DiPHTHERIA HERE TOO PREVALENT,
 CAUSES ANXIETY
Health Board Watches Ev- cry Case of Sore Throat and Is on Guard Against Epidemic.

Diphtheria always prevalent at this period of the year, was reported to the number of g cases to the Board Of Health during October. This is not a record number. but considerably more than the Board of Health views without anxiety.
 Extra precaution to prevent the spread of diphtheria is being taken by the school authorities. Whenever a case of sore throat is detected the suspect is immediately sent from school to be examined and is not ad- mitted to school again without assur- ances that there is no danger of diph- theria.
 Among the other diseases reported to the Board of Health last month the cases numbered as follows: Scarlet fever, three; measles, five: typhoid fever, five; tuberculosis. nine; whoop- ing cough. one; infantile paralysis, two; erysipelas, two.
 Health Officer Mcclellan points out that there was an unusually large number of deaths due to cancer in the mouth, nine in all. Pneumonia claimed nine victims and tuberculosis seven, the deaths from the two last named diseases being considerably lower than the health department ex- pected for the period of the year.

Boys warm Overcoats.

To be sure, a boy that is any sort of boy wants his overcoat to be a g9odioking
 He may, unwisely, care more about looks than about warmth.
 But Mother is the safety valve, when it comes to choosing coat. She will in- sist upon warmth. And she is wise.
 Overcoats in the Boys Shop are going to suit Boy. They are going to suit Moth CT just exactly as we'll. That is because they are both good-looking and warm.
 These overcoats are made of soft thick warm fabrics that are in tan gray or brown effects. They are made in such a way that they not only fit but will hold their shape. They are lined with cloth that will add to their wearing ability.
 Boys will especially like their collars which are quickly converted from the close-buttoning sort to the dress shape that is wide open.

HEARD FROM AT LAST

Andre the polar balloonist has
been heard Of the past week, twelve
years after he lett civilization in his
dash tor tile north pole in balloon.
In the rush OF the world events he
has been almost forgotten, and now
that we have evidence that he travel
ed thousands OF miles and was killed
by natives in the heart OF British
America on his way back, the world
anxiousiy awaits the finding of the
records OF the expedition.
In 1874 DR.. Franklin's expedition
disappeared in the polar regions, and
during the next ten years dozen
expeditions went out to search for
them, and finally found the frozen
bodies and much OF their equipment.
Andres party left in 1897, and aft
err few months it was generally con-
coded that they were lost by dropping
into the seas. The rush to the Klon-
dyke, the Spanish American war, the
Boxer troubles in China. the Russian
Japanese war, all helped people to
forget Andre, and now an expedition
will go into the region west OF the
hudson bay to hunt for relics and
the records OF his trip. Meanwhile
Andres party is bivouaced with the
heroes of the Franklin and other ex-
petitions who met with. equally tragic
fates.
