Influenza Questions.

Many inquiries have been coming about
the prevailing epidemic This will an
swer some of them. Influenza is merely
another name for grippe. 1t is labelled
Spanish influenza, merely because 1T ap-
pears to have Prevailed in Spain first as
notable epidemic. 1t appears to differ
from the old fashioned grip in being more
yirulent, that is, in having higher de-
gree of contagiousness, and in much
larger percentage of the cases being tol-
lowed by pneumonia than has been usual
in grin epidemics of the last 10 or ID
years. It will undoubtedly sweep west
ward over the whole country as dld the
pandemic of influenza of 1889-189O
No matter how swiftly it appears to
spread, there is no reason to assume tnat
the infection is borne on the wings OF the
wind. There is danger of the transmits
sion through the air for only few feet
from the patient, and it is well recog-
nized fact that the disease is received by
it's new victims only by contact or close
association with the earlier cases. Su-
periptendents of schools, manufacturing
establishments, and the oranges are
asked to emphasize the following points:
/. Influenza is purely an infectious
disease, spread by contact or close asso-
citation.
2. The chances for speedy recovery
from an attack and of escaping pneu-
monia which so often follows are better
if ones health is kept good by means OF
a reasonable degree of exercise, and by
pure air and sunshine But these are
minor factors in helping to-avoid the dis
ease. Example: The more than 40, 600
cases thus far among our robust soldier
boys in our army camps.
3. Contact or close association with
infectious persons is the great danger.
The person with the symptoms of cold
who gets right up into your face when ne
talks, or coughs or sneezes in your d.
rection at short range, is the real danger.
Dodge infection, that is the main thing,
a. With the symptoms of cold or the
grip appearing in a family, the sick one
should have a drinking cup of his own
and have eating utensils by himself.
Scald with boiling water all these things
used by the members of the family after
each meal In schools there is great
danger from common drinking cups.

HARRIET DEAN STEPHENSON.

Harriet Dean, widow of the late Au-
eustus Stephenson of East Belfast, COM
mitted suicide at her home Tuesday by
hanging in the shed chamber. She was
found Wednesday by neighbors who had
missed her. Her home was in perfect
order, her clothing laid out ready for her
burial and note giving directions as to
her wishes, etc. 1t is supposed that III
health had caused a morbid condition OF
mind, as she had frequently remarked
that she dreaded winters and would never
see another. DR.. o. S. Vickery and City
Marshal M. R. Knowlton were called but
reported only a simple case of suicide.
MIS-. Stephenson was beautiful woman
and EMO, ed the respect of all who knew
her. She was about rs years of age. One
brother, Charles E. Dean of Bellows
Falls, VT, survives her. Funeral arrange
ments are not announced at present.
