PNEUMONIA DON It's.

The health bureau of Philadelphia
has issued a list of don is to reduce
the high death rate of pneumonia.
" Pneumonia. SAYS a special bulletin
of the bureau, causes more deaths at
this season of the year than any other
single disease The don Is given
are are follows
Don I poison yourself with dirty air
by staying in poorly ventilated. over
crowded, foul smelling places. Fresh
air dies not cause pneumonia or any
other disease, but is necessary for good
health in winter as well as in summer.
Don t inquire your health and lower
your vitality by overcating or excuses
of any kind.
Don't indulge to excess in alcoholic
liquors. People who are addicted to
alcohol reduce their resistance to pneu-
monia and increase the liability of
death from it.
Don't sleep with the bedroom WIN
dows closed. Night air is purer than
day air. 1t contains less dust and
fewer germs.
Don sit around with wet feet or
with wet clothing on.
Don't let any one who has pneu-
mcnia pass it on 10 YOU. Treat pneu-
monia as catching disease.
| Don't forget that good general
health, maintained at high standard
by right living, is the best possible
Safeguard against pneumonia or any
other infectious or contagious disease.

SUFFRAGISTS EXTEND
SYMPATHY TO JUDGES

Editor of The Reformer:
Much sympathy from the suffragists
is extended to the Honorable Judges
of this state who find themselves
represented or misrepresented in
the new constitutional amendment
deal. We know exactly how they feel
for we have had similar experience.
When the much learned and able
committee was first appointed to
draft these amendments, the writer
asked these gentlemen 10 include one
having for its object the enfranchise-
ment of the women OF this state. They
not only refused to draft such
amendment, but they refused to ex
plain why.
In the light of the present predica-
ment not man can rise up and say
