QUEER DISEASE IS
IN UNITED STATES
Many Here Afflicted With Odd

Munyon.
GREWS0ME CREATURES
VERY COMMON,
FINDS EXPERT.

Many people in the United States are
atmcted with a queer disease. according
James NJ. Munyon. He made the follc "
ing remarkable and rather grewsome
statement:
Many persons who come and write to
my headquarters at SD and jefferson
SITS, Philadelphia, Pa, think they are
suffering from a simple stomach trouble,
when IN reality they are the victims OF
an entirely different disease-that of
tape worm. These tabe worms are huge

upper bowel and consume a large per-
SSenlage OF the nutriment in undigested

OF forty 10 sixty feet. One may have a
tape worm for years and never know
the cause of his or her i'll health.
Persons who are suffering from one
OF these creatures become nervous, weak
and irritable, and tire at the least ex-
ertion The tape worms rob one of am
bltion and vitality and strength, but they
are rarely fatal.
'"The victim of this disease is ant 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 viii tell posi-
lively that one is not victim of tape

THE most common symptom of this
trouble is an abnormal appetite. At
times the person is ravenously hungry

it is estimated t.1s the advance in

has also come in equal measure to our

As the red comes into the apples cheek.
There's dappling shade on the orchard
