IF YOU DON'T WANT TO WORK, HERE'S YOUR GOOD
EXCUSE=THE "LAZY BUGn HAS CAUGHT YOU

lungs From there 1t easily gets into
the intestines, where its worst WORK be-
gins. 1t devours a persons vitality. That
is why people infected with 1t are pale
and listless. Children catch 1t by going
barefooted. 1t starts with the old-fash-
toned ground itch and sometimes holds
on as long as the patient lives. 1t makes
understood children who are developed
neither mentally nor physically, pallid-
faced children who eat dirt and all sorts
of things. 1t is caught mostly in the
country"
Evidences are plentiful that the lazy
bug has reached Atlanta. Numbers of peo-
pie will testify that their cooks have fall
en- prey already. And with the cook in
fected, what is there to prevent the head
of the family from drinking lazy bugs
through his breakfast coffee?
Considerable speculation has arisen as
to whether or not the legislature will
prove immune 1t is said that frequently
the atmosphere of the house grows some
what conducive to the little insect. In
fact, there is only one mortal who APP
pears to be absolutely safe. He is the
baseball fan.
Bug" explained DIR. Paulin. 'it takes
only 10 cents to get cured OF the lazy
bug. Yes, sir only 10 cents. man
can buy him a dimes worth of thymol,
WHICH q SAAhplC pOWuCAs dhN "ASA AAS
has taken it, he will be free of lazy
bugs"
why is it, then, that more people
don't cure themselves?" was asked.
II can't imagine" he answered, "un-
less they prefer not to be cured. Some
folks just love to be lazy, you know"
It is hoped that Surgeon General
Torneys emphatic warning against
the lazy bug will bestir the pub
lie to vigorous and immediate ac-
ton. Else, the country may be-
come a land where people talk always in
their sleep. Chaumeurs will drive their au-
tomobiles with one dull eye half open.
At church, the man who keeps awake
will be as conspicuous as the one who
now dozes off, or rather he would he, ex-
cept for the fact that nobody would be
awake to notice him.
Beware! The lazy bug Is abroad. You'd
better pinch yourself and make sure he
hasn't got you.

URN HOLDS ASHES
OF DAVIS DAUGHTER

COLORADO SPRINGS, Col, July 81.
The ashes OF Mrs. Margaret Howell
jefferson Davis Hayes, in tiny metal
&c urn. were inferred today In a vault
in Evergreen cemetery here. The final
honors over THE Daughter of the Con-
federacy' were as simple as she had
wished, the service followed by the usu-
al Episcopal form, with the singing OF
the two favorite songs of Mrs. Hayes.
The beautiful residence. located on ia
nous Cascade avenue and overlooking
Colorado college campus, was thronged
by friends of the family. Hundreds of
southerners gathered in the neighboring
streets to pay their last honors to the
dead.
Rev. w. c. Hedrick, assistant rector o.
ST. Stephens church, officiated, assisted
by Rev. Henry Rutger Remsen, or
Grace Episcopal church. Mrs. F. E. Tai
iaferro. soprano, and Mrs. G. M. Perry,
contralto, sang the favorites or Mrs
Hayes, abide with Me-" and IL Heard
the Voice Of Jesus Say"
A touching feature of the service was
the carrying of the casket from the
house by young men friends.
Mrs. Hayes was beloved by the young
people of the city, and it was especially
fitting that they would act as bearers.
All the members Of the immediate fam
lily were present. They were ]. Addison
Hayes, the husband; Mrs. Varina Hayes
Webb. Jefferson Davis Hayes, Miss Lucy
Hayes and williams Hayes, children. Dr.
Gerald B. Webb, son-in-law, and the
grandchildren were also present.
The casket was buried In a wealth OF
flowers such as has been rarely seen
here.
Memorial services will be held at the
two Episcopal churches on Sunday, one
In the morning and one in the afternoon.
1t is probable that the ashes, accompanied
by members of the family, will be taken
TO Richmond. Va, in October.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition of the mucous lining Of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, ana when 1t is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to it's
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases out Of ten
are caused by Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an infiamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case Of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls

LAWMAKER ACTUALLY
TALKS OF RESIGNING

WASHINGTON, July 20.-Personalities
INDUCED in by members of the house to-
day became so serious that Representa-
tive Macon( Ark announced his willing
ness to resign II statements affecting him
were proven.
In defending his vote for the appropria-
ton OF $4,000 for the presidents travel
ing expenses, Mr.. Rucker (Col.) referred
to Mr.. Macon, who had opposed the ap-
preparation as reminding him Of ten
derfoot" in Colorado, who could only say
whoa"
Mr.. Macon replied that cynical people
when they are ignored by the newspaper
reporters come to the floor OF the house
and call attention to what they have
done" He insisted he never had objected
TO anything unless he did so intelligently.
With biting sarcasm Mr.. Rucker said
Mr.. Macon. who had proclaimed himself
the watch dog of the treasury" had
cost more money by the delays he had
occasioned thereby than all the other
members.
Mr.. Macon challenged Mr.. Rucker to
substantiate this, saying he would re-
sign his seat II 1t was proven.
"oh, no." went UP a chorus, and Mr..
Macon sat down

which a few years ago was brought prom
Inently to the attention. Of the world In
connection with the Porto Ricans.
When hook worm. referred to In the
medical world as uncinariasis. was de-
clared to be prevalent in Porto Rico. re-
suited In a tendency to Incidence on the
part of the patient. who otherwise appear
ed in usual health, there was, no suggesc
ton that this peculiar parasite infected
people in the United States. Through the
very careful and thorough methods that
have been adopted in the United States
army, both in the selection of recruits
and in the case OF men after their enlist
ment. this disease has been shown to exist
to large extent.
PREVALENCE AMONG SOLDIERS.
This investigation has been progressing
quietly during the last six or seven
months. so that when Surgeon General
Torney makes up his annual report he
will have much data to prove the preva-
lence of the hook worm among soldiers
enlisted from southern states. These re-
cruits. passing through the army depot
at Fort Slocum. New York. were examin-
ed to the number of one hundred and
forty. one hundred and nine of them be-
ing infected with the parasite. West Vir-
ginia. Virginia. North Carolina, South
<A4dOdihd ohO
Tennessee all supplied recruits that were
infected. While the hook worm was so
largely prevalent. in only two instances
in this series of Investigations was the
anaemia sufficiently severe to cause their
rejection. After being treated. all of the
infected soldiers gained In weight and i'm
proved in physical condition generally.
Following this investigation of recruits
1t was discovered that uncinariasis was a
common disease thrc1--hout the southern
states. 1t is estimated by army surgeons
that so per cent of the recruits in the
army today from the rural districts Of
North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia,
Florida, Mississippi, Alabama and Lou
isiana will show hook worm infection.
RECOVERY FROM INFECTION.
Recruits from southern states who have
been in the army several years show a
tendency toward the elimination of the
disease. This is partly accounted for on
the theory that the regular life and nour-
ishing food together with daily enforced
exercise. often result in recovery from
the infection.
1t has been estimated that the campaign
waged by the army against the hook
worm in Porto Rico resulted in saving
more than five thousand lives annually.
The surgeon general may suggest the pos
sibility of instituting some campaign
against the disease in the south, but I'M
der pre- tent conditions It is said but little
can be done except through the agency
of state governments.
