CARE OF The
CONSUMP

Important Information Regarding the
Proper Care of the Patlent-The
Use Of Material Eating Utensils
Care Of the Clothes.

The home care of the consumptiye
in the beginning stage, under the SUI
pervision of doctor or a nurse, is not
dangerous to the other members OF
the household. The germs of the dis.
ease are almost wholly thrown on in
the discharges from the mouth and
nose, and uniformly careful collec-
ton and destruction OF this material
will prevent the spread of the germs
through the house. The consumptive
should spit in a paper box or cloth
which can be burned. Paper napkins
should be used instead Of the ordinary
cotton or linen handkerchiefs TO wipe
the nose and lips, and these napkins
should be carefully burned. The con.
sumptlve should have his own set Of
dishes, which should be washed sep
arately in boiling water, His bed and
table linen should first be soaked In a
disinfecting solution or boiled for half
an hour befoie being washed with the

THE MESSAGE.

President Wilson has again
demonstrated that he is a states
man. His message to Congress
is a brief, but forceful docu-
ment. 1t is not a preachment.
1t is a terse explanation of the
situation and a statement of his
views upon public questions.
His recommendation of Presi-
dental primaries and of public
ownership Of the Alaskan rail-
ways are regarded as extreme
by some, but they only show
that the President has looked in
to the future further than most
men do, and knows the actual
needs of the country. He advo-
Gates no change in the Mexican
question, but advised continue
ton of the watching and wait
ing" policy. He is demonstrat.
ing that as the country becomes
ready for a departure from ole
ways that he is ready to aid
His administration will work the
greatest advancement of politi
cal and economic thought in oul
history.

Notwithstanding the fact that
the law requires that the finan-

published annually. in the last
three years it has only been pub
lished once, and then only a list

meaning Of the law is that such
a statement shall be published
as will show all the revenue de-

that will tell the public the exact

WANAMAKER AND ADvER'TIS-
ING.

The Courier-Journal had the
following editorial in a recent is
sue concerning JOHN Wananlaker,
Philadelphia's Merchant Prince
and former Postmaster of the
Tinted States. 1t could be read
with profit by every merchant in
Kentucky and we commend it to
the careful perusal of the mer-
chants of Morgan county:
In an address delivered in
Philadelphia recently John Wan
amaker said the first necessity
of success in retail trade is good
merchandise, He added that
good advertising is quite as
much of a necessity to a business
that is to keep up a healthy
growth.
IF you have in your shop,
said Mr.. Wanamaker, exactly
what 500, 600 people in the city
want, but only 500 of them
know you have it. the care and
energy you have expended in
maintaining a stock of high
quality will do little good, either
to your customers or to your
business"
Mr.. Wanamaker may be con-
sidered an authority on adver-
Using, for there has been no
more consistent and persistent
advei tiser In all the history Of
the United States. He is one
of the country's greatest mer-
chants. He began business on
a rather meager basis, but by
judicious use of the newspapers
he let all Philadelphia know what
he had to sell, and increased his
establishment and his outlay
for publicity until he made the
name Wanamaker known around
the world.
In the half a century or more
that the Wanamaker store has
grown from nothingness to its
present proportions thousands Of
stores in Philadelphia have come
and gone without leaving a rip
pie on the city's surface. Hon
est merchants, many of them,
who dealt in good goods anG
gave their customers a square
deal, but they either neglected
the publicity end of the business
or botched it up so badly thai
they they got no results. THE
satisfaction of knowing thai
your name stands for hood mer
chandise, said Mr.. Wanamakel
in his recent address, lis {
great thing certainly, but it il
not apt to be greatly profitable
unless the public at large knows
it also:"
The retail merchant who doe
not advertise cannot hope t,
build up a big, growing and en-
during business. All merchants
it is true, cannot be Wanamak
ers, but there is no merchan
who cannot enlarge his trade b.
: intelligent advertising.

Want To Be a -Spugs

The "Spug" movement is the
latest thing to call for public at
tention, and it has the merit of
being founded on good, hard
common sense. 1t is an associa-
ton called the Society for the
Prevention Of Useless Giving,
the term "Spug" being derived
from the first letters of the
words. Idon't know who start
ed the movement, but whoever
it was hasearned a place in the
Hall Of Fame.
y y
Useless, or rather senseless,
giving needs to be abated. Take
the Christmas holiday giving for
instance. Jones buys Smith and
Brown and Green and Black each
a costly present, neither of which
ne can afford and which are of
no practical use, just because he
feels that each of them will give
him some costly present that he
has no earthly use for. And be-
cause it is a silly custom we have
not the courage to suggest that
we quit it lest some Of our neigh
bors call US stingy. The purpose
of the Spugs is to break up this
worse than silly habit. But the
Spugs don't discourage giving if
the gift will be helpful = it is only
the useless giving that they wish
to abate.

ficers are called | don't know,

ASKED AND ANSWERED.

Am engaged to a young. man
and he insists on kissing me. Is
it right for me to kiss him?

If the man is in earnest there
is no particular harm in kissing,
but men are such liars that you
never know when they are in
earnest until you get them hog
