health ss far us safely possible on the
shoulders of the women in the home.
There is nothing SO dangerous as
"amateur nursing" that is giving med
icine without the doctors orders, but
there are certain things she can safely
do for them when they are sick.
First of ali don't be afraid of "catch-
ing" contagious disease, but take
proper precautions, and then believe
that you and your family will keep
we'll.
Remember that a great number OF
communicable diseases are spread by
actual contact with the germ causing
them. These germs, as In the cases
of Influenza and pneumonia, are ex-
PEELED into the air when the sick per-
son coughs, sneezes, talks forclbly or
carelessly expectOrates.
When you are near such person
protect yourself by placing your hand
kerchief over your mouth and nose.
When you cough or sneeze, whether
sick or well, protect your neighbOr by
covering your own mouth and nose.
Avoid crowds and stay out in the
open air as much as possible. Stay
away from poorly ventilated places,
such as moving picture theaters and
crowded cars. Don't visit your neigh
Dor with a contagious disease unless
your services are needed. If you do
60, take proper precautions not to in
hale the germ, and wash your hands
after touching the patient or anything
belonging to him.
Get plenty of sleep; keep your bed
room windows wide open, but don't
let your body get chilled. Use extra
covering when necessary. Ignorance
and carelessness can spoil the best
living conditions, and sometimes,
even In the country, fresh air and sun
shine are excluded from sleeping and
living rooms. Keep the living room
we'll ventilated and not too warm.
Never use common drinking cups,
common towels, powder puifs belonging
to someone else, and, above all, keep
the hands clean. 1t Is hardly pos
sible to overemphasize the Importance
of keeping the hands clean.
The human hand is 4 great carrier
of disease germs both to and from
the body. If unclean hands could be
kept away from the mouth especially
and washed before touching food,
have no doubt that many diseases
might be avoided.
These measures are the purely me.
chanical means of preventing the
spread of contagion. 1t Is reassuring
to know, however, that really well

A rundown condition, either from
overwork or worry, is dangerous be.
cause such a person more easily con-
tracts disease.
To stay well keep your body clean
use water and soap frequently; change
your clothes often, and wear wraps
suitable to the weather.
Don't take baths that are either too
hot or too cold. Warm baths are the
best. Don't eat too much food. but
drink plenty of water-at least three
pints day.
If you are unable to be out of doors
part of the day open the windows from
time to time and breathe good fresh
air into your lungs.
Observance of these few simple
rules will lessen the danger of con-
tracing disease.

CHRISTMAS OF LONG AGO
Poignant Pangs Come Instead of
Peace, as Season Causes Thoughts
of the Past.

Christmas, singularly enough for a
festival that is supposed to celebrate
joy, is characterized by sadness. The
time of year, which is supposed to be
fraught with good cheer, is laden with
pain. Instead Of peace, there are ex-
perienced poignant pangs.
Nor is it cynicism which says so !;
the average man in the street will tell
you the same. Neither is grabbed age
sponsor for the crotchets of the time !;
unless, indeed, grabbed age begins in
this hurried era when a man passes
his majority. Nor is the tragic contrast
between the cloud, which now for the
fifth Christmas darkens Europe and
the world, and the bright star of Beth
lehem the reason for the somber tone
that sounds beneath the gay notes of
the season, as the deep diapason of the
organ rolls beneath the ripping mel
ody. No; it is none Of these things
which imparts to Christmas the SOM
berness which is apparent to every
body who has passed into years of ma
turity.
It's memory that does it. Memory
plays tricks with us on these days.
Perhaps more than on any other holt
day our minds revert to ChristmaseS
that used to be. We like to think about
it; we like to read the Christmas
Carol, because it puts in everlasting
words the emotion of gladness which
used to dominate that day. No mat
ter how humble the home, memory
paints it in wonderful colors on this
one day, from the time We jumped
frors the warm bed long before dawn
and scampered across the cold floor
to get the stocking which somehow
had been stuffed during the night, to
the end of the plethoric home festival,
when, candy-smeared and filled to the
point of repletion we We're rescued
frou the wreck of toys and packed
wNarily off to sleep, more or less
troubled with painful suggestions of
turkey and mince pie.
There is only one thing that can
make Christmas real to a grown-up,
and that is to do something for some
body who cannot pay it back. That
otherism is, we begin to suspect, the
thing which dominated the Christmas
es that used to be and made them so
real that they remain warm in MEM
