VICTIMS Of MILLIONS

Over $15,0oo,000 is annually poured
and advertise fake consumption cures
according to statement issued by
study and Prevention of tuberculosis;
and for this vast sum the victims
receive nothing in return, but are Of
ten permanently injured and in the
majority of cases cheated out of the
chance for q real cure. Worse still,
most Of this money Is paid by those
who can least afford it: "
The National Association has in
vestigated several hundred so-called
''cures" and Treatments" TO tuber-
culosis now being advertised rthroug-
out the country, and, finds that more
than 100000 year is being spent
in soliciting the patronage of the pub
lie. On examination, it has been
found that the great majority of
these. cures contain harmful and
habit-forming drugs; such as m5rph-
Inc, opium and chlorofor1n.:c None of
them will cure consumption. The
only cure for this disease that has
ever been discovered is the ,combina-
ton Of fresh air rest and wholesome
food. All Of the cures that attempt
to destroy the tubercle bacillus with
out these or: to stop the progress of
the disease in some mysterious way
are branded as frauds and IMPOSE
tons. -,
Three classes of cures are dfstin-
guished by the National Association.
In the first class are Included devices
and drugs which can be bought for
any sum ranging from ten cents to
five dollars at drug store. The
United States Department of Agricul
ture has just issued a, bulletin in
which some OF the most used of these
drugs and remedies are analysed and
condemned. The second class of
"cures" includes the institutes"
professors or companies of "dOc-
tors" who for a consideration guar
antee to cure consumption by some
secret method of which they are the
sole proprietoors. There are nearly
one hundred and fifty of these insti-
tute frauds in the United States,
cheating the people out of millions
of dollars annually.
In the third class of "cures" are
placed number: of homemade rem
edies, which either through ignorance
or superstition have been advanced
as treatments for tuberculosis Some
of these are, onions, lemons. rattle
snake, poison, coal dust, lime dust,
pigs blood, dog oil. milk "strippings,"
and even alcohol. These will not cure

A LITTLE LATE
IN STARTING
BUT FAlRMoNT BOTTLE FACTORY
EXPECTS ONE OF THE BEST
FIRES IN ITS HISTORY.

The Fairmont Bottle factory is
ready for operation but the fires will
not be lighted until late this season.
The big concerns that take over the
product Of the local plant are slow in
sending in their orders. The Borden
Milk Company, Of New York, one Of
the largest milk concerns in the world,
has always been the heaviest among
the concerns that get their bottle sup.
ply here. The reason that the Bor.;
den people have not sent in orders
yet is that they are undecided as to
what kind OF cap they will use for
their bottles. They claim that the
common way OF using paper that flts
down in the top OF the milk bottle is
unsanitary and SO far they have not
found satisfactory metal cap. The
Tactic acid causes the metal caps mat
they have tried to rust The local fac
tory will not start for. couple OF
weeks yet. While the orders are com.
ingein late the bottle company expects
one of the best fires in It's history.

FRUIT VENDOR SAILS.
FOR SUNNY ITALY AND HIS
CREDITORS ARE SORRY.
Photo BY American Press As.ssoscIatlon.

There was some commotion among
the Italians this morning when It was
reported that January Demarco, re.
tail fruit vendor that did business at
the corner OF Jefferson and Main
streets. had left the city for Italy TAX.
ing with him five thousand dollars.
There was a scramble when 1t was
found out that he had gone to see
who could get the first attachment
to close up the place of business and
to get what money there was in the
goods that were In the place OF Bust;
ness. There seemed to be plenty or
bills against Demarco. The first at!
tachment was taken out by Grafton
firm and the second was taken out by
Tom Datllo, of this city.
1t is said that Demarco told the p.o-
pie here that he was going to Webster
Springs for couple OF weeks 10 see
II he could not improve his health.
The people here thought that he was
drinking sulphur water but they
learned that he was not. Using Tom
Datilo's expression "He is now on his
way to the land of maccaroni."
Demarco was considered one OF the
best of the retail fruit men in the city.
1t was known that he was careful in
his business transactions. He was a
man of temperate habits and for these
reasons he had good credit among all
of the wholesale men of the city.

none Of the family were injured or

yet the force of the shock was such
that brick, mortar and timber were
thrown Into the Black residence,
breaking every window pane on tAat
side Of the house, in some Instances
tearing the window frames loose. Mrs.
