THEKUA1HC9 Lexington, S. C. ?m???aa???jf n i???g? i ? Recent Grewsome Ex Man Is Sample Such. ^ f" - V During L. T. Cooper's recent visit to Chicago, where his new preparation and theory created the usual sensation, many hundreds of people brought enormous internal parasites to the vrmne' man whir?h had left the SVStem after taking his medicine. Among these people was Mr. Emil Winkler, who brought to Cooper a tapeworm that proved to be over ninety feet in length. Mr. Winkler, who resides at 182 East Ohio Street, Chicago, had this to say of his experience: "For five years I have been more or less cpmplaining. I have had severe headaches, and any food that I would eat would nauseate me. I would have bad dreams almost every night; dizzy spells would compel me to quit work Black spots would appear before my eyes when stooping over and rising quickly. I would feel tired most of the time; in fact, I had no life in me to speak of for the last five years. I tried various treatments, and one Cures Blood. Skin Diseases, Cancer.

( A special to the Charlotte Observer 4 ; from Marion, N. C., .under date of 2 Feb. 16, says. Deputy Sheriff Cox has just reached ^ herewith fourteen slavs, who are ^ charged with a shocking murder. : Fifteen of these foreigners came to { camp number 5 on the South and i ! Western Railroad a year ago and J i have been at work there ever since. f According to the officer's story the 4 men quarrelled among themselves J Thursday, the brunt of the war of $ words falling upon the member of the 4 little colony who had been serving as its cook. The. fourteen fell upon the ^ unfortunate cook that night, and se- 4 curing him with ropes, they led him ^ to a spot in the forest, a mile from <s the camp. There they bound the g cook hand and foot, and placing him ^ in an upright posture against the end ( j of a fill the crowd stepped off a few 4 i paces and began shooting, U9ing the J j cook as a target. The unfortunate * man was riddled with bullets. ^ A man may be as good as his word ( and still not a saint. A Sometimes a wise man poses as a , fool for financial troubles. f < (LAND, S.
