WITH THE BRITISH ARMIES IN
FRANCE, April 8.-British guns pulverized
the Germans attempt to better their posi-
ton south of Ducquoy on Sunday and tore
such gaps in their lines that they abandoned
their efforts.
The Germans made local attack in Ham
gard wood but the British counter-attacked
and retained most of the wood, capturing.
prisoners and machine guns and inflicting
heavy casualties on the enemy.

SPANISH INFLUENZA
MORE DEADLY
THAN WAR
Said That Epidemic Cost More Lives
Than American Loss in Battle
Danger Not 0ver--Great Care
Necessary to Prevent
Further Outbreak.

The appalling rayages Of Spanish influenza
in this country are perhaps best realized by
the statement recently made, that more deaths
have resulted in little more than month
from this disease than through our whole eigh.
teen months participation in the battles OF
the European war.
Our greatest danger now. declare authori-
ties, is the great American tendency TO forge,
easily and TO believe the peril Is over. Com
petent authorities claim the coming Of cold
weather is very apt to bring return Of this
disease, and there should be no let-up through
cut the winter months Of the following easily
observed precautions. remembering that inilu-
enza Is far easier to prevent than cure.
Influenza is crowd disease. Avoid crowds
as much as possible Influenza germs spread
when ignorant or careless persons sneeze OF
cough without using handkerchief. Cover up
each cough or snceZe. Do not spit on the
floor. sidewalk, in street cars or public places
Avoid the use Of common drinking cups and
roller towels in public places. Breathe some
reliable germicidal and antiseptic air TO de-
stroy the germs that do find Judgement IN
your nose and throat
Remember, no safer precaution against in
luenza could be employed in this manner than
TO get from the nearest drug store a complete
Hyomei Outfit, consisting of a bottle OF the
pure oil OF Hyomei and a little Vest-pocke'
hard rubber inhaling device into which a
few drops Of the oil are poured You should
carry this inhaler about with you during the
day and each half hour or 80 put II in your
mouth and draw deep breaths of its pure
healing, germ-ldllnig air into the passages OF
your nose, throat and lungs.
By destroying germs before they actually
begin work in your blood, you may make
yourself practically immune to infection.
All these suggestions about Spanish influ.
enza are equally true in the prevention OF
colds, catarrh Of nose and throat, bronchiti,
and oven pneumonia Don't become careless
Do your part. Keep the germs away You
may save yourself serious illness and the lose
Of several weeks work.
