friends since she came here.
She Wasn't Taking Any Chances.

What do you want to know my
name for?" woman asked The Robe
sonian man one day recently when
she came into his Office and engaged
him in conversation about something
that disclosed the fact that she. lives
IN the county but did not lead to her
identity at all. "Why, l want to put
your name in the paper" was tie EN-
barrassed admission of the newspaper
man. "What for?" came the suspi-
cious question. "Wait minute" she
continued, "let me go ask Mr.
let me see what he says about it, and
if he says it is all right I'll come back
and tell you all about it." And she
did. She came back all smiles and
told all about herself and family, ano
she and the newspaper man were
both quite happy about it. But she
wasn't taking any chances; she made
sure that the newspaper man was moi
up to any devilment before she woult
T, vouchsafe any information at all.

This Man Wanted to Borrow Some
Money Right Now.

A day or SO after the papers an
nounced that Mr.. A. w. Mclean of
Lumberton was the Southern man ap-
pointed one of the four directors Of
the big United States War Finance
board, and that that board would lend
money to finance industries necessary
for the successful prosecution of the
war, Mr.. Mclean received a letter
from Georgia farmer who wanted
to borrow slice while the borrowing
was good. He said he was running
a big farm, that he was carrying on
business that is necessary for winning
the war, and that he wanted some
money. He had the right idea about
farming being one of the necessary
| things, but arrangements were made
long ago for men Of that kind to get
all the money they can legitimately
handle.

HORSES HAVE
FLU" NOW
Equine .Ailment Resembles
Human Affection

Although the serious epidemic
Of influenza now affecting the
human family has no relation to
the disease of the same name
which affects horses, specialists of
the United States Department of
Agriculture point out a reSeInh-
lance of symptoms and course OF
the disease in each instance.
According 10 the department, in
fiuenza among horses at the pre-
sent u;me is under better control
in all sections Of tire couatry than
ever before This results almost
entirely from the work Of the Fed
eral authorities in combating the
pest
Equine influenza is q common
disease in the large cities Of the
country, affecting horses which
pass through infected stables Of
dealers, Only. however, under
certain influences not understood
and when large numbers Of horses
IN commercial channels are expos
ed 10 conta gion. does It assume an
eazootic or ep;zootjc form, Unlike
certain other INFECTIOUS diseases,
one attack Of inipenza docs NOT
grant = lasting immunity. How
ever. previous attack or attacks or
other S5rna,ole reasons ap-
pa7enty make old horses less sus-
ceptilole than Young ones.
Symptoms Of the Malady
The symptoms are those of fever
in some cases, preceded by q chill.
There is great proStrataon and de-
preston OF muscular force; the
visible mucous membranes, es-
pecial,y those Of the eye, become a
deep Saffon, ocher or violet red
ccIor, from which the term pink
eve" has been given 70 the disease,
There is a great loss Of appetite
and q rapid loss Of flesh.
Treatment
Horses upon showing evidences
of influenza Slaould be relieved I'M
r71sslfauely from work Most care
fun nursing is also essential for
horses affected with influenza and,
likewise, skilled medical treat
rnear, which can be best assured
by placing affected animals under
the care of s qualified veterinar-
ian. The spread Of the infection
scnonld be prevented by seg-egaf-
ing tine diseased animals and
asx~s.lyNsnity cleaning and dlsanfec5-
inS sna contaminated premises.
Plenty OF sunlHght and good ve17tl-
lstion are also highly desirable.
