DRINKING If YOU
DON'T FEEL RIGHT
Says gIass Of hot water with
phosphate before breakfast
washes out poisons.

II you wake up with a bad taste,
bad breath and tongue is coated; if
your head is dull or aching; If what
you eat sours and forms gas and acid
in stomach, or you are bilious, consti-
pated, nervous, sallow and can't get
feeling just right, begin inside bath
ing. Lrink before breakfast, a glass
of real hot water with teaspoonful
of limestone phosphate in it. This
will flush the poisons and toxins from
stomach, liver. kidneys and bowels
and cleanse, sweeten and purify the
entire alimentary tract. Do your in
side bathing Immediately upon aris-
ing in the morning to wash out of the
system all the previous days poison
Gus waste, gases and sour bile before
putting more food into the stomach.
To feel like young folks feel: like
you felt before your blood. nerves and
muscles became loaded with body i'm
purities. get from your pharmacist a
quarter pound of limestone phosphate
which Is inexpensive and almost taste
less, except for sourish twinge which
is not unpleasant.
Men and women who are usually
constipated, bilious, headachy or have
any stomach disorder should begir

COLD WEATHER
RENTS SCOURGE
OF Influenza

Spanish influenza has apparently
lost it's foothold in Bridgeport. Only
So new cases were reported to the
health authorities for the "a hours
ending at o'clock this morning
This brings the total number of peo-
pie affected by the malady since its
advent in this city to 5,827. Ten
additional deaths occurred, bringing
the total to 1874. The death rate up
until 9 o'clock this morning was
slightly over six and three-quarters
per cent.
The steady decline in the epidemic
together with today's clear weather,
led Health Officer DR.. Walter H.
Brown to say that he was now thor
oughly confident that there would not
be a further outbreak in the present
epidemic.
"Of course" said DR. Brown, I'VE
may have another epidemic before
the winter is over, and while I am not
yet ready to hang out the all clear
sign, 1 believe the present one is en-
tirely under control"
The health officer said today that

be most careful iii how they return
to their normal way of living. He
said that they must not jump out of
bed and start right in to work as Il
nothing had happened. They should
be very careful not to exert them
selves, careful of their dress and of
their diet, for at least a month after i
doctor has allowed them to leave a
bed or after they have returned from
a hospital.
The Visiting Nurses Association,
Department of Charities, Red Cross
and Health Department are all CO.
operating in the care of people now
convalescing. The Red Cross will,
maintain its canteen service for some
time, and those recovering from the
malady can make use of this and the
visiting nurses on application.

The COURT
THAT CROSS SPIT
into her FACE

Judge John R. Booth and a jury are
today hearing evidence in the action
brought by Mrs. Rebecca Framson,
of 1863 Central avenue, against Harry
Gross of 692 Shelton street, in which
she claims $3.50 for an alleged assault
committed October IS, 1917, at 692
Shelton street. Mrs. Framsonl alleges
that Gross made threats to her and
finally expectorated in her face. She
says she suffered a severe nervous
shock as a result of his actions.
Mrs. Framson- told the court she
was in the kitchen when Gross enter
ed the house, and he came and knock
ed at the door, demanding the key of
the tenement. Mrs. Framson refused
to give it to him and she alleges he
used vile language to her, threatened
to knock her head off, and finally ex-
perforated in her face.
Gross on the other hand, denies
there was any assault or any threats
and that the alleged action never &C.
CURED.
OF the % jurors summoned for the
court more than one-half asked to be
excused for various reasons, and when
the case was called for trial there were
just u jurors left in the court room.

I believe that the use of whisky and
milk with an egg is a good stimu-
liant"
Colonel Mccormack declared tina
since October l only so cases of in
Huenza had been reported in the can
Torment. This, he said, was proof
that the disease had passed it's cpl
7eemical stage at Camp Devens. He
said that there were many still con-
fined to their beds. but with the ad-
vent of better autumn weather, these
patients would be soon able to gel
out.
DR. Tanning Relies On Whisky.
DR.. Arthur Tanning, 3SS Prairie
avenue, Providence, said to The Prov
idence News:
Il am using whisky quite extensive
ly in all my cases. I have IS under
treatment now and I will be going
every minute until midnight.
My own experience with this cpl.
demic is that people need stimulation
that they can get from liquor. 1t i!
food for old people. OF course, i
can be overdone. In my case 1 hav'
not habitually used whisky, but at tn,

1T counteracts the poison of the

hear that army doctors are usins

MA The shortage of masks prescribed
by physicians is noticeable in Paw
tucket drug stores. I believe that all
pharmacists should get a supply of
masks, as there are many families in
PaWtucket in which several persons
are suffering at the same time"
Dr. John P. Hussey, when asked
by Providence News representative
regarding the uses of whiskey as A
stlmulant in the sickness and partic-
nlariy in the present epidemic of
Spanish influenza, said that while he
had not prescribed it, he found that
it is being used freely in many house
holds where patients are i'll with the
disease.
Il was surprised at seeing the
whisky being used in many of the
houses to which 1 called. In manv OF
the cases to which 1 have been called
find that the patient has waited un-
til almost the last moment before A
| physician is called in. The majority
| of deaths resulting thus far from this
| vlrulent disease can be assigned TO
negligence on the part of the victims.
I'm treating cases 1 have found the
use of argyrol to be very successful.
| This is powerful silver solution
which, when sprayed into the nostrils
of the sufferer, at once kills all infec-
| ton.
This influenza germ, if caught be-
fore it finds its way into the chest,
can be destroyed. Once in the chest
pneumonia quickly develops and in
most cases death follows The germ
contains a larger amount of poison
than the usual disease germ and it
! finds it way into the system through
the nostrils, destroying tissues as it
wends it's way into the chest.
| MY advice to people who think
they are suffering with influenza is to
call physician; don't ait; and don't
get up out of bed too S. on
