Well, people, l forgot to make men
ton of the smallpox situation mp here
in English Cove The cove has been
partly under quarantine, but the stu
alton is better now and the quarantine
has been removed except from two
cases. Mrs. Reeves. one of the small
pox victims, left the impression on my
mind in a conversation with her over
the matter that it was only genuine
good case of the chickenpox. 1t in the
event it was smallpox or species of
that .malady, it was quite different
from the smallpox in olden times in
the day of her girlhood, and this kind
is not fatal by any means The old
lady is not doctor, but has lived
three score years and her golden locks
have turned to silver gray.

We are led to believe that DR.. N. b.
Moore is right up to the next man, If

ment. It would be the first since the
