Quite scare and not little curios-
ity prevails in this part of the country,
occasioned by the finding Of worms in
heads of cabbage. The worms are from
nine to eighteen inches in length and
are said to be very poisonous and that
death results in few hours after eat
ing Of cabbage in which they have been
cooked. w. o. Benway brought to the
Patriot Office on Tuesday one of these
worms in bottle. 1t is nine inches
long, a little larger than horse hair,
pink in color aud closely resembles a
tiny fish worm. Under a magnifying
glass it's head is closely akin to snake.
Mr.. Benway tells us that when the
worm is placed in cold water it shows
fight, and when taken out of the bottle
in which it has lived for FIVE week with
out food or drink, it becomes almost
rigid and after time coils up like a
snake. Various ideas have been adj
vanced in regard to it, some saying it is
a gordius or hair worm and perfectly
harmless, while othersi say it is rank
poison. Nevertheless it has caused
quite degree of excitement and many
lovers of cabbage would not accept cab
bage as a gift. Here is chance for
some scientifically inclined person to
make an experiment. Mr.. Benway's
specimen may be seen at the Patriot
Office. Mrs. Isaac Downward and Mrs.
Tul are also in possession of these
worms which they found in cabbage.

COSTS NOTHING UNLESS CURED
A Fair Offer Made by Druggist GOkay
to All Sufferers from Catanh.

Druggist GolSay is selling Hyomei
on a plan that has caused considerable
talk amongst his customers.
The plan is different from that fol
lowed by other remedies, but the rem
edy itself is different also. This treat
meut for the cure of catarrh has such
an unusual record of cures to its credit
that Druggist Golsy offers to refund
the money if it does not give the de-
sired benefit. This is certainly one of
the fairest offers that can be made and
any one who has catsrrh and does not
take advantage oft is doing himself
or herself an injustice.
Extra bottles Of hyomei can be pro-
cured for use with the inhaler at 50c.
Do not suffer any longer with tick
ling, smarting, burning eye-watering
troubles that afflict those who have
catarrh. Hyomei will cure you, but if
you:should not find it adapted to your
case, Druggist Gokay will return your
money.
