How to Avoid Influenza.

There is one point regarding infiu
enza on which the medical profession
is In agreement. This is stated by the
Journal of the American Medical As
ISOLATION as follows:

influenza, which make 1t so serious a
disease, may be avoided to large ex-
tent by rest in bed at the onset of the
Illness. Influenza itself is not usually
fatal, and general insistence on the
importance of rest and warmth at the
onset of the illness will accomplish
more than all else in preventing COM
plications and reducing fatalities from
the disease"
