them down. And here a basket
of apples my wife picked express

from Jennie -she thought she
must send something too. You
are doing the news bully as ell of

Best Hook Worm Cure.

Jnst now much is being said
about the hook-worm aud tn e
dreadful calamity 1t is bringing
on humanity by producing lszi
ness. As a joke the hook-worm
story is a top-notcher' but as a
matter OF fact it is a sham and a
delusion. The reason that there
is so much lRziness in t..C world
is because children are taught 20
shun work aud in many casos
they are taught that to be iound
at work is a positive disgrace TO
the family name. This false nc
tion OF honest toll is driving
many Young people TO the devil
and many older ones 70 the aims
house. Every young person
should be taught that tits honor
able TO perform honest labor.
Parents should see TO il that
their children know how 70 do
something and do il well. instead
Of trying TO pound into their
heads the idea that IL they work
they are disgraeed,
The hook-worm theory is a
piece of scientific clap trap bust
ness to cover up a culpabIe error
in raising children.
No boy or girl who hns been
taught 10 work and taught that
work was honorable was ever
accused Of having the hook.worm
disease except TO hook onto .
job and hold on until they win
out. When society puts aside
the contemplate notion that it
is degrading to work the hook
worm will be heard OF no mon
except as n scientific scarecrow.

it is different. The paper goes

She induced him TO leave the
rather exposed ground near the

spot where her husband was
waiting for his victim.

however, he also consented to
appear before the cor oner's jury,
