THE GIY AND FESTIVE RED BUG I
I worn us Dissertation on Well Known<
j^^HPest called dinners'' in Georgia.
^^^HEuitor Constitution:?I have
a discovery, that is my
^^^Fruggist made it for me. I have
^HTpt-e:. times,
when about on my farm, from
eertain ' very certain, too) very
B industrious insects 'I think called
r ehiggers* or vulgarly, jiggers.
Whatever you may call them,
they came numerous iu me
without calling, and when they
came they made me scratch for
dear life: they made the days
painful and the nights sleepless,
t. and it seemed that I was on tire
W' nearly all over.
The old woodsmen said: ''Rub ;
then with salt bacon rind." I
rubbed, it was so obnoxious to
my cute little boarders that
they bored deeper into my
cuticle than ever. Some one
suggested a salt glow. It could
not be harder than the chigger
glow, so I gave them salt in
allopathic doses rubbed in, or on,
by the orthodox osteopath
method, as the salt was furnished
by a Christian Science lady,
that made a pathologicol combination
to beat any band of
boarders. All animate life
seems to need salt, so I kneaded
salt into my epidemis freely in
fond hope and eager expectation
of filling the chiggoes with
chloride of sodium so full that
they would be satisfied to let me
B. Vain hope; they took salt all
right it only sharpened their
appetites so they took bites of
Worden. It was no use to put
salt on their tails and their heads
were out of sight Coal oil is a
tsure cure, volunteered my friend
(that is I supposed he was my
friend), so I rubbed on and rub
Hf bed in kerosene. In the mornm
ings I bathed in John D.'s "straw
color" 150 degree test, as I
thought a gallon of preventive
V was worth a hogshead of cure.
B^^used so much of it is one rea'
f son that Rockefeller is so rich.
Bootless effort. Why these voracious
chiggoes took coal oil
like a consumptive, or Tanner
and Currier take Cod Liver Oil,
and waxed fat. I?well, I was
in despair, also I was infested,
very much infested. It was
hard for new colonies to find
choice, or chaw us either, locations
already not preempted by
the forerunners (maybe 4,000
runners or borers). Soda is a
sure settler for such critters,
volunteered an unlicensed practi
tioner of the Volunteer State. So I
I smeared my surface with soda I
"bicarb" in a saturated form or j
thin paste well rubbed in. That
gave some relief, but not enough,
they still bored and burned me. ]
/ Not being a "scientist," in desperation
I hurried to the nearest
druggist and called loudly for
relief, not "Rada way's Ready
Relief"?just any old thing that
^(l^fiaO tried all the standard
* prescriptions and found them
wanting- Some even seemed to
be wanted by the chiggoes.
"0, yes." he says, we have it
right here. Give them chloroform
until they cease to chew,
it's a sure cure" (or chewer's
cure.) So I bought chloroform and
put it on freely. It was a little
? ?+ fivcf hnt in a ffiw min
Wctiui ab iuovi uuv ...
utes the intolerable burning or
itching ceased, and in a few
hours the inflammation had largely
subsided.
I got a fine sleep, and feel so
thankful to find relief that I
rushed into print to promulgate
my (druggist's) prescription for
^ all sufferers who may read it.
In short, Worden says chloroform
your chiggoes.
A Chloroform is an excellent
. remedy for severe pains, and
^ ishould be kept in every mediH
cine chest. Three to ten drops
|k in a little water taken internally
Wf ' will give almost instant relief,
and is harmless. If not relieved
repeat in half an hour.
Comment: My father's wellproven
treatment for red bugs
(is that what you call jiggers?)
was stand for five minutes over a'
pan of live coals on which aj
quantity of tobacco was burning, j S
the person, meantime, clothed;
only in a "winding sheet." The.'
"jigger" flea (Sarcopsylla) is a;
very different insect from ti e j

National Conference Held at Columbia
Last Week to Investigate New Disease.
Columbia, November 0:?The c
national conference called to investigate
the widespread pre- j
valence of pellagra, its origin a
and treatment, assembled in t
this city yesterday afternoon t
for a two-days' session. The at- ^
tendance includes several hundred
health officers, asylum representatives,
marine hospital f
service officers, army surgeons,
alienists, neurotic experts and r
medical men of prominence from ^
many parts of the country.
The conference, for which c
preparations have been going J
forward over a month, is at- c
tractinir widespread attention.
Since the Secretary of the Treasury
in his annual report last
year uttered a warning against
the spread of pellagra, many
State boards of health have in11
vestigated the disAse and have
made alarming reports to the
Federal government. The medi- ^
cal view of its origin inclines
strongly to the eating of diseased
corn. It has existed for *
many years, usually diagnosed P
under some other name,and it is (
now believed that the great mor- v
tality in Andersonville and oth- 9
er Southern prisons during the c
war between the States was in
large part due to the disease, ?
the Confederate government be- M
ing unable to furnish the pris- o
oners with any other breadstuffs
than those made of corn. (
a rprpnt outbreak in Illinois
disclosed that many cases ex. (
isted in the State insane asylum
in Peoria. X low estimate of the (
cases in the United States is
now 5,000. The South has par- t
ticularly suffered and 676 of the
known cases are reported from
South Carolina alone, though it
is probable there is no more in ^
I this State than in others, South
Carolina physicians having sim- j
ply learned more about the diagnoses
of the affection than the
doctors of other States. *
At the opening session of the
conference Friday atternoon,fol- "
lowing an address of welcome
by Governor Ansel, a number of
instructive papers wer?r present^

Ten Doctors
Said He Would Die
"In 1903 we wrote you regarding
ray husband, who was suffering
from heart trouble. He
was superanuated by the North
Georgian Conference. Ten doctors
at different times said he
would die. You advised Dr.
Miles' Heart Remedy and Restorative
Nervine; we^did as
advised, and improvement was
apparent from the very first. He
recovered and the Conference in
1904 gave him a charge. He
never felt better, although he
has very heavy work and does
a great deal of camp meeting
work. I am so glad we took
your advice and gave him the
medicine, and feel that I ought
? f .1 J
to let you icnow 01 tne wonuer!
ful good results from its use."
MRS. T. S. EDWARDS,
Milner, Ga.
This proves what Dr. Miles'
Heart Remedy will do. Get a
' bottle from your druggist and
i take it according to directions.
! It does not matter whether your
1 heart is merely weak, or you
I have organic trouble, if it does
! not benefit you take the empty
1 bottle to your druggist and get
| your money back.
