Columbus Journal. How Birds Fortstall Weather. Migratory birds aud fowls that go north In summer are sure to fly south previous to cold and stormy weather. When these buds are noticed flying In circles, and darting restlessly about, tbere is usually a severe at mospheric disturbance not far distant, such as 4 cyclone or tornado. I DON'T GET MALARIA Simple Suggestions for Avoiding "Chills and Fever" This is "malaria season" but malaria is puing out of style. No one ever has malaria these days unless he is behind the times, doesn't know how to avoid it or is too indolent to e.scape it. Time was when we contracted malaria, or "chills and fever" as it was called, about as ivvulai l.v as summer or fall came around. Not so now. Now we know that by taking f yrains of iiiimne daily from the first of May un til frost we are about H'.i 1 1 1 m i percent proof neainst malaria, and by increasing the daily do- a;e to 7 1-2 grains we can make it 1(KI percent. Furthermore, many of our peo ple are resenting the nightly raids of these malarial Zeppelins, and are screening their houses throughout. With more and bet ter fanning we are gradually clearing out and draining our. swamps and low places and are i thereby destroying the naval i bases of these little zeppelins. Half cured malaria is worse than a half truth. The only! thing to do with a case of ma i laria is to cure it thoroughly and then stay cured. Many doctors' in treating malaria give 30 grains of quinine for the first three days then 20 grains for a week and taper otf to about 5 grains a day, which is to be continued until frost. The faint hearted follow i directions only for a day or two! or until their chills are broken, and then quit, leaving themselves i worth about to 90 percent' par value physically for months and years. Why run on a Hat tire? Why endanger others to ; your own infection'.' Get thoroughly--cured, then stay cured. Mr. Eugene Thomas Whitehead Scotland Neck mourns the death of one of its most promi nent and useful citizens in the departure of Mr. F.ugene Tlnma Whitehead, well known all over North Carolina as one of the State's leading druggists. The funeral services took place Friday morning from his late residence. More than tint) peo ple attended the burial. The active pallbearers were.Ioe House, .1. K. Comlrey, ,lr., R. II.
