CONTAeION AND INFECTION.
La Grippe Is Infectious but Not Con
tagious.

Contagious diseases are commune
Gated from one person to another; In
fectious diseases are conveyed through
the air.
Smallpox is a contagious disease;
La Grippe is infectious. When an cpl
demic of the grip is prevailing IL rs
in the air we breathe and no one
is safe.
The only safeguard Is to keep the
system In the highest possible condi-
ton OF health and on the first appear
ance of cold In the head to use some
safe antiseptic like Stuarts Catarrh
Tablets freely, a tablet taken every
hour or two for q couple of days VIII
NC sufficient to break up the attack.
LA Grippe attacks the weakest part
OF the system. II may be the lungs,
heart. liver, stomach or kidneys, but
wherever 1t finally locares 1t almost
invariably starts with cold In the head
ana throat or in other words, the
disease at the beginning Is acute ca
tarrh.
This Is the reason Stuart's Catarrh
Tablets have been y successful, in
breaking up attacks Of grip. The
antiseptio properties Of the remedy
destroy the germs before the whole
system is thoroughly infected.
DR.. Admission says: Stuarts Catarrli
Tablets being free from cocaine and
harmful drugs should be freely used
at this time of the year on the first
| appearance Of grip symptoms.
They check the excessive catarrhal
| sccretions, stop the fever and prevent
pneumonia.
They are composed of antiseptics
and may be used by little children ne
| freely as by adults ana with great
| benefit.
| DIR. Lewiston says: My usual pre-
scription for the grip is Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets. which can be found NJ
all drug stores. Keep to the house
for a day or two and use the tablets
freely. and I have never heard any
| complaint OF failure 20 cure.
