Tom Robbins is attracted BY Lady

Lady Ann away from the tenderfoot.
Quarters are apportioned; the BOD,

"Gentleman Jim" has charge of the
gambling hall. In spite of their ef-

stage, because they do not shoot his
silk hat off his head. The Judge be-
gins to shoot things up and Rayner'

angry over the incident.
Some time later the Judge notices
the nugget chain around Lady AIMS

Regarding Spread of Infantile
Paralysis in Washington,
Oregon and Idaho.
CHILDREN OUTDOORS
Special Attention to Food,
Mouth, Throat, Teeth
and Tonsils.

During the months Of July and An
gust and thus far In September Of this
year infantile paralysis has been cpl
demic in the states Of Oregon and
Washington with numerous deaths re-
sulting therefrom and also in cases
that survive show paralysis Of some
muscles.
As Washington. Oregon and Idaho
are closely associated 1t Is only natural
that the disease should spread into
this state. This is borne out by the
| fact that numerous cases have been
reported, mostly in the northern part
Of the state, but some aaso in the CEN
tral and southern parts. For this fea-
son 1t Is well for the people to know
something about the disease, and es-
pecially the care Ct persons afflicted
with it.
At present very little Is known OF
the causative agent but 1t Is supposed
to be due to some cro-organism,
causing a general infection first, later
on localizing in the spinal cord. where
it attacks the nerve roots, causing par
alysis of the muscles supplied by these
nerves. It Ia q well known fact that
lit is transmitted from one person to
another, but the manner of transmits
sion is not known.
: The disease starts in the same man.
ner as any fever condition, may sim
ulate ordinary intestinal infection
, which lasts for a day or two or per-
haps only short very few hours, fol-
? lowed by paralysis or loss Of sensa-
tion in some part of the body. This
, may partly clear up and in some In
! stances it clears Up entirely. Other
a cases result tn paralysis of one or more
q groups Of muscles for life. II there is
paralysis Of the respiratory center
death results.
= The following precaution should b.
i. ipxen in rll cascs of children showi ii:s
g symptoms OF fever diseases:
r. First-The sick child should be put
II to bed In a quiet darkened room .and
d a physician called to diagnose tn.
,r case. In the meantime the bOwell
'e should be cleaned out with a mil,
le cathartie, the throat gargled with 1
N warm salt water solution Of one-hal
