Not Necessary to Summon Doc
tor in Mild Cases Of Span
ish Influenza.
REST IN BED IS IMPORTANT
Acute Shortage Of Medical and Nurs'
4 ina Service Makes 1t Imperative
That People Learn Something
of Care of Sick.

Washington.-In an effort to reduce
unnecessary calls on the over-workeu
physicians throughout the country pc
cause of the present epidemic OF IN
fiuenza, Surgeon General Blue OF the
United States public health service
calls upon the people Of the country 10
learn something about the home care
of patients i'll with influenza. Phy-
sicians everywhere have complained
about the large number OF unnecessary
calls they have had to make because
of the inability of many people TO as
tinguish between the cases requiring
EXPERT medical care and those when
could readily be cared for without
physician. With influenza continuing
to spread in many parts OF the coun-
try, and with an acute shortage OF doc-
TORS and nurses everywhere, every I'M
necessary call on either physicians or
nurses makes 1t so much harder 10
meet the urgent needs Of the patients
who are seriously i'll.
Present Generation Spoiled.
"The present generation" said the
surgeon general, 'has been spoiled by
having had expert medical and nursing
care readily available. 1t was not so
in the days Of our grandmothers, When
every good housewife was expected to
know a good deal about the care OF the
sick.
"Eyery person who feels sick and
appears to be developing an attack
of influenza should at once be put to
bed in a well-ventilated room. II his
bowels have moved regularly, it is not
necessary to give a physic; where
physic is needed, a dose of castor oil
or Rochelle salts should be given.
"The room should be cleared OF all
unnecessary furniture, bric-a-brac, and
rugs. A wash basin, pitcher, and slop
bowl, soap and towel should be at
hand, preferably in the room or just
outside the door.
IF the patient is feverish a doctor
should be called, and this should DE
done in any case if the patient appears
very sick, or coughs up pinkish (blood-
stained) sputum, or breathes rapidly
and painfully.
"Most of the patients cough up con-
siderable mucus; in some, there Is
much mucus discharged from the nose
and throat. This material should not
be collected in handkerchiefs, but
rather in bits of old rags, or toilet pa
per, or on paper napkins. AS soon az
used, these rags or papers should DO
placed in a paper bag kept beside the
bed. Pocket handkerchiefs are out OF
place In the sick room and should not
be used by patients. The rags or pa
pers in the paper bag should be burned
"The patients will not be hungry,
and the diet should therefore be light
Milk, a soft-boiled egg, some toast or
crackers, a bit of jelly or jam, steWeo
fruit, some cooked cereal like oatmeal,
hominy or rice-these will suffice III
most cases.
Comfort of Patient.

Brooklynites See Airplane
Make Thrilling Landing

New York.-The engine of a coast
guard aeroplane went dead above a
densely-populated section of Brook
lyn, but its two occupants succeed
ed in effecting landing in a vacant
lot in Fifth street, between Fourth
and Fifth avenues. Lieutenant Lo-
rene Caskey, the observer. sustained
fracture of the jaw and was taken
to the Methodist Episcopal Hospital.
The pilot, Lieutenant Donald Hin
man, escaped injury. They are sta
toned at Garden City.
We got lost in a fog and felt our
way along until we got inland a bit
and discovered where we were"
said Lieutenant Hinman.
Then our machine went dead. We
circled around for a while and
looked for a good place to land.
Some time later we noticed this
field"
The lot chosen was not a large
one and at times as the plane
swooped downward Il seemed to the
throngs watching as though it must
strike dwelling in the vicinity.
II was $50 when the landing was
made. The police were notified and
formed Gordon about the lot, soon
being relieved by soldiers. Lieuten-
ant Hinman remained with the aero
plane and made report of the ac-
cident to officers who arrived by
snotorcar.
