If the "Flu" Attacks You

In guarding against disease of all kinds it is important that the body be kept strong and able to fight off disease germs. Perhaps the best way this can be done is by having proper proportion of work, play and rest, by keeping the body well clothed and by eating sufficient wholesome and prop erly selected food.
 In connection with diet, it is well to remember that milk is one of the best all-round foods obtainable for adults as well as children. In a dis ease like influenza health authorities everywhere recognize the very close relation between it's spread and over crowding.
 While it is not always possible, es- pecially in times like the present, to avoid overcrowding, people should consider the danger to health and make every effort to reduce home overcrowding to a minimum. The value of fresh air thorugh open win dowS cannot be over-emphasized.
 So far as avoidance of direct infec- tion through inhalation is concerned, it is advisable to beware of the per son who coughs or sneeZes without covering his mouth and nose. It also follows that one should keep out of crowds and stuffy places as much as possible; keep homes, offices and workshops we'll aired; spend some time out of doors each day; walk to work if at all practicable; in short, make every effort to breathe as much pure air as possible.
 The indirect transmission of inf1u- enZa while more difficult to avoid. can perhaps be guarded against to 6 certain extent. Less shaking of hands, stunning unciean soda foun- tains and restaurants. avoiding the use of common drinking cups and common towels. insistence on the op servance of sanitary practices in food handling establishments, and on the enforcement, by the authorities, of the sanitary regulations governing such places-these are all measures that will help guard against infection. Their more general practice would do much to prevent the spread of disease. generally. So far as our present knowledge goes, to large extent the prevention of influenza can be summed up in the single word, cleanliness"

v REVIEW LEASED WIRE

NEW YORK, Feb. 2.-Fresh de- moralization in foreign exchange, call loans rising to 16 per cent and time money still unobtainable at an ad- vance of the bid to 9 and even 10 per cent, accounted mainly for today's very listless stock market.
 There was a show of activity and strength at the outset, apparently on the belief that debate oA the peace treaty might be hastened by Viscount Grey's statement. This was soon dis pelled. the market reacting at the first sign of pressure and lapsing into a state of apathy for the balance of the session.
 Last weeks local bank statements were regarded as fairly encouraging, but a survey of conditions at other leading centers disclosed mixed gains and losses, western and southwestern sections mostly strengthening their reserves.
 Rails were the only important stocks to manifest a degree of firm ness and better sentiment on the part of investors and speculative interests. Their moderate strength was derived from the progress of federal legisla- tion. Sales amounted to 475,000 shares.
 There was steady liquidation throughout the session of Liberty bonds and Victory notes, as well as speculative rails and industrials. For eign bonds, including Japanese As, were reactionary at slight changes. Total sales Cpar value) aggregated l s1975o 900. Old United States bonds were unchaned on call.
