THE TREATMENT OF INFLUENZA. For the week ending November 17th, 260 cases of Influenza were reported to the State Board oC Health. Now that influenza is un doubtedly epidemic in this state, it well to know how to treat this diease and how to control it. In a preceding letter we warned the pub lic of the possibility of an epidemic and gave a list of precautions to be taken to prevent the spread of this disease. Both the cure and preven tion of influenza depend on knowing the cause. The best way to keep from taking influenza is to keep away from people having this high ly contagious disease. When you feel an attack of in fluenza coming on, take a laxative and a glass of hot lemonade and go to bed early. Eat lightly, drink wate rfreely and stay in bed until all symptoms have disappeared. Is olate yourself. Do not kiss or even shake hands. Just because some one has passed this disease on to you is no excuse for your being careless. This is not a spectacular course of treatment nor will it pro duce striking results, but it will cut down greatly the chances for com- Tbe Prince of Wales On a trip in East Africa when news of the King's illness reached him, the Prince of Wales started out on a 6,000 mile dash to the King's bedside plications, such aa pneumonia and other infections. The streptococcus hemolyticus Is usually unable to invade the heal thy body but gains entrance in per sons who are run down by influen za. Streptococcus pneumonia is a very serious complication and the chances of pulling through after this infection has invaded the body are none too good. The importance of calling in a physician early can not be too high ly emphasized. Many of the com plications of influenza can be pre vented by proper treatment For the sake of others it is well to re member that influenza is a conta gious disease and it is up to you to keep it to yourself. USE YOUR HANDKERCHIEF and prevent the spread of influenza. Sneezing and rtnucrhtnar gnrflv out drODlctS of moisture loaded with germs and any one nearby is almost certain to gei a good does of this. If you have in fluenza, go to bed and isolate your self. MISS BENGE ENTERTAINS.
