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.

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. » .• .
