INFLUENZA! People Strongly Urged to Continue Precautions as Iso lated Outbreaks are Expected Throughout Winter Infection Proved Only Possible by I of Vicious Infii It has been clearly established that the living virulent influenza germs are readily conveyed from one person to another.' These germs are present in the ex cretions of the nose, mouth and throat or other air passage and as these mucous excretions are discharged the living germs go with them. I.IVING GERMS AFLOAT These germs are so exceedingly ismall that the minutest even invisible particles of this discharge may con tain these in great numbers. These discharges are most frequently and widely scattered in the air as an al most invisible spray of coughing and sneezing unless the nose and mouth are covered by a handkerchief or other efficient substitute. By this simple precaution all these dangerous germs may be kept out of the air and the largest risk of the conveyance to others of this disease avoided. WARNINGS Don't become alarmed. Keep your balance, watch and give every atten tion to your nose and throat. Keep your mouth shut and breathe through your nose previously applying a little Forkola to the inside of the nostrils. This serves to collect and destroy the germs at the entrance to your system and before they can do any damage Keep warmlly clad and wear heavy soled shoes. Sleep with the windows open but be careful to have amnle bed-clothes. SYMPTOMS The first symptoms are chills, a headache and depression and In the great majority of cases a feeling of catching cold and fever.

I want to say to you that we are about to ask the Legislature for some legisla tion that will reorganize our depart ment and bring It up to a standard where it can render effeclent service. "If legislation grants us that power" We hope to catch up with the lagging work of the department. Heretofore there has been only on examination a year of state institutions and in the case of some banking companies the banking department is two years be hind. "We hope to increase our force un til we have enough men to accom plish our work. When our examiners come to your offices, they will treat you with respect, and if they don't I want you to report them to me; Being a gentleman Is not incosistent with the performance of official du ties. On the other hand, we do not ptomise you' that we won't ask you to obey the law strictly." In telling these bankers that upon them is placed the burden of the present, critical problems Mr. Fisher said: "If you keep your banks clean and solid and within the lines of safety, you have a firm rock upon which a pre-war foundation will be builj. If you do loose, wild banking more or less, you'll create sand on which our future will fall." Entrance Through Nose and Mouth luenza Germs. tity of Forkola. Take a hot bath, as hot as you can stand it, a hot drink, preferably hot lemonade and a good laxative and gro to bed. AND NOW 'COMES THE IMPORTANT ADVICE. These symptoms show that the germ has a foothold. Make up your mind you'll soon be well. Keep your bed room window open but have heat in the room. Exercise the same care as in measles, diphtheria or smallpox. Don't allow a careless physician to minimize the importa .ee of your case but be most careful to expectorate in gauze or In rage that must be burned and not washed. But above all do not forget to ap ply Forkola liberally In the mucous membrane of the nose and throat. This is just as important as the hot bath and hot drinks. THE PNEUMONIA OP INFLUENZA Which is a frequent complication, while apparently very severe may dis appear in a night under proper treat ment and the best way for a person afflicted with Influenza to avoid Pneu monia is to go to bed at once and stay there until the physician permits you to get up. While In bed the back, throat and chest should be liberally covered with Forkola and flannel ap plied to en sure the necessary heat for its absorption. Allow a little to melt in your mouth three or four times daily. It soothes and heals the in flamed membranes and permits the easy expulsion of phlegm. IMPOHTANT—in some districts the demand for Forkola has been so heavy that there is a temporary shortage.

The production during the week ending February 1 was 700,000 tons and it fell somewhat below that figure last week, but operators of the Barnesboro group, who were in Altoona-for a conference yesterday, gave it as their omnion that the trend will soon be in the other direc tion.

Private Howell B£cht Arrives Home After a Stirring War Experience "Hello, Dad!" The voice was familiar to Dr. J. George Beeht, secretary of the State Board of Education, as he entered the University Club at Philadelphia yes terday, and he was not exactly sur prised, but certainly delighted to see the brave figure of Private Howell Becht, who had just arrived from, France on the Celtic, and who, this very minute, according to Dr. Becht, Is asleep in a regular bed at the Becht home, in Harrisburg, where he will not be disturbed by Boche shells. Young Becht had one of the most uncommon experiences of any lad who went to war from Harrisburg. He sailed abroad Christmas of last year with the First Gas and Flame Regi ment, better known as the Hell Fire Unit, after training at Wahington with his comrades, who were mostly American college lads. This unit was hurried across and chummed in with the British in the Flanders front at the most deadly moment, and though not long trained, made good, .with bolls on. They handled gas, bombs and Stokes trench mortars, and were sopn shifted to Frensh forces at Chateau Thierry, being on the job/at Argonne end Verdun. Becht saw one year of the fiercest combat and never got a wound, though baptized in Flanders Field, and for one year in the very vortex of battle. "It's kind o' good to see you back," was "Pop" Becht's salutation, for he is handicapped with a bad cold, but bystanders noticed a suggestion of husklness which was not due to the cold.
