BLAMES FACTORIES
Says Industrial Conditions
Cause More Deaths in South
Than Ho0kWorm

CHICAGO, Jan. 1s.-The hook worm Is
much abused, according to Prof. c. E. A.
winslow, of the Massachusetts Institute
of Technology. Lecturing on Principles
of Sanitary Science" yesterday in Kent
theatre, University of Chicago, the east
ern scientist said:
Uncomfortable conditions in the south
ern factories are causing more deaths
than the hook worm. Children under the
legal age are working IL hours day in
cotton factories. The hook worm is men
toned when the blame really should fall
ON industrial conditions
"I do not say the hook worm is not an
evil that has to be combatted. But while
we are on the subject of deaths in the
south why not mention this other para
site?"
Professor Winslow named the habit of
walking barefoot as conducive to the
hook worm disease. .s'

have spells at night, when my right
side would get numb and tingle like
thousand needles were pricking my
flesh. At times could hardly put my
tongue out of my mouth and my right
eye and ear were affected.
The doctors told me I was liable 10
become paralyzed at any time, so l was
in constant dread. I took medicine of
various doctors and no end of patent
medicines-all to no good.
The doctors told me to quit using
tea, but 1 thought could not live with
