! MOW TO FIGHT
SPANISH INFLUENZA
Avoid crowds, coughs and
i towards, but fear neither
(Terms nor Cermana! Keep
the system in good order, take
: plenty or exercise in the fresh
fair and practice cleanliness.
:Remember, a clean mouth, a
.'clean skin, and clean bowels
iare a protecting armor
: against disease. To keep the
liver and bowels regular ann
to carry away the poisons
tvithin, it is best to. take a
.vegetable pill every other
: day, made up of Mayapple,
iloea, jalap, and sugar-coat-
ed, to be had at most drug
.'stores, known as Dr. Pierce's
iPellets. If there is a sudden
: onset of what appears like
ia hard cold, one should go
:to bed, wrap warm, take a
not mustard ioot-Datn ana
rlrinV r.oniouslv of hot lem-
nnarliv If rutin dpvelones in
:head or back, ask the drug-
tablets. These will flush the
bladder and kidneys and car
ry off poisonous matter. To
control the pains and aches
take one Anuric tablet every
two hours, with frequent
drinks of lemonade. The
pneumonia appears in a most
treacherous way, when the
influenza victim is appar
ently recovering and anxious
to leave his bed. In recover
ing from a bad attack of in
fluenza or pneumonia the sys
tem should be built up with a
herbal tonic, such as Dr.
Piece's Golden Medical Dis
covery, made without alcohol
from the roots and barks of
American forest trees, or his
"Irontic" (iron tonic) tablets,
which can be obtanied at most
any drug sfores, or send 10c
to Dr. Pierce's Invalids' Ho
tel, Buffalo, N. Y., for trial
package. "Irontic" is just as
good as Dr. Pierce's other
medicines.
WILL APPOINT WOMEN
FOR ARMY CAMPW0RK
WASHINGTON, Nov. 30. Re
cause of the lack of system In hiring
women workers for military camps
'and the, lack of uniformity In hous
ing and recreational facilities for
them, Raymond H. Kosdlck, chair
man of the war department commis
sion on training camp activities, hns
recommended to Secretary ltaker
the formation ..f an enlisted corpa
of women, aelf -administrative., but
responsible to the general staff of
the army, to handle women's work
In the camps. A report submitted
by him to the secretary of war sug
gests an organimtlon modeled on
the lines of the women's army auxil
iary corps of Great Hritiiln, the so
called "waaca" or "tommywaaca."
Whlla the end of the war pre
cludes the necessity for training
women for work overseas, there will
still be a great need for them at the
cantonments and military camps,
not only to release returning aoldlers
for industrial use but to perform
tasks for which they are better
fitted than men. The period of de
nioblllratlon, during which the
camps will be In full use, will cover
many months, so the proposed new
corps would have full opportunity
to justify its formation by service.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 30 Army
motor repair shops at llaltlmore,
Md.; Ban Antonio, Texas, and Atlan
ta, Ga., are to be retained as per
manent establishments when the
army nas been reduced to Its peace
time basis. The other repair places,
such as those at Kl Pso, Texas,
Rochester, N. Y., and other cities,
will be closed as soon as practicable.

Home: After a very pleasant trip I
.1111 at liutt in liundmi. I was verv
fortunate In the girls I have been

the "family" break up which has to
take place tomorrow. I leave fur a
point further ulotiK In Kngland (not

table. Knrh room ban n bath, what
Is a bath too! Then we have a lit
tle sitting room about L'.'ixl'S, beauti
fully furnished. Then our break-,
fa"t room is lovely, fire place, etc.
In the mornings a maid rutin's In
and opens the draperies, raises the
blinds and lowers the window, then
we hop into a few clothes and mir
kimonas and have a very nice break
fast. This has been most too nice
for us to have to beat it out and
rough It other places but it has
been a very 1 1 J . .i l 1 1- experience.
Yesterday tnoining I met a Lieu
tenant Wetzel from Oklahoma I'lly
and he knew a young man with the
American embamv who knows the
! hivisofia, Pan and has been at their
house He also knows (leralillne
Uraymer Wall, Spud and lots of
other Tulsa people. Ills name Is
Craig and he lives in Joplin.
We went to services In Westmin
ster Abbey yesterday afternoon and
It was JiiMt like a dream. To be in
plarSHj that you have read and M mi
le,! aJiout all your life Is thrilling to
nay the leas'. Then we went to Win
don bridge nl nil over the rltv and
ended up at the Cheshire Cheese and
had dinner nt the table where Sam
uel Johnson and Charles Pickens
wrote their works of torture for the
poor school kids The same old seat
and tables and the same kind of food.
Then after dinner wo went to a mu
sical program given nt the 1'alace

to bn as many Yanks there ss there

verv good, Y. M. C. A. numbers es
pecially so.
The boys are surely hungry to
hear someone talk "good old I'nlled
Ftates." Any number J.f them stopped
us Just to say "Hello America." It
is worth most any sacrifice Just to
see those kids, drink In every word
you say and hang on as long as pos
sible to the conversation.
I reported this morning and got
my assignment. The head of the
canteen In Kngland Is from Arizona
and was mighty glad to aee Okla

We talked to some wounded at
the Towers today ui"l they are sure

Pay Your Bills
AYyourbilI. Pay your bill.! PAY YOUR
BILLS!!!
If you are given to be slow in paying your bills, or
careless as to the amount you owe keep that
"PAY YOUR BILLS" phrase in your mind all the
time.
The way you pay your bills is a cure indication of
your character. x
Incur obligations forget obligations ignore
obligations and you immediately lose, your stand
ing for HONESTY and HONOR.
If you don't pay your bills you are DISHONEST.
If you don't pay your bills you are DISHONOR
ABLE. And lacking these two essentials YOU ARE
NOT WANTED IN THE COMMUNITY in which
you are at present residing.
You're a hindrance a drag a deadbeat and
a thief, and your community can grow faster with
out you.
If you haven't intellectuality enough to know that
you should pay your bills, you are of too low an
order to commune and live and exist with those who
do. YOU ARE NOT ON THEIR' PLANE and
it is better for them and will save you embarrass
ment if you have a conscience left to get out.
If it is just your intention to steal all the merchan
dise from trusting merchants that you can and then
seek refuge in the BANKRUPT COURT you're not
wanted here too many of your neighbors wear
watches and keep valuables in their homes to trust
you wandering about unguarded.
So vamoose.
Get Out!
TF you're in the hole 2nd rapidly sinking in the
mire of DEBT get out.
MAKE THE EFFORT and YOU CAN.
If you sink you're a weakling. You give up too
easily.
You got yourself in and YOU CAN get yourself
out.
Pull yourself together. Get your Head to work
ing and don't blame your conditions onto misfor
tune. BE A MAN if you can and face about. Put
your back to the wall and fight. Fight to regain
your honor and former respectable standing.
Only COWARDS DODGE conditions forced
upon them by their own volition and seek the easier
way through the BANKRUPT -COURT.
BE A MAN. Go see your creditors go to them, face to
face and eye to eye, and tell them that you are going to come
back. Tell them of your condition tell them what you can
do. They'll help you they'll lend a willing hand.
AND THEN YOU DO IT.
AND THEN YOU'RE BACK respected again by the com
munity, and more BY YOURSELF which, after all is the
greater, because you know so much more about yourself that you
dare not tell the other fellow.
