Doctor Fighting Infltftnse Explains How Cuwtv* tatum Went From Pat I to vfiiuaitv The prevalence of tafiuensa and pneumonia with their high death rate makes it imperative to resort to heroic methods of treatment Hither than to follow the accepted ones only. The lack of serum or other ?specific remedy for tnfiuensa, writes Dr. Oharles It Humbert In the Medical Record, to gether with the Inability to obtain entlpneumococeua serum forced m* to uae convalescent serum. ^ The Endless Chain.?-It Is a . wall known fact that persons conva^ea&ng from pneumonia have antl-bodles In their blood streams. As soon aa the patlenta* condition permits, therefore, they are bled aa mutfti and as frequent ly as possible. Serum Is prepared and treated,- uud la placed In stock. When another pa-* tient comes in with pneumonia, treat ment la begun. When convalescence sets In the above procedure is repoat ed.< It is a case of one fives serum to fcwo, two gives serum to three and eo on, the procedure becoming endless. Censor's Office Boy. It must be the censor's office boy who Is responsible for some of the n* garlea of the blue pencil. Not long ago some patriotic soul quoted Kipling's Une from the "Recessional,** "The cap tains and the kings depart." He had the surprise ot his life-when the word "kings" was struck out But worse la bow reported. Another ^ scribe, greatly daring In the meatiest days, quoted Thomss Hood's joke la an ar ticle on "Wayside Graves," or some thing equally solemn: : "So they buried ben at four crose ronds # , With a stake in his inside." That was too much for the censor's office boy, A .stake In his Inside, In* deed. The censor's office boy knew If he knew how to spell that the food controller would, never sanction a whole "steak"?a nice, suqculent, Juicy steak, in anybody's inside. So he de leted the offending lines. Who shall say that we are not ardently patri otic people)?London News. ?lew Sartorial Reconstruction. The question of civilian equipment has its humorous as well as Its seri ous aapects for the honorobly dis charged soldier or sailor. Some are lucky enough to return Immediately and completely to "cits," while others, Mas-fortunate, must content them selves with a sort of half and half adornment. It ' no longer causes astonishment to detect a pair of neat ly crdased trousers hanging stiffly be neath military khskl overcoat, or to see the short blue jacket of the sailor covering an otherwise perfect civilian outfit. These are some of the minor problems of reconstruction.?New York Sun. \ Remarkable Repair Ship.

A Company Being Organized To DRILL FOR OIL NEAR CHARLESTON We are going to drill to 4,000 feet though we expect to strike Oil before we reach that depth. ? t u ' Indications Are Favorable?South Carolina has never been exploited for oil, and before a well is drilled for the purpose of locating oil, there are two things that are essential. FIRST: There should be a favorable geological formation in which Oil may accumulate and be stored. * SECOND: There should be favorable surface indications. The Sedimentary Strata of the Coastal Plains are as a matter of fact, favor-: able for the accumulation and storing of Oil. We have found such favorable sur face indications near Charleston thai we are lead to believo that Oil may be ioiind. It is in the Sedimentary Strata that we propose to sink a well. AN INVESTMENT OF $100 Suppose you invested $100.00 in this comfoany?of course there is a chance of losing it all, there is a chance in almost any business?but suppose we "brought in*' a well that flowed 15,000 barrels of Oil daily. The investment of $100.00 in this com* Rany would pay you $700.00 each month, while your original shares would be worth undreds of times what it cost you. The richest fields of Oklahoma, Texas, Louisi ana and Mexico were brought in just as we are to do here, put down a test well. ORGANIZERS WELL KNOWN MEN This company is fair and square in every way; every cent you pay in will be. used in p roving if there i* oil here.
