Influenza !

Because of the great seriousness of
Spanish Infiuen ID throughout the
United States, mary requests have
come to the State BOARD of Hel'th fol
literature on this disease or SUCCESS
lions as to control and treatment.
Not much is known as to this form
of influenza, but it is believed that
there is but little difference in it from
la grippe, which appeared in pandem-
ic form in 1885, All evidence points
to human contact as being the means
of spread, and from the local symp-
toms it has been assumed that the
nose and throat have been the points
of egress of the virus and the points
of incubation. There is NOTHING to
show that the lower animals have any
part in carrying this disease.
PREVENTION.
The most dangerous form of hui
man contact in epidemic influenza is,

APRON SPRINGS THIEF
CAPTURED IN TAMPA

The home of Mrs. S. S. Whitney of
Tarpon Springs was entered Thursday
in the absence of the family and a fine
gold watch and several valuable pieces
of jewelry were stolen.
The police department in Tampa
was asked to take up the case and
Detective L. B. Lennon was assigned
to it. After two days of hard work on
the case Lennon arrested Chester Lo-
gan, whom he found on the street
yesterday, and brought him to the sta
ton. Logan proved to be an old of
fender with considerable record and

There are no reconized drugs as spec

causing great prostration, stimulants
are beneficial. aspirin gives great re-

apt to have fairly good appetite in
this disease. To guard against pneu-

This can be done by having the pat
lent kept in a we'll ventilated room
with uniform temperature, and avoid
sudden changes. Only nurses and
physicians should be allowed in the
sick room. One never knows at the
beginning which case will turn out to
be 9 mild one and which serious one.
In all cases a physician should be call
ed in, and no patent medicines of gen
eral prescriptions, which are advertis-
ed, should be used.

and sneezers. Coughing and sneezinp
except behind the handkerchief, is as
great an unsanitary offense as pro-
miscuous splitting, and should be equ-
ay condemned. Influenza and pneu-
monia are infectious diseases which
are caused by certain germs. The
germs are carried in the matter which
is spit, sneezed or coughed up by sick
persons or sometimes by persons who,
while carrying the disease germs in
their mouths or threats, show no
signs of illness. These germs, even if
they go into the nose or throat, are
usually unable to break thru the mu-
Gus membrane and attack person
who is in good heath. If a person is
not in good health, resistance is low
cred and the germs gain entrance
through some weak spot For the

INCLINED TO BALK
AT $S,OOO,OO0,OOO TAX
Finance Experts Question
Need of Doubling Present
Revenue
Washington. June 8.

Congress is inclined to ak at Sec
rotary McAdoo's demand for $4,000. 000,-
600 in war taxes. This sum, double the
present revenue. is higher by So. 900. 0O0.-
900 than is necessary, some members
declare.
Secretary McAdoo has included in
his estimate of $4,000, 900. 900 for the
years expenditures about Sc, 900, 900. 900
for loans to the Allies said Senator
.Smoot, Senate finance expert, today.
These loans should not be figured in
establishing the sum to be used by taxa
ton on the basis of McAdoo's one-third
tax and two-thirds bond plan.
"The Allied loans are reimbursable in
full to the United States. Therefore. il
they are left out, as they should be. the
total tax needed would be six billion
instead of eight. This would require
the raising of an additional two bill
lion dollars-something fairly easy to ac-,
complish without putting a drain OH
anybody but the war profiteer, who
ought to bear it,"
McAdoo is to be qquizzed on the point
raised by Smoot before either the Ways
and Means Committee or the Senate
Finance Committee accepts his figures as
final.
Tho general belief is tina If McAdoo
can get along with whatever additional
taxes a stiff increase in profits and in
come levies will bring there will be no
difficulty in getting the tax bill through
quickly. But If it becomes necessary
to broaden the field of taxation and in
clude new articles, Il long fight is GER

tinued hearings today.
