DANGERS OF DRAFT.

Drafts feel best when we are hot and
perspiring, just when they are most
dangerous and the result is neuralgia,
Stiff Neck, Sore Muscles or sometimes
an attack of rheumatism. In such cases
apply Sloan's Liniment. 1t stimulates
circulation to the sore and painful
part. The blood flows freely and in a
short time the stiffness and pain leave.
Those suffering from neuralgia or
neuralgia headache will find one or
two applications of Sloan's Liniment
will give grateful relief. The agonizing
pain gives way to a tingling sensation
of comfort and warmth and quiet rest
and sleep is possible. Good for neuri-
tis, too. Price 25c, at your druggist.

TALKS ON HEALTH BY
STATE BOARD COMMISSIONER

In southern and southwestern
states a determined effort will be
made during the year 1916 to give
the public the largest possible relief
from hay fever, which is induced
by the pollen of the common rag.Weed
(Abbrosia enthusiastically and the
giant rag week Ambrosia trifda. Men
ton of the name of these weeds in
some communities of the United
States is regarded as JUS, iCatiOn for
"a challenge to fight, so annoying IS
this pest of the field. N"w Orleans
has been the earliest battle-ground in
this national attack upon hay.ferer.
Detailed knowledge of rhe botanical
habits of these plants, and of the
most efficient way to arrest the
spread of their growth may be oo-
tained from the hygienic laboratory
of the United States Public Health
Service at Washington, d. c. The
Oklahoma State Board of Health,
during the last hay fever season, lent
its assistance in calling public atten'
ton to the best known methods Of
giving relief to the public from this
nationwide trouble-maker Happily,
the severe storms in the gulf coast
region last September destroyed the
bulk of the leaves and flowers of
the ragweed plant.
Damage for Sewage Disposal.
Public attention may be called to
the important fact that the Arkansas
state supreme court lately rendered
decision in a suit for damages for
injury to property by the presence Of
septic tank and drainage from it,
which polluted a stream tlowinS
through the plaintiffs land. The court
held that the sewer district was liable
for the amount by which the value o1
the plaintiffs land was deprecated
by reason of the construction and op-
Grafton of the septic tank, but that
no damages could be recovered be-
cause of the acts of the employees
of the municipality in unnecessarily
flushing the tank.
