And can it be cured?
Grip is characterized by II continued fever, by
a tendency to Inflammation of the membranes
OF the digestive and often the respiratory
tracts. by pain in the muscles, and by debility.
The grip in individual cases varies from u
Slight indisposition to severe forms with grave
symptoms-these variations depending wholly
upon the health, age. temperament or nervous
condition of the person. Those predisposed
to rheumatism suffer great pain in the mus
cIes; persons of nervous temperament become
low spirited, often have hysteria. and, If not
closely watched. have been known to- commit
suicide. Several cases of this sort have been
reported this month in the newspapers. Head
ache is a constant symptom. The bowels are
generally conStipated. Whatever form the dis
ease takes there il invariably extreme pros
tratiOn. The danger TO persons in previous
healthful condition is slight.
1t has been absolutely proven that there is
one certain preventive of serious cases of grip;
and that there Is one remedy for persons suf
fering with it. or beginning TO be convalescent

They opened up in excellent shape and scored three goals before even the Blues had a chance to prove dangerous.

Hipson and Roberts proved a very troublesome pair for the New Ha- ven defense, who had their work cut out for them in order to save defeat The Tigers fought game battle, and while they retired defeated, they were in no wise disgraced,

 The next scene introduces Herald

 some of the scenes incidental to the play. The French ball permits of the

 of a most realistic imitation of Minnie Madden Fiske, as Becky Sharpe" by

Among the comediennes will be found the latest star of the theatrical firma- ment, Etta Butler, as well as Marguer ita Sylvia, Lou Harlow, Kathlyn War ren. Hattie Delaro and many more. It will be interesting to note that this occasion will serve to introduce James J. Jeffries for the first time as an actor.
