RLAN VERY ACTIVE . AT CHILLICOTHE, 0, Nine Fiery Crosses Burst Into Flame Simultaneously v Growth Is Rapid

CHILLICOTHE, O., May 22. Much Interest is being manifested in the Ku Klux Klan in thia city following the burning of nine fiery crosses on Saturday night. May 12. The crosses were burned simultaneously at different points in the city. Two of the croHses burned near public school buildings. The cross that gained the most attention was that one which burned on the edge of the lake in Yoctangee Park and the reflection of the flames in the water presented a most beautiful sight. All the crosses were lighted at exactly 8:15. One of them was lighted on the peak of Mt. Hogan and this also formed a spectacle out of the ordinary. The Klan, it is understood, Is growing with great rapidity in this section. The Record KL'-Kl Till: ( l.t (KtC OF THE Kl KM X KLAN They nre nil buying It. Henr It yourKclf at UK AX II."

The Noles Water Filter and Double Cooler combined have proved a sweeping success, and the natural stone with its thousands of invisible pores does wonders in extracting the deadly mineral substance which is found in any and all city, well or spring water, no matter how clear and harmless it may appear, or the complete outfit is theirs without a cent. The deadly mineral substance which is eating and destroying the tinware, and forming stone in the teakettle in every household in the land. Simply look and see it in your own household? You drink the same water and find the identical stone formations imbedded in the kidneys, forming stones in the bladder, gallstones, coating the stomach and filling the cavities, destroying the digestive organs, urinary organs and so on. Simply going all through the system. Look at the thousands being suddenly called to the hospitals and that dreaded operating table, pay $300, and you have not removed the cause. Many other complaints coming from this same cause. We have hundreds of stones taken from people on the dreaded operating table. We have hundreds of sworn affidavits from living responsible people, with their full names and addresses, who were glad to hold their hands up to God and declare to the world how quickly this Famous Natural Stone extracted this deadly mineral substance from their drinking water and they were soon built up to health and happiness after years of suffering and loss of money.
