GRAVE DANGER OF INFANTiLE
PARALYSIS IN MAIL ORDERS

Atlanta Sept 30.-The danger OF
transmitting the germs of infantile
paralysis in packages purchased from
mail order houses in cities where ba-
bies are dying by the thousands from
this strange and terrible plague is be-
ing called to the attention to the peo-
pie by health authorities and news
papers over the South. 1t is pointed
out that packages wrapped by chill
dren coming from the slums of New
York are very likely TO contain the
germs of the dread disease, and some
cities have gone so far as to enforce
guarantees against this particular
form of transmission. Thus far the
cities of the south have been compar-
atively free from infantiie paralysis,
but there is no parent who does not
shudder to contemplate the results OF
a spread Of the disease to this section.

IN MEMORIAN

The death angel visited the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Jenkins and took from them their little nephew, Ed Wiggins.
 He was born Aug. 3. 1903 and died Jan. 1, 1916, He was sick only eight days. The doctor said he had an abscess on the lungs.
 He was born in St. Clair Coun- ty, Ala, and his parents moved to Prescott about seven years ago. His mother died Septem- Der 1914 and his father died in March 1915.
 He leaves three brothers and two sisters, and he has one brother dead.
 His mother and father being dead he was living with his uncle and aunt six miles from Gale. They had been living there only six weeks. They nov ed from four miles south west of Prescott. Ed seemed to en- joy his new home and little school mates so much and loved hic taachar So well
 He wanted to see his younger brother. Frank. who lives two miles north of Prescott. and was going to see him just.as soon as he got able. He seemed to think everyday that tomorrow he would be able to sit up. He certainly took his medicine good and bore his suffering with ease. He al- ways wanted to go to Sunday school every Sunday sud studied his lessons well.
 Sleep on, dear one. enjoy your
 rest,
 Your soul is now at home Among the true, the pure and
 blessed
 Where sorrow cannot come. Sleep on, sleep. on and take your
 rest
 In Gods eternal lane. And by and by at his behest, We shall meet above.

Q. why do you worry and why dc
 you fuss? It's dollars to doughnuts that
 things might be "wuss. ' Pray what in the world are you
 hoping to gain When by day ani by night you
 simply complain? A laugh is worth more than a
 river of tears: An ounce of bright hope than a .ss=@ ton of dark fears, A cheer beats groan by hun
 dred to one, And growling's capital habit
 to shun. To double your trouble and add
 to your care. Keep talking about them, yes, sf no matter where; But would you get rid of your
 burdens of grief? Forget that you have them, you
 Fl soon find relief. If nobody had any trouble hut
 you, Do you know what think to you
 we would do? We'd encase you in glass and
 write Heres a man Unlike any other since mortals
 began. ' If we never had storms, no rain
 bows we'd see. And a very great loss that surely
 would be; Take heart, and take hope then,
 and seek to live so That to others the right way to
 live you may show.

No one is so independent as the farmer; he doesn't have to truckle; if he is insulted he can resent the insult without fear of losing trade, and there is no earthly reason. with the improy- ed farm machinery he now has in use why he should not have an 8-hour day and such leisure for reading and study as would soon make him one of the best informed men in any calling. Why shouldn't the farmer be all this and more? Surely he has the possibilities.
