La Grippe is epidemic catarrh.-It
spares no class or nationality. The cul-
tured and the ignorant, the aristocrat
and the pauper. The masses and the
classes are alike subject to la grippe.

The original French term, la grippe,
has been shortened by the busy Amer
lean to read grip" Without intend
ing to do so new word has been
coined that exactly describes the case.

GRIP had clutched US in its fatal clasp.
