QUEER DISEASE
in CALIFORNIA
MANY HERE AFFLICTED WITH
ODOAILMENT, SAYS MUNY0N.
Grewsomo Creatures Very Common in
This State, Finds Expert on
Special Diseases.

Many California people are afflicted |
with queer disease, according to a
statement yesterday by Professor
James M. Munyon. He made the fol
lowing remarkable and rather grew
some statement: MANY persons who
came to my headquarters at The Owl
Drug company, San Francisco, think
they are suffering from simple stom-
ach trouble, when in reality they are
the victims of an entirely different
disease-that Of tape worm. These
tape worms are huge internal para
sites, which locate in the upper bowel
and consume large percentage of the
nutriment in undigested food. They
sometimes grow to length of forty
to sixty feet. One may have a tape
worm for years and never known the
cause of his or her chronic i'll health.
persons who are suffering from
one of these creatures become nerv-
GUS, weak and irritable, and tire at
the least exertion. The tape worms
rob one of ambition and vitality and
strength, but they are rarely fatal.
"The victim of this disease is apt to
believe that he is suffering from
chronic stomach trouble, and doctors
tor years without relief. This is not
the fault of the physicians he con-
suits, for there is no absolute diagnosis
that will tell positively that one is not
victim of tape worm.
"The most common symptom of this
trouble is an abnormal appetite. At
times the person is ravenously hungry
end 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 nausea. He cannot sleep
at night and often thinks he is suffer
ing from nervous prostration.
81 have a treatment which has had
wonderful success in eliminating these
great creatures from the system. In
the course of its regular action in aid
ing digestion, and Kidding the blood
kidneys and liver of impurities, it has
proven fatal to these great worms. II
one has a tape worm, this treatment
will, in nine cases out of ten, stupefy
and pass it away, but if not, the treat
ment will rebuild the rundown person
who is probably suffering from stomach
trouble and a general anaemic condi
ton. My doctors report marvellous sue
cess here with this treatment. Full,
dozen persons have passed thes
worms, but they are naturally reticen
about discussing them, and of cours
we cannot violate their confidence b,
giving their names to the public.''

Northwestern Land Show.

The Northwestern Land Products
show, under the auspices of the North
western Development league, will take
place from December 18th to 23rd, and
will be held in the st. Paul Audi
forum, one of the finest buildings of
its kind in the country.
The dates were decided upon after
advice had been received from the vari-
Gus western states interested and the
dates of state fairs and other exposi-
tions had been considered. The dates
selected will give those who wish to ex-
hibt in Chicago, an opportunity to
bring their exhibits to st. Paul for the
Northwestern Land Products show, as
the Chicago Land exposition closes De-
cember 9th.
The entire enterprise has but one
object in view, according to officials
of the league, and that object is to aid
in the development of Oregon, Wash
lngton, Montana, Idaho, North Dakota,
South Dakota, Minnesota and Alaska.
The Northwestern Land Products ex-
hibit will be something more than a
mere land show, and will include not
only products, but resources of the
country.
Inc NOILnWeSIeIn DtNtlOpucub
league is defined by its officers as an
educational movement seeking to
make people acquainted with the facts
about the fertile northwest.
1t is planned to make the exhibit an
annual affair to be held in subsequent
years in various cities of the northwest
which will serve to stimulate activity
since the exhibit, being common prop
erty of the states mentioned, will be
enthusiastically pushed by all.
Mr.. w. A. Campbell, secretary Of the
Northwestern Development league and
formerly manager of publicity for the
Omaha Chamber of Commerce, has beer
appointed general manager of the show
and is now actively at work to secur,
exhibits and entertainment features.
AS the Northwestern Development
league is composed of commercial club
of all the states interested, the league
officers will communicate with thes'
bodies, advising them in reference Il
