Go to Bed and Stay Quiet--Take

Nourishing Food-keep
Up Your Strength,
Nature Is the
"Cure."
ALWAYS CALL A DOCTOR
NO OCCASION FOR PANIC.

Spanish influenza. which appeared In
Spain IN May. has all the appearance
OF grip or la grippe, which has swept
over the world In numerous epidemics
as far back as history runs. Hippo
crates refers to an epidemic in 412
3. c., which Is regarded by many to
have been influenza. Every century
has had its attacks. Beginning with
1881, this country has had five cpl
denies. the last in 18S9-90.
There is no occasion for panic-in-
nuenZa Itself has a very low percent
age OF fatalities-not over one death
out OF every four hundred cases, ac-
cording to the n. c. Board of Health.
The. chief danger lies in complications
arising, attacking principally, patients
in a rundown condition--those who
don't go to bed soon enough or those
who get UP too early.
THE SYMPTOMS.
Grippe, or influenza as it is now
called, usually begins with a chill fol-
lowed by aching, feverishness ami
sometimes nausea and dizziness. and a
general feeling Of weakness and de-
preston. The temperature is from 100
TO lo4' and the fever usually lasts from
three TO five days. The germs attack
the mucous membrane, or lining Of the
air passa ses-nose, throat and bron-
chial tubes-there Is usually hard
cough, especially bad at night, often
times sore throat or tonsiIitis, and
frequently all the appearances of Sc
we're head cold
THE TREATMENTS.
Go to bed at the first symptoms, not
only tor your own sake. but to avoid
spreading the disease to others-take
a purgative. eat plenty OF nourishing
food. remain perfectly quiet and don't
worry. Quinine, aspirin or Doyer's
Powder, etc., may be administered by
the physicians directions to relieve the
aching. But there Is no cure or spe-
cihc for infuenza-the disease must
run its course. Nature will throw OF
the attack IL only YOU keep up your
strength herself. The chief danger

arise. Influenza 50 wea kons tho bodily

and sometimes inflammation OF the
