Candidates Take Notice.
Mrs. Katherine Schulkin, head
nurse of the Associated Charities
in Memphis, and President of the
Tennessee Nurses’ Association,
has given out the following state-,
merit:
"Instead of feeling compliment
i ed when someone kisses her baby,
| a mother should feel positively in
i suited. Kissing is one of the
I surest ways of transmitting dread
grip ghrras, to which buby is very
i susceptible.
Many mothers know that they
| are running risks when they allow
'persons to kiss their children and
I yet are restrained from preventing
,it by some fear of hurting some
one’s feelings. That isquite silly,
The health of the child is of far
more importance, ” she declared.”
Money to Loan.
A limited amount of money to
loan, on improved farm lands at
7 per cent, interest, easy terms,
it will be necessary to make ap
plication at once, as this fund will
not last over 60 days, we think.
