Convict, Shot While
Escaping, Surrenders
After ! Weeks Liberty

MOULTRIE, Ga, Oct 1S.-Getty
Reid, a negro convict, who fled from
the Cook county changing and was
shot four times, returned to the
stockade yesterday and surrendered
after two weeks freedom. He said
his conscience troubled him because
he hadn't treated the warden right,
who had been kind to him.
That the negro, whose serious
wound received no medical attention,
managed to survive is amazing, &C
cording to physicians. Three bullSts
struck Reid in the back and one pen
etrated his neck.
That night it began raining and
rained steadily for nearly three days.
Reid was out in the downpour. The
only food he had was peanuts and
sweet potatoes which he gathered
raw in the fields

NEW METHOD
HEALS RUPTURE
Kansas City Doctors DisCoV-
cry Makes Truss or 0per-
alton Unnecessary

Kansas City, Mo.-(SpeciaL)-A
new discovery, which, experts agree,
has no equal for curative effects in
all rupture cases, is the latest ac-
complishment of DIR. Andrews, the
well-known Hernia specialist of this
city. The extraordinary success of
this new method proves that it holds
and heals a rupture. 1t weighs only
a few ounces. Has no hard, goug-
ing pads, no elastic belt. no leg
straps, no steel bands, and is as
comfortable as a light garment. 1t
has enabled hundreds of persons
to throw away trusses and declare
their rupture absolutely healed.
Many of these had serious double
ruptures, from which they had suf-
fered for years. 1t is DR.. Andrews
ambition to have every ruptured per
son enjoy the quick relief, comfort
and healing power of his discovery,
and he will send it on free trial TO
any reader of The Tri-We ekly Jour
nal who writes him at his office,
1211 Koch Bldg. Kansas City. Mo.

borhood TO whom he can refer. If
