Danger in Measles Measles are dangerous and preventable. There

are thousands of Indiana children who will carry

the impairments left by measles with them to the grave. The Indiana State Board of Health is

asking the state to wake up to the. danger lurking

in this malady. Parents, read the warning

which the health authorities have issued. "More than 4000 cases of measles were re

ported to the Indiana State Board of Health during the month of January with 32 deaths and

in February more than 5,000 case3 with 10 coun

ties not reporting. It can safely be said that there were thousands of cases not reported in either month. Many parents consider measles so trivial that they do not call a doctor nor report the case as the law and 4he Golden Rule direct

shall be done. .

"The usual idea or measles is that it is a harmless affection which every child must have, like teething, stubbed toes, and a dirty face, and , the sooner it is over with, the better. It was not j a great while ago that one frequently heard the I expression, 'Well, I suppose we might just as well let Willie and May go over to Jones's and catch i the measles and be done with it. It seems to be

real mild sort that the Jones's children -have

'Measles parties' were not an uncommon thing in Indiana when we were children. "Although no one actually tries to get measles

these days this relic of barbaric belief still persists as one of the most serious and .vital obstacles in the way of health officers when they endeavor to attack and break ud an epidemic of

measles, whooping cough or chickenpox. . "Measles and whooping cough are no more necessary to the growth of a child than a snake bite. If you can postpone measles until you are grown, your chances of altogether escaping the disease will compare favorably with your chances aga'.nst the other contagious diseases that are not considered children's diseases. "Measles and whooping cough are much less dangerous to an adult than they are to a child. The child is peculiarly susceptible to the complications of so-called children's diseases. These little diseases are capable of inflicting serious and permanent damage upon the great vital organs, the heart, the lungs, the kidneys, and the brain. 'They are the very jackals of diseases, tracing down and pointing out the prey to the lions that work in partnership with them,' as Dr. Woods Hutchinson so aptly puts it 'It is following measles or whooping cough when the irritated and weakened membranes are sick from these 'harmless children's ills' that the horrible germs

of tuberculosis (consumption) or pneumonia, or

rheumatism get their hold. "Of course children will frequently have these little diseases1 and escape death, but many will bear scars which they will carry to their graves. On the average about 260 children die from measles alone in Indiana every year, to say nothing of the cases . of bronchitis, pneumonia, chronic throat troubles, nasal catarrh, chronic eye trou

bles, particularly of the lids and conjunctiva (pink eye), styes, ulcers of the cornea, chronic discharges from the ear, perforations of the ear drum and deafness, that result directly from a simple case of harmless, snuff ly, "measly" little measles. Why should we let children run such chances ? If they are lucky enough to escape the more evident results, they practically always get

behind in school, are pale and weak after the attack, lose their appetite, and have various forms of indigestion (stomach : trouble) arid bowel trouble."

"I should think they'd know on the bookstall at Uxbridge Road, or tell me how to find out" "Are you really keen on the work, Cecil?" . - "I am madly keen on it, Adam! Oh, you can't think what a dull thing my life was until you came. I saw no one but old Mrs. Smith. You know what father" is like; you know precisely how much intelligent satisfaction one gets out of him. Sometimes" her voice sank" sometimes I would not tell any one but you I used to get so depressed, so lonely, that I used to think I, too, would drink to ease my heartache!" . "Good Heavens, little girl," he said quickly, "you must never do that! Promise me, Cecil, that you won't!" "It's in the family, I suppose; but yes, I'll promise you!" It was dark when they climbed on their bus for the homeward journey. They had the top to themselves. For a little while neither of them spoke. "Adam, it has been a happy day!" Cecil said at last. "Thank you ever so much!" " - "Thank you, kiddy! How on earth can you thank tne for anything when you've done such a Jolly lot for me, and are so awfully good to me?" "I am not 'good' to you!" Cecil whispered. "It isn't goodness to do things if if one cares!" She had not meant to say that; it had slipped out "I am glad I do care," she went on desperately, "and and I want you to know! You're fond of me, too, aren't you?" she asked wistfully. Robert, his face invisible in the darkness, did not answer for a moment. Why had he been so blind? Why had he never dreamed of this? He had thought Cecil a child; he had been grateful to her, amused by her. She leaned against him; her hair brushed his face.

Do You Neglect Your Machinery ? The machinery of the body needs to be well oiled, kept in good condition just as the automobile, steam engine or bicycle. Why should the human neglect his own machinery more than that of bis horse or his engine? Yet most people do neglect themselves. To clean the system at least once a week is to practice preventive measures. You will escape many ills and clear up the coated tongue, the sallow complexion, the dull headache, the lazy liver, if you will take a pleasant laxative made up of the May-apple, juice of the leaves of aloe, root of jalap, and called Pleasant Pellets. You can obtain at almost any drug store In this country these vegetable pellets in vials for 25o dimply ask for Dft-Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They have the Dr.. R. V. Pierce tamp upon them. ' ; South Bend, Ind. "kfi a purgative and cure for sluggish liver I think Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are just fine. It is quite a few years since I had occasion to need them, but I feel sure that it is on their account that my liver is in such good condition today, I would advise any one troubled witfr. constipation and sluggish liver to give, the 'Pleasant Pellets' a trial."

"You do care a little, don't you?" she whispered. Good Heavens! She was a little brick! He was a poor fool without a memory, without money! . She had done everything for him; and now, when she told him so shyly that she loved him, he found nothing to say. - He put his arm round her. He had not meant to kiss her, but somehow her face was lifted and their lip3 met! "Cecil, will you marry me?" she heard his voice asking hoarsely. f; CHAPTER XIV -A Ray of Hope In Junethe coronation was to be celebrated. Among the prominent German visitors over in England to view the marvelous scene was Professor Steinus. He had a suite at the Coburg Hotel. The day after his arrival, when he was resting peacefully, and digesting his somewhat heavy lunch at the same time, a card was brought to him. "Lady Torrens," he read. He pushed his spectacles farther up his nose. "Why seeks this lady thus to disturb me?" he said in a deep voice to the page-boy. '"Oo knows, sir?" said . the lad, shifting uneasily. He had, in common with many of his nation, a distrust of foreign notabilities. "Woman is ever the disturber!" the professor growled. "Conduct her to me, Kellner!" Lady Torrens, a brave old figure in her flowered silken gown, and carrying a lace sunshade, sailed graciously into the room. "You must forgive me, herr professor," she said, "for this unpardonable intrusion; but I plead, in my defense, your far-reaching fame!" She sat down and opened her fan. "We, in England, know you as the greatest brain specialist in Europe," she went on. "I have come to implore your help and sympathy." "Wherefore?" the professor asked, his gray, eyes gleaming behind their glasses. - "Herr professor," Lady Torrens said very earnestly, "is it possible for an operation to be performed on the brain which would take away the memory?" "There is not one, but many operations that could the memory displace," Herr Steinus said. He leaned forward. "Is that the help?" he asked,- smiling. "And do we advance o the sympathy?"

"I am in great trouble," poor Lady Torrens said, " and I have come here as a last hope!" Then, with every . detail, she. told Herr Steinus the account of Robert's illness and his subsequent disappearance. With half closed eyes the old man listened to her, his head, with its bushy gray heair, bent forward, his hands clasping his meerschaum pipe. "Colossal Interessant!" he ejaculated. "Maline Gorde operated, gracious lady?" "Yes." " The keen eyes' blinked. To be continued
