If Sick—Stay at Home
During the time of this Spanish
influenza epidemic, everyone who feels
sick is asked to remain at home until
they get entirely well. It may be that
you have not got the influenza—but
on the other hand it may be that you
have got it, or are taking it and you
certainly ought to have enough sense
to keep your disease and not be no
particular about giving it to others
Some people are of such a disposition
that if they have a contagious disease
they simply DO NOT CARE how
many people they give this disease
to and they leave cheir home before
all danger is past and go where they
please, consequently through their
going they give several this disease
and it is passed on down the line.
Some, who are taking the influenza
There is another side to this story,
come to town ignorant of what they
have but when they learn that they
have said disease they go home and
go to bed. Others are so contrary
and don’t care. They come to town,
go into a crowded store where doz
ens of people are standing there and
just through their carelessness prob
ably everyone will take the thing from
that one person. Some have been in
the Bainbridge stores with a high
fever on them and did not seem to
care for themselves—or others. But
the OTHERS care and for the sake
of humanity if you have fever and all
feeling badly, for the sake of HU
MANITY, do STAY AT HOME, send
for a doctor and see what is the mat
ter with you. If you don’t care about
dying and don’t want a doctor—very
well, but there are people down town,
want any sicklings hanging around
who HAVE TO WORK and they don’t
them for they are afraid of catching
the “Flu.” There are more people
in the world besides you—so think of
them before you give them the “Flu.”
In this establishment the public finds
the maximum of capability. We treat
our clientele fairly and have thus won
an enviable reputation in the com
munity.

Insure Your Business
Against PRUSSIAN Piracy
Buy a “Liberty” Policy
,You have fire insurance—life and accident insur
ance—indemnity insurance—to safeguard your busi
ness.
But there are other policies you must have for your
own protection—policies of insurance against the Kais
er, whose power is the greatest peril and the greatest
force of destruction in the world today.
Liberty Bonds are the Best Policy
Every Liberty Bond you buy is a policy of insurance
against the destruction of your freedom, your happiness,
your home, and your livelihood. You cannot have too
much of that kind of insurance. France and Belgium
and Serbia and Poland show what Prussian militarism
would do to the United States if we should fail to crush
it. » .• .
Lend to Your Utmost for Victory
Money is the vital factor in the winning of this war.
You must lend more than before. The fourth Loan is
larger; the obligation on each of us is greater.
