Suggestions About InfIuenzs.

Reprinted from State Board of Health
circular letter.
Every one seems to think he will have
influenza. Every one wants to know how it
begins.
1t is really not probable that every one
will be attacked by the disease and it is not
possible to give much Information as to how
1t begins or how to keep away from it.
Usually it starts just as bad cold does.
General aching. headache, backache. often
a chill There IL fever in some cases, and
frequently teh temperature runs high. A
great many cases of influenza show no fur
ther symptoms than those of an ordinary
cold.
Any one who feels chilly, fevcrish, ''achy''
should 20 home and go to bed.
The suggestions most helpful are:
Don't worry about catching" anything.
Keep your feet dry and warm and your
head cool.
If you need Il laxative. take it.
Don't over-eat.
Sleep nine hours. In IL room by your
self, if you can.
II you sleep in Il room with others. tie a
handkerchief over your nose and mouth.
Relieve the street car by walking to work,
even if it is three miles.
Don't cough or sneeze ut anybody.
When you cxpectorate, spit in IL paper
and burn it.
Influenza is very communicable and the
best preventive measure is to keep the body
in good condition.
