AVOIDING INFLUENZA

According to latest reports no epi- demic Of influenza is so far scheduled for appearance this winter. This acute infectious disease in practically all cases involves the res- piratory tract, gastro- o-intestinsi canal and in many persons the nervous sys- tenn, together with weakened heart and reduced circulation. It is aiso met with endemically dn certain lo- cslties or peculiar 10 some classes of people. One must constantly be on guard to stall of influenza during the germ season twinter and early sprirg.)
 To escape it's dsvitalizing attack one should always avoid getting . chill, especially If one is not robust with strong powers of endurance. Any undue exposure during severe weather, or going for hours with wet feet, should be avoided.
 The sastro-intestinal tract must be carefully attended to to avoid any chance of intestinal poisoning. If the digestive tract is kept in a hesithy condition by sensible diet and plenty Of good drinking water, thus avoiding attacks Of constipation, one may be fairly immune. Swollen and inflsn1s.d tonsils and sdenoid tissue. or polsons from pus infection at the roots of teeth. may also weaken the system by poisoning the life stream.
 Your condition of resistance should be constantly kept in mind to avoid influenza. Worry and nervous trou- bles lower your vital powers and weaken the endocrine system.
 Beware of the least appesrance of sore throat or a beginning dun head ache. Don't let any such condition so for even sn hour if you can possibly prevent it.
 Re sure you get the fun required time of sleep. Don't oyerwork your heart.
 The weakened heart spells nervous ailments. These may seriously affect the kidneys and esuse repression Of the gianduisr system.

The Reception Accorded the Children
Oh AIlntie Ma ige z


 "oh Auntie Maage !'
 Mary Harrison's somber little fact
 lighted at the sight of me, and theI her face clouded with instinctive ap' prehension.
 "Or must 1 say Aunt Margaret? ?' she faltered. and for the second time I felt my throat tighten with pity I remembered only too well the old command enforced by the child's dead mother, that ''Auntie Madge' was a name tabooed, and that the more formal appellation must al ways be given me. The chilling shadow of the mothers sterness was even yet upon the sensitive child. and I looked furtively at Har- riet Braithwaite, to whom the little girls question had been addressed, wondering if she meant to .arry out her sisters code. By something indefinably tense in Lillianse atti- tude, although to all outward ap- pearances she wss engaged in help ing the boys with the removal of their wraps. knew that she too was listening and watching for this first indication oi what Harriet Braithwaite's scheme of discipline would be.
 Not unless you choose, dear, Mrs. Braithwaite said, and there was . tender, mothering note in her rich voice which never had heard in my stately sister-in-lsw's speech before. Marion calls ner Auntie Msdge, and I suppose you would like to do the same thing, is that it?"
 Harriet Realizes the Truth
 "No-oo," Mary said honestly, T eusss it's because Margaret seems 90 old and sober for her. Auntie Msdge sounds young and gay and laughing. It's like q nice song."
 I caught the swift pain that flashed into Harriet Brsithwaite' s eyes, and keenly regretted the child's innocent but unlucky speech. For knew that she had touch a sore spot in her aunt's heart For never. no matter how hard she tried, would Harriet Braithwaite bs able to be a young. comradely mother to these children whom I could see she already had mentally. adopted Her age. her temperament. her rigid relf-training of years all prohibited that. Tender, loving, wfse---a rock in any kind of trouble--all these she would be. but the laughter and romping, go dear to childish hearts, would never be shared by her.
 I followed Lillian's glance to the tall figure of my brother-in- law, and realized, as I think did Harriet also, that the children would never want for plsyfellow ms long as the big surgeon had strength enough to lift his hand or his head in game. He already had swung lftue Rod erick to his shoulder. where the child sat in such perfect content that only my common sense kept me from maudlin horror that his dead parents shon.d be forgotten so soon. But 1ad Co remind myself sharply, that William Harrison, though he had loved his children and had done khe best he could for them. rarely sae them in his travel ing business fife and that his going was, therefore. little more to them than the death of any other acqmin- tsnce
