THE MPToMs
Grin. or Influenza. as Il Is now
called. usually begins with n chill.
followed by aching. fcverishness and
sometimes nausea and dizziness, and
n general feeling Of weakness and
depression. The temperature is from
100 To l0i, and the fever usually

avoid spreading the disease TO 9TH
ers, take II purgativc, eat plenty of
nourishing food, remain perfectly
quiet and don't worry. Quininc,

may be administered by the physi-

cific for influenza-the disease must
run its course. Nature herself viii

danger lies In the complications

times inflammation of the middle

reasons IL is very important that the

to give up the case. She finally re-
tanned her present lawyer. and that is
why the case is only now coming before
the court.
When the manager of the Hotel Bilt-
more was asked for his opinion Of Mrs
Gifford's suit, he smiled with amiable
cynicism and said:
I'VE have inquired carefully and we can
not find that the facts are as stated by Mrs.
Clifford. Our elevator boy did not notice
any such conduct as she describes. In
fact, he thought she and the men we're
members of the same party. Our tele-
phone operator, a very estimable young
woman, did not notice any such behavior
as she mentions, and | think she could
hardly have helped noticing 1t.
Even II the facts were as alleged by
Mrs. clifford, we are advised that she could
not make us responsible for them. There
are certain laws and rules requiring hotel

house detectives ready to spring to the
assistance Of any person in distress. It is
their first duty to be on hand when needed
in all public rooms"
Mrs. Gifford's suit for damages was set
down for hearing before Judge Lehman
in the New York Supreme Court. Hartford
T. Marshall, prominent lawyer, appeared
for Mrs. Clifford. John McKim Minton,
formerly Assistant District Attorney, rep
resented the hotel. The defendants law
yer asked the Judge to dismiss the com
plant on the ground that 1t did not show a
proper cause of action.
Even If the original complaint does not
stand, 1t is stated that there are several
ways Of changing 1t and bringing the case
to trial
We may, therefore, hear the whole sub
ject Of hotels responsibility for the
moral conduct Of its guests explained and
illustrated in a highly instructive manner.

'T have reason to believe" she says,
that the hotel people know perfectly we'll
who the men were. What | wished was
to punish the one who insulted me, but If
the hotel will not find him l must hold the
hotel responsible"
She added that the two men were we'll

one who assaulted her was short and thick
set and wore a check suit. The other was
taller and wore blue suit She expresses
her conviction that they we're wealthy men
