La Grippe Is Infectious but Not Con
tagious. Contagious diseases are communi
cated from one person to another; In
fectious diseases are convoyed through
the air.
Smallpox Is a contagious disease;
La Grippe Is Infectious. When nn epi
demic of the grip Is prevailing It H
In the nlr we breathe and no out!
Is safe.
The only safeguard In to keep the
system In the highest possible condi
tion of health nnd on tho llrst nppear
ance of a cold In tho head to use some
safe antiseptic like Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets freely, n tablet taken every
hour or two for a couple of days will
b" sufllelent! to break up tho attack.
La Grippe attacks the weakest part
of the system, It may bo the lungs,
heart, liver, stomach or kidneys, but
wherever It dually locates It almost
Invariably starts with cold In the head
nnd tin out or In other words, th
disease at the beginning Is acute ca
tarrh. This Is the reason Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets have beew uccissfui In
breaking up attacks of grip. Tins
antiseptic properties of the remedy
destioy the germs before the whols
system Is thoroughly Infected.
Dr. Annlston says: Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets being free from cocalno nnd
harmful drugs should bo freely used
nt this time of the year on the first
appearance of gilp symptoms.
They check the excessive catarrhal
nrcretlons, stop the fever 'nnd prevent
pneumonia.
They are composed of nntlseptlcs
and may be used by little children as
fre:ly us by tidults and with great
benefit.
Dr. Lewiston says: My usual pre
scription for tho grip Is Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets, which can be found at
oil diug stores. Keep to the house
tor a day or two nnd use the tablets
freely, and I have never heard any
complaint of failure to cure.

A Pathetic Reminder of the Death of
the Young Officer.
A pathetic lemlnder of the recent
death of rirst Lieutenant Isaac Iirown
of fdmpnny IC, was received yestor
tlay by (.'aptaln P. 1!. Atherton, adju
tant of the Thirteenth regiment. The
1'ito ottlcor was elected llrst lieuten
ant only a few weeks ago, and when
Captain Atherton opened bis mall yes
terday mottling ho lound In It tho
commission of Lieutenant Urovvn.
Accompanying It was a letter from
Adjutant General Stewart, directing
that tho commission bo not handed
him until ho had taken his oath ot
filPce. The commission will bo given
the paronU of the do.ul young man
and they will undoubtedly treasure It
highly.
NOT MANY CHANGES NEEDED.
Plenty of Itoom in Federnl Bulldlnf
to Accommodate New Couit.
It Is not anticipated that any very
great changes will have to bo made
at tho local government building to
uooommodate the olllceis for the new
Kedaral court for the now district
which has just boon created by congress.
There are sufllelent looms on tno sec
ond floor at present. It Is believed, to
accommodate the olllcars of tho court,
who may come from this city and who
may accordingly desire to establish a
permanent headquarters in the local
government building. If there shall bo
a, lack of room on the second floor
there are several rooms on the third
now used as storerooms for tho In
ternal levonue department, which
might be utilized.
