CHINESE SUFFERERS FROM FAMINE FACE DISEASE OF CHOLERA fBy Associated Press) PEKING. Oct. 18. Cholera is ad!ln to the general distress in the faminestricken district where from 25,000,000 to 30,000.000 people are facing death by starvation. The Associated Press correspondent, who recently traveled through the heart of the territory most seriously denuded , of food, found conditions even more desperate than had been indicated by information previously received here. In the town of Hwaian where there were 100 families, 30 persons had died

oi enoiera and similar reports are common from various other districts. The picture presented to the eye of the correspondent was a dismal one. The soil barren as in mid-winter, irices soaring, migration of those having more money or enterprise, the people living on a diet of weeds, chaff, thistles and leaves; children, especially little girls, offered for sale at the average price of the small Chinese mule; cholera from underfeeding, suicides of individuals in extreme despair, old women and children gleaning ratchos of weeds, men with no work to do and clusters of refugees living in the shelter of temples in market towns. Crisis Coming. Information obtained by the correspondent indicated that the present suffering is only a forecast of that to come in the course of eight or ten weeks, when the real crisis will arrive. Conditions in the belt he traversed in a journey by cart between two railway lines near Techow are believed to bo typical of those generally existing throughout large areas in the provinces of Chihli, Shantung,

scribable misery and stoical facing of starvation by millions of people who already had disposed of everything salable and saw in the future nothing but death. When the frost will have killed the unconsumed leaves and weeds there will be literally nothing to eat for at least half the population. 'One out of 10 has already migrated without money and without destination. In the worst spots half the people are already subsisting on the proceeds of the sale of furniture and clothing, which means that those temporarily escaping starvation will ultimately die from cold and exposure.

University Students Are Given Psychological Test fBy Associated Press) BLOOMIXGTON, Ind., Nov. IS. "Does a teredo look like a cloudburst, a Spaniard, a battleship or a worm?" This is one of the questions submitted to the students at Indiana University who are studying journalism. Another question was: "Is Leaven worth most noted for its parks, prison, libraries or docks?" These questions are part of a pschological test arranged by a member of the department of psychology of the University of Washington and are being given at each state university in the country. A more practical test was that in observation. The students were permitted to look for one minute at the photograph of a street car and automobile wreck. Then a list of sixty questions, including every detail of the picture, was presented to be answered in three minutes. Records are being kept of the tests in the different universities and in later years it will be checked up with the actual accomplishment of the students in newspaper and magazine work.

Proctorville, Ohio, Minister Letter Tells Impressive Story of Benefits Received by Himself and His Wife. "My nerves were so racked that I could not sleep until after midnight, and I would almost jump out of bed," Baid Rev. Damron in a letter written some time ago. "After taking half a bottle of Nerv-Worth, I could sleep almost as well as when 1 was a boy. My wife had rheumatism in her hip joints bo that she could not stoop down and riee up without help, and her system was run down and she was not able to do any" work without great pain. After taking 2 bottles of Nerv-Worth, the rheumatism had disappeared, and her blood is as good as when she was a child, and she weighs more than

she has for 20 years. I recommend Nerv-Worth as the greatest remedy that I have ever found. I cannot praise it as it deserves." The above is but one of many weighty statements from one of the ministry. Such statements offer the most conclusive proof, and nothing further by way of explanation need be added to them. Give Nerv-Worth a trial, and if your first trial bottle does not prove satisfactory, your money will be refunded. You will finally come to Nerv-Worth for satisfactory results, so why not come today? Be sure to get the genuine in the large round bottle. Price $1.25 plus war tax. Sold by all lead ing druggists everywhere. Advertise ment.
