Des ,Moines.- Sept. 1O.-That intiuen-
"a in a mild form has appeared in
parts af Illinois is the report received
here by DIR. G. II. Sumner, secretary OF
the state board OF health, in a com
munication from Surgeon General Ru-
pert Blue of the United States pubic
health service.
with reference to the important
question of the probability that this
year may witness a recurrence of cpl
by the Illinois state department OF
health Of a recent increase, tho hard =
ly epidemic. of what is believed to
haye been mild form of influenza
in certain localities in the state" de-
clares the report.
Having been diagnosed for the most
part as summer cold the disease was
not promptly reported and came to the
attention of the state authorities only
after some weeks. But field investi-
cations condcted promptly upon the
receipt Of information justify the con-
clusion that the disease was influenza
of a mild type without severe compli-
cations and with no fatalities so far as
known. 1t seems to have prevailed
chiefly in the central part of the state
during the last week of June and the
first half of July and to be less preva-
lent at this time.
Not Necessarily Alarming.
This occurrence need not necessarily
be considered as alarming, since it was
to be expected that at the very least
mild local outbreaks would follow the
recent epidemic of influenza. 1t is
however, to consider the possibility
that this may be the forerunner Of d
for which reason it seems requisite tc
advise all state health authorities OF
the facts, to suggest to them the i'm
portance of special vigilance at this
time, and to request that they forward
to the public health service immediate
telegraphic reports of any increased
prevalence of.infiuenza or suspected
influenza which may come to theil
knowledge" X .. ~.
However. the surgeon general de.
clares that it is impossible at this time
| to make any, reliable estimate of the
probability of a serious recurrence OF
| epidemic influenza. He does believe i
is necessary to take precautions tc
prevent the trouble if possible.

Waist of Tailored Type

Now because there Is much talk OF
these newer models we must not for
moment think that the regulation
blouse or shirtwaist Is out of favor.
Indeed. It Is not. and it Is repeated In
Just as many materials as there are
factories to make them. The kimono
type with its slip-On ease Is still much
favored for the dressier blouses of
georgette or chiffon. Many have a
rather tight foundation over which is
hung a panel Of contrasting color back
and front. This panel. while short.
is left to hang free over the skirt and
Is smart in appearance. The sleeves
of this blouse are of the same color
and material as the body. One often
finds this type of waist enveloped In
Il combination Of organdie and linen
or pique or heavy lawn. The effect Is
pleasing and unusual, too.
As to the more tailored type of waist
for travelling or business there are
several models which bid for favor.
One of these Is the strictly tailored
design following the exact lines Of q
mans shirt and Is much affected for
sport wear. A long, time ago shirts OF
this sort were made Of brilliant

striped percale and these are again In
favor-bright red and white stripes
vying with those of the most vivid
blue or green or yellow or black for
first place.
These, of course, are strictly tailored
and have the appearance Of belonging
to ones brother, as they demand the
same ties and link cuff buttons.
Another tailored model is less Sc
we're than these, as 1t has a turned
down collar usually added of some
heavier material than the sheer lawn
or dimity or linen of which the blouse
Is made. In one model the collar Of
linen crash becomes a pointed revers
extending the entire front and fasten-
ing just below the yoke with one large
pearl button. Fine lawn Is used for
the body of the blouse. The cuffs
which finish the long, tight sleeves,
are folded back to fasten with buttons
or narrow bows of black and white
ribbon.

WHY SADNESS IN OLD ACCT
Too True That the Two Things Are
Frequently Associated, but
Should Not Be.

IL Is a common belief that as a per
son advances In years he becomes not
only wiser but q sadder man. That
one should gain knowledge az he grows
older Is thoroughly In order. but that
ne should become increasingly bur
dened with the cares of life and sad
dened because of hopes that have not
been fulfilled is not a necessary condi-
ton.
1t Is true that the clouds that gather
about the setting sun do take sober
coloring from an eye that has kept
watch in mans mortality, to para
phrase Wordsworth bit, and that the
thought of constantly lessening activi-
ty and prospects which age entails is
enough to make one pause and consld-
er. But consideration that goes far
enough will reveal that all time. wheth-
er of this world or another. is an un-
ending opportunity for progression.
After all, the whole matter Of age Is
something that has to do with the mind
rather than the body. And when the
body begins to fail, when gray hairs
appear, the step becomes less springy,
sleep more difficult and JOY in things
that used to please an impossibility.
sadness should not be the result.
The mind is a great crucible which
receives and transfuses in some fash
ion impressions from all the objects
and facts of life. The will Is the mas
ter which determines what the trans
fusion shall be. A man can let his will
relax or he can keep 1t active, regard.
less of age. He can make Of his ex.
lstence heaven or a hell, whether he
be old or young, rich or poor, In a
favored spot of the earth, on desert
soil or fallen on evil days.
Exercise of the win cannot at last
stave off death, and 1t may not induce
prolonged health or material welfare.
But 1t can aid in all these things, and
entirely regardless of It's material ac-
cOmplishments, the will that Is kept
properly on the alert can lead him In
hope.
"Oh, well for him whose will is
strong"
For him whose will is weak, or rath-
er allowed to become weak, there Is
Joy neither in a sunset nor sunrise.
And even the bright light of monday
will only dazzle and bewilder, rather
than encourage and inspire.
The strong will sees endleSsly, "be-
yond the sunset and the paths Of all
