(By DR.. Franklin Duane)

(By DR.. Franklin Duane)
Many people have been frightened
by what they have read or heard OF
influenza. The more you fear the
disease, the surer YOU are to get it
Go right about your business and
forget it. AS the disease is spread
principally by contact thru sneezing, |
coughing or splitting, many health
authorities have advised that every
one wear a gauze, which is daily
washed and saturated with one
to five hundred solution of zinc sui
phate in water, and then dried be-
fore wearing over the nose and
mouth. You should avoid crowds
common drinking cups and public
towels. Keep your strength up by
taking lots of exercise in the open
air and plenty of nourishing food.
If you have any of such symptoms
as chilliness, nasal distractions,
flushed face, headache, feverishness,
restlessness, weakness. or irritat-
ing cough give up work at once and
go to bed. This will save your
strength to help overcome the dis
ease. Put your feet in hot water for
fifteen minutes Thoroughly loosen
the bowels with some such mild and
non-irritating physics as Dr. Pierces
Pleasant Pellets. Drink principally
of hot lemonade and then cover up
with plenty of clothes in bed so as
to get a good sweat. When sweat
ing is free and the fever reduced
take dose of two Anuric Tablets
every four hours, followed by drink
ing at least a glass or two Of hot
water Anuric Tablets help quickly
to relieve the soreness of the mus
cles and bones from which most pa
tients complain and help the kid
neys flush out the poisons
TO relieve nasal distractions and
excessive discharge from the nose,
probably nothing is better than such
a mild, soothing, antiseptic wash as
DR.. Sages Catarrh Remedy. 1t will
give great relief Employed as a
gargle, in same strength as made up
for use in the nose, and as hot as can
be borne, it quickly arrests soreness
and dryness' in the throat
Influenza weakens the patients re-
sistance to disease, so that there is
danger of bronchitis and pneumonia
developing To combat this tenden-
cy and fortify the patients strength
insist that he keep in bed at least
two days. Probably nothing will at
this stage hasten the recovery and
strengthen the patient more than an
irontonic tablet called "Irontic" or
that well Known herbal tonic. DR..

glimmer from one pilot lamp. The
effect Of the salt water on the cleo
trio batteries was to generate chlor-
inc gas, and the air was becoming
oyerpowering. The water had short
circuited the electric current so that
practically everything he touched
gave him shock Moreover the
room was oppressively hot
He tried to think of means of
t cape and conceived the idea of open
ing the hatch and floating to the sur
face, bat on trying to open the hatch
he found that the tremendous pres
sure of the water outside prevented
his moving it, He had always ac-
cepted the theory that the pressure
inside a sunken air-locked vessel
could be greater than the pressure
outside So to increase the pressure
inside he opened a valve and admit
ted more water When he considered
the pressure was sufficient to blow
him out he opened the hatch. but it
instantly closed to again as he had in
sufficient pressure. With his should
er and extending all his strength, he
lifted the hatch. but again, with the
weight of the water, it slammed to.
crushing his fingers. With difficulty
he released them, and once more
opened the valve and admitted water
until the engine room was flooded
right up to the coaming of the hatch.
The air in this confined space was un-
der tremendous pressure, greater
than that of the water outside, so he
was able to open the hatch and rise
rapidly to the surface, where he was
picked up by a destroyer.
