MANY ARE HELPED.

Mr.. Cash, who is now introducing
his preparations at the Mcpherson
drug store where he expects to be
only this week, is probably one of
the busiest men in Paducah. Crowds
are constantly calling to see him re-
garding his much-talked Of remedies.
When interviewed a few moments
today and questioned as to the re-
markable demonstrations he made in
removing deafness in a few minutes,
he said: "Some Of the work accom-
plished' by my preparations which
have so astonished the people and
caused much comment, has been
done in the past in opera houses and
public halls where hundreds have
witnessed these demonstrations
Much of the so-called deafness is
caused by catarrhal and other condi-
tons for which my preparations af-
ford relief In very short time. The
work as we'll as a like demonstration
in causing rheumatic invahds to
walk, has furnished the basis for the
reports the leading papers have Civ

The preparations which have
brought me greatest success is for
the removal of all stomach trouble
and the many disorders which follow
thereafter. There Is peculiar and
not well known cause Of much of the
stomach troubles extant. My demon

Iple." The success of these prepare
tons as reported by all who have
used them. show the majority of
cases to be among those having
stomach troubles. but the medicines
seem to be remarkably successful in
cases of rheumatism. Mr.. Cash claims
that the stomach is Indirectly respon-
sible for many diseases, prominent
among which is rheumatism. The
steady throng OF visitors to see Mr..
Cash at the drug store ana the
amount of preparations bein sold,
shows that the interest is very gen
eral and many suffering people are
selling the opportunity of seeing
him while here. Mr.. Cash can only
remain in the city this week as he is
en- route to New Orleans.
