But the customer w mt come back to buy again unless he is satisfied the first time.

These figures will cause many peo ple to take an entirely new viow of this highly epidemic disease with which practically all communities at one time or another have had experience. Few mothers realize that for chil dren under five years of age the percentage of deaths from measles is sometimes nearly ten out of every hundred. The disease, however, is one which powerfully illustrates the truth of the old proverb that “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure,’’ for if the child cs- • apes measles until after it is five years of age, th© changes of death ire rapidly decreased, so that among children from five to ten years of age, the death rate Is only one out of every hundred, and from ten veare on up is even less than one per cent. Measles commonly occurs In epi demics, attacking children for the mdst part, and its prevalence at one time or another in every sec tion of the country, nas led the public to think of it as a trivial and slight disorder, which must occur one© In a life time, and that the sooner a child has it and gets over it, the better it is for the child. But persons who take this vie* forget not only the danger of death among younger children, but the fact that measles often leaves the patient with some serious and per manent troubles of the eyes, ears, heart or kidneys. Highly Contagious. Measles is a highly contagious disease, accompanied by inflamma tion of the air passages, and a pe culiar, mottled, dusky-red erupt toil of the skin. One attack usually pro^ fcects a person against the disease for the remainder of life. Measles is an exceedingly old disease, and has been afflicting mankind for hundreds of years. Careful studies have sbowm that measles, like whooping cough, is spread directly from ease to case, and is rarely if »ver conveyed Indirectly by infected objects or by a third person. But t can he acquired by a very slight exposure or contact with one who ilrrady has it. Practically every body is susceptible to It, and It spreads rapidly wherever It appears ’n localities containing those who have not previously had It. One of the things that makeB upeslcs most difficult to control. Is he fact that a patient with measles may convey it to others very early *n the course of the disease, before ‘he ©ruction appears at all, and be fore a diagnosis can be properly made. The patient is highly Infec- 1 ious for three or four days before the rash has appeared. When a child is exposed to meas- sles, from ten to fourteen days elapse before any symptoms of the disease appear. Usually at the end of about ten days the patient be gins to manifest symptoms of 111- The development of the ease is usually gradual and Insid ious, though more rarely it will come on suddenly with vomiting and high fever. Normally the first symptoms are those of an ordinary cold, the eyes are reddened and wattery, the nose runs freely, and there is a dry, high-pitched cough. The throat may he sore, the tonsil.- swollen; headache, fever and loss of appetite follow. The disease is ac companied by fever, which disap pears at certain stages and then ro- cveurs. The eruptions show first on the lining of the mouth. Then domes the eruption of the skin, be ginning usually around the face fund nook, composed of small, slight ly elevated spots, of a dusky red color. Thp eruption lasts usually four or five days and disappear as the other symptoms improve. Get a Physician. Every case of measles should be attended by a competent physician. Neglect of an apparently triflin'* case may mean life-long Injury t< the eyes, ears, heart and other or gans. Th# contagious of measles is hard control, but with the active co operation of mothers and fathers its spread can always be checked. This cannot be done by any public officials or any health department alone. If parents will use their ef forts to prevent well children from becoming infected by keeping them away from children who have cently had the measles or who have been exposed to It, and if parents wfill promtly isolate any older children who may contract it, the dangers of spreading the disease will be materiallv lessened. Health authorities should notify the public of the existence of mea- i ? ea in a house by placing a carl n & door, and children from houses infected with moaslee should be ex- 1 ded f-om school -while there is any danger of their being Infected. During the prevalence of the dis cos© In a community, ©very school ohild should be examined for early symptoms. Scientists and physi cians still have a great deal to learn bout measles, both as to Its cause and the manner of spreadiln?; but while th© measures already devised ore far from perfect, they will ac- omplfsh much.

NEGROES FIERI FLETGHERVILLE There was some strap in Fletch- ervllle Saturday evening about ten thirty o’clock. The fight was evi dently between three negroes and one of them was left on the field of battle very much disfigured and in a white lady’s yard. He had dently been worked on about cranium with a stout fence palin, and the fact that he was no paper skull probably saved his life.
