Sufferer at Waymart Seems to Be Getting Better The Situation Quite Satisfactory ns Incubation Period Is Pnssed. The small-pox situation In tho vll-Iiikc of Waymart Is quite satisfactory.

N'o now eases have developed, and as the period of Incubation, two week's, Is over today, the physicians feel quite hopeful. liert Hull, the young man who In afflicted with the disease, has taken turn fur the better. Word received from Wayniitrt last evening brought the cheering news that ho was improv-. Ing and his recovery is looked for. As monttoued before, the physicians interested in the case are hopeful that lliey have controlled its spread.

11 is two weeks today since Hull's case was diagnosed as small-pox. This Is the limit of the period of incubation, and if there was anybody who came In contact with him and In a condition to get tho disease, the symptoms should be developed by this time. The feat-is removed, therefore, of any one becoming affected outside of the Cliff famlly.whero Hull is quartered, by reason of contact Willi the sufferer. If there 1 any danger from Hull's ease now. It is perhaps only among those in the same household.

Tlie quarantine, however, will not bo removed from tlie affected house until all possible danger has passed. It was due to the quarantine being established so soon as Hull was taken sick that the spread of the disease was prevented, and it is proposed to rigidly maintain the quarantine while the danger period exists. The schools at Waymart arc closed and will not be opened until the quarantine is raised. HT THE HOSPITAL. The Palko Boy Taken There Yesterday His Condition Is Grave.
