swept over the world in numerous sp-

to have been Influenza Every century
has had its attacks Beginning with
1881. this country has had five cpl

There is no occasion for panic-in-
fluenza itself has q very low percent

called, usually begins with a chill, fol-
lowed by aching feverishness and
sometimes nausea and dizziness. and a
general feeling OF weakness and de-
preston The temperature is from Zoe
to 104, and the fever usually lasts from
three TO five DAYS The germs attack

worry Quinine, Aspirin or Dovers
Powder. etc. may be administered by
the physicians directions TO relieve
the aching. But there is no cure or
specific for influenza-the disease
must run its course. Nature herself
