more uncertain.

epidemic in 412 B. c., which is re-

1891 to 1894, 1909, and 1856.

Alcohol is very bad for people who are

avoidance of exposure to cold and
isolation from those who may be car
riers of virulent pneumococci and
streptococci are measures advisable to
prevent complications. Aspirin or
similar remedies may be used to re-
lieve headache and general pains.
Watch should be kept for complied
lions and cases should not be dis
charged too early.
Crowded offices, and particularly
street cars, are potent factors in the
spread of the disease. In Berlin the
street car conductors showed an ex-
ceptionally high incidence. The avoid
ance of street cars and of crowds,
where possible, is therefore to be
urged during an epidemic, although
the disease is too mild to make it ad-
visable to stop all the activities of
city To prevent the transportation
of the Influenza virus to the we'll and
possible causes of complications to the
sick, masks for sick-room attendants
are advisable. The organism is prob
ably short lived outside the body, and
attention should be directed toward
keeping people apart rather than to-
ward the disinfection of things, aside
from the precautions of general clean
illness. The spread of streptococcus
pneumonia in military camps, and the
fear that with the advent of cool
weather severe pulmonary complica-
lions will follow influential attacks
more frequently than during the past
summer, indicate the urgent need for
the adoption of more stringent pre-
cautions to prevent such complications
than have been customarily taken
hitherto
The most dangerous form of human
contact in the presence of epidemic
influenza is, in all probability, that
with coughers and sneezers. Cough
ing and sneezing, except behind
handkerchief, is as great sanitary
offense as promiscuous splitting, and
should be equally condemned.

Europe this year similar in many re-

cases were occurring on the western
front. In Spain, according to reports,
80 per cent of the population were

starting in northern Europe, also fell
heavily on Spain; the present ruler,
then years old, being one of the first

If You Must Buy

Buy only useful Christmas presents for every
body except children; then buy earlier than ever
before and tell everybody else to do so. There
are " buying days before Christmas. Each one
will be buster than the last. There will be no

second day than there are now. There will be no
more things to buy and no more hours to buy
them in, and no more men to deliver them than
there are today. The merchants have promised
it. And when you buy them carry them home
yourself. Above all buy them earlier.-Indiana

According to Mrs. May Hull, who
lives at 923 Sixth avenue Des Moines,
Iowa, work in her ten-room house is
now like mere play. Few men folks
understand what this means. They
can't realize the many steps woman
takes and the million other things she
does to keep their homes coy and
clean. Only women know the true
meaning of "housework" and the
physical strength it takes to make
them enjoy it.
Perhaps no testimony yet told dem
onstrates the full value of Pepgen any
more than the interesting story Mrs.
Hull tells She says: "Catarrh of the
