NO OCCASION FOR PANIC

Spanish influenza, which appeared in
Spain in May, has all the appearances
Of grip, or la grippe, which has sWep.
over the world in numerous epidemics
as far back as history runs. Hippoc-
rates refers to an epidemic in 412
3. c., which is regarded by many to
have been influenza. Every century
has had it's attacks. Beginning with
1881 this country has had five epidem-
les, the last in 1889-9O.
There is no occasion for panic-inf1u-
enza itself has very low percentage
OF fatalities-not over one death out
Of every 400 cases, according to the
N. c. board of health. The chief danger
lies in complications arising, attack
ing principally patients in rundown
condition-those who don't go to bed
soon enough or those who get up too
early.
THE SYMPTOMS
Grip, or influenza, as it is now called,
Usually begins with chill followed by
aching, feverishness, and sometimes
niusea and dizziness, and a general
feeling of weakness and depression.
The temperature is from 100 to 1O4,
and the fever usually lasts from three
to five days. The germs attack the
mucous membrane or lining of the air
passages, nose, throat and bronchial
tubes: there is usually hard cough,
especially bad at night; oftentimes a
sore throat or tonsillitis, and frequently
all the appearances of severe head
cold.
THE TREATMENT
Go to bed at the first symptoms, not
only for your own sake, but to avoid
spreading the disease to others-take
Il purgative, eat plenty of nourishing
food, remain perfectly quiet and don't
worry. Quinine, aspirin or D0ver'S
Powders, ETC., may be administered by
the physicians directions to relieve the
aching. But there is no cure or spe-
cific for influenza--the disease must
run it's course Nature herself will
throw off the attack if only you keep
up your strength. The chief danger
lies in the complications which may
arise. Influenza so weakens the bodily
resistance that there is danger of pneu-
Hienia or bronchitis developing, and
sometimes inflammation of the middle
ear, or heart affections. For these rea-
sons it is very important that the
patient remain in bed until his strength
returns-stay in bed at least two days
or more after the fever has left you, or
If you are over so or not strong stay
In bed four days or more, according to
the severity of the attack.

lis Acid Stomach
] hat Makes Millions
Sick and Suffer

Life is dark-not worth much to the
man or woman with an acid-stomach
Acid-stomach kills Hope, Ambition.
Energy, Courage. 1t saps the strength of

blood-causes untold suffering-makes
millions weak, unfit and brings on pre-
mature old age.
You know what acid-mouth does to

the teeth to decay. Just imagine, then,
what havoc an acid stomach must do to

other, from superacidity or acid-stomach.
They don't seem dangerously sick.
Just ailing. Going through life weak,
listless, dragging one foot after another.
They're nervous and irritable; lack power
and punch, frequently have severe at
tacks of binding, splitting headaches;
subject to fits of melancholia and mental
depression. And nearly always their
stomachs are out of order, even thou, b
many experience no actual stomach pains
digestion poor-never getting anywhere
near the full strength from their food.
So, you see, it's just this--acid-stom
ach-that is holding so many people back

get from their food-taking away their
vigor and notwithstanding them weak

Get rid of the excess acid. That's
the secret of good health and is the only
way to obtain good digestion and assirn-
1lation. 1t is the right way to be well and
keep strong. Ordinary tonics won't do
any lasting good. The best they can do
Z is to spur up your appetite. When the
stimulating effects wear off, you are
worse off than ever.
A modern remedy makes it possible
to remove excess acid without the slight
est discomfort. 1t is called EATONIC,
In the form Of pleasant tasting tablets.
Their action in the stomach is a good
deal like piece of blotting paper taking
up drop of ink-they literally absorb
the Injurious excess acid and carry it
away through the intestines.
Begin using EATONIC right now--to-
day-and get on the road to bounding,
vigorous, vibrant health. Thousands upon
thousands of people who have used
EATONIC are enthusiastic in its praise.
They say they never dreamed that any
thing could bring them such quick relief.
