A fine card Is said to have been prepared and that svery lover of the races will be more than satisfied if the weather man will be generous and permit them to do their best. Eagles Will IMcuIc. The Eagles are planning for a gay time at their picnic at Ton Mile to morrow In which nearly all of tho Eagles and their families in this sec tion are planning to participate. Tho 3oys of the day will more than re compense the excursionists for hav ing to nrlso early In order to catch tho boat which will leave tho dock In the rear of Wolcott'B grocery at 5 a. m. tomorrow morning. There will be picnic parties galore, both branches of Coos river, the north fork of tho Coqullle, Char leston Bay, Sunset Bay and the beaches being some -of the objective points. Young and old will parti cipate In these. Tho edict of Marshal J. W. Cartor today that tho dlschargo of fire works and firo-crnckers In the city will result In the arrest of the boys or parties responsible, unless they hnve a permit from the city officials, Is likely to dampen the ardor of some of the entliuslnslsts whoso Idea of celebrating Is to make as much noise as possible. Tho order wns necessary to prevent possible fires, the danger tomorrow being great on account of so many being absent from their stores. Large Number of People Give Up Lives For Celebrations Guard Against Lockjaw. All over the country, cities, towns and families are today preparing for , the Fourth of July celebration. The work Is both offensive and defensive. ' It Is offensive In that It is dlsagree- I able, noisy, bad smelling and danger- ous. It Is defensive In that prudent , mothers and prudent physicians and undertakers are preparing poultices and plasters, lint and surgical instru- ments, hospitals and cofilns for the slain, and tho wounded of that dlre- j ful day. In tho matter of foolish and ' foolhardy celebration tho United States on the Fourth of July takes tho cake. The Surgeon General of the Army i has caused a circular suggesting pre cautions against tetanus, or lock jaw, the Inevitable Fourth of July epidemic. In the last Ave years there have been 78G cases of tetanus ns the result of our Independence Day cele bration. 721 have died. G08 of these deaths resulted from blank cartridge wounds the blank cartridges are mistakenly supposed to be harmless. The warning gives the following ex planation of the origin and operation of the tetanus bacillus. The bacillus of tetanus or Its spore form, is found In earth, es pecially garden earth, stable man ure, tho dust of the streets, stables and human habitations. The feces of healthy animals, such as the horse, cow, dog, and even man, may contain tetanus spores. Lockjaw and Its Cure. When tetanus spores are Intro duced under the skin, they at once germinate, if oxygen is excluded, and begin to elaborate tetanus toxin. In a short time It appears in the blood, which carries it to all parts of the body, where it is absorbed by the motor nerve endings which are bath ed in the toxin-laden fluid. The ner ves supplying the jaws, especially the masseteric, seem to have an exag gerated affinity for the poison, which explains the early trismus. The following treatment for Fourth of July injuries Is suggested: "Incise freely every wound. "Carefully and thoroughly remove from the wound every particle of for eign matter. "Cauterize tho wound thoroughly with 2G per cent carbolic ncld. "Apply loosely a wet pack of 25 per cent carbolic acid. "Give a full doso of antltctanic serum.

I KtfrrfckHtMT'fc'T'!T ' Getting Ahead Of The Sluggards ( P LOW deep whilo sluggards sleep nnt? you'll have corn to sell and keep," wrote Benjamin Franklin.. If there Is any feature of your llfo or business which has never lx?en properly ex ploited In the advertising columns of tho newspapers tho opportunity Is open to you to profit by Franklin's suggestion. Many of tho rich men of todny wero tho ploaew advertisers in their respective fields not so many years ago, turning the virgin soil with tho plow of publicity whilo their sluggish competitors roetfully clung to tho antiquated sales methods of nnothor generation. "Plowing dcey" is nn advantageous policy under any circumstances; but H la tehfo!d remunerative if tho chance offers to do tlio plowing before others begin.
