Situation at Dayton.
Dayton, Ohio, March 31.-Here is
the problem presented to f1ood-swept
Dayton, as summarized by George F.
Burba, secretary to Governor Cox, who
is representing the governor:
Forty thousand persons must be fed,
clothed and housed for a week more.
Twenty thousand persons must be
cared for indefinitely. These are per
sons who lost their all when their
household goods were swept away
They must be provided with a few ne
cessary household articles, such as
bedding, pots and pans, stoves and
few dollars. A half-million dollars
could be used in this way by the relic
committee.
Fifteen thousand houses and othe,
structures, or what remains of them
must be pulled down.
Thousands of tons of debris mus
be removed.

plishments since the flood broke owe

COLD In
THE Head
Is the First Chapter In the History
Of Chronlo Disease.

A cold in the head is the first chap
ter in the history of disease and death.
This has been SO often repeated that
there r few people indeed who havs
not witnessed many examples OF 1t.
A cold in the head is rarely severe
enough to confine a vigorous person
to the house. AS a rule, 1t ends in
recovery without any treatment. This
has led many people to regard a cold
in the head as of no Importance. 1t is
a terrible mistake, however, to pass
by a cold in the head as a trivial mat
ter. Every case should be treated.
Those who have used Peruna for
such cases will testify unanimously
that a few doses is sufficient to re-
move every vestige of the cold. How
much better it is to treat a cold in this
way than it is to allow 1t to go on and
on for weeks, perhaps months, leaving
effects that will never be eradicated.
Yet there are those who neglect to
take Peruna for a cold In the head.
This neglect is due to the false notion
that e cold in the head is hardly worth
noticing.
A cold in the head is in reality a
case of acute catarrh. 1t ought to be
called so, in order to awaken people
from their lethargy on this subject. In
a large per cent. of cases cold in the
head will end in chronic catarrh. I'm
less properly treated with some such
remedy as Peruna, perhaps so per
cent. Of cases of cold in the head will
lay the foundation for chronic catarrh.
A tablespoonful of Peruna should be
taken at the very first symptom of
cold in the head. Usually where the
cold is not very severe a tablespoonful
of Peruna before each meal and at bed
time 10 sufficient. 1t may be neces-
sary, however, where the attack is
more serious, to keep strictly in the
house and take a tablespoonful OF
Peruna every hour. Younger people
feeble or delicate women, should take
a teaspoonful every hour.

The Effect of Coffee on Highly Organ

years, and about two years ago got

nervous that at the least noise | was
distressed, and many times could not

pain"
Tea is just as injurious, because it
contains caffeine, the same drug u
in coffee.
My physician told me I must not
eat any heavy or strong food, n or
dered a diet, giving me some medi-
cine. 1 followed directions carefully,
but kept on using coffee and did not
get any better.
Last winter my husband, who was
away on business, had Postum served
to him in the family where he board
ed. He liked it so well that when he
came home he brought some with him.
We began using it and l found 1t
most excellent.
while l drank it my stomach never
bothered me in the least, n l got
over my nervous troubles. When the
Postum was gone we returned to cof-
fee, then my stomach began to hurt
me as before, and the nervous con
ditions came on again.

the cause of the whole trouble, SO

Disease Follows Flood.
Indianapolis.-Central Indiana is
summoning it's medical forces to fight
disease which is following in the wake
of the devasting flood which swept
that section last week. Sanitary ex-
perts expect hundreds of cases of ty-
phoid, diphtheria, pneumonia and
measles to develop.
A member of the state board of
health asserts that the floods toll of
81 lives in this state probably will be
exceeded. Scores of persons in all
walks of life have been huddled in
small halls and buildings for days
They have been forced to live like
sheep and a ~pestilence is feared. Thou
sands of persons will continue to be
homeless until their residences have
been cleaned of the filth left BY
the receding waters and fumigated. A
majority of these refugees have NJ
clothing except what they wore whe1
