QUEER DISEASE IS
IN UNITED STATES
Many Here Afflicted With 0dd
AiIment, Says Prof.
Munyon.
GREWSOME CREATURES
VERY COMMON,
FINDS EXPERT.

Many people in the United States are
afflicted with a queer disease, according
to a statement yesterday by Professor
James M. Munyon. He made the follow
ing remarkable and rather grewsome
statement:
MANY persons who come and write to
my h nsa;lgaa at SD and Jefferson
suffering from a simple stomach trouble,
when in reality they are the victims of
an entirely different disease that of
internal parasites which locate in the
upper bowel and consume q larpe per-
centage of the nutriment in undigested
food. They sometimes grow to a length
tape worm for years and never. know
the cause OF his or her Ill health.
Persons who are suffering from one
of these creatures become nervous, weak
and irritable, and tire at the least ex-
ertton. The tape worms rob one Of am
bition and vitality and strength, but they
are rarely fatal.
1.-THE victim Of this disease is apt to
believe that he is suffering from chronic
stomach trouble, and doctors for years
without relief. This is not the fault of
the physicians he consults, for there Is
no absolute diagnosis that will tell posi-
lively that one is not victim Of tape
worm.
1.-The most common symptom of this
trouble is an abnormal appetite. AT
times the person is ravenously hungry
and cannot get enough to eat. At other
times the very sight of food is loathsome.
There is a gnawing, faint sensation at
the pit of the stomach, and the victim
has headaches, fits of dizziness and nau-
sea. He cannot sleep at night and often
thinks he is suffering from nervous pros
tration.

wonderful success in eliminating these
great creatures from the system. In the
course of its regular action in aiding
digestion. and Kidding the blood, kidneys
and liver of impurities 1t has proven fatal
to these great worms. If one has tape
worm, this treatment will, In nine cases
out of ten, stupefy and pass 1t away. but
if not, the treatment will rebuild the
rundown person, who is probably suffer-
ing from stomach trouble and general
anaemic condition. My doctors report
marvellous success here with this treat
ment. Fully a dozen persons have passed
these worms, but they are naturally reti-
cent about discussing them, and OF course

SIGN SEEN MANY MILES,.

What is presumably the largest
sign in the state of Washington was
recently constructed on the east
bank of the Columbia river just
above the town of Beverly. 1t ad
vertises the location of new orchards,
the new irrigation district being
opened to settlement. From the win
dows of passing trains 1t catches the
eye of the traveller and may be cas-
lily seen for distance OF several
miles. The sign is nearly quarter
of mile long, the letters are 40 fee
wide and 100 feet high.

FIGHT FOR FAMILY SKELETON

The heirs of family named Fleu
rot, living near Remiremont, France,
are fighting a curious case over a
skeleton which has been for many
years a treasure in the family.
The skeleton belonged to a lancer
of abnormal height, who sold his body
to the Fleurot family on condition
that his skeleton should be kept after
death. The inheritance was divided
some years ago and two cousins are
now fighting for the possession Of the
lancer's skeleton.

represent type of citizenship and
intelligence equal to the representa-
tives of the Asiatic country. Ac-
quaintance with these little gentle
men from the Orient prompts many
people to believe that the revolution
airy movement in China, and the
granting of the demands for a con-
stitution, signify that there is strong
hope to believe that even China may
be in time redeemed, and become 4

1t may be that President Taft sur
prised the country by his talk before
the Hamilton club in Chicago, In
which he limited at the possibility of
a Republican defeat in 1912. 1t has
been suggested that Mr.. Taft was not

that the expression OF any other view
of the present situation would have
led to popular belief that the Presi-
dent was simply whistling to keep
up his courage.

geological survey is showing an in
terest in the personal work done by
Senator Charles Curtis, who, it is
learned, has been spending consider
able time during the last few weeks
in southern Kansas, and is at present
dividing his time between the west
ern, northern and southwestern por-
tions of the state. 1t is known here
that the senator Is looking into the
artesian and Underfow conditions
that exist, and from meager infor-
nation that has been received here,
it Is more than likely that the activ-
tiles of the senator in this direction
will result in an irrigation movement
of some consequence. The geological
survey Is aware of the underfow sit
uation in parts of Kansas, and the
earnest efforts being made by Senator
Curtis, looking to the use of the vol
ume of water being used for irriga-
ton purposes will likely bear fruit.

work carried on from a special rail-

the nine northwest states, charged
with the duty of explaining to the
people the riches Of their localities
for agricultural purposes, seems as
sured to prove successful. The train
will not only carry the governors,
congressman and senator's, who will
meet and address the people along
the route, but the actual products Of
the regions interested will be exhib-
tied on the train. 1t is not at all
that these illustrious repre-

attract the multitudes to their train
in much the same manner as the
