There are always definite reasons for the trouble; and, even when habits of life are largely responsible as aggraving causes, there is always some anatomically wrong condition that predisposes the tuf teror to the trouble.

HOMEMADE Saucage and cooked meats of all kinds at Stillwell & Co' market. Phone Main 1 On Saturday. January, 12. 1937. there appeared in the La Grande Evening Observer, an article under the baad lines 'The Mayor on the War Path." Thie article is a great injustice to ame parties mentioned therein. So 'great that the undersigned desire to ente' hir earnett protest against the misuse of fact and erroneous statement that are given to the public in the above mention rti. cle. . Knowing that the subject of quaran tine is of public interest, and Instituted for the public welfare, he desires to en lighten the reader cf this paper as to the cause of the Mayor' residence beinir un der quarantine, etc. All the people of i ur city, know that their Mayor has been ill and hit misfor tune the cause of some alarm to' our citi zen. "A Bright Light Shineth on High Altar." December 25. 1906, Mr. Stod dard first consulted m regarding his recent illness and with his permision, 1 am privileged to give you brief history of his case as given to me by him. On November 27, 19C6, Mr. Stoddard went to Hot Lake, Oregon, for treatment, remaining thereabout three week. About December 1 7, he returned to La Grande. December 18 and 19, able to attend the r 1 O - - -1 - f t a I i tvM wKurouuwui uuw ua ituwweu large "blotches." the size of the end of hi finger, on his face. December -21, returned to Hot Lake. December 22, was examinid by Dr. Phy at Hot Lake, the first time a physician was consulted in regard to this eruption as it had given nim no anneyance up to this time. Dr. Phy told him the eruption looked suspici ous to him and isolated hitn n his room for the diy, and adviied him to ruturn to La Grande. December 23, he returned ' to La Grande. 1 was cilled to attend him. Upon carefuil examination I also inform ed him that the eruption looked very sus picious and that we would keep him un der observation for 24 hours to determ ine the true nature of his illness, as it was imposs.blo to make a positive diagnosis at tint time, advised him and his family tn re.mm rtt home until I should see turn the f Vi.'inrj day. which they did. December 24, ! 006. I called and found h:s body covered with a typijal eruption of urticaria, told him w:Mt it was. and that i ciuld not quarantine him for t!t outlined his treatment, etc. On De;. 26ih tha d'ag.iosis was con mmei by the City Health O.ficer. D :c. L'3, all the eruption of urticaria ' had disappeared, and the small popuies oi varioloid began to appear. I reported t-i case promptly, end the Mayor's rtsi d :ii; was placed undor quarantine. Mr Stoduard hid a ver mild attack of v.uio:oid i.v,i iniHu a rap'd recovery. The di .ease aborting in the vesicular st-iga wi:h only the formation of one or to pusties. T:ie iry interesting. part of his illness to h;a attending and consulting physicians was the fact of his having two diseases practically at the same time. The var ioloid be ng held in check until after the othrr disease had abated. Mr Stoddard was disinfected, his resi dence fumigated and the quarantine was discontinued. On Jan 7th 1907, his daughter was taken ill. Jan 8th 1 diag nosed the disease as var ioloid and the residence was again quar antined. Three more of his children are at present affected with the disease. All very mild cases of varioloid or modified small pox. Jan 1 1th the Mayor desired an Official investigation by the City Health Officers. The diagnosii ofjthe undersigned was con firmed and the quarantine continued. These are all the facts connected with the illness in the Mayor's family, and at nq time has any of bis children attended school while his residence was under quarantine, nor would he allow them to do so during the time that his own case was developing. The question naturally arises: What shall be done to prevent the spread of UPHOLSTERING OLD FURNITURE -M A D E GOOD AS NEW Lounges and couches upholstered.

Note: The article which appeared in Saturday's Observer, and referred to above, was based upon a statement made by Mayor Sloddard to the Editor of the Observer over the telephone. After calling up the Mayor this morning and asking the Mayor if he had been mis quoted, he replied that he had not, except that we had used the word smallpox in reporting the finding of the commission when we should have used the word "Varioloid". Wiih this exception the ar ticle was correet, as based upon the Mat or's statement. Editor m WANT YOUR TRADE and will treat you right at Stillwell & Co', market.
