Also be careful TO wash hands be-

materials.
The above rules which have been
carried out in other towns have help

by human contact. chiefly thru
coughing, sneezing or splitting. So
avoid persons having colds-whieh
means avoiding crowds-common
drinking cups, roller towels, etc
Keep up your bodily strength by
plenty Of exercise in the open air,
and good food. Above ALL keep free
from colds, as colds irritate the lin.

them much better breeding places

ALWAYS CALL A DOCTOR
mo- OCCASION EoR PANIC

NO OCCASION FOR PANIC
Spanish influenza, which appeared
in Spain in May, has all the appear
ance of grip or la grippe. which has
swept over the world in numerous
|epidemics as far back as history
runs. Hippocrates refers to an cpl
Hdemic in Az B. c. which is regarded
by many to have been influenza. Ev.
cry century has had its attacks. Be-
ginning with 1881, this country has
had five epidemics. the last in 1889
90.
There is no occasion for panic
influenza itself has a very low per
scentage Of fatalities--not over one
death out of every four hundred
cases, according to the N. c. Board
CT Health. The chief danger lies in
complications arising, attacking prin
cipally, patients in run down con-
dition-those who don't 60 to bed
soon enough, or those who get UP
too early.
THE SYMPTOMS
Grippe, OF. influenza as it is now
called, usually begins with a chill
followed by aching, feverishness and
sometime nausea and dizziness, and
"a general feeling Of weakness and
depression. The temperature is from
100 to 1O4 and the fever usually lasts
from three to five days. The germs
attack the mucuous membrane, or
lining of the air passages-nose,
throat and bronchial tubes-there
is usually hard cough. especially
bad at night, often times a sore
throat or tonsilitis, and frequently
all the appearances Of 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 9th.
.ers--take purgatiye, eat plenty OF
nourishing food. remain perfectly
quiet and don't worry. Quinine as
pirin. or Dover's Powder. etc, may
be administered by the physicians
directions to relieve the aching. But
there is no cure or specific for infiu-
enza--the disease must run It's
course. Nature will throw off the at
tack if only you keep up your
strength yourself. The chief danger
lies in the complications which may
arise. Influenza SO weakens the bod
lily resistance that there is danger Of
pneumonia or bronchitis developing,
and sometimes inflammation Of the
middle ear, or heart affections. For
these reasons, it is very important
that the patient remain in bed until
his strength returns-stay in bed al
least two days or more after the rev.
.er has left you, or il you are over
50 or not strong. stay in bed iouf
