Influenza. What to Do.

To be prepared for the serious out
breaks Of Influenza and Pneumonia
that are now sweeping over the entire
country and that have seized on this
community Public Health Boards
everywhere are issuing cautions and
instructions to the public not to neg
lect treatment at the hrst symptoms
OF q cold and to cooperate with health
boards and physicians in stamping out
the spread Of the disease
No disease develops so quickly or
spreads so rapidly. The hrst symptom
usually 10 a sharp rise in temperature
to lo3 or 104 degrees, headache, pain
n the back, throat feeling dry or sore.
Mess promptly checked by proper
treatment, the best plan Is to 80 to
bed and stay there for at least 8 week.
keeping warm 10 avoid pneumonia and
ct the minor ailfnent run its course
hd also prevent the spread Of the dis
ease to others.
Most OF us, in these busy days, can
not afford, II il can be avoided, to lose
q week or more OF work. 30 II Is all the
more necessary that At the very nrst
sign OF grip or tnhuenza q counter
acting trestment should be taken.
Probably no batter or more effective
treatment could be followed at such q
time than to get from O'Donnelrs
Drug Store a complete Hyon1ei outfit,
Consisting OF a bottle of the pure oil
Of Hyomei and a little vestpocket,
hard rubber inhaling device into which
a few drops Of the oil are poured
Put the Inhaler in your mouth and
breathe its air deep into the passages
of your nose, throat and lungs Every
particle OF air that enters your breath
ing organs will thus be charged with
an antiseptic healing balsam-
You can't do this too often. The Hy-
omei Inhaler Is small and can be con-
Veniently carried in q handbag or in
your vestpocket- Every half hour or
80 throughout the day take II out and
draw q few breaths Of its pure healing
air into your nose and throat The
outfit is not at all expensive, for the
rubber inhaler will last a lifetime,
while the Oil OF Hyomei can be OBJ
tained at little cost from any reliable
druggist Lots Of people already have
q Hyomei Inhaler. Take ii out, charge
it and use Il without delay. II you
haven't one get II today.
A few cents spent now may easily
prevent serious illness and save you
many dollars and help stamp out the
spread Of the disease.

Scarcely had we crossed tho heights
when some shells burst behind US. The
French artillery even singled out indi-
vldunls. While vauquois was in their
possession they could coordinate the
entire neighb0rhOod. We understood
now why this ash heap had been con-
tested for 30 bitterly.
We raj down hill till we came TO
varennes. The southern section of the
town had been wrecked by shells and
fire. Many chlmneys were all that was
left standing OF whole rows Of
houses. Soldiers everywhere collected
scraps Of metal which were transport.

loaded on wagons and sent away. All
the copper. tin. brass and nickel which
could be found was gathered.
The next morning we went into the
trenches. We had to reach posi-
ton before d~aybreak. for with daylight
the French kept all the approaches un-
der fire. There was not much OF a
trench In vauquols. All that could he
seen was a single stone pile. Literally.
there was not, In this town. one stone
left upon another. The ruins OF this
village had changed hands more
than fifteen times. When we arrived
one-half OF vauquols was IN German
hands. The French were In possession
OF the highest points from which they
could overlook the country for many
miles.
In default Of a trench we sought
owe behind the stones. for II was I'm.
possible to dig trenches here, as the mr..
tillery leveled everything. The soldiers
concealed themselves behind stone
walls and fred. Artillery OF all cali.

destruction lay an army Of corpses,
mostly German.

There are those who aver that on

cave jewellers OF southern Europe have
been found inscribed characters rep
