| Under the caption "A New Epidem-
lc,' Iha Journal-Lancet in an editorial
in its issue of Feb. l will say:
st was predicted, in 1918 and in
1919, that there would be renewal of
the influenza epidemic this year, but
tae prediction has not been entirely or
definitely fulfilled. That there is an
epidemic, however, throughout the
country there can be no doubt, and it
invades not only the north, but the
south and the west, as well 1t has
assumed rather strange forms in that
there is nothing very classical in the
way of symptoms in the majority of
patients who have the new form of i'll
ness. For instance, in a small town in
southern Minnesota sudden epidemic
developed among a restricted number
Of people, in fact, largely among two
related families, and up to the present
five deaths out of 10 cases have been
reported. The majority of those who
dlsd did so within "a hours, and were
apparently perfectly we'll part of one
day, and were taken sick and died the
following day. Those who recovered

only things that were in evidence.
There welfa no findings in the spinal
fluid that would warrant a diagnosis
of meningitis. The conclusion of
the investigator, DIR. C. E. Nixon, was
that these were probably all cases of
encephalitis. Thos, who died evil

case staphylococci were found and in
another case a gram-positive organism

Evidently Contagious.
"The disease was evidently a eonta-
gious one, for it occurred in families
that were closely nelated, and were
very closely associated.
Aside from this epidemic there is
apparently wave of something going
oNar the country which resembles a
mild form of influenza, but, so far, the
physicians have hesitated about using
this term, partly because the majority
of cases were not typically Influenza,
and partly to allay fear in the mind
of the public. That there are some
cases of influenza there is no question
However, the majority of these pa
tients who are suffering from bac-

If you have severe cough or chest
cold accompanied with soreness, throat
tickle, hoarseness, or difficult breathing,
or if your child wakes up during the
night with Group and you want quick
help, try this reliable old home made
cough remedy. Any druggist can supply
you with 21a ounces of Pinex, Pour
this into pint bottle and fill the bottle
with plain graduated sugar syrup. Or
you can use clarified molasses, honey, or
corn syrup, instead OF sugar syrup, II
desired. This recipe makes pint of
really remarkable cough emedy. 1t
tastes good, and in spite OF its low cost,
it can be depended upon to give quick
and lasting relief.
You can feel this take hold of a
cough in way that means business.

throat tickle and soothes and heals the
irritated membranes that line the throat

known means OF overcoming severe
coughs, throat and chest colds.
