DON'T J|CGLE THE
TELEPHONE HOOK

A small signal lamp lights
up in front of the operator
when you lift your receiver.
This tells the operator that
you want a number.
Jerk the receiver hook up
and down rapidly and this
light will not burn, and you
have cut yourself off from
the central Office.
If the operator does not
answer promptly, or if you
want to recall her after you
have had one number, move
the receiver hook up and
down very slowly.
After central" answers,
call your number very slow
" and distinctly.
Also be sure you have the
right number.

AIR IS SENT THROUGH WATER
Attachment for Electric Fan Increases the Cooling Capacity Of That
 Apparatus Many Times.

A clever and useful attachment for the electric fan, designed by n Los Angeles inventor, according to Science Monthly, consists of n tin wheel which can he hooked on any electric fan and which will increase its cooling capac- fly many times.
 The spokes or propellers of this wheel are made of finc-mesh screen. The lower part of the wheel whirs in n tank which Is filled with cold water. The electric fan causes the screen pro pellers to revolye and they dip into the little tank, throwing up small amount of water on the upward turn.
 The air is sent through the water and Is cooled, purified and cleaned. Perfume, disinfectant. or n medicat- edOiquid may be used instead of water.

Eoppery of a Genius.

William Congreve. whose play, "The Double Dealer" was revived recently by the London Stage Society. was sore trial in one respect to Dr. John son. Congreve enio.ed much recogIs ton of his work, and Queen Anne was present at the first performance of The Double Dealer He, however, always preferred to win applause as Il man of fashion rather shan man of letters. This "ingratitude. as he described 1t. outraged Johnson. He tells of how Congreye. on one oc- easion. received visit from Voltaire, and "disgusted him by the despicable foppery of desiring to be considered not as an author but a gentleman; to which the Frenchman replied that If he had been only gentleman he should not have come to visit him.

From State Board of Health
Little Rock. Ark,
 Nov. l7th, 1917.


 To the Pubic-
 A good deal of uneasness has been occasioned by the appearance of sever al cases of tetanus in the state and es- pecially by the report of tetanus sent out by the City Health Department of Memphis. The State Board of Health has made a very thorough canvass of the situation and herewith submits the following report of the cases notified:
 Since May of this year. fifteen cases of tetanus have occurred within the state. with nine deaths. Twelve cases occurred outside of the city of Little Rock. with six deaths. Of these twelve cases. four who had not been vaccina- ted developed the disease. one from q gun shot wound; one following pune ture wound of the foot with rusty nail I; another following introduction of needle in the foot; and the other from crush nr injury to the foot. Of the other eight. all of them had sores or abra Sions of the skin somewhere on the body One of them had received an in jury to the foot by rusty iron; another had stuck q splinter through his toe; another had sores on legs and punetare wound in the heel stimulating nail pune tnre. and mad been riding bareback q great deal; another had had the seab from vaccination knocked off ny whip and the wound was dressed with dirty cloth. another had sores on legs and feet which were supposed to be the en- trance of infection
 Another point about most of the cases is that tetanus developed four or five weeks after vaccination. In some instances after the vaccination had practically healed The incubation per iod of tetauus is from ten to fourteen days Thus il would seem that m prac ticaliy all of the cases at least vac eiHation was not responsible for the tetanus.
 of the five deaths in Memphis. two cases had not been vaccinated and no tetanus bacilli were found in the virus fhe three cases in Little Rock ar problematical.
 \ recent communication from Sus Eepn General Blue and Surgeon Genef a Gorgas states that no evidence has been found to indicate that tetanus was present in any of the vaccine virus, and further urges that no backward steps be taken and insists that any modification of the vaccination order at this time would be disastrous

ferent sections of the state, and ad joining states are complaining that smallpox contacts are coming out of Arkansas and spreading the disease.
 In view of the above findings and the message from the Surgeons General. and further that no cases of tetauus have occurred during the past three weeks, the Board feels that the com puisory vaccination order should not be modified Many of the counties have already compiled and many other coGn- ties are complying as rapidly as nossi- ble Therefore. the order will remain in full force and effect.
 It Is further becoming necessary to issue compulsory vaccination orders to require all persons of all ages to be vaccinated in certain restricted districts where smallpox has gotten out from under control of the local health au- thorities and many contacts have re- suited
 The following precautions are urged by the Federal. state and local health authorities. namely, that the field of vaccination be thoroughly sterilized; that sterile gauge dressing be applied thereafter as soon as the virus has dried; and that it be redressed with sterile dressings as often thereafter as Is necessary; and that shields be dis continued. As soon as the blister ap- pears following vaccination, if it Is touched up lightly with tincture of io- dine 1t will soon disappear and prevent q severe sore.

 Mrs. Ella Johnson, nee Clayton, was born in Clayton. La, in 1854, and died in Dermott. Ark, Nov. 23, 1917.

FACTS ABOUT STAPLE FOODS


American born housewives as a rule,
are slow In taking advantage Of that
famous all-the-w0rld-over dellcacy,
generally known as dry or summer
sausage. There seems 10 be no reason
for this, except perhaps that It fills no
particular place on the American table,
and we have not become accustomed
to relying on It for sandwich filling,
cold meats courses, school luncheons,
and so forth.
This Is a pity, for the advantages OF
the dry sausage are many and varied,
as a little investigating Will show. IL

highly concentrated, nourishlng food,
and 1t Is economical, for a little Of It

The dry sausage needs no cooking
IL Is ready for the table. Sometimes
It is smoked, again, as In the case
Of most italian makes, cured simply by
spices and peppers. The sausage rep
resents the result Of scientific season
ing, and sausage making holds as many
secrets as there are flavors In the cas-.
