HOW TO DETECT IT.


some Hints Regarding the
Grippe-Signs offts Approach and
How to Counteract Tlem.
The discussion as to the cause of the
Grippe is, of course, interesting. but gives
little satisfaction to its unfortunate vic
Tins. Whether caused by microbe or
vagaries of the weather, its ravages con-
tinue. and the country still bends under
the scourge.
1t canno be too strongly impressed on
people that, in order to ward off the
disease, warning symptoms must be re-
gaaded and prompt action taken. 1t be-
comes extremely difficult to dislodge the
disease If allowed to take its course.
Hence its name. 1t generally. commences
with a slight headache. or pains in the
small of the back or limbs. 1t does not
always give one even as plain a hin as
that-a feeling of tightness across the
forehead, buzzing in the ears, or peculiar
feeling about the eyes, may be all the
caution one gets, so it is culpable care
~lessness to neglect even these slight signs.
The remedy lies in a stimulant, and the
preference should be given to whiskey.
All the doctors of the country are agreed
on this point, but are very careful to
impress on their patients the fact that
pure whiskey alone must be aiken.
Duffy's Pure Malt Whiskey is the purest
on the market, and can be readily OBJ
imitators who say their Whistles are
s'just as good" d. not be deceived.
They are not. Duffy's Pure Malt is the
only medicinal one.

to give variety TO the entertainment. The
singing by the children OF the church was
remarkably fine.

he is still growing in the esteem of his
