said in praise Of the untirng efforts of
the Banks and others Interested in
putting pickens ''over' in the Fourth

Bank quota was $73, 900 and they
sod $S9, 600 worth of Bonds. The Ke-

they sold $4,000. Everybody who
bought Bonds should see the Honor
Flag in which they had a part in help

AS measure of economy the
publlc are directed by the Post Office
department to use stamps Of the high
est denomination suited to the amount
or postage required on all mail For
example, three.ccnt stamp instead
ol three one cent stamps should be
affixed to letters needing three cents
postage; and tcn-cent stamp instead
OF five two-cent stamps should be
attached to parcels requiring ten cents
postage Cooperation between Post
Office employees and the public in the
sale and use of stamps of the higher
denominations will effect great saw
ing to the Government in the cost of
producing transporting and cancel
ling them, and will benefit the public
IN mirimiZng the number of stamps
handled and affixed to mail This
benefit will be especially important to

parts of the body and feeling Of Sc
we're sickness. In most of the cases the
symptoms disappear after three or four
days, the patient then rapidly recover
ing. Some, Of the patients, however,
develop pneumonia, or Inflammation
of the ear, or meningitis, and many of
these complicated cases die. Whether
this so-called Spanish influenza is
Identical with the epidemics of infuen-
"a of earlier years is not yet known.
"Epidemics of influenza have visited
this country since 1647. 1t is interest
ing to know that this first epidemic
was brought here from Valencia,
Spain. Since that time there have
been numerous epidemics Of the dis
ease. In 1889 and 1890 an epidemic
OF Influenza, starting somewhere in the
Orient, spread first to Russia and
thence over practically the entire civ.
ilized world. Three years. later there
was another fare-up OF the disease.
Both times the epidemic spread wide.
~ over the United States.
although the present epidemic is
called Spanish Influenza there is no
reason to believe that 1t originated in
Spain. Some writer's who have studied
the question believe that the epidemic
came from the Orient and they call at
tention to the fact that the Germans
mention the disease as occurring along
the eAstern front In the summer and
fall Of 1917"
How can Spanish Influenza" be rec.
ognized7
"There is as yet no certain way in
which a single case of Spanish influ-
enza' can be recognized. On the 9TH
er hand, recognition is easy where
there is a group Of cases. In contrast
to the outbreaks OF ordinary coughs
and colds, which usually occur in the
cold months, epidemics OF influenza
may occur at any season Of the year.
Thus the present epidemic ragged most
intensely in Europe in May, June and
July. Moreover, in the case of ordi.
nary colds, the general symptoms
Clever, pain, depression) are by no
means as severe or as sudden in their
onset as they are in Influenza. Final.
~, ordinary colds do not spread
through the community so rapidly OF
80 extensively as does influenza.
I'm most cases a person taken sick
with influenza feels sick rather sud-
denly. He feels weak, has pains in the
eyes, ears, head or back, and may be
sore all over. Many patients feel
dizzy, some yomit. Most of the pa
tients complain of feeling chilly, and
with this comes fever in which the
temperature rises to 100 to 1O4. In
most cases the pulse remains relative
ly slow.
I'm appearance one is struck by the
fact that the patient looks sick. His
eyes and the inner side of his eyelids
may be Slightly 'bloodshot,' or CON
gested, as the doctors say. There
may be running from the nose, or
there may be some cough. These signs
of cold may not be marked; never
theless the patient looks and feels very
sick.
I'm addition to the appearance and
the symptoms as already described,
examination of the patients blood may
aid the physician in recognizing Span
