PREVENT THE FLU

Keep Your System Clean Inside and Out. SPRAY YOUR NOSE AND THROAT DAILY. TAKE A LAXATIVE BATH. Give Nature a Chance by Thorough Cleanliness and You Will Be Almost Sure to Avoid It. The Symptoms. Grippe, or influenza as it is now called, usually begins with a chill followed by aching, feverishness and sometimes nausea and dizziness, and a general feeling of weakness and depression. The temperature is from 100 to 104, and the fever usually lasts from three to five days. The germs attack the mucous membrane, or lining of the air passages—nose, throat and bronchial tubes—there is usually a hard cough, especially bad at night, often times a sore throat or tonsilitis, and frequently all the appearances of a severe head cold. Ho.w to Avoid the Disease. Evidences seems to prove that this is a germ disease, spread principally by human contact, chiefly through coughing, sneezing or spitting. So avoid'persons having colds—common drinking cups, roller towels, etc. Keep up your bodily strength by plenty of exercise in the open air, and good food. Above all, keep - free from colds, as colds irritate the lining of the air passages and render them much better breeding places for the germs.

The Treatment. Go to bed at the first symptoms, not only for your own sake but to avoid spreading the disease to others —take a purgative, eat plenty of nourishing food, remain perfectly quiet and don’t worry. Quinine, Aspirin or Dover’s Ponders, etc., may be administered by the physician’s directions to relieve the aching. But there is no cure for specific influenza —the disease must run its course. Nature itself will throw off the attack if only you keep your strength. The chief danger lies in the complications which may arise. Influenza so weakens the bodily resistance that there is danger of pneumonia or bronchitis developing, and sometimes inflammation of the middle ear, or heart affections. For these reasons it is very important that the patient remain in bed until his strength returns. Prevention la the Thing. Glando Gargle is a splendid disinfectant and keeps the glands and air. passages in a healthy condition. For I a Laxative and Tonic take the general, Gland-Aid treatment Sold at alii druggists.—Advt •

WAR HINTS, HELPS, DUTIES

COMPLIED AND CONDENSED FOR THE STATE COUNCIL OF DEFENSE BY GEORGE ADE. If there is a community anywhere in Indiana that has not gone definitely and resolutely over the top on the Fourth Liberty Loan, the State Council of Defense entreats the good and loyal citizens of that community to subscribe and keep on subscribing until the world knows what your answer will be to all deceptive peace propositions. Your failure to respond to the call of duty will be just as calamitous as a defeat at the front. If you are going to give a head-ache to any one these days, give it to the enemy in Berlin and not to the men fighting our battles.*

One subtle purpose of the request for an “armistice” was to divide sentiment and slow up the fighting energies of the great forces that are now settling .all issues involved in the war. The man who begins to hold back his help’on the theory that “the war is about over” is the one who is really working to prolong'the war and increase the total losses. A good foot-ball team plunges all the harder when the other fellows begin _to break in the line. Now is the time when speed and energy will count. No let up! Straight on to victory! .* * * *

Every Red Cross chapter has received copies of a leaflet on “Spanish Influenza,” telling about the prevention and treatment of the disease. Get a copy and help to check the epidemic. ♦♦ » ♦ Do your Christmas shopping this month and next month —the sooner the better. Don’t ask for special deliveries and don’t involve the merchant in a lot of book-keeping on your account, ♦♦ * ♦ We must deliver to the allies seventeen million tons of food-stuffs. This is fifty per cent greater than our total food contributions during the past year. We must conserve the staple foods, not part of the time but . all of the time. ♦* * ♦ Only one Christmas parcel will be accepted by the Red Cross for shipment to a soldier overseas. Each soldier will be given a Christmas Parcel label which he will forward to the person at home from whom he wishes to receive the package. No package will be received unless it bears a special label. The card-board boxes which must be used can be obtained rom Red Cross chapters and branches after November Ist. The parcels must be turned in at Red Cross receiving stations not later than November 15th. Get the special directions regarding contents and total weight before making final plans as to what you are going to send him.

The school children were to have taken a census of the live stock in Indiana this week but the flurry over “flu” has closed the schools, so the federal - authorities probably will ask for it next month. ♦♦ ♦ * Governor Goodrich, in his recent proclamation, requested every farmer to have enough good seed corn for two years safely hung in the dry by October 15th. How about it? Private D. M. McMurray returned to Indianapolis today after a short visit with his wife and children, who are sick with the Spanish influenza.
