WICHITA GIRL GRADUATE
LOSES HER GOWN

Through a mistake the gFadua-
ton gown of Evelyn % Rorabaugh,
daughter of the president of a large
wholesale dry goods establishment
at Wichita, was shipped to Pratt
along with consignment of gradua-
ton gowns for the school girls of
Pratt. This fact was not learned
until noon of the day Of gradua-
ton. Then there were things doing
a plenty. Miss Evelyn wept, the
dressmaker expressed regrets and
everybody in general was peeved.
But Mr.. Rorabaugh is resourceful
and hit upon the happy thought Of
sending the fastest, motorcyclist or
autoist In the town to Pratt after
the gown. Paul Garst, a motorcyclist
was hired and he began the S6-mile
journey to Pratt with just five hours
In which to make the trip there and
back in time for the graduation.
He failed by nearly an hour and
Miss Rorabaugh wore an old gown.

,.ooNsuanTIoN CuREn scANDALs
Make Big Profit Annually From the
Suffering Public.

over S15,O0O,OO0 annually Il
poured into the Golfers Of those who
! EXPLOIT and advertise fake consump
, ton cures, according to q statement
issued by the National Association
for the study and prevention Of tn.
berculosis; and for this vast sum
the victims receive nothing in return,
but are often permanently injured
land in the majority Of cases cheated
out of the chance for real cure.
Worse still, most Of this money Ia
paid by those who can least afford
lit. The National Association has in
vestigated several hundred so-called
"cures" and treatments" for tuber-
culosis now being advertised through
out the country, and finds that more
than 100000 a year is being
spent in soliciting the patronage Of
the public. On examination 1t has
been found that the great majority
of these scures" contain harmful
and habittforming drugs, such as
morphine, opium and chloroform.
None Of them will cure consumption.
The only cure for this disease that
has ever been discovered is the COM
bination Of fresh air, rest and whole
some food. All the cures that
attempt to destroy the tubercle bacil-
LUIS without these or to stop the prof.
gress Of the disease in some myster-
ious way are branded as frauds and
impositions.
Three classes Of Cures are dis
tinguished by the National Associa-
ton. 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 Depart
ment Of Agriculture has just Issued
a bulletin in which some of}the most
used of these drugs and remedies are
analysed and condemned. The sec
ond class of "cures" includes thei
institutes" of professors" or COM
panies of doctors" who for con-
sideration guarantee to cure cpn-
sumption by some secret method OF
which they are the sole proprietors. 8
There are nearly one hundred and !
'ifty of these institute frauds in the {
United States, cheating the people
tut of millions of dollars annually.
N the third class of "cures" are \
placed number of homemade
which either through ig- b
torrance or superstition have been r
Idvanced as to treatments for .tu-
Some of these are
MONS, lemons. rattlesnake poison,
oal dust, lime dust, pigs blood, dog

ohol. These viii not lcure con- :
