SCALES IN SCARLET FEVER

"Scarlet fever scales are not dam
gerous," says DR.. H. M. Hall of the
Minnesota Public Health Association.
"Our ancestors dreaded these little
shreds of skin, but we know they are
harmless in themselves. A scarlet
fever case is dangerous, scales or no
scales, from the first moment of the
attack, even before the rash appears
and remains dangerous until the pa
tient is entirely we'll. The first signs
of scarlet fever are headache, fever
and sore throat. The patient is in
fictitious as soon as the sore-throat
develops. He remains infectious so
long as the throat or nose remains ev-
en- slightly infamed, even though ev-
cry other symptom may have disap-
peared. 1t does not matter whether
the scaling of the skin has not yet
begun or whether it has been finished.

normal, the patient is safe;, if the

An idea of the comedy possibilities of
this farce may be cleaned from a recital of
the characters in the play. There Is a
breezy New York lawyer and his newly
married wife; there is a fat burglar with
an uncommon sense OF humor; there is an
amazing servant girl and pompous Eng
lish butler; there is young chap just out
of college and his pretty iancee; a slangy
chorus girl, and there is also a stately Bos-
ton society woman. And there are three
New York policemen, each different
type, and there is maiden aunt from Ion-
kers and an athletic .twoman, who stands
up for her rights There are numerous
minor characters, all well drawn, and each
contributing his and her share Of the gen
eral merriment.
The story of 4 Full House concerns the
exchange of grips between a good-natured
burglar, who has just robbed Boston so
ciety' woman of ruby necklace, and a
newly married lawyer who has gone to
that same city TO secure the indiscreet love
letters Of prospective brother-in-law,
This incident leads to series of the most
amusing complications imaginable, leaving
the audience with nothing to do but laugh.

The .liveliest practice of the football
season was held yesterday afternoon.
Although neither Plumb nor Moran
was in the lineup and Betterley was
out as the result of an injury to one
leg and Dunton was not on hand the
team worked fast and well.
Richmond worked in the hackfeld IN
place of Plumb, with Howard at cen
ter. Plir, IN was in the line in place
of Dunton, with Winchester, still
imping but herwise in good shape,
at the ether tackle. The plays, gener-
ally srcl ng, worked smoothly and the
interfere . has never shown up be-
ter than Z did yesterday.
Moran and Plumb both expect to run
through signals this afternoon and
with Betterley in the line as is expect
ed the final touches viii be put on
for the hardest game of the year, the
game with Vermont academy tomor-
row.
The school spirit has become aroused
and it is planned to have the mem

About Half What Was Needed
Weekly Salary List $279.

The Bellows Falls clubNof the Twin State
league held its annual meeting last
night. The report Of Treasurer H. w.
BuzzelT showed that the association is
S524. 50 in debt. OF this $500 is on
note signed the last day of the season in
order to pay the salaries of the players;
S125 is due for transportation; $461J is
due for printing and $3.50 for supplies
The association has $1.34 on hand
The total attendance of the games in
Bellows Falls last season was 9,JS3, the
average attendance being 1888. The total
gate receipts amounted to $2,6S3.31 and
the average receipts were S101 .33 The
total amount paid for salaries was So
OIL 90, the average weekly salary, incud-
ing Manager f. W. Crowthers pay, being
S279 %. The total expense for transport
ing the team by automobiles was S3S1. II
Cash received by the directors last sea-
son amounted to So, 45S %; cash expended
to S5,456.92 Outside of expenses for run
ming the team there were other bills, some
left over from last season, for new uni
forms this season, guarantees, last season 5
note and interest, the automobile which
was given away, and a prize for selling the
most tickets These bills amounted to ST.,
36G.S3
Deducting the bills left over from last
season and the bills for the automobile
and other incidentals not directly connect
ed with running the game, it cost S4,613.60
to run the Bellows Falls Twin State league
baseball team during l. playing weeks last
summer. The average cost of each home
game amounted to S1S4.54 These figures
show an average attendance of 625 is need
ed to pay the expenses of running a team
in Bellows Falls of the class that the place
demands, providing no subscriptions are re-
ceived Less than $500 was received from
subscriptions to run the team before and
after the season opened last June.
The directors reported that five games
were lost because of rain, something against
which no other Twin State league team
ever has had to contend, and one of these
games was on the morning of July t. Be
sides these a double-header against New
port was not played, causing a good-sized
financial loss, and the Labor day game was
suddenly switched from the afternoon to
the morning, following the break with
Newport in which Claremont participated
with Bellows Falls. That Bellows Falls
remained under the salary limit of $3.50
week, exclusive of the manager, is shown
/ by the average weekly salary list.

Now Atlanta, where there has been no fair for nearly 10 years, comes to the front with 2 fund of $20o,00O to bid for recognition as center of agri- cultural display. Memphis holds as tri-state fair every fall and this year will put an additional $15, ,00O into improvemen The Tennessee Legislature has appropriated $2O,000' to promote fair at Knoxville The Kentucky State Fair. held each year at Louisville. has become a most credita bIer institution.

Germany After the War.
(New York Journalsof Commerce

tINeW IT OrK JOuTnals0I Commerce.)
 When the European war closes Germany will find 1t necessary to re- sume relations with other countries. No nation in this age can maintain an Independent economic system; and Germany least of all nations has sought to do so. When she resumes trade relations her danger will be that with current capital destroyed, and with no adequate means of pro- yiding for the restoration of usual business relations upon the neces- sary scale, she will find herself hope lessly crippled. She cannot look with success to her past sources of supply in London and Paris, and she is likely to find relatively little aid available in the neutral countries. Germany now depends practically entirely. upon her own internal resources. both of current manufacturers and Of capital. Outsiders cannot determine exactly how rapidly she is trenching upon either and residents of the country IS already noted are depriv
 ed of the usual standards of compar- lson Her leaders, under these con- ditions, are likely to come to the end of her strength without much warn ing, and unexpectedly. both so far as their own people and the outside world are concerned. When the Ger man nation does thus reach the Hnlit of It's endurance for the present, re- covery IS likely to be much slower and more difficult than in the case of otner countries. The economic laws, which are said by some to nave been successfully overridden by Ierman organization and con1bina ton, nave a way or reasserting them selves, German conditions after the war are likely to furnish striking 1llustration of the way in which tl11Y process makes itself effective.
