VOL XXV. 1 II wol Ground Itch the Cause and Remedy Provided COST OF TREATMENT FREE An impression is Abroad That Every One is Suffering From Hook Worm To Disapprove this Consult Dr How" *11 at any of his Regular Appointments . and he Will Tell You Whether or not You Have Hook Worm. Hook-worm disease is caused by a small, round worm which measures about half an inch in length and has the thickness of an ordinary pin. It enters the body in a stage at which'it is invisible to the naked eye usually through the skin, thereby producing ground itch, and make! its way to the intestines, and be comes full grown. The parasite then feeds upon the blood of the host, causing bleeding in the intestine, and has poisons which got into the system and may destroy the blood of the person. E*ch hookworm lives from 10 to 15 years after entering the body. As might have been inferred outside the body they live in the soil And in turn they get into the soil only through soil contamination with the excreta oi a human being. Therefore, we have the vicious circle, from soil to the " * - 'L- !1 person, and from persons to uie sun. Therefore, if the human excreta were properly provided for and disposed of, the disease would soon be only an interesting historical fact. The disea?e is found in all ages, in both sexes and in all classes. Symptoms: Ground-itch is the first symptoms, but is of comparitavely little-importance. The sympd fcoms following ^round-ilch will de' pend upon the number of the paraI sites present and the resistance of the individual. Trie number of hookworms in persons infected varies from one or two to several thousand and more. They do not multiply in the body. In a mild case on hookworm disease there may be no physical chan? ges in the person indicating the presence of the disease, and there I* also may be 10 special symptoms. The persona looks more or less healthy, has a good color, well developed, etc. However, in many of the mild casos, the person suffers regularly from indigestion or dyspepsia, may have headaches, heartburn, pains in the stomach, poor appetite #nd a general bad feeling. ^ Jn a case a little more severe, the ^ persons luoks a little pale, skin a little cloudy, and often suffers the above mentioned symptoms, usually the symptoms b4ng somewhat more intense. In a case that. Is still more severe ? the persons infected is markedly pale, due to the loss of blood, often sallow, faced puffed, poorly develop? . ed, body and limbs showing impairment in growth; puny, abdomen prominent, suffers of fen from weaki .1.. >li')Tinnu?i ci/mn. fiesoi, nuuuttuu fcotnc of indigestion as already mentinned, shortness of oreath and palpitation of the heart. Appetite, i with some poor; others ravenous. Jo a very severe case of hookworm disease the person infected is extremely pale, sallow, face puffed, etunted in growth, dropsical; very weak, unlit for any effort, either physical or mental; often has headaches, doziness, great shortness of breath, severe palpitations of heart pains in stomach, heartburn, and often perverted appetite for such < things as clay, sand, etc. These have been known as "clay ea'ers." w It is not necessary for a person to * have all these syinotoms for him or her to hayc hookworm disease. It does not require over six treatments, each given on# week apart, to effect a cure. Even the;# severej \y infected become strong and wolf. ^ toon regain a uoimal color, etp The treatment is harmless. Any suffering from any of the above symptoms should be examined, Jlr.

Editor Observer:?I desire to mention briclly one of our best and most honored citizens who desires that his friends should know, that although he is 79 years old and has been practically confined tohishou.-e for the past year, he is feeling much better aud exercising such faith in restoration to health that he has ordered a hoe and hatchet with which to chojS sticks and work the garden when he does get well. He says he came near leaving us a few days ago and going home, never to visit us, but his Father told him he could make out his visit and stay over a little while longer, possibly, spend the spring and summer with us. I fear some of vou do not annreci ate tMs neighborbod as you ought. Do you ask who it is? I will tell you. Its Brother W A Spivey, a better man than whom never lived in Moultrie. A man whose life has been a benediction to us all, whose good family is following in his consecrated footsteps and whoso presence honor and hless every community in which they live. Have you people of Moultrie ever spent a hour with Brother Spivey and hear him talk about being ready to go home? If you have not., go at once, and get a little inspiration to help you now. Standing on the brink of the river aud waiting for the pilot tq come for hitn, this brother quotes passages of scripture, day by day and confidentially expecting to realise the fullness of the reedemec] in, "There is a land that fairer than da) And by faith we can see in afar, Where a Father waits over the way ? To prepare us a dwelling place there." Brother Spivey will appreciate a visit from you and you will thank yourself afterwards?lets help him chop the sticks apd work the garden for its not the one who liyes nearest, bpt he Opes the best by?who is my neighbor.
