chill, vomiting or COMMISSIONS.
Any or all of these symptoms may
be present. The child has high
fever. Its skin is very dry and
hot. Upon lookin glnto the
mouth the tongue is found to be
furred. Under this white cover
ing the tongue is red and swollen
Frequently the child complains
Of sore throat. In ordinary cases
these early signs are followed ny
the rash and fever.
How to Prevent its Spread.
Whenever these signs are no
ticed the child should immediate
ly be kept away from other peo-
pie who may be at home and the
doctor should be called at once.
Great care should be exercised to
prevent the disease from spread
ing to other persons. This can
be done by observing the follow
ING rules which will be explained
by the attending physician:
/. Place the child in room
by itself, if possible.
2. The person who takes care
of the patient must make it her
business to change her outer
clothes when entering and leav-
ing the sick-room. This can cas-
lily be done by using a separate
loose gown or kimono for this
purpose. The hands and face
should be washed with soap and
water when leaving the patient s
room.
3. All the saliva and dis
charges from the patient S mouth,
nose and throat should be re-
ceived into pieces Of old linen or
cotton gauze. These should be
burnt.
4. The person i'll with scarlet
fever should have his own dishes,
spoons, knives and forks. These
dishes and all clothing worn by
the patient must be disinfected.
They must not be washed with
dishes and clothing used by other
members Of the family.
It is very important that you
take the above precautions even
in mild cases Of the disease.
These mild cases are most often
overlooked asd spread the disease
to other persons who may get it in
a very severe form. Scarletina is
scarlet fever.
Care Of the Patient.
The patient should receive
medical treatment and careful
nursing throughout the illness.
Without such care disorders of
the heart, kidneys and ears may
set in. 1t is especially after the
skin has peeled and the patient
begins to get well that careful
nursing must be continued. The
doctors instructions as to diet,
clothing and other precautions
should be followed to the letter.
This may avoid serious diseases
of the kidneys, heart and other
organs.
Remember that children who
have had scarlet fever must not
return to school before a period
OF SIX weeks has passed. In no
case should children who have
had scarlet fever and whose skin
is peeling be permitted to enter
the school room.
ALI people should make it their
business to observe these rules.
Only in this way can we ever rid
ourselves Of this preventable dis
ease. You should be glad to help
IN this work. To keep your chill
dren well You must help keep 9th
er peoples children well-Bulle-

WHOOPING COUGH.

Whooping-cough is a very con
taeious disease, especially OF emil
dren. Sometimes grOWn-ups get
it. It is then very dangerous. 1t
is serious disease for children.
Thousands die each year from
whooping-cough and its compl-
cations.
The mother whose children
have had the disease does not
need to be reminded Of It's symp-
toms. She can remember her
child running to her, gasplng her
breath, catching hold Of her skirt
for support, and finally breaking
out into that painful, rasplng
cough-painful to both mother
and child.
In the beginning Of the disease
the child shows signs OF an ordl-
nary cold. There is running of
the nose, slight fever and a dry
cough. The eyes are blood-shot.
After a week the cough becomes
worse instead Of better and the
coughing-fts develop. The child
coughs many times in succession.
1t becomes pale and then draws in
the breath with a sharp, shrill
noise that is the "whoop.' Some
but even in such cases great care
must be taken. In mild eases of
the disease the child will have
four or five coughing-fits day;
in severe cases, many more.
Whooping-cough is catching.
You should keep your child away
from other children who have the
disease. If your child has the
disease, you must not allow it to
play with healthy children. 1t
should be kept away from other
children even after the whoop"
has stopped, because it can still
give the disease to others.
All matter that comes from the
mouth and nose during the time
that the child is sick should be re-
ceived in pieces of old linen or
rags and burned. 1t is through
carelessness in this that the dis
ease is spread. Separate cups.
glasses, plates and spoons must
be kept for the child sick with
whooping-cough.
Follow the doctors directions
in the food that you give the
child. The child frequently
yomits during this disease. AS
result many children lose weight
and become very weak. In this
condition they easily get tuberc-
ulosis, pneumonia or other serious
diseases. D o not give a sick
child any heavy foods. Give it
only those that are easily digest
ed. Milk and eggs are very good.
An egg well-beaten in milk should
be given every time the child
loses it's meal.
See that it gets plenty Of fresh
air all the time. 1t is hard to
get enough fresh air indoors. but
the child needs it. and so it should
be taken out on the roof, into the
back yard or into the park. Keep
the room well aired all the time
bv night and day. Under no con-
dition must it be permitted to
play with healthy children.
AS soon as yourw child shows
the first signs Of this disease 60 to
your, doctor for advice.
Obey these rules and you will
not only keep your own child
well but you will protect others.

The Pan-American Refinery COM
pany, an eastern concern, yesterday
purchased eighty acres in West Tulsa
for a refinery site from the Tulsa
Industrial company, of which A. f.
Ault is viCe-president and John O.
Mitchell secretary. The transaction
involves a cash layout in excess of
$500 and the land lies in the fork
of the Frisco and the a. V. x w.
tracks, being an ideal site for the
purchase for which the Pan-American
people will use 1t.
This concern in entering the Tulsa
field without asking any bonus,
and work on the construction of one
of the most modern refineries in the
southwest will begin within the next
two weeks, according to plans now
made.
w. A. Reynolds. real estate dealer

Of the negotiations which carried
through this deal, and from what Mr..
Reynolds says this is just the fore
rune Of several other deals which
he has I'm the making and which he
hopes to see contaminated within a
short time. 1t was through his eff
forts that this concern opened offices

were entirely consumed. The spread
of the flames was stopped on the west
end by the new One-stOry tile build

at the other end of the street proved
a similar barrier.
The entire population Of the city
turned out TO see the conflagration.
Great havoc was wrought among the

arose as the fire was dying down.
The gale scattered sparks in every di-

the scene Of near-stampedc.

LABOR LAW IS HELD
UNCONSTITUTIONAL
Employer Has Same Right
Of the Employe, Decides
Court of Appeals.

Special 10 The World.
OKLAHOMA CITY, oct. 9.-That
an employee mas the same right to say
upon what terms an emplOye snail he
engaged by him as the cmplOye has to
say upon what terms he shall become
engaged, is the doctrine laid down in
a decision OF the criminal court Of ap-
pcals today in which a section Of II
Of the labor laws Of the state is held
unconstitutional. This is section 4O41
of the compiled laws of 1903. in which
II is made misdemeanOr for an en-
ployer of labor to refuse employment
OF a person because he may belong 70
a labor union.
The case Is that Of A. j.. Bemis,
formerly manager of the oklahoma
city Railway company. He WAS con
Nicted in the Oklahoma county court
on a misdcmeanOr charge and fined
5000 for refusing armcn employment
because they belonged to or might be

rany had considerable trouble and a
general strike resulted which lasted

The criminal court Of appeals In
disposing Of the case cites the opinion
ct the United States supreme court
in the case Of Coppage VS.. Kansas,
i'm which the Kansas law was held
unconstitutional. The Oklahoma
statute was taken Eom the Kansas
law. In that decision the constItu-
tional amendment of the federal IN
stitution relative TO the deprivation
Of the rights and privileges and life
and liberty without due process Of
law is construed. The United states
court held hat the rights of the en-
pioye and employer were equal in
that one was not obliged to employ
another on any given terms; that II
il nm employer desired to dismiss m
SmplCyc for any eason he had the
right to DO SO, Just the same as the
cmplOyc could not quit his emplOvcr il
he desired. The present case, how
ever, does not enter into the ques-
ton Of where there is an existing
contract. The decision simply goes
To- the cases cited. There were mo-
contracts mentioned and none con
sidcred. The right of an employer
to say whether or not an employe
SHOULD be engaged under certain con-
ditions, and whether or not those
conditions constituted coercion, was
the question. The judgment Of the
lower court was reversed.
