The patient should never cough into the open air, hecause hy this means he sprays the air with in- fected material; he should, rather. | cough into a cloth which should he burned after use. Coughing without the use of a handkerchief held to the mouth should not be tolerated at all in street cars, theaters, etc. During an epidemic individuals should avoid theaters, mass meetings, closed and crowded cars, etc., as much as pos- sible and persons should also suard against exposure to cold or wet.

The danger from the use of common drinking common towels, improperly red glasses ete. should be emphas- | sized; also, s in public places should be rigorously suppressed. If a man is seen spitting in a public place his attention should be called to the fact that he may needlessly be exposing his fellows to infection. Symptoms of the Discase.

It is by no means certain { that the disease will assume epidemic proportions in this country, but it is up to each one of us individually to take all necessary precautions against the disease, for the infection can be { passed on from person to person. If an epidemic were to occur in this country at the present time the re- sulting diminution of war activities would be deplorable. Prevention is always, and especially in such cases as this, better than cure.
