Two Cases of Measles Developed in Rensselaer.

Eliner. Wilcox, assistant to Agent Beam at the/depot, is now laid up at his home with a case of measles. He had been feeling badly for two or three days and had taken some grip medicine. Yesterday he broke out while at -work and it is not improbable that some persons’ who came into contact with him at the depot will have the disease. Another case in town is that of Walter, the 8-year-old son of Jacob Gilmore, who has been sick for several days. Both patients are now under quarantine. Three cases were recently developed among the girls at the Monnett school and three of the,other girls of the school had the disease while at their homes during the holidays and have not yet returned. All the other girls had previously had the disease. Are you a small man? Then get Into one of those $5.00 bargain overcoats at Lee’s. Sizes 32 to 36.
