THAT TERRIBLE GRIPPE. y
What 1t Really Is Explained by One of the
Best Informed Men in America.

The president of one of the leading New Yorl
medical colleges In conversation with the
writer the other evening, said:
50 La Grippe, the Russian influenza, that has
caused so much talk, is a more severe affiictiop
than people usually think 1t arises mysteriousk
and appears to have its origin in the atmos.
phere. The last time it visited America was in
lSO3 and it came then, as now from Asia The
name influenza comes from the suggestion
that the malady was due to the influences OF
the heavenly bodies but more modern science
has discovered that it is due to the changes in
the electrical conditions. Whatever NAV be the
cause 1t IS strong congestion of the blood
vessels and mucuos membrane principally in
the head and throat, and nothing but strong
stlmulantS will check this congestion and keen
the blood actively circulating For this purpose
Know of nothing better than whisky and I
believe Duffy'S Pure Malt to be the best and
purest whisky known TO the world
Formerly the influenza was said to precede
an epidemic of the plague, and the person who
was about to be taken with the latter had as a
preliminary. fit of sneeZing. Now it precedes
worse epidemic than the plague namely the
terrible pneumonia. Its beginning is slight. but
IT'S ending is often terrible Pains in the limbs
back, chest and head; sore throat and lack of
appetite; copous discharge of the nose; these
are some OF the symptoms of this dread disease
upon the slightest approach of any of these
symptoms, nervous feeling or lassitude, resort
should be had to pure whisky, which is the
only certain means of breaking up this epidemic
before 1T secures hold upon the system or check
IL when 1t has become started Care should be
TAKEN however, to secure only that which is
pure as the article above named certainly is"
