region of the spine. in the arms and neck-stiff neck. Within twelve hours the patient is unable to move his arms or legs and sometimes cannot talk. Vomiting, delirfum. twitchings and convulsions accompany the progress of the disease. A temperature of from 100 to 106 de- grees lasts two or three days.
 Sometimes, but rarely, the patient has chills, sore throat and skin erup- tions.
 Health is no protection. Often chill dren go to bed apparently well and awake in the night with the first symp- toms and are partly paralyzed by morning.
 Cleanliness is the only known pre- ventive.
 The isolation of children in the house is next in importance.
 Have children wash their hands and faces often.
 Avoid buying candy, ice cream and fruits which are eaten without being cooked from peddlers and storekeepers who are not careful of their wares.
 Don't kiss children on their mouths.
 Keep their noses clean. This applies eSpSClally 10 young DaDleS.
 Don't cough in their faces.
 Protect them from flies.
 The germs of this disease, which are so small that they cannot be seen with microscopes and which pass through germ filters, almost always enter the bodies of their victims through the mu- cous membranes of the nose and throat
 Keep children away from their mates in the streets or at moving picture shows.
 Report all cases at once to the board of health so that the city's doctors can immediately investigate and remove the patients to hospitals.
 Adults are not free from the disease. If your hands are dirty or if you are not careful about the preparation of your childrens food remember that you can give your little ones the disease as readily as can outsiders.

About Handkerchiefs

THE shops, of course, are full of T novelties in handkerchiefs. They are always full these days of novelties In everything. Sometimes it seems that there can be no handkerchief novelties in store for us. so many have we seen in the last few days. but still they como. and still we buy.
 For children. in whom the pictur- ssQue in handkerchiefs is more readily excused than in their elders, there are dainty little colored squares of mus lin, with pictures gayly printed in colors in the corner. One picture shows . small boy feeding a squirrel perched on the tiptop of a diminutive tree. Others show ducks and rabbits, chick sns. kittens and little girls. These handkerchiefs come in pink and blue and green.
 Perhaps 1t is due to the scarcity of dyes. At all events. many of the new colored handkerchiefs are in dull col ors-dull blue and green, dull rose and violet.
 . Linen is not the only fabric from which handkerchiefs are made. Organ die. dimity, crepe de chine and batiste are also used in the sheer handker- chiefs of summer.
 Handkerchtefs in white with colored borders are made to match the blouse with which they are worn, and in such case are, of course. worn rather con- spicuously in the patch pocket which adorns the front of the blouse.
 It Is an old saying that the Egyptians understood the value Of black in bring ing out and harmonizing other coIors. Occasionally We. toe. seize on black. We have done so in reasonable hand kerchiefs. Some of the most attrac- tive of them show a tiny edging of black. sometimes in the nature of a piping. sometimes an embroidered or crocheted edge, sometimes a line woven in the fabric or printed there.

 One, attractive model was of dark blue taffeta. The skirt had wide, out standing pockets, trimmed with flaps of red and blue checked silk. The bod ice was made with long. kimono sleeve and high neck. Bands of check ed silk trimmed the bodice, the collar and the sleeves at the wrist.

WHEN the as thermometer met is slowly can keep our own temperature from doing likewise is to drink copiously of pure water There is nothing so re- freshing or cooling as pure water chilled to a palatable temperature.

He drifted with the tide up the coast looking for safe horbor, and, at what is presumed to be the bay of Sitka, sent boats ashore to explore, and to renew his store of fresh water for the crew. His seamcn did not return to the ship. probably having been killed by the Natives, so, without any further attempt at landing on this coast, he sailed back to Asia. But civilized man had looked upon these shores and slowly the news went out over the world that the northwest coast of America had been visited by the Russians arousing the interest of
