DOCTORS PREPARE
TO FIGHTGRIP
Expect Renewed Out
break of Epidemic
This Fall.

Medical authorities agree that
there is great likelihood Of another
grip epidemic during the next few
months. They say that in the past,
serious epidemics Of grip have usu-
ally repeated themselves for three
and sometimes four years and they
fully expect that last years scourge
will again make itself felt in all Sec
tons Of the country. Every effort is
being made by health authorities to
combat the danger.
It is a public duty to see that
every member Of the family is put
into the best possible physical condi-
ton to fight off an attack Of grip.
For this purpose no better tonic
food can be used than Father Johns
Medicine, which is all pure and
wholesome nourishment and which
builds up new, resisting power.
However slight cold may appear
when it first develops, it should not
be neglected. II is important to re-
member that Father Johns Medicine
has been in use for more than sixty
years in homes and hospitals
throughout the country for colds and
as q tonic body-builder. By soothing
and healing the mucous lining Of the
breathing passages gives relief from
irritating coughs. It's pure food ele-
ments make new flesh and strength.
Remember, Father Johns Medicine
is guaranteed free from alcohol or
dangerous drugs.

ALL SYNACoCUES
TO OBSERVE DAY
OF ATOM ( MENT
Yom Kippur Has Added Sig
nificance This Year to
Jews Throughout the
World.

Today 10 Yom Kippur, the great
Jewish Day Of Atonement. It will
bs faithfully celebrated in all the
Jewish synagogues, institutions and
homes in America.
To its sanctity as the most impor-
tant of the fast days, there is add
ed > double significance. for the cal
endar has brought Yom Kippur on
the Jewish Sabbath, making it
doubly sacred day, and it is perhaps
the most tragic Day of Atonement
in the history Of ancient Jewry.
From their homes in Palestine, from
the shores of the Baltic and the
Black Seas, from Poland and~t the
frozen wastes of Siberia-from
every foreign land INTO which Jew
ish relief workers have penetrated,
the sad New Year message that
comes to this country is ever the
same-"Eurcpean Jewry is perish
ing"
Joy in U. S. Only.
America is the only land in which
the new month of Tishri, the He
braic January, brings any JOY to the
Jewish population. The year
$3.50, reckoning from the day
of Abraham on the Jewish
calendar, dawned on Septem-
Der IS. the feast day of]Rosh Has
honah. 1t was not a feast day for
some 100000 starving Jews in Eu-
rope, because every day for the past
four years has been a fast day for
most of them. So today's Yom
Kippur fast will be all too easy for
these millions to observe.
The Jews in the war-racked coun-
tries abroad have suffered more than
any other people, and they are dying
by thousands of starvation and dis
ease. The Yom Kippur fast. during
the "a hours when no good Jew will
allow food to pass his lips, will be
little more than a continuation of
the fve-year fast that has been the
lot of the 100000 Jews in Europe.
Orphaned children and widows are
continually being turned away from
the overcrowded charitable institu-
tons and food stations to die in the
streets of Poland and nearby ocun-
tries. The only hope that the great
mass of Jewry will survive the COM
ing winter depends upon America.
Period of Repentance.
The fortnight between Rosh
Hashonah and Yom Kippur is OBJ
served as a period of repentance,
during which the Divine Judge
weighs the earthly deeds against
each Individual before entering his
final fate in the Book of Judgment.
This year it is a period of deep sor-
row as we'll for many American
Jews. The records of Jewish relief
agencies in New York show that
several hundred thousands have tried
without avail to trace their dear
ones abroad who have been swal-
lowed up in the chaos of war when
communications were broken. These
people are at loss whether to hope
that their loved ones are dead or
that it is their fate to face new
year of terrible suffering and sorrow.
Another sad phase of this years
Yom Kippur will be the memorial
service for the dead, when almost
every Jewish family in the stricken
countries, together with many III
America, will mourn tie loss of one
or more OF their members.

Clay had saved nothing against the
rainy season. He had found his salary
too small for his courtship requisites
now that his salary was halved his
courtship had to be reduced to the
minimum of expense.
Bayard and Leila had more money
to spend, and they made ambitious
voyages. But Daphne and Clay must
swelter with the other stay-at-home
millions. Clay denied himself even the
two weeks vacation allotted to him

Mrs. Chivvis was touched. "You
poor child! 1t really is-just too bad ~
She pondered, then she frightened
I'm sorry you're disappointed, but I'm
glad you're not to be in the theater
1t must be very wicked"
TITS mighty difficult" said Daphne.
Mrs. Chivvis thought a moment
more, then she said:
"Did I tell your No, I don't be.
lieve I did-you were away-but Mr..
Chivvis gets his vacation next week.
He's got to take it when his turn
comes. The man who was going now
couldn't be spared, so we have to leave
Tuesday. I'm going, of course, so
can't give you your meals. You can

son." Daphne said. "In be all right
l guess"
Daphne had not realized how much
she depended on Mrs. Chivvis till now
She was to be left alone at the very
time when she was most In need OF
society. The whole world was forsak
ing her.
Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1919-07-30
CHAPTER XIV.

Then the Chivvises came back from
their vacation unexpectedly early. They
had found the hotels expensive and
Mr.. Chivvis was afraid that his job
would be snatched from him if he
were not there to hold it down.
Clay called on Daphne that evening
and the Chivvises retreated to their
own room. But as they could be over
heard it was evident that they could
overhear, and the lovers found no
chance to say any Of the things that
frightened their souls.
One evening Daphne said to Clay in
as low voice as he could hear: Mrs.
Chivvis is growing uneasy, honey,
about our being together every eve
ming. I told her we were engaged, but
she didn't seem convinced. Perhaps
you would let me wear that beautiful
engagement ring again. I was a fool
to give it back to you. May have it
Or"
Clay blenched in misery. "I-rm
afraid L You see, I hadn't paid
much on it; and last week had an In
sulting letter from the jeweler. He
threatened to sue me and notify my
firm, and well, had to send it
back"
He was so downcast that she an
swered with mock cheer: "Oh, that's
all right, honey; it doesn't matter.
After all, it's only a ring. And we
have each other"
"But we haven't each other This
way of living is driving me crazy. I'll
be all right as soon as these hard
times are over and I can make some
commissions. But it's so dismal to
wait. Couldn't we get married and
live on my salary?"
81 could If you could"
He caught her in his arms so vio-
lently that she squealed.
The next day Clay telephoned to her
his firm had just offered him the
choice of accepting half his salary or
turning in his resignation. 1t was
really impossible for two to live on
half of what was hardly enough for
one.
Daphne cried a long while in her
room. She got out her list of ways to
earn fifty thousand dollars again and
cried over that.
There is much foolish and futile pro-
test against the nowadays woman who
goes into business outside her home.
But the fact is that it is her business
that began it. Her business left the
home first and she is merely following
it to the places where new conditions
and inventions have centralized and
mechanical it.
New conditions have taken her
distaff and her washtub and her cook
cry and gossip into the wooden mills
and steam laundries and restaurants
and telephone exchanges. She has had
to go thither to do her necessary work.
Even the entertainers, the singers,
dancers, tellers of stories, who used
to stir the seraglios and the castle
halls have been gathered into opera
houses and theaters and into vaude-
vile and moving picture palaces.
Daphne, having no gifts for spin
ming, cooking, or laundry, tried the
theater. Her old-fashioned lover pro-

have been polite to treat him with alb
solute Indifference. Duane got down
and helped her out and took her to
the door, which was iucKed at this late
hour. While they waited for the door
man to answer the bell she was pay
ing him his wages:
"YOu are wonderfully kind. I had a
gorgeous evening. You saved my life"
She had said more than she intend
edit not more than he had earned.
"Then may call soon"
"Of course"
Tomorrow"
"I-well, I'll let you know"
"Fine! Telephone me at TIL
write it out for you. I'm not often at
the club where you found me, and my
number isn't in the book" He wrote
on his card his telephone address and
gave it to her as the doorman ap-
peared.
He murmured, "Don't forget" She
murmured, II won't" Both said
Good night" Then the doorman gath
cred her in and hoisted her to her
lowly eyrie. 1t was very different
from where she would have gone as
Mrs. Duane.
But when she was in her room she
tore his card to pieces-after she had
looked at it. She stared at her image
in the mirror. She hated what she saw
there.
She vowed to break her promise to
Tom Duane. She vowed to forget his
telephone number. But 1t danced
about in the dark long after she had
closed her eyes.
The next morning she oversight even
beyond the extra hour the Chivvises
permitted themselves and the stranger
within their gates on Sundays.
When Daphne appeared at break
fast, trying not to yawn, Mrs. Chiv-
Wis greeted her with q voice as cold
and dry as the toast, and as brittle:
"You were rather late getting in
last night-or this morning, rather"
Daphne's answer was not an expla.
nation, but it was better:
"Oh, know It, Mrs. Chivvis, but
lost my position last night. Yesl ]
played the principal part and killed it
and now I'm not going on the stage any

Leila Had Decided That 1t Was Better
for Her Health to Stay at Newport
Till the Cooler Weather Game and
Her Summer Wardrobe Had Been
Worn Out.
Leila off to Newport, where they
boarded humbly, if extensively.
While they were gone, at their sug-
gestion, Daphne moved down into
their apartment. 1t was large and
beautiful, and as Clay said, it was
mot infested with Chivvises."
Now and then Clay quarreled with
Daphne because of her obstinate de-
termination to have trade Of her
own. Then they made up. And quar-
relied anew-lovers' quarrels, summer
storms that break the sultry tension
Of the air and make peace endurable.
Bayard came back alone. Leila
had decided that it was better for
her health to stay at Newport till
the cooler weather came and her
summer wardrobe had been worn out.
So Bayard joined the army of
town-tied husbands, the summer wild
overs. He went back once a week
on furlough to spend Newport Sab
bath with his wife. He became one
of the Friday-night-to-M onday-morn-
ing excursionists. There was leisure
enough in his Office.
He insisted on Daphne's keeping
her room in his apartment, and of
evenings he affixed himself to her
and Clay and made their company a
crowd. But they welcomed him as a
chaperon of q sort. Also, he paid his
way with liberality, except for occa-
sional spasms of retrenchment, when
he economical atrociously. He pre-
dicted that good times would never
come again. The whole world had
gone to pot and would never come
out.
Suddenly he changed his tune; sud-
denly the whisper went about that
hard times were ending.
In his bachelor days, when Bayard
was growing in commercial stature
like q young giant, he had regarded
his business with all the warmth of
a poet. His Office building was his
Acropolls and his Office the peculiar
temple of his muse; and her name
was Profit. He thrilled like q poet
to the epic inspiration Of big sale,
and he knew joy akin to the poets
revision of his scansion if he devised
a scheme for reducing overhead
charge or wastage.
