It may be an old-fashioned cold that has over
como the country. but whatever its causes OF
peculiarities hardly any one is free from touch
Of It's evil influence. and the number Of sudden
deaths from pneumonia and kindred diseases

with the new year was broken Lbefore the sun
was up.
At Bellevue Hospital. however, not q single
new case had been entered upon the records

about eight per cent Of their employees are
