BETTER TIMES AHEAD It is pleasant in these tryi'v? time; to get a word of cheer or a line ol optimism. The purpose of The Adver tiser is to look on the bright side anc to encourage its readers to do the same. An exchange suggests that Uncle Sam is just now recovering from i bad headache as the result of the re cent war, but he its getting over it Nobody can go on a spree without a subsequent headache. We went or a spree of war extravagance ant waste, and we are having our head ache, and not anything fatal. We can take comfort in the fad that our Uncle Sam is ricV and there's life in the old lan.t y>'c. he banks v ill loosen up, fac tones will be bu:,^ and farnici will share in the general prosperity. Look up and not down is good ad vice and very applicable to present conditions. HOPE FOR IRELAND It does begin to look as if Eng land and Ireland may yet corr.e to getlier and settle their differences Not only has King George made i most conservative address to do jus tice to Ireland but Premier Lloyt George has sent a iette?- to Valcra president of the "Republic of Ire land" asking for a conference be tween the British government am representatives of Northern and Sou them Ireland. The reeogr>'t;?n o Valera as president of the Irish Re public is going pretty far towan peaceful eiforts on the part of th British empire. The premier refer to Valera as the chosen leader of tfr great majority of South Ireland am indicates a desire for an adjustmen c?f the troubles that have been rif< so long and were going from bad t< worse. A SAM JONES REMINDER '1 he ''city marshall" of Flower Branch. Georgia, went to Atlanta ti arrest an engineer who ran his trail through that little town faster thai the rules and regulations of said towi permits. The marshall said to the engineer "The ruling minds of Flower Branch decided six miles an hour wa: a plenty of speed for these trains t< go through town, and remarks fron a fresh engineer won't keep me fron enforcing thc> law, even if he doe. live in a city." lie also resented the remark o the engineer that Flowery Brand was only a hog wollow and a catth pen. This is a reminder of an incident in the life of the noted evangilist Sam Jones. He was on his way to de liver a lecture while the train was pulling slowly through a town ir Gorgia that had the same regulations as the little town of Flowery Branch Sam Jones wrote to an Atlanta pap or, telling of the foolish regulations that kept him from getting to the town where he was to lecture. The City Council replied to Rev Sam, intimating that they knew their own business and did not need any advice. 'I'L ? i i ne oniy reply tne "Vange!t:l made to the card of the counciimcn was: "I want to know who knocked the lights out of that factory," referring to a large factory building, standing idle and all th,. glass knocked out of the windows.

Typhoid F'v?r?How to Eradicate. The cause of typhoid is a germ cnlled the Bacillus Typhosus. This germ enters the human body through the mouth, passes through the stomach and lodges in some limphoid i gland in the smaller intestines,known ' as pyers' patches. Here they break down limphoid tissues and form little ulcers. These germs multiply rapidly ar.d enter directly into the blood . stream and as soon as the resistance of the infected person is overccm" he or she comes down with typhoid 1 fever immediately. 1 Typhoid germs are then in great . number in the patient's blood, they are found by the millions in the patient's mouth, on his lips, on his skin and found in great numbers in his excreta. Observe the following rules when handling typhoid patients: 1. Confine the patient to a well , lighted and well ventilated room,with I screened windoNvs as remote as pos-| sible from the other occupied rooms in the house. 2. This room should be stripped of fancy curtains, carpets and upholstery, and all other furniture not necessary for the convenience of the occupant. Soiled bed and body clothing, including handerchiefs and s cloths for collection of discharges f from the nose and mouth, or those - soiled by vomited matter, shouh. be i thoroughly disinfected. This may be ? done by placing in water and boHed for thirty minutes or by the use of ? the following chemical disinfectant: i Eight teaspoonfuls of a solution of . Formaldehyde (37 per cent) to a . pint of water. A tub or vessel ront taining a sufficient quantity of the i disinfecting solution should be kept I in a convenient place for soaking bed and body linen. Place all clothing in this vessel immedintly upon its reL moval from the bed of body of the i patient and allow it to soak for three I hours, after which it should be boiled - for one hour. 1 Do not carry infected clothing through the house, or store it with . other soiled material, t Burn all remnants of food left by the patient. The nurse or attendant should not use eating utensils or drinking vessels from the sick room, i ii . ; i 'WII//' i i I 1 ou3 f 1 t ] TVHX1SHO DOMESTIC A J A R. J.

A basin containing Bicholride of Mercury solution (one tablet to one quart of water) or other good anti- bseptic solution, should be kept or. p stantly made up so that the hands di may be immediately whshed after handling any secretions or clothing f] from the patient. tt The typhoid germs contained in tl discharges from the bowels, or any d vomited matter should be disinfected by the addition of the standard solu- p tion of Chlorinated-Lime (Chlorideof Lime or bleaching powders) or c Creolin sufficient to more than cover ii the discharges, or if the discharges t: are liquid, add a quantity equal in' g bulk. s The nmss formed should be thor- f oughly stirred, breaking up any ? solid masses, and vessels with contents should be allowed to stand at t least one-half an hour before empty- c ing. I; Never empty the discharge upon ^ the surface of the ground, or into a 1 stream. a If sewerage system exists, use it, but only after a thorough dUinfoi tion of the discharge. If a privy well exists, use it, or bury the disinfected matciial at least one-foot below the surface of the j ground and not less than one huns dred yards from the weil or Q water course. It should be out of reach of dogs or cats, as they will carry the tilth and germs op their feet ^ into residences. Add disinfectant solution to all water that has been used for bath- , ing the patient and dispose of it in the same manner as the discharges. ^ The air in the sick room cannot be ' disinfected during occupancy by the ' patient . The practice of hanging up clothes satuated with carbolic acid, s or of placing caucers of Chlorinated ^ Lime, or proprietary disinfectants ^ in the sick room, is not only annoying to the patient, but utterly useless and often injurious. An abundance of fresh air she uM be admitted to the room, but the pat- t ient should he protected from direct c draughts. s Flies must be carefully kept from "t the room and any found should be kill- t ed. Dogs and cats and othei pets should be quarantined and disinfect- 4 1 I tfrow You can't beat a Camel, beca tobacco that goes into Camels. That's why Camels are the tnow and love fine tobacco.

Follow these rules all through the ntire illness. Do not relax them dur-j j ig convalescence, but continue un-j j il entire recovery, as the specific ( erm of typhoid may exist in the ! tools or urine of typhoid patients ' or at least four weeks after the dis- : ppearance of the feverr. , After the removal of the patient, he sick room, and everything it ontains should be disinfected by formaldehyde Gas. The b-^d and ( iody clothing should be soaked for hree hours in the antiseptic solution lready described and then boiled. Do You Know? That a fly in a typhoid patient's com is as dangerous as a snake or a nad dog? Let's have more honorable isitors. That the Troup County Board of lealth is giving typhoid vaccine abolutely free of charge for the eradiation of typhoid fever. Are you doing your part? That it is a reflection on the atending physician and the intelligence f the family for one patient to conract typhoid fever from another in ( he family? That dangerous diseases, such as yphoid fever, tuberculosis, diptheria, I carlet fever and pyorrhoea can be J ransmitted from one person to anther by a clinical thermometer?

Naturall its dailv welfnir is nmoncr your first thoughts. But daily welfare is not sufficientThere is a tomorrow-a future-that must he considered. 'lhe child of today will not always he a child. Some day it will be a man, or a woman, earring the burdens that maturity entails. Children should be prepared for the morrow before the morrow is iere. The mind that knows only tthe things of today soon reverts to those of yesterday. It has no future. It dwells upon the past. The vision is limited to the things it has seen and those that are set before it. It is capable of functioning, but I not of progressing. It is the mind of the person who is content to take life as it comes, with little opportunity for improvement, and ;less eff toward advancement. The daily welfare of a child is one of great concern, but the shaping of the mind for the future is infinitely more importance. Aroused by the recurring fatal accidents in the armv air sefvim retary Weeks has written to Major Gen. Menoher, chief of that service, asking that, every precaution be takeny to prevent further accidents. "There have been too many accidents to suit me," said Mr. Weeks "1 have written Gen. Menoher sayiny that the greatest care should be used to prevent accidents if possibl0." Four ac cidents with a loss of eighteen lives have occurred in the army air service . in the last few weeks, and thj. War Secretary said he had requsted that there be careful inspection of airplanes and their accessories prior to oach flight and at all other times. ^ FARM FOR SALE?The W. A.
