Important Announcement

cated on the eighth floor of the Or
egon building, Fifth and Oak
streets, Portland. Many of the oth
er state baords and departments

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-

news of the King's illness reached
him, the Prince of Wales started out

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.
