In view OF the present discussion

the malady are. Surgeon General
Blue. OF the United States public
health service, gives them In the fol-

"There is as yet no certain way
In which a single case OF influenza
can be recognized; on the other hand,
recognition is easy where there Is n
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 recent epidemic ragged most in
tensely in Europe in May, June and
July of 1918. Moreover, in the case
OF ordinary colds, the general symp-
toms (feyer, pain, depression) are by
no means 0s severe or as sudden in
their onset as they are in influenza.
Finally, ordinary colds do not spread

with influenza feels sick rather sud-

the eyes, ears, head or back, abdo-

Many patients feel dizzy, some vomit.
Most OF rhe patients complain OF

'congcsted as the doctors say. There
may be running from the nose, or
there may be some cough. These
signs of n cold may not be marked;
nevertheless tn patient looks and
feels very sick. In a number of in
stances during the recent epidemic
large proportion of the cases OF
influenza showed an intestinal (diarr-

OPENS AUTO ACCESSORY STORE

The Motor Tire Service Company OF
Worcester and Fitchburg, Mass, Is
the latest concern to invade Putnam
and bid for the tire and automobile
accessory trade of this section.
The concern has fine, light store
on South Main street, formerly occu-
pied by Smiths cafe, and carries a
very large stock and will do both a
wholesale and retail business.
While the store is new, the concern
is well known here, and II. B. Kalag-
her. who is manager of the Putnam
branch. has covered this territory for
some years. While he comes here as
resident manager he will devote few
DAYS a week calling on the trade in
this section.
Wallace Jones, who has beeh in the
business since it was first started in
Putnam three or more vars ago, Will
have charge of the vulcanizing and
battery department. His work is well
known to auto owners of this section.
The company features Miller tires and

totally blind in the injured eye.
The state police were called upon
for an investigation. Sergeant Rob

vicinity and has interviewed every
person for miles around. Mr. browns
does not know that he has an enemy
that would wish to injure him by IN

The state police are inclined TO the
belief that some person, who must be
a degenerate of some sort, may be re-
sponsible for the wounds inflicted.
The investigation is being continued
and it is said that suspicion points In
a certain direction. The officers do
not believe that if their theory proves
true that any boy will be found to be
responsible. The shot holes are all IN

holds the air rifle, the police believe,
