Doctors agree in the opinion that |
the best way Of protecting ones self
against an attack of the grip is to
keep the general health as good as
possible, to be careful not to catch
cold, to live temporarily, to breathe
pure air, to avoid bad habits, and to
take enough sleep. The grip is a
painful, harassing, harmful aud dan
gerous disease, affecting both the
body and the mind, which often gives
way and for days the patient is raw
ing lunatic.
