CHAPTER CXN-

'1 wac not alarmed or even i'm
pressed by the drivers warning"
continued Edgar Swan, after a mo-
ment's pause. at seemed to me that
he might very well be prejudiced
against my companion on his coach,
who, as had noticed, had treated
him with scant consideration. l.
therefore, merely laughed lightly,
and said that in any case 1 should
not travel further than Dielitz that
day. Whereat the driver grunted
some inaudible remark, and made
no further attempt to interfere with
my plans.
'T was finishing a solitary meal
when / heard the clatter of wheels
in the yard without, and, glancing
from the window, / saw that a
curious conveyance, drawn by two
large, black horses, had drawn up
near the door of the inn. won

as the horses have rested we will

will take a stroll with me, will

Accordingly we walked over to
the piece Of bare ground where
had seen the vans, and here
found everything in a hustle as IL
preparing for departure. These
good people, explained ValenskI,

travels. They will journey west

Of them may penetrate as far as
America, to visit their brethren in
your country. My friend and kjas-
man, Lorski, will certainly go
there, he and his niece, cara.

''She merely laughed again, and

Nalenski. And it is not always

Dear Miss Fairfax

Dear Miss Fairfax:
About fve months ago I met
young sailor and learned to love
him very much, and thought he
cared about me- But the last time
he came home he said we were
through being sweetheartS, but We
would continue to be friends. and
IL wrote to him he would write
to me. Since then he has been
near my home and is there at
present, and 1 have tried hard to
see him. but haven't been very
successful. Will you kindly ad-
wise me what to do?

The Surgeon General warned espe-

COLDS" that hang on.
These, he explained, were often the
beginning Of tuberculosis. II you do
not get we'll promptly, II your cold

strength decline, remember that
these are often the early signs Of
tuberculosis. Place yourself at once
under the care Of competent phys
ician. Tuberculosis is durable in the
early stages.
above all do not trust to mislead-
ing statements Of unscrupulous
patent medicine takers. There -is
no specific medicine for the cure OF
tuberculosis. The money spent on
such medicines is thrown away; 1t
should be spent instead for good food

"Then you consider this a serious
menace?" was asked ''In my opin-
ion 1t is, though 1 hasten to add 1t is
distinctly one against which the peo-
pie can guard. So far as one can es-
innate there are at present about
one million cases of tuberculosis in
the United States. There is unfor-
tunately no complete census available
to show exactly the lumber of tuber-
culosis persons in each state despite
the fact that most of the states have
made the disease reportable. In New
York city, where reporting has been
in force for many years, over $4,000
cases of tuberculosis are registered
with the Department of Health
Those familiar With the situation be-
lieve that the addition of unrecog-
nized and unreported cases would
make the number nearer $4,000.
The very careful health survey con-
Quoted during the past two years in
birmingham, Mass, revealed 200
cases of tuberculosis in a population
Of approximately $4,000. If these
proportions hold true for the United
States as whole they would indicate
that about one in every hundred per-
sons is tuberculous. Each of these
constitutes source of danger to be
guarded against
In his statement to the public Sur;
geon General Blue points out how
those who have had influenza should
protect themselves against tuberculo-
sis. "All who have recovered from
Influenza" says the Surgeon General,
should have their. lungs carefully
examined by competent physician.
In fact, 1t is desirable to have several
examinations made a month apart.
Such examinations cannot be made
through the clothing nor can they be
carried out in three minutes. II the
lungs are found to be free from tu-
bercuYosis every effort should be
made 10 keep them so. This can be
done by right living. good food and

Washington, d. C.-According to
a report made to the United States
Public Health Service, the epidemic
OF influenza in Spain has already
caused an increase in the prevalence
and deaths from pulmonary tubercu-
lUsis. A similar association between
Influenza and tuberculosis was recent
ly made by Sir Arthur Newsholme,
the chief medical officer of the En-
gliSh public health service, in his
analysis of the tuberculosis death
rate in England.
In order that the people of the
United States may profit by the ex-
pefience of other countries Surgeon
General Rupert Blue of the United
States Public Health Service has just
issued a warning emphasizing the
need tOf special precautions at the
present time. Experience seems to
indicate" says the Surgeon General,
"that persons whose resistance has
been weakened by an attack Of influ-
enza are peculiarly susceptible to
tuberculosis. With millions of its
people recently affected with influ-
enza this country now offers condi-
lions fauoring the spread of tubercu-
lOsia."
