Spanish Influenza, which appeared

swept over the world in numerous cpl
denies as far back as history runs.
Hippocrates refers to an epidemic In
412 B. C. which is regarded by many
to have been influenza Every CEN
tury has had its attacks. Beginning
with 1881. this country has had five
epdemics, the last in 1SS9-9O
THE SYMPTOMS
Grip, or influenza. as It is now
called usually begins with n chill fol-
lowed by aching, feverishness and
sometimes nausea and dizziness. and
general feeling of weakness and de-
preston. The temperature is from
100 to 104, and the fever usually lasts
from three to five days. The germs
attack the mucous membrane, or lin
ing of the air passages-nose, throat
and bronchial tubes-there is usually !
hard cough. especially bad at night, !
often times a sore throat or tonsiltis. /
and frequently all the appearances of
a severe head cold.
THE TREATMENT
Go TO bed at the first symptoms, not
only for your own sake but to avoid
spreading the disease to others-take
a purgative. eat plenty OF nourishins
food, remain perfectly quiet and don't ;
worry. Quinine. Aspirin or Dover's 1
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, but nature her !

REV. cUHSE breaches IN
PALiSADE SUNDAY MORNING.

Rev. Guhse, who has been delighting
Palisade congregations with some
really remarkable sermons for the
past few Sundays, will again fill the
pulpit next Sunday. He is regarded
as a most promising young minister,
and certainly he has held his Palisade
congregations as few have done since
the church was opened. He is full of
the spirit of the day, as well as inn
bued with the deepest sense of re-
ligious thought and sentiment. He is
broad in view, fearless i'm expression,
never, however, taking sides with any
form of faddism, and his language per-
mits of no false or doubtful interpre-
tation. Not posing as an oracle, he
has been of the greatest help to those
who have been regular attendants
since he began to preach in Palisade.
He breaches religion of feeling, re-
ligion of thought, religion of truth.
with no reflections into realms of the
unknown or mystical reaches. AS a
church member said this week,
preachers are supposed to make peo-
pie better. If that man cannot make
one feel like being better, I never
heard anyone who could. 1t is a treat
to hear his earnest pleas"

Prophet O. Briefly.

Orrin Brieby's play is complete in
this number of The Palisadian, and,
as it was written before the war end
ed, it is interesting to see the fulfill
ment of the plot in the actual events
that occurred. The Belgians are now
back in their land, honored and re-
spected by the entire world, even the
Huns themselves. See what it is for a
nation to keep it's honor. 1t suffered a
tragic fate, but, like Job, its reward
will be doubled and it's name revered
forever. And the dastardly Hun stands
blasted in the sight of all men, with
the aspect of Satan on his face and
his very existence reprOach to him.
self. All his agents and sympathizers
are under blight in this country and
are shamefully trying to convince the
American people that they have al
ways been patriotic, while all their
neighbors see through the camoufiage.

Why Should We Lag Behind?

We are faced with the greatest OPP
portunities to bring in reforms in the
governmental methods of all countries
of the globe. But what will we do with
these opportunities? Shall we infiiet
on these new nations struggling for
liberty and Justice the slavery and in
justice that have grown up in the
United States in the names Of liberty
and justice? Do we want the slums
of New York reproduced in other coun-
tries? Great Britain at least has
awakened to these problems and has
commenced the work Of destroying the
worst housing evils and erecting in
their places sanitary dwellings for the
poor. Great Britain has enacted laws
to break up great estates and to in
duce the town dweller to return to
country life. Why should we lag be-
hind every other country?

Oh, Release the Land!

Already the fear of unemployment
casts its shadow over the whole coun-
try. Must we discharge workers so
as to find employment for our released
soldiers? What do workers produce?
Wealth, of course. That is food, cloth
ing and buildings. All the people of
Europe are in want of these three Ia
Dor products and are crying out in
distress for them and yet we say, How
can we employ our soldiers, who are
themselves deeply anxious for employ
ment? Release the land and you will
answer that question Immediately.
Tax labor products and they become
scarce. Tax land and it becomes
abundant. Ask real estate owners
what they will do with their land if
you take it's annual value for public
purposes and see what they reply.

No less than So bishops and other

These protests have been forwarded
to the archbishops of Canterbury and

individuals actually thought that the
Turkish government was substantial

brethren, do you not know that muir
derers' club is far more worthy of a

fact, there is no difference between
