A Strange Custom.
How Centuries ago, st. yitus' Dance
Derived Its Name-The Old and New
Way of Treating This Disease.


How Centuries ago, st. vitus' Dance
Derived Its Name-The Old and New
Way of Treating This Disease.
From Republican Trdutler, arkansas CITY, kan
Centuries ago it was believed that by
a pilgrimage to some shrine of st.
Vitus, persons afflicted by irregular
and uncomfortable muscular move
ments could be cured, and that is how
this disease, which usually affects chill
dren between five and fifteen years old !,
came to be called st. Vitus' dance.
The modern way to successfully treat
this disease is within reach of every
household, as is shown in the following
experience of Karl A.. Wagner, the
eleven-year-old son OF George Wagner,
515 9th St., Arkansas City, Kansas.
"Oyer year ago, Gays Mr. Wagner,
''my son began to have twitehing in his
right side. which rapidly became worse.
We called in our family physician and
he told us that Karl had st. yitus'
dance. For over FIVE months he was
under the doctors care and instead of
getting better he continued 10 fail.
"At last he became SO bad that when
sitting ct the table to his meals we had
to strap his right arm to his side to
keep him from knocking the dishes off
the table. His tongue became so
paralyzed that he could talk only in
gutterals. We could not understand
word he said. His right leg hung
limp and could be pushed back and
forth as il hung on a swivel. He be-
came very thin.
1--WE had fully made up cur mind
that the disease could not be cured,
and that if Karl lived any length OF
time, he would become an invalid.
eve had about given up all hope,
when one day lady said to my wife,
if you will give him DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People, they will
cure him, as have daughter, twelve
years old, who has been afflicted in the
same way and the pills cured her.
81 sent at once and bought box of
the pills and used them according to
directions, and before using half OF
them ] noticed change for the better
in his condition, and after using all OF
the pills. | was so we'll pleased with
the result that l bought two more
boxes, and by the time he had used five
boxes, the disease disappeared.
THE cure has been effectual and
permanent, and l feel satisfied that no
other medicine could have effected such
marvellous results We feel rejoiced
over the restoration OF our son, and
cannot help but feel that DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People are the most
remarkable medicine on the market.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

diseased portion Of the ear. There Is only one
way to cure deafness. and that Is by constitu-
tonal remedies Deafness Is caused by an in

be taken out and this tube restored to Its

dollars lost when the harvest is gathered.

A sad accident befell the 1S months old child of Henry Sichards who is a machinest in the employ o Gardiner, Worthen & Goss. MT Richards has been experimenting il making soap combination for tho firm. He had not completed hi: work and when, on Tuesday, he was called to the hospital to do some plumbing, he left a bottle of sodium carbonate where the little one could reach it.
 The little boy found the bottle of carbonate in the absence of his par ents and drank it. As soon as the mother discovered it she called for the family physician, Dr. Filling, but he was not in his office. She gave the child olive oil at intervals and it seemed to get better. The father was called and they repeated the dose of olive oil at intervals.
 By evening the child was playing around and seemed entirely over the effects of drinking the poison. At g o'clock the family retired and when the mother awoke at 12 o'clock the child was dead. The olive oil and carbonate of soda had formed soap in the boys stomach.-Tucson Citi- zen
