bert Tillman, a prominent young
I physician, was arrested yesterday on
| a warrant charging manslaughter.
The prosecution follows the recent

and charges that Dr. Tillman failed
Ito furnish proper care, medicine and

ness.
Mrs. Tillman was a social favorite.
It is said that she and Dr. Tillman
separated several months ago, but a
reconciliation took place recently
and she returned to her husband. A
i few days later she was stricken with
I influenza. Dr. Tillman says the prose
icution is the result of spite work.

HEALTH BOARD
GIVES WARNING OF
INFLUENZA DANGER
Ask People to Be Careful and
Take Proper Treatment
Promptly. Many Pneumonia
Cases Follow Influenza.
What to Do.
To be prepared for the serious out
breaks of Influenza and Pneumonia
that are now sweeping over the en
tire country and that have seized on
this community. Public Health Boards
everywhere are issuing cautions and
instructions to the public not to neg
lect treatment at the first symptom
of a cold and to co-operate with the
board and physicians in stamping
out the spread of the disease.
No disease develops so quickly or
spreads so rapidly. The first symp
tom usually' is a sharp rise in tem
perature to 103 or 104 degrees, head
ache, pain in the back, throat feeling
dry or sore. Unless promptly checked
by proper treatment, the best, plan
is to go to bed and stay there for at
least a week, keeping warnr to avoid
pneumonia, and let the minor ailment
run its course and also prevent the
spread of the disease to others.
Most of us. in these busy days, can
not afford, if it can be avoided, to
lose u week or more of work, so It is
all the more necessary that at the
very first sign of grip or influenza a
counter-acting treatment should be
taken. >.
Probably no better or more effec
tive treatment could be followed at
such a time than to -et from the
nearest drug store a complete Hyomei
outfit, consisting of a bottle of the
pure Oil of Hyomei and a little vest
pocket. hard rubber inhaling device
into which a few drops of the oil are
poured.
This is all you will need. Put the
Inhaler in your mouth and breathe its
air deep into the passages of your
nose, throat and lungs. Every par
ticle of air that enters your breath
ing organs will thus be charged with
an antiseptic, germ-killing balsam
that, will absolutely destroy the germs
of influenza that have found lodg
ment there.
You can't do this too often. The
Hyomei Inhaler iB small and can be
conveniently carried in a handbag or
in your vest pocket. Every haL hour
or so throughout the day take it out
and draw a few breaths of Its pure*
healing air into your nose and throat. |
Relief comet almost instantly. The
Grip or Influenza symptoms subside.
Congestion ceases, fever disappears,
throat conditions become normal and
you soon are feeling fine. The outfit
is not at all expensive, for the rubber
inhaler will last a lifetime, while the
*Otl of Hyomei can be obtained at lit
" tie cost from any reliable druggist.
Lots of people already have a
Hyomei Inhaler. Take It out, charge
It and use It without delay. If you
haven't one, get It to-day.
A few cents spent now may easily
prevent serious Illness and save you
many dollars and help stamp out the
spread of the disease.
Advance in Fares
Allowed For War
The Public Service Commission in
an extended opinion by Commission
er JamesAlcom dismissed complaints
against the increased fures, includ
ing an advance to six cents, Inaugu
rated last June by the Indiana Coun
ty Street Railway Company; but In
so doing says: "As the Increased cost
of bperatlon due to the abi/jrmal
conditions now existing Is the
ground for supporting an increase
in the rates of fare it would be only
proper that whert these conditions
cease the old rate should be restored
or the company be required to show
that it Is still entitled to the addi
tional revenue;" 'The rates are ap
proved until January 1, 19B0; The
opinion also eemmends to the notice

Women of America
Are Urged to Fight
"Compromise Peace"
New York. An appeal urging the
women of the United States to de
mand unconditional surrender as the
only price of peace has been sent by
Elizabeth Marbury. honorary presi
dent of the Women's National Com
mittee of tho American Defense So
ciety, to the local branches of the
organization throughout the country.
Her appeal re-ads:
"I ask all Women of this country
to protest against, any peace save
that whieh Is based upon the uncon
ditional surrender of Germany, 1
ask you tn remember her treachery,
her cruelty and her persistent viola
tion cf every law Of decency and of
fever.# impulse of humanity,
"1 ask you to realise that the work
of Womert who are in hospitals, homes
and devastated lands was made a
necessity by the war of death and
destruction promulgated by that Ger
n any whlefi Is now prattling of
peaqe;
,7 | ask you not to forget that the
Collev of Germany lias been forever
ased upon a tissue of lies and upon
the knavery of Cunning and her
devilish submarines. Her poisonous
gases, hef hideous atrocities aro
how the foundation of their proposed
peace;
"I ask you to feel that every man
who has died for our flag, or who
stands ready to die for It. forbids the
nation to aeeept aught at the hands
Of Germany other than a surrender
that is absolute,
'The t)me for pacifists and 'pussy
footers is over. They were Interred
by President Wilson In April, 1917.
and should they become resurrected
they must be Interned at once and for
all by the American people. The in
spiration of present victory should
not direct us to any gentle prome
nade along 'easy street,' It should
not withhold us from investing our
money in Liberty Bonds. It should not
slacken our feet nor stay our hands,
but it should make us race the fact
that the moment has come when we
must, so do our all—'not your bit'—
so that the road to final victory Rliall
be the highway leading to Berlin,
with our flag unfurled above Its
very gates,
"Nothing short of this should ever
satisfy the men, women anil children
of our Allied countries to whom the
Kaiser and his people bow.
"Just because our encmv Is now
tasting the bitterness of defeat, be
cause It Is staggering beneath the
Mows of our defenders, because it is
drivelling and snivelling and afraid
It is seeking an armistice in order to
muster its scattered forces for a fresh
attack is the reason why we should
refuse to parley now or pause even
to discuss.
"At this very moment while hypo
critically extending the olive branch
the retreating armies of Germany are
still crushing with Iron heel the citi
zens of the countries they have laid
waste. They are burning and pillag
ing as they withdraw. They are flood
ing and destroying the coal mines of
the North so that women and chil
dren may die of the coal even as
men have died of the sword.
"Women of America, remember all
this. Never forgot for a single in
stant and demand that the onlv price
of peace must be the surrender and
the defeat of that Germany which
has brought the seourage of war
upon the world."

: Factors in Kansas
Election Campaign
I Topeka, Kan.—As a typical agrl
-1 cultural state, the political reaction
( of the war here is the subject of
much discussion, Kansas In the
r 1916 campaign gave Wilson a major
-1 lty of 86,900, and at the same time
s elected Arthur Capper, Republican,
(j Governor by 168,000 and the Repub
lican state ticket otherwise by 80,000
7 to 100,000, Five Democratic Con
e gressmcn were elected by from 2,000
s to 10,000 majorities and three Re
r publican Congressmen by 3,000 to
_ 8,000. This year all the Congress
d men are candidates for re-election;
j Capper ts a cundidnte for United
™ States Senator. On the face of It,
' Kansas ought by all precedent bo
j heated to fever temperuture over
- the campaign. The truth Is that
J politics is so quiet that one would
j scarcely be aware that an election Is
, nearly due.
1 With full suffrage for women,
e much of the result will hinge on
"j their attitude toward tho war con
, ditions. Undoubtedly, they were re
* sponsible for the Wilson majority,
believing that In that direction lay
r peace. It has been argued that they
2 would experience a revulsion of feel
ing and vote galnst the Democratic
v Congressmen as an expression of
- their opinions. Yet reports do not
® fully bear out such conclusion. I
I no state have the women entered
o more heartily into the war work,
h Red Cross chapters are organized in
almost every township, and war
n meetings have large attendance of
. women. Practically every woman
h has some relative in the service, and
e it Is conceivable that tho women
j voters will conclude that there Is
. greater advantage for the boy in
- service through a Congressman of
f the President's own faith than by
" one who is of an opposite party. It
8 is upon this Idea that the Democrat-
II ic campaign is being conducted and
- women voters are flooded with llt
•j erature saying that the election of a
l] Republican Congress would "dlsar
r range our war program" and "be
taken as a comfort to Germany."
