"Appsndiciiis is the Grip Localized

appendicitis is but locallzation OF the
grip affecting the intestines. and often the
appendix itself; the symptoms OF grip and
appendicitis are coincident."
This statement was made by DR.. Lucas
Championniere. In a paper read yesterday
before the clinic of the Academy OF Med
icine IN Paris.
There Is a seasonable lenten warning In
his assertion that while the grip often at
tacks the throat or ear. yet in the case OF
a patient who has been an excessive eater
of fresh meat. the disease almost invari-
ably l~ocalizes I'm the intestines. near the
appendix. or In the organ itself. producing
acute appendicitis.
The savant omits to say that the great
est danger lies in the unskillfully treated
and imperfectly cured cases.
Prevent the grip and escape appendicitis
by using DIR. Humphreys "Seventy-sev-
en-" the only known preventive and cure
for the grip. while its tonicity sustains
