stating that n brother, Nat Morris
was dead at Breckenridge of the same
disease. Mr.. Morris is lying serious
ly i'll at his home five miles above Ohio
City. The sad news came as a great
shock, his condition making it doubly
hard.
George kessler Morris was born in
Pueblo, December End, 1884, and died
at Breckenridge November End, 1918.
He came to this part of the country
with his parents in 1908, settling near
Ohio City, where he has since lived.
In 1918, he married Miss Linda Balm
of Parlins. A few months ago, lit
tie son, Robert kessler, came to glad
den their home. Besides his wife and
baby, he leaves n father and mother,
Mr.. and Mrs. George Morris of Gold
Creek, and a sister, Mrs. Prince kins-
ley. of Denver.
A short time ago, he began work at
the Royal Tiger mine near Brecken-
ridge. Two weeks before his death,
ne returned for his family. They had
been living there but few days when
he was stricken with the Flu, which
caused his death later. Because of
the strict quarantine, the body will
not be brought home for burial until
some later date.
1t is with deep regret that the en-
tire community learns of his untimely
death. Our hearts go out in sympa-
thy to the young wife and little son
in their great loss of husband and
father, and to the parents who have
lost their only SON in their declining
years.
Nat Morris
Nat Morris was born in Pueblo on
August 4th, 1872, and died at Brecken-
ridge November 4th, 1918. He leaves
no immediate family, but a number OF
brothers and sisters. His death will
be much regretted by friends who low
ed him for his genial manner and
kindly smile. He was kind hearted
and obliging to everyone. He was a
great favorite with all children who
considered him the best of playmates.
He had been in Breckenridge but a
few weeks, when death claimed him.
1nterment will be in the cemetery
there.

HEALTH TALK
SPANISH INFLUENZA OR GRIP
BIZ DR. LEE II. SMITH.

An old enemy is with us again, and
whether we fight German or n germ,
We must put up good fight, and not be
afraid. The influenza runs a very brief
course when the patient is careful, and
If we keep the system in good condition
and throw off the pOisons which tend to
accumulate within our bodies, We can
escape the disease. Remember these
three C's-a clean mouth, n clean skin,
and clean bowels. To carry off poisons
from the system and keep the bowels
loose, daily doses of pleasant laxative
should be taken. Such a one is made
OF May-apple, leaves OF aloe, root Of
jalap, and called DR.. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets. Hot lemonade should be used
freely il attacked by a cold, and the
patient should be put to bed after hot
mustard foot-bath.
To prevent the attack OF bronchitis or
pneumonia and to control the pain,
Anuric tablets should be obtained at the
drug store, and one given every two
hours, with lemonade. The Anuric tab
lets were first discovered by DIR. Pierce,
and, as they flush the bladder and
cleanse the kidneys, they carry away
much of the poisons and the uric acid.
1t is important that broths, milk, but
termilk, ice-cream and simple diet
be given regularly to strengthen the sys-
TEN and increase the vital resistanc nee.
The fever is diminished by the use OF the
Anurie tablets, but in addition, the fore
head, arms and hands may be bathed
with water (tepid in which table
spoonful OF salaratus has been dissolved
in quart. After an attack of grip or
pneumonia to build up and strengthen
the system, obtain at the drug store .
