IMPORTANT HEALTH DIRECTIONS

The epidemic OF Influenza which
is sweeping the colntry has such a
start that II is almost sure 10 visit
every town and city. Because OF
the war both doctors and nurses are
50 scarce that neither will be avail
able in many communities. While
this disease is fatal in some cases
It should not cause a panic for in
proportion to the number Of cases
the deaths are very few. The prin-
cipal danger comes from neglect.
The directions given below are in
tended TO be Of help TO those who
are So far from a doctor that they
will have to care for themselves.
To prevent the spread of the dis
ease there should be a quarantine
Of all homes where the disease is
present. There should be no visit
ing " those sick and the people
should avoid all gatherings such as
schools and meetings Of all kinds.
The homes should be we'll ventila-
ted.
The disease starts like a very Sc
we're cold with pain in the head.
back Of the eyes and down the back.
There is usually bone ache and
chilly sensation as one has with an
ordinary cold. In severe cases there
is redncss Of the face: the pain may
be severe and nausea and vomiting
may be present. Now if one is taken
with these symptoms when the dis
ease is present in the community
and a doctor cannot be had he
should treat himself as follows:
Go TO bed on the first sign Of
symptoms and do one of three
things. Start taking one Warburgs
tablet every hour for eight doses, or
If your druggist does not have these
take a hot lemonade or other hot
drink. Open the bowels thoroughly
with salts or oil.
If the pain issevere take 5 grains
Of aspirin every two hours. The
diet should be soft or liquid, but
and water should be
drunk freely. a glass taken every
hour with the medicine. The great
danger is from exposure by getting
uncovered while sweating or by
up for the toilet without
being we'll wrapped up.
To avoid a relapse, which il IL
comes may lead to pneumonia and |
death, il is necessary TO stay in bed
for - hours after the temperature !
is normal. IF the temperature goes |
mp again the 70 hours must start |
from the last rise. After getting up
one must be extremely careful TO |
avoid exposure TO drafts, wet clothes |
and wet feet. A relapse is always |
due 10 some carelessness in these /
and inasmuch as the pneu-
monia following this disease is very
fatal ii is worth while 90 take every
precaution to avoid it, The great |
number Of deaths in the army camps
Is largely due TO the fact that the
boys do not report to the doctor till
hey are SO sick that they can't keep

get out they take too many chances

The main attack, it is added seems 10
be iii the Champagne.
The German attack began in the
region of Vaux after bombardment
with gas and high explosive shells, ac-
cording to the Exchange Telegraph

bombardment in the region of Jaul-
gonne, on the Marne
The feeling in London on the situa-
tion is that the developments are quite

The immediate objective of the Ger

is to detach Rheims by attacking on
both sides of it and capturing the
