most recent outbreak occurred in Spain.
True influenza is caused by germ
discovered in 1892 by Pfeiffer, now
designated as the Pfeiffer bacillus.
Pandemics of intiuenza have been re-
ported since the ninth century; the first
one in 1871 caused from 500 to 600 deaths
daily. The symptoms being that of o
catarrhal nature similar to the present
disturbance. The contagiOn being found
along the path Of commerce was termed
commercial disease.
The most serious pandeinics occurred
in 1880, 1896, lS47, and 1889. Now
after lapse Of % years we are con-
fronted by one Of the greatest pan
denies the world has ever seen.
The cause of the disease, as we have
stated, is due to germ known as the
Pfeiffer bacillus This germ possesses
special tendency to attack the re-
spiratory mucous membranes. For this
reason, we are able TO find the germ in
the sputum and nasal discharges, not
withstanding the fact there are some
physicians who deny the germ theory.
We think their theory is untenable.
The poisons may be carried by arti-
cles Of furniture and clothing, dogs,
cats, etc. Many children have been
known to have contracted acute infec-
tious diseases by playing with dogs.
Principal symptoms of influenza are
chilliness, muscular pains,
prostration, nasal catarrh, acute pha-

and fever ranging from 1Ol to 105 de-
grees \. Tho disease itself 10 not re-
garded % being serious, but 10 very
likely to prove fatal If influential pnen-
monia develops. If no complications
arise, from two to five days are required
before the attack subsidies. There are
other complications such as otitis media,
meningitis and valvular heart disease.
"A number Of persons have called this
Office asking what steps should they
take to prevent having Spanish infiu-
enza. The advice we wish to give for
the prevention Of this disease may be
summed up as follows: Don Il sleep in
closed up bedrooms; don + get your feet
wet; keep yoyur mouth and nose clean
for the influenza germ cannot live long
in places that are clean and sanitary;
don T allow anybody to cough or sneeze
in your face; learn to breathe deeply,
and to do this, practice taking deep
breaths SO as to thoroughly empty the
chest Of all foul air. Some people
breathe SO specifically that certain
chambers in their lungs seldom ever get
a fresh supply Of oxygen. Avoid get
ting chilled and avoid visiting the in
fuenzal sick.
Every day we are called into bed
chambers where fresh air seems to he
at a premium. Judging from the sup
ply, it undoubtedly must be very ex-
pensive.
Influenza is no respector Of persons
1t attacks all classes. A few days ago
we found six cases in one home, ages
ranging from one to thirty-fve years.
Usually men who undergo exposure are
more often victims than women. Should
you be so unfortunate as to become a
victim Of influenza, don't try to stay on
your feet and doctor yourself, but take
your bed and call a physician. These
cases that are treated in time are the
ones that usually yrespond to treat
ment, but the man who tries to go ahead
with his work hoping to work it of is
the one who usually comes down with
influential pneumonia, causing worry
and grief to his family and his physi- |
clan.
We are not surprised to learn that the
local board Of health contemplates clos
ing all public places Of amusement and
also the churches. Usually onr church |

RUSSIAN COOPERATIVE MOVEMENT IS
 THRIVING

There is economic strength in the Russian cooperative movement. The growth of the cooperative societies since the beginning of the war has established them as probably the most stable factor in Russia.
 In addition to their activities in commodity buying and selling, they have built up solid financial struc. ture. The Moscow Nardony Bank, Afounded by them in 1912, has been the only bank off which the bolshevikis have kept their hands. When the bol' sheviki bank nationalizing act was passed, a force of Reds attempted to take possession of the Moscow bank But the cooperative societies pro tested that it was bank of the peo pie and conducted in their interest and could not be taken away from them. As result, the Moscow Mar dony Bank has ct since been inter fered with. Its turnover for the year 1917 was more than 3,00O,000, ,00C rubles.
 The consumers societies, which were among the earliest of the cooper atives, dates back to 1865. But they did not begin to be widespread until 191O Since the start of the war ir 1914. they have lore than doubled in number. The first consumers SO ciety to be organized among industrial workers was founded in 1870, at the Kynov Works, far up in the Ura Mountains. The experiment has since been successfully repeated in many factory centers.
