NEEDLE HOLDER.

An inexpensive but very useful con. trivance to hold knitting needles is made as follows: Take a piece of wide elastic about one and one-half inches longer than the knitting needles Then turn both ends up about three-fourths of an inch, form ing pockets by sewing the sides firmly, buttonholing the raw edges. Insert the points of needles into one of the pockets and stretching it insert the other ends of the knitting needles into the other pocket. This arrangement keeps the needles from sliding out of the work and holds the garment in place. The elastic can be secured in various colors to match the knitting bag. It also may be embroidered very daintily.

SPANISH INFLUENZA DISCOVERED IN SIX
 U. s. SEAPORT TOWNS
Surgeon General Blue Ad- mits European Pandemic Has Reached America.

wASHINGTON, Sept 1S.-Surgeon General Blue, of the Public Health Service, has made telegraphic survey to determine the extent of Spanish in- f1uenza in the United States. General Blue has found there was a sharp out break at Fort. Morgan, near Mobile, Ala, in August, and at about the same time a tramp steamer arrived at New port News with almost the entire crew prostrated.
 Philadelphia posted a few cases some four weeks ago, and few have beeen reported from New York. The Boston outbreak was reported Sep tember Il, since when the pandemic has appeared at New London, while New Orleans has not wholly escaped.
 "The disease is characterized by sudden onset" said Dr. Blue today, People are stricken on the street, while at work in factories. shipyards, offices, or elsewhere. First, there is chill, then fever with temperature from 101 to 1O3 headache, backaohe, redenning and running eyes. pains and aches all over the body, and general prostration. PersonSSso attacked should go to thelr homes al once, ger to Deo without delay, and immediately call a physician.
 ! ''Treatment under direction of the physician is simple but important, con- sistihg principally of rest in bed, fresh 1 air, abundant food, with Dovers pow der for the relief of pain. Every case with fever should be regarded as seri- ous, and kept in bed at least until tenn perature becomes normal.
 1 Convalescence requires careful man agement to avoid serious complications
 such as bronchial pneumo1la, which
 not infrequently may have fatal ter
 imitation. During the present outbreak

 and aspirin have been most generally

The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1918-09-10

Last winter may be cited as an involuntary
example Of the improvement in health that may
come with decreased consumption of coal. In
New York City, and in the East generally, the
months of December and January were 'phehom-
enally cold. Ordinarily under such conditions
the death rate increases greatly. Last year. on
the contrary it was less than in preceding years.
Apparently the necessity for economy in the use
of coal caused many people to adopt part of the
program which study of the worlds health
seems to demand. They did not go to the full
length advocated in this article, but they lived
in houses that were cooler and more variable than
usual. Other causes doubtless played part, but
the condition of the air must have been of much
Importance. Another winter wise and scientific
policy on the part of the nation as whole ought
to make it possible materially to decrease the con-
sumption of coal and at the same time appre-
ciably improve health.

Catarrh

Is Dangerous

How to Recognize and Treat.

Thousands of people suffer more or

and stomach acidity and call 1t indiges-

due to gastric Catarrh of the stomach"
writes a New York Physician.
Catarrh of the stomach is dangerous
becau the mucous membrane lining
ing of phlegm covers the surface SO
that the digestive fluids cannot mix
with the food and digest them. This
condition soon breeds deadly disease
The blood Is polluted and carries the
infection throughout the body. Gas
trio ulcers are apt to form and fire.
quently an ulcer is the first sign of
deadly cancer
In catarrh of the stomach a good
and safe treatment is. to take before
meals a teaspoonful of pure Bisurated
Magnesia in half glass of hot water
as hot as you can comfortably drink 1t.
The hot water washes the mucus from
the stomach walls and draws the blood
to the stomach while the bsurated
magnesia is an excellent solvent for
mucus and increases the efficiency OF
the hot water treatment. Moreover the

Hold Your Liberty Bonds

The effort to separate Liberty Bond holders
not familiar with stock and bond values from
their Liberty Bonds has taken new turn The
manipulators instead Of offering to buy the bonds
at inadequate prices offer in exchange for them
the stocks and bonds Of various wildcat corpora
tions, whose face value is large but whose actual
value is little or nothing.
The safest investment in the world is a Lib
erty Bond. For patriotic American, Liberty
Bonds are the best investment in the world 1t
is not only a wise thing to hold them, it is pat
riotc thing to do. The soldier that takes trench
and then voluntarily gives it up is not to be COM
pared with one who takes trench and holds it
against the enemy. An American who buys a
Liberty Bond and then sells it is not so good an
American as one who buys a bond and holds it..
This does not apply, however, to one who sells
his bond because of real necessity; there is le-
gitimate trading in Liberty Bonds which the
treasury recognizes.
1t was wise and patriotic colored American
who refused to sell his 500 Liberty Bond for 500,
because he would not give up the United States
promise (his bond) to pay him 500 with interest
for the United States promise Currency to pay
him $685. and who refused to sell the same bond
for $1O2, because, he said, that the $1O2 must be
counterfeit or else the would-be purchaser would
not be willing to give it for only $100. 1t is safe
to say that there are no gold bricks or wildcat
securities among that Americans assets-The
