Many California people are afflicted
with a queer disease, according to a
statement yesterday by Professor
James M. Munyon. He made the fol
lowing remarkable and rather grew
some statement : "Many persons who
came to my headquarters at The Owl
Drug company, San Francisco, think
they are suffering from simple stom
ach trouble, when in reality they are
the victims of an entirely different
disease that of tape worm. These
tape worms are huge internal para
sites, which locate in the upper bowel
and consume a large percentage of the
nutriment in undigested food. They
sometimes grow to a length of forty
to sixty feet. One may have a tape
worm for years and never known the
cause of his or her chronic ill health.
"Persons who are suffering from
one of these creatures become nerv
ous, weak and irritable, and tire at
the least exertion. The tape worms
rob one of ambition and vitality and
strength, but they are rarely fatal.
"The victim of this disease is apt to
believe that he is suffering from
chronic stomach trouble, and doctors
for years without relief. This is not
the fault of the physicians he con
sults, for there is no absolute diagno
sis that will tell positvely that one is
not a victim of tape worm.
"The most common symptom of this
trouble is an abnormal appetite. At
times the person is ravenously hungry
and cannot get enough to eat. At
other times the very sight of food is
loathsome. There is a gnawing,
faint sensation at the pit of the stom
ach, and the victim has headaches, fits
of dizziness and nausea. He cannot
sleep at night and often thinks he is
suffering from nervous prostration.
"I have a treatment which has had
wonderful success in eliminating these
great creatures from the system. In
the course of its regular action in aid
ing digestion, and ridding the blood,
kidneys and liver of impurities, it has
proven fatal to these great worms. If
one has a tape worm, this treatment
will, in nine cases out of ten, stupefy
and pass it away, but if not, the
treatment will rebuild the run-down
person, who is probably suffering
from stomach trouble and a general
anaemic condition. My doctors re
port marvelous success here with this
treatment. Fully a dozen persons
have passed these worms, but they are
naturally reticent about discussing
them, and of course we cannot violate
their confidence by giving their names
to the public.
Letters addressed to Professor J. M.
Milnyon, care Owl Drug Co, San Fran
cisco, Cal., will receive as careful at
tention as though the patient called in
person. Medical advice and consulta
tion absolutely free. Not a penny to
pay.
Varying Opinions of Man.
Man has been defined by Aristotle
as "a reasoning animal;" by Plato as
"a political animal;" by Dante aa "a
ridiculous animal;" by Varchl and by
John Fiske as "an Improvable ani
mal;" and Boerhave calls him "mud
worked ud by the hand of God."

AH HDD Hi
Philanthropist Gives Kansas
College a Cemetery
In Time This Unique Gift la Ex
pected to Net More Than One
Million Dollars to Bene
ficiaries. Topeka, Kan. Nearly all college
have large endowments of money, se
curities and real estate given by
friends and by people interested in
the cause of education. The funds are
all Invested In bonds, stocks and real
estate, which do exceptionally well It
they return more than five or six per
oent on the Investment Many re
ligious organlzatipns have similar en
dowments. But Washburn college of
Topeka and the Topeka Young Men's
and Young Women's Christian as
sociations have one of the most novel
endowments In the country. It is a
cemetery and as far as known this Is
the only college In the United States
which numbers among its chief as
sets a share In the profits of a ceme
tery. Many churches have cemeteries,
but the Topeka Y. W. C. A. and Y. M.
C. A. are believed to be the only non
sectarian religious organizations with
an endowment of this kind.
A. B. Whiting, a Topeka merchant,
decided to leave a permanent endow
ment to the two Topeka Institutions.
He selected $25,000 as the beginning
of his endowment and then began
casting about for some plan of invest
ment which would actually net the
greatest Income to the three Institu
tions to which he desired to contrlb
uate. He investigated all kinds of
business ventures, bond and stock
returns and real estate Investments
and finally decided upon a cemetery
as the best possible Investment tor
the college and Christian associations.
His Investment of the modest endow
ment is expected to return to the col
lege and the two young people's asso
ciations considerably more than a mil
lion dollars before the sources oC
revenue from the sale of lots In the
cemetery are cut off.
Mr. Whiting bought the Mount Hope
cemetery grounds, 160 acres, one and
one-half miles west of Topeka. The
land alone cost $16,000 and left 19,000

THE TRUTH ABOUT BLUING.
Talk No. I.
Avoid liquid bluing. Every drop

with water is sold for 6 cents or 10

Always use RED CROSS BALL

for 5 cents, or 4-oz. for 10 cents. De

to begin the improvement work. This
was four years ago and the permanent
Improvement work of the cemetery
has been going on ever since and will
continue forever. The property has
been deeded to a board of trustees, of
which Mr. Whiting is president and
also general superintendent of the
cemetery. This board has been incor
porated for 1,000 years and it Is bound
to maintain the cemetery forever. No
grave can ever be neglected, as under
the terms of the charter the board Is
compelled to set aside a certain part
of its revenue to go into a perpetual
care fund, the interest on this fund
being sufficient to care for the prop
erty. The college and the Christian asso
ciations receive two-thirds of the en
tire sum obtained from the sale of
lots in the cemetery, and they cas
use the money for any purpose they
decide. No one except the actual work
ers In the cemetery receive a salary
and no dividends except to the col
lege and Christian associations are
declared. The college receives about
one half of the total amount received
from the sale of lots. The Young
Women's Christian association re
ceives the next largest share and the
Y. M. C. A. the next division. All the
rest of the money from the sale of
lots and the amount received for open
ing graves and caring for lots goes
Into the perpetual care fund of the
cemetery.

of their .bites and stings. There is a
tatisfaction in the relief it affords
domestic animals from the scourge of

School Cyclone Cellars Are Becoming

Leavenworth, Kan. Under an order
of the school board of Brown county
every schoolhouse within Its borders
will hereafter be supplied with a cy
clone cellar, to which the teacher
must lead her pupils whenever any
sign of a twister appears in the sky.
The cyclone drill is now a part of
the dally school routine, Instead of
the fire drill in city schools. Brown
county Is where fully a third of the
school houses were destroyed by a
tornado. 80 many pupils were hurt
and scared that It was decided that
a place of refuge must be provided at
each school.
The parents of the youngsters were
unanimous for this reform. Practi
cally every farmer In that section,
which seems peculiarly susceptible to
violent windstorms, has what Is
known in Kansas as "a 'frald hole,"
and there Is no reason why their chil
dren shouldn't be equally protected.
More than $100,000 will be expended
in new achoolbouses In the country,
Instead of the old white school house
of pioneer days each will be a modern
brick building, with a basement for
the furnace and a specially construct
