What should be done by those VINO
catch the disease?
ut is very important that every per-
son who becomes sick with influenza
should go home at once and go TO bed.
This will help keep away dangerous
complications and will. at the same
time, keep the patient from scattering
the disease FAR and wide. 1t is highly
desirable that no one be allowed 20
sleep in the same room with the pa
tIent. In fact, no one but the nurse
should be allowed in the room.
"If there is cough and sputum or
running of the eyes and nose, care
should be taken that all such dis
charges are collected on bits of gauze
o. rag or paper napkins and burned,
II the patient complains OF fever and
headache, he should be given water 70
drink. cold compress to the forehead
and light sponge. Only such medi,

"Then you consider this a serious i
menace?" was asked. "In my opinion
1t is. though / hasten TO add it is dis
rinctly one against which the people
can guard. So far as one can estimate
there are at present about one million
cases Of tuberculosis in the United
States. There is unfortunately no
complete census available TO show ex-
actly the number of tuberculosis per-
sons in each state despite the fact that
most of the states have made TIE dis
ease reportable In New York city,
where reporting has been in force for
many years, over $4,000 cases of tu-
berculosis are registered with the De
partment OF Health. Those familiar
with the situation believe that the ad-
dition of unrecognlzed and unreported
cases would make the number nearer
10000. The. very careful health sur
yey conducted during the past two
years in birmingham. Mass revealed
200 cases Of tuberculosis. in a popula-
ton of approximately 1900. If these
proportions hold true for the United
States as a whole they would indicate
that about one in every hundred per
sons is tubercnlous, Each Of these
constitutes & source Of danger to be
guarded against"
