What TO Do.
In his statement to the public Sur
geon General Blue points out how
those who have had influenza should
protect themselves against tuberculo-
sis. "All who have recovered from in
tluenza,' says the Surgeon General,
"should have their lungs carefully ex-
amlned by a competent physician. In
fact, 1t Is desirable TO have several ex-
amiuations made a month apart. Such
examinations cannot lie made through
the clothing nor can they be carried
out IN two or three minutes. II the

DANCE Signs.
The Surgeon General warned espe-
clally against certain danger signs
such as decline nud colds which
hang on"
These he explained, were often the
beginning Of tuberculosis. 'If you do
not get well promptly If your cold

are often the early signs " tuberculo-

Of Great Britain, which has been con
trolled BY tho government since the
middle Of 1915, is gradually being
freed from restrictions and soon will
be practically on a per-war basis. The
only remaining restriction will s. be

this on the market at auctions at
fixed minimum prices, which, how

The first auctions will be held in
the first week of April and about co.
coo bales are expected to be catalog-
ed during that month. Belgian,
French and Italian buyers will be al
lowed to compete with the British
trade for supplies but there will be no
American competition.
