I believe that we are now on an even keel and that there is no reason to worry Parents schools would not be kept open if there were any danger from that source. “The city hospitals are crowded and there are only a few places for women patients, There is no room for men Tho police are doing good work ar- resting expectorators and keeping crowds moving. A woman expec- torator was arrested this morning and fined $2. No exceptions are made in carrying out the law. My informa- tion ts that many n from force of habit, are going their work in factories and shops and have to gather about them tn crowds, which ts wrong. My advice is that they shall not do this and that they go home as soon as they are through work. “For the rest of it let everybody keep his poise.

They say that the disease is spread by the breath and secretions of the body, especially of the nose and throat. Hands are constantly exposed and it is surpris- ing how often they are put up to the mouth and other parts of the face. For this reason:- Before you eat, After the day’s work, Whenever you come in from the street, Wash with Lifebuoy—the Health Soap When you wash with Lifebuoy Health Soap, its rich, creamy lather cleanses the skin thoroughly.
