Prevalence of Spanish influenza in
Washington has meant that some
thing must be done toward feeding
those confined to their rooms with no
one to care for them, says the food
administration. The experimental
kitchen of the United States Food
Administration has promptly gone
about this work, sending out guam
titles of soup, custards. milk and
crackers every day.
1.-The foregoing" says an announce
ment of the administration, ARE just
such foods as one should eat during
the first stages of a cold. The fact
that colds may turn into something
worse, especially during such an cpl
demic as the present. should be suf-
ficient warning to any one to call a
doctor at once and be careful to eat
properly, that the cold may be quick
ly thrown off
