THE HOUSEHOLD FUEL COAL
SITUATION.

OFFICIAL:-At a recent meeting OF the
Fuel Conservation Bureaus of New Eng
land the Federal Fuel Administrator
plainly stated that there was serious
shortage in anthracite coal OF the sizes
adapted to domestic use. There seems
to be little reason for thinking that those
who have received the two thirds of
their usual supply will have any more at
any time during the winter or the spring.
Acute as the household fuel coal situa-
ton was last year, it bids 1air to be still
worse this winter.
The State Fuel Wood Committee for
Maine made a vigorous campaign for
wood cutting last winter with the result
that more than double the usual amount
of fire wood was cut. Some towns have
arranged for wood yards and contracted
for wood that is available for their cltl-
zens
It is earnestly urged that householders
refrain from using hard coal during the
comparatively mild weather of the late
fall and early winter; that wood be used
as fuel for cooking; that starting tires IN
house furnaces be delayed as long as
safety to health will permit; and that
when the fires are started in house heat
ers that wood be used for the fuel until
severe weather comes on. 1t the coal
now on hand is burned in the warmer
months of fall and winter there is likely
to be great suffering in the cold month OF
February and the trying weather that
March usually brings.

THE NEED CONTINUES.

In a recent speech on Americas spirit
in the war, DR.. Ray Lyman Wilbur
quotes France and England as saying to
Germany:-"The Nation that has sent
the type of men that America has sent to
France will never 60 back on them or 90
back on the soldiers and people lighting
with those men," upon which DR.. Wilbur
comments as follows:
'tThat is the spirit we have put into
this war. That is the spirit OF those
noble men who have gone to France, the
men of the Army and the Navy. Faith
in those men has given the people over
there faith in US, so that they are willing
to 60 on.
"But they cannot go on without food.
This year America sent IL, $40, 600 tons OF
foodstuffs across the Atlantic. Next
year she is pledged to furnish II, $50, OOO
tons In normal prewar times the figure
was 5, 533, O0O tons.
'To be ready to meet this increased
need, food conservation must be lntensl-
fled. Every individual must keep within
his sugar ration, must eat only Victory
bread, must follow each succeeding regu-
lation of the Food Administration faith
fully and periodically, and must eat not
a morsel of food that he does not need, In
order that America may continue to
show to the Allies the spirit that wins. ~
Even if the war should end this year, the
necessity for increased production and
for conservation will continue at least
till the harvests of 1919 are gathered.

THE MAKING OF OUR FLAG.

The first national flag had 10 alternate
stripes of red and white, with English
red and white crosses on the blue held In
the upper left-hand corner. This nag
was first raised with a salute of IL guns
at Washington's headquarters at Cam
bridge. Mass, on Jan. l, ITO
Iieut John Paul Jones holsted the flag
on his battleship, Alfred, saying: Tins
flag floats for the first time over an
American man-of war.
On account of the English crosses on
this flag. it was not satisfactory, so in
Nav. 1777. Congress, then in session in
Philadelphia, appointed Gen. Washing-
ton. Robert Morris and Col. George Ross
committee to report on new flag. ihey
consulted Betsy Ross, widow, and she
suggested and made flag with IL alter
nate red and white stripes, with IL point
ed white stars on the blue field. Betsy
Ross continued making flags for several
wears and this was the flag of the Revo-
luton.
In 1871 Vermont came into the Union
and in 1892 Kentucky, this making Is
stripes and Is stars, which was the flag
of the war of 1872 and known as the Star
Spangled Banner. By 1916 four more
stars were added and Congress adopted
the plan of 13 original stripes, with star
to be added for each State as it came into
the Union.
The flag had 29 stars in the Mexican
war IS in the Civil war. As in the Span

SPANISH
INFLUENZA
RACES IN us.
Thousands of Cases Reported
With Many Deaths.
THOSE WHO ARE MOST
SUSCEPTIBLE TO IT
A-TIVES"-The Wonderful
Fruit Medicine-Greatiy Helps
To Resist This Disease.

The epidemic of Spanish Influenza
which played such havoc in Europe,
has reached this continent. Thou.
sands of cases of the strange malady
have appeared and many deaths are
already reported; Surgeon G eneTal
Blue of the United States Public
Health Service having stated that
spanish Influenza will probably
spread all over the country in
six weeks''.
Practically every ship which
touches our shores from abroad,
brings those infected with the
disease.
Surgeon-General Blue urges that
''the individual take all the precau-
tions he can against contracting
the disease by care and personal
hygiene''. Plenty of exercise should
be taken; the dietshould beregulated,
Spanish Influenza affects most
severely elderly persons and others
whose powers of resistance are
weakened by illness, work or worry,
especially those who are "run downs
or "not feeling up to the marks
SiCtIt lOul
disease is not SO much in the disease
itself, as that it often develops into
pneumonia.
What everyone needs now is a
general tonic like "Fruit-a -tives''.
This wonderful fruit medicine is not
a germ-killer. It is a body builder;
a strength maker; a blood purifier;
a power in protecting against the
ravages of disease.
Fruit a tives" regulates the
kidneys and bowels, causing these
organs to eliminate waste regularly
and naturally as nature intended.
'Fruit-a- tives" keeps the skin active,
and puriies and enriches the blood.
Fruit a tives'' tones up and
strengthens the organs of digestion,
insuring food being properly digested
and assimilated.
Everyone can take ordinary pre-.
cautions, avoid crowded places, and
use "Fruft "a tives'' regularly to
insure sound digestion, to keep the
bowels and kidneys regular and the
whole system in the best possible
condition. Then we are safe from
disease.
''Fruit-a-tives" is sold by dealers
everywhere at SOC box, 6 for $3.50,
trial size Csc or sent postpaid on
receipt of price by FRUIT-A-TIVES
Limited, OGDENSBURG, N. Y.
