ORIGIN OF THE DISEASE.


Spanish Influenza. which appeared
in Spain in May, has swept over the
world in numerous epidemics as far
back as history runs. Hippocrates re
fers to an epidemic in 412 B. c., which
is regarded by many to have been in
fluenza. Every century has had its
attacks. Beginning with 1881. this
country has had five epidemics. the
last in 18S9-9O.
THE SYMPTOMS.
Grip, or influenza as it is nov
called, usually begins with a chill
followed by aching. feverishness and
sometimes nausea and dizziness, and q
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 bronchiel tubes-there is usually
a hard cough, especially bad at night
tits. and frequently all the appearances
of severe head cold.
THE TREATMENT
Go to bed at the first symptoms
take a purgative. eat plenty OF nour.
fishing food. remain perfectly quiet
and don't worry Nature herself Is
the only "cure" for influenza and will
throw off the attack if only you con-
serve your strength. A little Quinine,
Asperin or Dover's Powder may be
given by the physicians directions to
allay the aching. Always call doc
tor. since the chief danger OF grip
Is in it's weakening effect on the sys-
tenn, which allows complications to
develop. These are chiefly pneu-
monia and bronchitis. sometimes in
Illumination Of the middle ear. or heart
affections. For these reasons, 1t is
very important that the patient re-
main in bed until his strength returns
stay in bed at least two days or
more after the fever has left you, or
if you are over so or not strong, stay
in bed four days or more, according
to the severity Of the attack.
EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS.
In order to st mulate the lining of
the air passages to throw off the grip
germs, to aid in loosening the phlegm
and keeping the air passages open,
thus making the breathing easier,
Vick's VapoRub will be found effect
i've. Hot, wet towels should be ap-
piled over the throat, chest and back
between the shoulder blades to open
the pores. Then Vapo Rub should be
rubbed in over the parts until the
skin is red, spread on thickly and
covered with two thicknesses of hot
flannel cloths. Leave the clothing

.LATAH COUNTY
SHOULD HAVE
SERVICE FLAG
JUDGE MORGAN OFFERS SOME
TIMELY SUGGESTIONS ON

MOUNATIN HOME AND SAYS,
$40 LIKEWISEo

The following very interesting let
ter from Judge Morgan to Mrs. Chas.
Shields of Moscow is of special in
terest at this time when the chamber
of commerce is debating as to whether
or not Latah county should have a
service flag for it's soldiers who have
gone to the front The letter follows:
: Mrs. Charles w. Shields,
Moscow, Idaho;
Dear Friend: | am writing you this
letter, because you are public-spirited
and energetic sand efficient in COM
munity matters.
Last Sunday night it was my good
fortune to attend meeting in Noun
tain Home at which community serV-
ice flag was unveiled bearing a star
for each citizen of Gilmore county now
in the military or naval service OF the
United States. Upon this flag are l43
blue stars, representing men who are
still living, and gold star, represent
ing a soldier who has given his life
for his country. From time to time,
as men are called upon the make the
principal sacrifice, the stars Will
change from blue to gold. This Tag
was unveiled in the presence OF large
audience, at an appropriate time in the
proceedings, by drawing from in front
of it two American flags. l believe it
was the most impressive ceremony l
have ever witnessed.
1t is the purpose of the people of Ell
more county to add stars to the nag,
representing those who will be called
to the colors, as they are called; also
to make a map, or chart, of it which
will be SO arranged that each star Will
definitely represent a soldier or sail
or, and such important facts as his
name, the character of his service,
date of his enlistment and date of his
death, should he die in the service,
will be placed in the position on the
chart that his star occupies on the
flag. When the war is over the flag
and chart will be framed and placed
In the court house to be kept in the
nature Of a public record.
The people of Gilmore county also
intend to erect in Mountain Home,
probably in the school house grounds,
a temporary monument of honr, which
will ha hujIt of wood TJpOn this
monument will be painted the names
of the men who have joined the colors
from that county 1t is proposed that
red, white and blue flowers, in ap-
propriate designs, be kept growing
about this monument until the boys
come home. Pictures of 1t will be ta-

butcher and most depraved monarchy the world has
yet produced. Their and tempers at high

1t would take but spark to start confagraton
with the temper of the American people aroused If
there are sympathzers with the German living
in America at this time the very safest thing for them
do is to commit to memory the seven words of adj
vice given by the United States attorney general and
to obey religously These people may not be able

tongues In other words, Don't think out loud if

Such matters have wonderful tend

sentiment at home, and when the boys
at the front find out they are not
forgotten, but that the home folks
are constantly watching them and
keeping them in grateful recollection,
it will, undoubtedly, tend to bring
about the best possible results from
them Certainly it is hard to appre-
ciate that man would rather have
the fact recorded on the chart, hang
ing next to the service flag in the old
court house, that he fell in battle with
his face to the foe than to have it re-
corded that he deserted, or was shot
for treason. Whether you can .ap-
preciate it or not, we men folks can,
there is nothing in the world makes a
man fight so well as to realize that he
is being watched by his own women
folks.

will put on foot, and bring to sue

as has been undertaken in Elmore
