"Flu" Dos and Dont's
Listed By Physicians
Rest in Bed Termed Best Treat
ment in Absence of Vaccine
or Serum

St. Paul, Minnesota-No serum
or vaccine has yet been envoled
that is of any real value in preven-
ton or cure of the old winter
boyle, influenza.
This is the opinion of Minnesota
State Medical Association experts
expressed in a bulletin issued this
week on influenza.
"The best preventive for this
cold weather malady is to keep
yourself as we'll as possible and
avoid contact with possible infec-
ton" says the bulletin.
Following are the Dos and
Don't issued by the experts for all
who want a winter free, as pos
sibIe, from all kinds of respiratory
Infections: -
e. Get plenty of sleep and rest
(eight to ten hours every night
with windows open but under
enough covering to keep warm.
Eat a moderate mixed diet
and drink plenty Of water (six to
eight glasses daily.)
Swear clothing enough to be
comfortable, to prevent chilling of
body surfaces, and to keep the
body dry.
4+Keep out of dense crowds as
far as possible.
5-Avoid people with colds espe-
cially those who are sneezing and
coughing. Remember that there Is
more danger from contact with
those just beginning to feel sick
than from those ill enough to be
confined to bed.
6-Avoid the use of common
towels, wash basins, glasses, eat
ing utensils and toilet articles.
( 7-Wash hands thoroughly be-
fore eating. ..- --.--
For the unfortunates who have
already contracted the disease,
here is good advice that may pre-
vent serious illness and complica-
lions. ~ =
If you have a cold or feel ill,
go to bed at once, cover up warmly
having your windows open; send
for a physician and follow his in
structions.
F. 2+Do not take any so-called
cures. There is no specific cure
for this disease.
3If you cannot reach doctor
remain in bed, eat a simple diet,
take plenty of fluids such as
water, fruit juices, milk, bouillon
and hot soups at frequent inter-
walls.
Remember says the bulletin,
'"That the most important measure
of treatment for preventing pneu-
monia is to remain in bed until all
symptoms have ceased and then,
under physicians advice, to re-
turn gradually without fatiguing
yourself, to your usual activities.

this business was laid over until
tomorrow when adoption is held

Both houses adjourned early out
of respect to members who have

The -senate'e schedule after an
uneventful opening carries a
threat of a revolt of the western
Republican "sons of the wild Jack
ass against the reelection as pres
ident pro tenn of the man who
gave them that nickname, Senator
George H. Moses, New Hampshire.
Senator Joseph T. Robinson, DEM
ocrat Arkansas, will. move election
of Senator Key Pittman, Demo
crat, Nevada, to this post, where
upon the westerners will have the
opportunity they have sought to
humiliate Moses by supporting an
other Republican.
Election of Garner as speaker
was accompanied by furrore and
enthusiasm. Garner eschewed any
frock coat efforts at presiding af-
ter William Tyler Page, Republi-
can clerk, pronounced him elected.
In a brown business suit he took a
gavel made of mesquite wood from
his native state, and set out i'm
mediately to rule the house firmly.
He made a speech thanking the
Democrats and his own state for
electing him to the speakership
and asserting that he was making
no promises to any one.
House Republicans smoothed out
their own inter-party squabble i'm
mediately after the session by ac-
cepting in conference the resigna-
ton of Representative John Q Til
son, Conn, as floor leader. Shell, as
his party's choice for speaker, sue
ceeds to the post. The conference
referred to it's steering committee
the question of awarding the few
minority jobs among the many
who are being displaced by Demo-
Gratis.
A flood of $3.50 bills prepared
and filed for introduction by house
members, was held up by the act
ion of the Democrats in postponing
action on the rules changes until
tomorrow. Several members objec-
ted to any action which would
have kept the rules of the last con-
gress in effect and permitted intro
duction of the bills, fearing that in
the jam the liberalization pro-
posals might be lost. They took no
chances. Representative F. H. La
Guardia, Republican, New York,
was in the forefront of this band
of watchful walters. -- -.-. =

26 Died Of tuberculosis
In Stearns County in 1890
Records Show $50 Have Been
White Plague Victims in
County Since 1910

Stearns county added 26 to the list
of deaths from tuberculosis during
the past year to raise Minnesota's
total to 1,243 during 1880, according
to a report recently issued by the
Minnesota Public Health Associa-
ton.
A total of 691 persons have been
claimed by the White Plague in
Stearns county since 1910, states
the bulletin sent out in connection
with the 25th annual Christmas
Seal sale of finance the program to
eradicate tuberculosis.
RECORDS of tuberculosis deaths
in Minnesota show that the death
rate during the Is years of Christ
mas Seal work has decreased from
104.93 in 1906 to 48.4S per 100000
persons in $780," the report con-
tinues. '"This means that approx
mately three persons are dying in
Minnesota each day.
"To put it another way if the
death rate of a quarter of a CEN
tury had continued, Minnesota's
1880 death toll from tuberculosis
would have been $3.50 instead of
1,243. This represents the saving of
some 1900 lives in the year 1880
alone.
Although the 1,243 deaths at
tributed to tuberculosis in 1890
was 1913 fewer that the previous
year, this disease still ranks first
as a cause of death in these years
from Is to As. For this reason, tub
erculosis remains the greatest
single health problem. 1t claims
over 10000 persons annually in the
United States.
Health authorities have warned
that efforts must be increased to
prevent an upward trend in the
death rate during the coming year,
since the enforced reduction in the
standard of living will make for
conditions favorable to the spread
of tuberculosis.
There is sufficient knowledge at
hand at present to bring the di-
sease under control. Christmas
Seals extend this knowledge every
where and carry on a campaign
for it's application for the proven
ton and cure of tuberculosis"

some scheme to find new ways to

the only practical way there is to

fully in his budget message tomor-
row. He did say the $2,123, 900 900
deficit expected this year needs to
be partially financed by borrowing,
but taxation should be increased as
to balance the budget next year.
Seldom has he been more emph-
attic than in warning that for con-
gress to go beyond the limits he
prescribes ain either expenditures,
taxes or borrowing will destroy
confidence, denude commerce and
industry of it's resources, jeopardize
the financial system and actually
extend unemployment and demon
