The physicians say that the
epidemic Of grip now prevailing
in Washington is more extend
ed than ever before, but the at
tacks are not 80 severe az in
previous years, particularly in
1859, 1890 and 1891. There
have been few deaths from the

careless attire and utter disregard fol
cleanliness was one day observed by
his father scrubbing the dirt from his
face and neck. The parent has pref
ty long memory and as visions of his
early days came before him he handed
his son a dollar and a half saying:
''That will buy two seats, my son, and
lemonade for both of you" The boys
shiny face fairly glowed as he took
the cash and family asked: elbow did
you know. dad?" MY son, 1 have
never known the case to fail. When
boy gets to the stage where he wash
eS his neck and ears without somebody
telling him to do it, he has girl and
circus in his mind. Eek.
