TRAVELETTE
WAR TIME TRAVEL.

THAT the war has taught people
1 how to dispense with luxury is
nowhere better illustrated than in the
conditions Of travel nowadays. The
contrast in train service between the
present just sufficient accommoda-
tons and the luxurious staterooms and
pslatisl extra fare trains Of cou-
pie OF years ago is familiar 70 most
Americans but only those who have
crossed the seas both recently and in
ante-bellum days can realize what a
great change has been wrought there.
In the first place all OF the best
anips are carrying munitions ana SOL
diers so that the passenger Is apt to
find himself on a boat about the size
Of the caravei in which Columbus
made the first transatlantic voyage.
Instead Of the roomy cabin. with hot
and cold water that a moderate fare
purchased a short time ago he OBJ
tains for double price the privilege Of
sharing a cramped cabin with two or
three other passengers and the water
for his morning ablution is very
likely poured out Ct tin can into a
cracked basin.
As for the dances on brilliantly
lighted decks TO the music OF bands
the games Of shuttle a board and
hop scotch. the brilliant gatherings in
sumptuously furnished salOons-all Of
those things are memories OF the days
when the world had money and energy

The disease now spreading over this country is
highly catching and may invade your community and
attack you and your family unless you are very care
full.
Influenza a crowd disease Therefore keep out
OF crowds much possible
influenza probably spreads mostly by inhaing
of the tiny droplets of germ-laden mucus
sprayed into the air when ignorant careless persons
cough without using handkerchief. There
fore cover up each cough and sneeze.
Influenza probably spread also by the filthy habit
Of splitting sidewalks, street and other public
places Therefore do not spit on the floor side
walk.
Influenza is probably spread also by the use of
drinking cups and the of towels
in public places Therefore shun the drinking
cup and the roller towel in public places.
If you feel sick and believe you have Spanish in

important Don't get up too Your heart feels
