How 70 Recognize the Symptoms and
How 10 Treat Them.

Hundreds OF people have the grippe who do not
know it, Not necessarily the final stages, but
the first stages. They feel pains in the head,
and lad taste In the mouth, get tired and de-
spondent, have chilly sensations, limbs and
muscles ache. In some cases these things arc
overlooked In most cases perhaps they are con-
sidered simply slight cold. In nearly every
case they indicate the coming OF Grippe.
There is but one thing to do when these symp-
toms appear, and that is to take prompt and
vigorous measures 10 fortify nature TO repel the
enemy. A little well-directei effort at just the
right time will accomplish very much more than
labored efforts afterwards. There is but one
thing to be done, and that Ia to use pure stinu-
liant, something that win promptly arrest, and In
no way injure, something endorsed by scientists.

night without TODD or shelter. A fayoraoie,
breeze sprang up the next day and waited

till late last night. The snow Is about
four or five inches deep on an average. but
is slowly melting to-day. though the
