 The presence of other diseases $ the gr,at predisposipg cause of Pneumonia. They prepare the Soil for invasion. Holding first rank in this categc ry is influenza, the increased
 incidence of pneuIon at this time being largely due to the present cpl demic of la grippe. Individuals suf- fering from this infection are pecul- iarly susceptible to respiratory com plications and should properly observe every hygienic rule. Inflam- maticn of the upper air passages, pharyngitis, bronchitis, and tonsillitis often predispose to the development of the disease, particularly among the aged and infirm. The acute con- tagious diseases of childhood, more especially measles and whooping cough, frequent prepare the way for pneumonia. Anyone who through neglect or carelessness permits the spread of these infections is there- fore op2n to the severest condemna. ton. Exhausting disease of whatever ra.ure, is often sufficient to so re- duce our resistance that we are un- able to cope with organisms which should be easily overcome, and hence predisposes to the infection.
 Debility, either temporary or chronic. developing from any cause, increases susceptibility. Because oi this the disease most often attacks those at the extreme of life. Among facilitating influences must be men toned cold. exposure to penetrating winds, and the chilling of body sur facss as 3 result of wetting.

 Another source of money that is
 now going to waste in this country is peanut shells. A Southern business man, however, was thrifty enough to find a use for them so they are now ground and used in Pittsburgh for polishing tinplate, and after that the oily substance is sold in packages as a sweeping compound.
 Luck does not figure in fortunes made from such small beginnings any more than it figured in Russell Sage's fortune. MT. Russell Sage always said there was no such thing as luck, for he started out as a grocery clerk at one dollar a week. But he was contented and ambitious and as his wages slowly increased he saved al- ways little, till at the age of twenty one he had a store of his own. Later he sold the store and went to New York where he took a place as office boy at very low wages. But he worked himself steadily Up until he became financier himself. MT. Sage believed that ahy one could succeed if he would. but that most young men arc not anxious to rise. Of course, he said, if they found themselves rich they were glad, but they were not willing to work and make themselves rich. "I never knew any one," MT. Sage is quoted as saying, Ito obtain lasting wealth without lots of hard .-1.Se

FLOOD SITUATION IMPROVING,

Reports from all sections of South cast Arkansas, inundated by the flood ia the Arkansas river. indicate thai tkc situation is Improving slowly. It is improving to the extent that It IS b lieved all danger of loss cf life by drowning is passed. It is reared however, that the loss of life was gl cater than has yet been reported and that the list of dead will be in- creased by reports from isolated sec ton.
 The need for relief work is expect ed tc' be great, since most of tho refugees have lost nearly all they possessed. When people are battling for life itself, they have no time for thought of the innsr man but when the crisis has passed, and they fini themselves half-naked and destitute. they discover they are afflicted with a great hunger.
 And it is this cry of the hungry. tie naked and the homeless that will swell to greater tone in the next few days. 'b
 Pine Bluff has generously rushed to the aid of the victims, and every thing possible has been done by the big-heart2d people of this city to render assistance to the flood sui ferers. Even before The Graphic undertook to raise relief fund. self sacrificing men of the city had dis patched boats to the stricken section.
 Contributions continue to come to The Graphic's relief fund, and the money is being expended with care to obtain the greatest relief possible for each dollar expanded. Every cent is buying comfcrt for the victims, anu not a penny is being wasted or paid for distribution of the fund. Those d-sbursing she charity for the people are contributing their services gratuitously and without hope of re- Wdiu, save tHe Si Si"tIlNotlou tH"I comes from the discharge of a duty to humanity in an efficient and con scientious manner.
 Pine Bluff people have again provsd themselves to be worthy fol- lowers of the good samaritan. No cry of the suffering goes unheeded if heard by Pine Bluff ears.

Ten per cent of tho deaths in the United states result from pneur onia. It is estimated that during the past thirty days this rate has been doubled iL some sections Tuberculosis and heart disease, each causing one- ninth of all fatalities, are the only diseases which outrank pneumonia among the legion of the men of death, but in certain cities pneumonia is steadily increasing and even has sur passed the mortality from tubercu- losis. Seventy per cent of all cases occur between December and May. It is distinctly a cold weather infec- tion. seemingly brought by wintry blasts, but especially prevalent dur ing the winter season only because it's victims are rendered more sus- ceptible at that time by exposure. de bilitating influences and the pres once of pedisposing infections.

work. For instance Judge Martin E. Moran of Alaska, plans to import Angora goats to that territory to feed on the reindeer moss which grows plentifully there. Judge Moran sees great future in the Angora indus try. Three million acres of logged off lands in Western Oregon and Washington are being cleaned by these goats and at the same time they furnish meat and Angora wool, the importation of which has been cut down by the war. Angora wool is a staple and brings from $l to $S a pound raw, the first grades being used in the manufacture of the most expensive grades of mohair and plush. 3t

It is in truth the handmaiden of pneumonia, and there is none more certain or more sure of success, especially if liberal ly and continuously used.
 While the foregoing facts consti- tute in part our knowledge of the reasons for the widespread dissemi- nation of an infection which carries with it mortality of from ten to thirty per cent, it should be remem- bered that our scientific data are not yet complete. There are problems connected with immunity, predispo- sition, and the occurrence of epidemics i which are yet to be solved. It is known that pneumonia frequently at tacks those who are perfectly well,
 and who apparently have observed every hygienic rule. whether this is due to the increased virulence of the organism or to other causes is unex-
 plained. It S, however, recognized that avoidance of the factors so brief ly enumerated will in large part d.
 minish individual susceptibility and therefore the incidence of the disease.
