If these suggestions are followed, they niay be of great relief to affected children: "The most Important thing that the public needs to know about the ter rible disease, poliomyelitis, oalled In fantile paralysis, is that it Is conta gious. The certain knowledge of this fact is very recent, and is, conse quently unknown not only to the general public but to the great ma jority of even good physicians. "Th disease has recently been shown to be caused by a living organ Ism bo small that it can pass through the finest bacterial filter. Experi ments on monkeys, in the Rockefel ler Institute, under the direction of Dr. Flexner, have succeeded in Isolat ing the germ, which Is so small that It is doubtful If by any device it has Von seen. That it Is a living organ ism Is shown, however, Dr. Flexner points out, by the fact that extremely minute uantitlos of the virus "suf fice to t arry Infection through an in definite series of animals. We have propagated the virus now through twenty-five generations, representing ' twenty-five separate series of mon keys, and as many removes from the original human material supplying It, and the activity of the virus for the monkeys hafl Increased rather than diminished In the course, and as the result of, the successive transplantations." "For all practical purpores, there fore, the germ, though unsoen, is dis covered. They can inoculate moir keys with the dlsenso and can pro duce In them Immunization, much In the snme way as the smallpox virus Is used on human beings. As yet, however, the discovery has not affect ed the direct treatment of tho ills ease, since tho preparation of i eerum antidote sufficiently strong to overcome the virus has not yet been made. What these experiments on monkeys have surely accomplished, however, Is to establish beyond doubt the infectious and contagious nature of the disease; and when this fact Is ufflolently realized by the public, the dtocase will bo greatly lessened in extent and possibly stamped out by quarantine and generally preventive measures. "A large percentage of the cripples one sees is the result of this disease You hear someone say that a certain child was dropped by Its nurse and so developed a "hump" back; that a certain man with a wasted and use less arm "caught cold" when a child , that some deformity was duo to the effect of malaria or some other dis ease. Such "accidents" and alleged effects from illness are now thought to be largely tho result of this germ disease. "It Is probable that a very largo jiereentage of the worst of these de formities may be averted by proper treatment. The disease ltself.cannot as yet be treated. For that we must wait for the preparation of an anti toxin and for more knowledge of the symptoms, so as to bo able to make a dlngnosls before the paralysis occurs and the damage Is dono. "All that can bo dono at present Is to treat the effects of the disease. The paralysis results from the de struction of nerve cells iu tho spinal cord. A function of these cells Is to supply nutrition to tho muscles. With tho destruction or disturbance of the cells, the nutrition of tho muscles Is cut off and they tend to wither and . die. "The essential treatment Is direct ed to keeping the affected muscles In as good a state of preservation as possible until the spontaneous im provenient In the nervous systeqi takes place and the cells resume their function of supplying nutrition. It Is essential that when- the nervous force returns It should find sound muscles to affect. Drugs are soniO' times given, but the essential treat mcnt consists of massage, electricity. and muscular exercises. Some physl clans place great reliance upon eloc trlclty, properly applied, but mas sage and exerclso are relied upon especially by the majority of prac titioners, as a means of keeping the muscles Intact until tho cord resumes its activity. It Is probable that all theso aro of use in some cases and at certain stages. The general care of tho child Is extremely Important should be kept as much as possible in tho open air and should have tho most nourishing food. "Tho theraputic valuo of hopeful ness is decided.

Belief that a limb may ultimately bo properly used tends to have a direct muscular result. The concentration of the child's mind, and Its cheerful concentration, on the exercises, Is helpful. "The fatalistic attitude toward paralysis, so long held, forms a bad moral atmosphere for the stricken child. He shouid believe that he will get entirely well, and should bei cheerful, Interested, happy, and free from all posslblo nervous Irritation." Tho Whole Truth. No business man In any town should allow any newspaper publish ed in his town to go out without hli namo and business being mentioned somewhere In Its columns. This applies to all kinds of busl ines general stores, dry goods, gro ceries, furniture dealers, lumber dealers, implement dealers, manufac turing establishments, automobile dealers, mechanics, professional men and In fact, all classes of business men. This does not mean that you should have a whole or a half page or even a quarter of a page ad in every issue of the paper, but your name and business should be men tioned In every Issue of your town newspaper, even If you do not use more than a two-lino space. A stranger picking up a newspaper should bo able to tell Just what busi ness Is represented In a town by looking at the business mentioned In the paper. It is tho best posslblo town advertising. Tho man who does not advertise his business does Injustice to himself and Injustice to his jlown. He Is the man who expects the nowspaper to do the most free boosting for the town. The man who Insists on sharing tho business which comes to a town but refuses to advertise his business Is not a valuablo addition to any town. The life of any town depends on the live, wide-awake, liberal, adver tising business men. Fill any town with selfish, penny-squeezing non-advertising business men and business stagnation, death and decay Is cer tain to be the fate of the town Marysvllle, Kansas, News.

The little fellow has lost his father and mother and does not like the re straint of strangers, and has been quite a care to his guardian, who threatened to resign the guardian ship of the three children, of which John Is one, If he were required to look after the custody of John. The boy has a bright mind, and no bad habits except the one of disobeying, and escaping from the custody of the person intrusted with his care. Judge Beeson made a trip to Omaha a few days ago and arranged with one of the private schools there to take John, and today the Judge goes to Omaha to deliver John Into the hands of those who make it a part of their life work to care for friendless chil dren.

Mr. Charleston came to Plattsmouth, and together w 1th Mr. Pollock went over the proposed route and noted where It crossed the Burlington's roadbed. It Is not at all likely that there will be any opposition on the part of the company, since the proposed route will cross the right-of-way, the pro moters of the wagon bridge did not want to proceed arbitrarily without consulting the Interested parties. Mr. Charleston will make his report to the company and the bridge company will then proceed with its plans. Meet With Mrs. Geo. Falter.

The Havelock fire department being unable to cope with tho fire demon, the Lincoln department was sent for. The building was new and Just completed this year, and only a short time ago dedicated with cere mony and speech making. The build ing cost the Burlington company a great deal of money, and will be a serious loss. The details of how the fire started were not known at the ! Havelock central office.
