ARE YOU COMING DOWN SOON?

This is not an invitation. 1t is just
a warning.
The Spanish" influenza has arriv-
ed on this side of the big pond. It
proves to be ordinary Russian or
American influenza, the same old in
fiuenza that swept over this country
in 1889-90, if you can recall an an
cient event like that
II you plan to come down with it
soon, this is the most satisfactory way
to get along with it:
Cd Go to bed at once and remain
until well. Rest in bed conserves your
vitality, and influenza is a dangerous
" -prostrating or weakening disease.
Obey this rule, and, when you get
well you get well. Keep about and,
when you are about well you will
find you are still far from well, and
that may be your condition for long,
long time.
Cd Especially beware of any al
legged cold or grippe cure or of pain
killing or fever reducing dopes- prac-
tically all of them depend on acetan-
Hide or phenacetin (acetphenetidin)
for their knockout effect. They kill
pain, all right, and pull down fever,
but they seriously weaken the heart
and the blood and hence are danger
GUS remedies in disease which in
itself seriously weakens the patient.
CD Comfortably dressed or covered
in bed, get all the cold, fresh air and
sunlight the season affords.
(4) Unless the bowels are natural
~ active, take one bottle of solution
of citrate of magnesium, which you1
druggist will prepare on order 1t may
| be taken in two or three doses, cold
at intervals of half an hour.
go When you nave influenza Oh
any other acute illness with nose
throat or bronchial symptoms, don't be
dog in the manager; be a human be.
Ing. See that everyone keeps outside
your fve-foot barrage. Always cover
the nose and mouth with l1andkerchie
when coughing or sneezing; in fac
one with such disease is morally
j hound to wear constantly over tht
nose and mouth a mask of two O.
three layers of ordinary cheeseclotl
or gauze, tied in place with tapes o.
strings over head and behind neck
ANY discharge from nose or mouth
or any material expectorated whel
coughing should be received in pape
or cloth and at once burned, or in a re
ceptacle containing a strong disin
fectant such as chloride of lime il
water, or some 5 per cent carboli,
acid solution
i In case you prefer not to come dow
with influenza, this is the way to ge
along without it:
/ ID Keep outside the five-foot bar
rage of every boor who sneezes O
coughs without muzzling his face.
/ CD Refuse to work or sit along
side of ANYBODY who apparently has

 THE GUN LANYARD
Congressman Tells How He Fired
 First Shot at AuStrianS

New York, Jan. 3.--Representatives
 chusetts, who says he fired the first , American shot against Austria in the
 war on December II, returned to an Atlantic port on a French steamship with his right arm in a sling. When his military limousine went over an embankment on December 14 at Monte Grippe on the Italian front, his little finger was broken and he suf- fered several severe contusions As a civilian, he had rendered himself Iia- ble to be shot if captured by the en- emy, MT. Tnkham said and he con- sidered that he had got off lightly.
 Tt happened that had gone to the Italian front" he explained, from Rome, where I received the news that America had declared war against Austria. The house I was stopping at had been shelled all one night and during the next day. While I was having lunch with the Italian officers one of them suggested that I should go into the front lines and fire shot from one of the 149's, which resemble the American six-inch guns, at the en- emy. America has now declared war against Austria the officer continued and why should not the first shot be fired by 2, representative of it's govern ment who happens to be on the spot?
 T had not gone to the Italian front with that idea in my mind, but the temptation was too great to resist. went with the artillery officers and pulled the lanyard as directed. The explosion almost deafened me and the recoil almost swept me off my feet The shell weighed 110 pounds and was filled with high explosives. A captain of artillery, who watched the shell land through his glasses said he be- Heved it was a good hit.
 The situation on the Italian front when I left was critical and tho eco- homie conditions were bad. The Ital- ians are full of courage and will hold their own on the Piave They are fighting bravely and making a stub born resistance under extreme diffi- culties.
 '"The French have reached their top and passed beyond it. They will fight on steadily until the end, but their power of aggression is weakened. Tho British are at the top now and will stay there until the Am erican Army is in full force on the battle front and the enemy is beaten"
 Congressman Tinkham said that he had visited the camps of the American troops and found them training hard and impatient to join in the attacks on the enemy's lines He said that the equipment was not what it should be and said he would prepare a report and submit it to the authorities in Washington.

BOY 0F SEVENTEEN
 AND HIS CONTRACT
For a Youth He Did We'll in Bind-
 ing the Caterer

Cleveland, O., Jan. 3.-When the dean of the cotton trade, Henry Hentz, was a youth of IT, he lived in Philadelphia As gallant then as he is now he induced some young friends to join him in entertaining the ladies at a "complimentary balP' ten dered to a George McMullin. He was anxious that the ladies should be well provided for and determined that the caterer who was engaged to serve them, should have no loop hole of escape if he failed in doing his full duty. He therefore drew up the sub- joined contract in his own handwrit- ing As the production of a boy it is remarkable for it's legal precision, and the quantity of food that young Hentz succeeded in providing for leach lady in attendance" at 50 cents per capita is evidence that the com Dination of Hberality and commercial acumen that has made him success full, was a characteristic of his youth as we'll as his old age. Incidentally ic makes us sad to think how much more it costs to entertain the ladies today than it did when Mr. Hentz was a young man. We are however, some- what consoled by the fact that lemon kisses" have gone out of fashion at least since war was declared. Even now we get some lemons" but they are not kisses. Here is the contract we wonder how many boys of 17 could draft such a, document today.
 Memorandum of Agreement be- tween Jno. J. Foster B. L. Wiley, rJ~b Henry Hentz, Committee on Refresh ments of Ball to Geo. McMullin, of the first, part and Theodore G. Gauss, Confectioner, No. 314 Vine St., of the second part, who agrees to furnish and prepare Refreshments for Ladys at the Complimentary Ball to MT. George McMullin, which is to take place at Sansom St. Hall on Wednes- day evening, April g, 1851.
 The said Theo. G. Gauss agrees to furnish the following courses, viz:
 1. Lemonade, Wine and Mixed cakes.
 2. Ice Cream in fancy moulds, with Large Lemon Kisses.
 B. Coffee, Stewed Oysters, Sand wishes and Mixed cakes to be served up in Lady's Dressing Room from 12 to o'clock.
 4. Mixtures--consisting of Jelly Cakes, Cordial Drops, Portuguese Se- crets, French Almonds, Bon Bons, Babys in Fancy Ornamental Boxes, Sc.
 5. Pound Cake, Wine and Lemon ade, Sc.
 Now it is also agreed by the said Theo. c. Gauss that the refreshments above mentioned is to be of the best quality, to be approved of by said parties of the first part. In case the refreshments are not of the best quail ity the said Theo. c. Gauss is not to be com Densated for his trouble. It is also agreed that if the said Theo. G. Gauss performs this contract in good faith he shall receive the sum of fifty cents fo reach lady in at tendance.
 In Witness thereof the said parties of the first and second part hereunto affix their hand this first day of April Eighteen hundred and fifty-one.
