands upon thousands are testifying daily that they have been relieved of disease after years of suffering by its use. Tanlac is sold in Jackson ex clusively by Slaton Drug Cos. adv. ROCKY HILL Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Good rum, of Union Ridge, spent Sun day with Mr. and Mrs. Joe Smith. Mrs. A. J.

Mr. Baston says this is the cheapest crop he ever made, never hired a day’s work until he began to harvest. He will have to spend about S4OO harvesting and getting his crop ready for market. I don’t believe, includ ing the rent on his land, labor and fertilizer, that these peanuts have cost him more than 30c per bushel and he is leaving on the ground on the one hundred acres that he had in peanuts enough waste to fatten one hundred head of hogs. Mr. Baston will pay me every cent he owes me out of his pea nut crop, will have enough mon ey to run on another year and enough left to buy two or three Ford cars if he wants them. Last year he could not pay his taxes until way in the spring. I failed to mention that he will have thousand or fifteen hundred dollars worth of peanut hay, which is equal, or perhaps better, than alfalfa. I believe that if we planted our entire crop in peanuts and saved the hay properly and let the hogs gather the peanuts, that we would make more money with less ex pense than we could make in this one-crop system of cotton. I have been in correspondence with one of the largest packing houses in the country, and they write me that it is impossible to have an over-production of pea nut oil. If our people would turn their attention to hogs, peanuts, corn, oats and work fifty-two weeks in the year, in three years the banks in this country would have to seek other sources to let their money out. If I can be of any service to you, do not hesitate to call on me. I am, Yours very truly, H. M. Sessions. TRY IT!
