THE GRIP PREVAILS AGAIN.
WHAT THE HEALTH DEPARTMENT SAYS
OF IT'S RAvAGES, AND MEANS OF
PRECAUTION AGAINST IT

when II causes bronchitis pneumonia or when il
fatally aggravates consumption.
The first visitation of the grip in epidemic form
was in the last week in December. 1889. in which
week there were 1913 fatal cases. In January. 1880
there 2s4 cases and in the year 1890 there
34. The number of deaths in January from bron-
chitis, pneumonia and consumption 39 ILL
and 49, respectively, a total of 2.299. showing
increase OF l.2e7 the number of deaths from
the same diseases in the corresponding month of
1889. This great increase the health authorities
attribute Largely to the grip accelerating
cause of death. The first epidemic reached its
height in about two weeks. and then slowly abated
