SUGGESTIONS FOR SHIPPERS OF
CHRISTMAS PACKAGES BY
EXPRESS

No. 4. Ship your packages early,
today if possible.
No. 2. Whenever possible use
strong wooden boxes for packing.
II may cost a few cents more but
the danger of loss and damage is
very much reduced. True, if the
shipment is lost or damaged, the
Express Company will pay for it,
but that will give your friend no
pleasure.
No. 3. Write the address plainly
and in full; town, county, and state,
also street and number; on box or
wrapper with ink or crayon. Use
tags only when absolutely necessary
as they are easily torn off and lost
in handling shipments.
No. 1. IL you desire to prepay the
charges, write the word paid" in
large plain letters on the package.
No. 5. Insist upon receipt and
if charges are paid, see that such
amount is shown on receipt, also de-
clare value of shipment and have
such value embodied in the receipt.
No. 6. Write your own name and
address plainly on package, show
ing yourself as shipper and also en-
close a card bearing your full name
and address so that in case outside
mark becomes mutilated or defaced
and consignee's address is lost, you
can be promptly notified.
No. Z. II not convenient to ship
in box use strong wrapping paper
and tie with strong cord. Do not
use newspaper or other paper that
has any writing on it as it may mis-
lead the employe handling same and
result in loss or delay.
No. &. II package contains any
thing of a perishable nature write
the word "psrishable" in large
plain letters on box or package TO

The Unvaccinated

It is often alleged that the unvaccinated
are so much infammable material in the
midst Of the community, and that small
pox begins among them and gathers force
so that it sweeps even the vaccinated be-
fore it.

SHOWN THAT AT COLOGNE IN 1870
THE FIRST UNVACCINATED PER
SON ATTACKED BY SMALLPOX WAS
THE 174TH IN ORDER OF TIME, AT
BONN THE SAME YEAR THE And,

Through constant misrepresentation, the
public have been led to accept vaccination
as valuable to protect them from or render
smallpox less dangerous, and on that
ground laws have been placed on the
statute books compelling innocent and
healthy children to submit to vaccination
in order to enter school, with the result
that hundreds have died and become in
valids for life. Whenever such a case oc-
ours the medical men say the virus was i'm
pure or not properly applied, and when
death results of vaccination they rarely
give a certificate except for the final cause.

Re-Vaccinated

The practice Of re-vaccination was first
recommended in England, by G. Gregory,
and in Germany, for the army by Helm
1929.
STA since 1885: re-vaccination Of school
pupils at the age Of twelve is an integral
part of the vaccination law
Notwithstanding the fact the Prussia
was the best re-vaccinated Country in
Europe, it's morality from smallpox, in
the epidemic Of 1871, was higher go, 839)
than in any other northern state.
The evidence as to re-vaccination on a
large scale comes from the army.
According to a competent statistician
"a. Vogt), the death rate from smallpox
in the German army, in which all recruits
are re-vaccinated, was sixty per cent. more
than among the civil population Of the
same age. It was ten times greater among
the infantry than among the cavalry, and
sixty times more among the Hessians than
among the Wurtembergers.
The Bavarian contingent, which was re-
vaccinated without exception, had five
times the death rate from smallpox in the
epidemic Of 1901 that the Bavarian civil
population Of the same ages had, although
re-vaccination is not obligatory among the
latter.
