Claims Cancer Cure
With Rays of Sun

New York, March 25.-That an cpl
thelioma, which, Interpreted, is a skin
cancer, can be cured by the applica-
um OF sunlight through an ordinary
mugndyug glass is the positive asser-
ton OF pr II " Seelye in the New

Dr. Seelye ayers mat cases Of un-
doubted malignant growths which had
resisted every known kind of local
treatment including the X-ray and ra-
dium carnations" by cancer special

burning glass method, and were APP
pareutly cured within six weeks: the
amazing result taking place IN most
cases without the healed surface

which has certainly the merit OF
,hcdpness and universally. is as fol-

BLACK HAND AFTER HIM.
Demand Large Sum From Italian Con-
tractor, Who Wont Give Up.

Mr.. William Rossi, the well known
railroad and coke oven contractor of
the Elkhorn coal field, was here sew
eral days ago from North Fork, w.
Va. Mr.. Rossi, has through good
business judgment and industry ac-
cumulated quite n nice little fortune
during his stay in the states, which
it seems has become the envy of some
of his fellow countrymen, and as
result he is disposing of his holdings
in this country preparatory to return
ing to his old home in northern Italy.
Recently Mr.. Rossi received note
from the "Blackhand" organization in
the coal field demanding that he place
$lOO at certain point, or else for
felt his life. This first he did. Later
a demand was made on him for $4 1000,
which he was to deliver when GER
tain word was spoken to him while
passing, at midnight, through the
railroad yards at East Vivian. This
request he refused to comply with;
and believing that he will be safer
from molestation in his old home in
northern Italy, is making preparations
to return there.
1t seems n pity that such men as
William Rossi should be compelled to
seek safety for his life in flight from
our shores, simply because his life
has been threatened by gang of cut
throats and murderers, which the
immigration laws of our country per-
nit to land here, almost without mo-
lestation from Sicily, or, in other
words southern Italy. William Rossi,
as citizen, has been a model one,
and numbers his friends according to
the many thousands who know him
throughout this vast region. He is q
man of high ideals and unblemished
character, and his loss will be a dis
tinct one to the citizenship of this
great section.
Here's hoping that the loss of this
good man to our country will stimu.

Road Work In Burkcs Garden.

Editor News:-
saw in the paper last week "Every
man must help in the work for good
roads,. We want good roads. see
they have included the good women of
the county in the good roads work
this time.
think we missed it in the first
bond issue by not having the good
women mixed with the work; for
some one has failed to do their duty
as | see it. think we have been mis-
treated by the road force in regard to
repairing the road in Burkcs Garden.
Listen! In making the road through
the little town as we call it, the
bitches were not opened until the
road was macadamized, and said to
be finished. Then the bitches were
opened and the dirt thrown against
our fences. AS the work went on
there was no halt made in regard to
the good people living along the high
way. When they came to the church
the dirt was thrown accordingly, and
it looks ugly. We should have more
respect for the house of God. We
had about got over the ditch affair,
and tried to get in and out over the
bitches to our homes MS best we could,
so few days ago n crew of men,
claiming to be working for the coun-
ty, recleancd the bitches and threw
the dirt as at first, making this bur
den greater on us. Our little town
looks like the Mexican army had
passed through and done something
for spite. / know if the good women
had been mixed with this affair, they
would not have done any cooking for
crew like this. ! think that those
who have the power over the roads
should see to it that those living
along the highways get their rights.

UNNATURAL HISTORY LESSON
The Vampire.

Have you ever seen Vampire?
1t is a huge, blood sucking bat of
the tropic forest.
1t hangs from a swaying limb or
vine, by teeth or toes, or tip of wing,
looking like bundle of leaves or the
withered flowers.
Then when some bird or beast of
the jungle passes beneath the YAM
pire drops upon its prey. 1t clings to
Its victim by lips and teeth, by toe
and wing, the most desperate creature
that exists, and it never ceases to suck
the life blood till its supporter weak
ems and dies.
1t can neither be brushed nor shak-
en- off. No other animal will come
to the rescue of the stricken one for
fear it may in turn become a victim
THE only chance of release lies in
crushing the thing.
saw Vampire, once, in captivity.
know where there is another work
ing at its trade.
1t has fastened itself upon the
state in which we live, and is suck
ing the life-blood of the people. By
merciless wing, by mailed toes. by
cruel teeth, by bloody lip it clings
and strong men seem afraid to in
terfer. 1t feeds upon our first born,
as well as our babes; it takes its toll
from our best families as we'll as from
our worst; it is no respector of race
or caste, or color. 1t simply clings
and feeds.
Men call it the Liquor Traffic; God
knows it is blood-sucking Vampire
There is but one way to cruch it.

Logical Solution of II Statewide
Problem.


The farmer knowing that il is dctri-
mental to his family, and through his
employees, to his business, has exer-
cised his right of franchise, and, in
most instances has voted the nuisance
out.
Tho refined and educated class in
the city, knowing the saloon to be n
bad neighbor, and furnishing unsafe
and undesirable environment, has long
since exercised its right of appeal and
has induced the judges to throw the
saloon out of the residential sections.
And, now, there rises up the negro,
led by the more enlightened of his
race, and cries out, that if the saloon
is bad thingforn white ncighborhood.
where education, morality and refine
ment have been inbred for generations
what must be its effects on the colorcd
community, where il nourshcs MS the
green bay tree? And he exercises
his right of petition, (thc only right
he has) and bcgs that the judges shall
remove this nuisance from the midst
of his people,.
Granting, as we do without n dis
senting voice, that the negro is the
weaker man, and believing that the
weak should have protection from the
strong, justice demands that the plea
OF the black man shall be heard.
What then shall we do with the sa-
loon, this institution that no man
wants for his ncighbor; this unsafe
thing that dcbauches alike the child
oil the rich and thepoor; this enemy of
the employer, the emL.oyec and the
unemployed?
IL has been outlawcd from the vi
cinity of school house, church and pub
lie play ground; the country will no
longer support il; the fine residence
districts will no longer tolerate it.
and the poor and the lowly have beg
ged to be relieved of its presence.
What shall we do with the saloon?
Mr.. Merchant, do you want thriv
ing grog-shop on each side of your
Iine store? No, it would injurc your
sales and lower the standard of YOUR
patronage.
Mr.. Manufacturer, do you desire n
saloon shall be opened across the
street from your hourishing factory?
No, it would be damage both to the
quality and quantity of your output.
Mr.. Owner of Shipping Interests, do
you want this business down by your
whnrves, docks and warehouses No.
it would be dctrimcnt to your bust
ness by land and sen.
And so it goes. Nobody wants the
saloon for n neighbor, not even the
man whose millions make the beer
(and whose millions the beer drinkers
made), for he moves into high toned
neighborhoods and leaves the victims
of his trade to wrestle with it's raw
ages.
What then shall we do with this
thing that nobody wants, save those
who are its slaves? What haven is
open to public nuisance and COM
mon enemy?
Voters, in view of the facts in the
case, there is but one sensible thing
to do with the saloon in Virginia, and
that is to outlaw it from the bounds
of the state by your free and indepen-
dent ballot.-Helen Hewitt Green, in
Norfolk-Ledger Dispatch.
