Avoiding the use of common drinking cups and common towels, insistence on the ob- servance of sanitary practices in food handling establishments-thes are all measures by which every citizen can safeguard himself against infection. Their more general practice would do much to prevent the spread of dis ease generally.

DOCTOR GIVES
 TIMELY ADVICE . ON INFLUENZA
(By Rex F. Schwartz, M. D.

T. D.J
 The recent reports of a recurrence of influenza in Chicago and vicinity, @I believe, calls for a timely warning and explanation of this disease, so that we may do everything possible to prevent a pandemic such as swept the world during the year 1918. Ee
 Its appearance again in epidemic form need cause no undue alarm, but the knowledge gained from the last . epidemic fits us better to employ pre- ventive methods rather than curative remedies.
 The questions are. often asked, What is the flu? Is it something new? Does it come from Spain?"
 The disease called "the f1u," or in- 1uenza, usually resembles very con- tagious kind of cold, accompanied by fever, pains in the head, eyes, ears,
 
 8 feeling of severe sickness. In most cases the patient rapidly recovers in three or four days; some patients, however, develop pneumonia or in- f1ammation of the ear; in many com plicated cases, die.
 Spanish influenza is apparently iden- tical with the epidemics of earlier . years. Tn 1889 and 1890 the disease was epidemic over practically the en- tire civilized world. Although the re- cent epidemic was called Spanish in- f1uenza," investigation has shown that it did not originate in Spain.
 There is as yet no certain way in which a single case of influenza can be recognized. Epidemics may occur at any season of the year In most cases a person taken sick with inf1u- enza feels sick rather suddenly. He feels weak, has pains in the eyes, ears, head, or back, abdomen, etc., and may be sore all over. Many patients feel dizzy; some vomit Most of the pa tients complain of feeling chilly, and with this comes a fever in which the temperature rises to from 100 to 104 degrees. Tn most cases the pulse re- mains comparatively slow. The eyes and inner side of the eyelids may be slightly "b1oodshot," or congested. There may be running from the nose or there may be some cough. In a r mber of instances large propor- ton show intestinal trouble such as %liarrhea. As already mentioned, most cases are apparently infections of the respiratory organs, and resem- ble a very contagious kind of cold. Ordinarily the fever lasts three to four days and the patient recovers. When death occurs it is usually the re-
