CONVICT LABOR FOR ROADS

The steps. taken by the Board CT
Supervisors of Rockbridge last
Wednesday for securing Convict
labor to construct maca6am ROADS
in Rockbridge indicate that the
.cod roads sentine nt is growing in
the county, and that the time has
arrived when we may expect prac'
teal results. The experience OF
those counties that have used con-
Wet labor for bodybuilding is that
IN. outcome has been emil entity
satisfactory. The difficulty with
which labor lie obtained and the
high price for the same make per-
manent road construction almost
an impossibility in most of the
counties. But With the aid Of con-
yict labor, which can be secured AT
q nominal cost, good and perma-
aent macadam roads may be built.
Az to the advantage of these roads
30 community or county there
can be no question. The great
saving in the expense Of market
ing produce, the increased facili-
ties for reaching church ano
school, and the reduction OF the
wear and tear of vehicles and
horse feshs, ARE weighty consid'
erstions that enter into this ques'
ton.
The cost of building macadam
roads in Rockbridge can be re-
drced to a minimum because Of
the abundance of material along
every highway in the county. Inc
hest of stone car be secured al
the smallest possible outlay. II
a bonded debt is necessary to SUI
cessfully carry forward this work
we feel sure the people of Rock
bridge will approve such a course
The Board Of Supervisors are to bt
commended for their action las'
Wednesday.

WORK OF UNRULY NEGROES
Three Italians Killed and Several
Wounded in Louisiana,

New Orleans, Dec. '.-Dispatches
from several Northwest Louisiana
points, where three Italians have been
killed and several wounded since Sat
urday night, indicate that the trouble
has not been quite so serious as at
first reported. Instead Of the fighting
occurring between white residents of
Chathamville, La, and vicinity, as for
merly reported, late dispatch indi-
Gates that probably less than a dozen
unruly negroes committed nearly, If
not all the assaults. There is some
ground for suspicion, however, that
the whites, through i'll feeling towards
the Italians for accepting reduced
wages, failed to exercise the restrain
ing hand which they usually keep over
the negroes in that section. A posse
from Shreveport, La, has left for the
scene of the assaults to restore order
and to arrest the negroes.

HUMAN RACE AFFLICTED
WITH QUEER DISEASE
Cooper Says Internal Parasites Cause Much
Suffering Everywhere


Contrary to general belief, the ap-
petite is not greatly increased-it only
becomes irregular There is a general
feeling Of faintness, however, and a
gnawing sensation in the pit of the
stomach.
People afflicted with one of these
parasites are nervous and depressed.
Their chief sensation is one Of Ian
guor, and they tire very easily. Lack
Of energy and ambition affect the body,
and the mind becomes dull and slug
gish. The memory becomes not SO
good, and the eyesight Is generally
poorer. .s
s"The New Discovery, in freeing stom-
ach and bowels Of all Impurities, seems
to be fatal to these great worms, and
almost Immediately expels them from
the system. ! wish to assure anyone
who has the experience just related

that It will as rule mean a speedy.

FIGHT IF NECESSARY
Persians Determined to Defend
Their Constitution.
AT WAR WITH THE THRONE

Parliament Issues Manifesto TO the
World Explaining the Present Crisis
In the Affairs of the Country and
Appealing for Assistance.
Teheran, Dec. On behalf Of thu
nation the Persian parliament has is-
sued a manifesto to the world explain
ing the present constitutional crisis
and appealing for assistance. The
manifesto, which was distributed to
the foreign legations and consulates
here, says:
when the affairs of the empire
had fallen into a hopeless state the
nation saw it's only salvation in con.
stitutional government. The late
shah granted a constitution and the
refgning shah confirmed it, but per-
sons who under the despotic regime
were accustomed to Cypress the peo-
pie misled our young sovereign into
the belief that the constitution was
the cause of the present troubles.
"The nation wants to do nothing
that will disturb peace, but in view Of
the attack of the reactionary members
of the government it will defend the
constitution, it's only hope, to the ut.
most.
by means of this manifesto the Per.
sian nation makes known to all lega-
tions and foreign diplomatic represen-
tatives the actual condition of affairs
and informs them that the sovereign
is violating his covenant with the peo-
pie. 1t makes this announcement to
all the nations of the world, convinced
that they will show brotherly love to
the 100000 Persians and not allow
their rights to be trampled under foot" "
The negotiations between the shah
and parliament have up to the pres
ent time been without result. The
members of the old cabinet are hold
ing council in the palace. The post
Office and all shops in Teheran are
closed and no newspapers are being
published

The following remarkable statement
was recently made by L. T. Cooper
1t concerns the preparation which has
been SO widely discussed throughout
the country during the past year, and
has sold In such enormous quantities
in leading cities:
1T Is now well.known fact that
wherever have introduced my New
Discovery medicine, hundreds Of peo.
pie have brought internal parasites.
or tapeworms, to me. In many cases
these people did not know the nature
OF the parasite. and were consequently
extremely nervous until explained
the matter to them. In some cities so
many have had this experience that
the public generally became alarmed.
Il take this opportunity Of explain
Ing what these creatures are, and what
] have learned about them In the past.
TapewOrms ire much more COM
mon than would be supposed. / ven
ture to say that ten per cent. Of all
chronic stomach trouble, or what is
known as 9 rundown condition, is
caused by them. An individual may
suffer for years with one Of these great
parasites and not be aware ot It,
