Hippoc- rates refers to an epidemic in 412 B. ©., which is regarded by many to have been influenza. bhas had its attacks. Beginning with 1831, this country has had five epi- demics, the last in 1889-90. There is no occasion for panic—in- f fluenza. itself has a very low percent- age of fatalities——not over one death out of every four hundred cases, ac- cording to the N. C. board of health. The chief danger lies in complications arising, attacking principally patients in a run down condition—those who don’t go to bed soon enough, or those who get up too early. THE SYMPTOMS, Grip, or Influenza, as it called, usually begins with followed by aching, feverishness and sometimes nausea and dizzines & general feeling of weakn and de- pression. The temperature from 100 to 104, and the fever usually lasts from three to five days. The germs attack the mucous membrane, or lin- ing of the air passages—nose , and bronchial tubes—there is usually a hard cough, especially bad at night, is is often times a sore throat or tonsilitis, | and frequently all the appearances of ! head cold. THE TREATMENT, Go to bed at the first symptoms, not only for vour own sake, but mvoid spreading the disease to other: —~take a purgative, eat plenty nourishing food, remain fnujet and don't worry. Quinine, As- pirin or Dover's Powder, etc,, may ho administered by the physician’s di- rections to relieve the aching. But there {8 no cure or specific for influ- enza—the disease must run its course Nature herself will throw off the a tack if only you keep up your strngth, The chief danger lies in the complica tlons 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. Tor these reasons, it is very important that the patient remain in bed until his strength re- turns—stay in bed at least two day or more after the fever has left you, or if you are over 50 or not strong, #tay in bed four days or more, ac- eerding to the severity of the attack. & severe {in the form of vapors.

In order to stimulate the lining of the air passages to throw off the grip germs, to aid in loosening the phlegm and keeping the air passages open, thus making the breathing eas- ier, Vick’s VapoRub will be foud ef- fective, Fot, wet towels should be applied over the throat, chest and back between the shoulder blades to open the pores. Then VapoRub should be rubbed in over the parts until the skin is red, spread on thick- ly and covered with two thicknesses of hot flannel cloths. Leave the cloth- ing loose round the neck as the heat of the body liberates the ingredients These vapors, inhaled with each breath, carry the medjcation directly to the parts af- fected. At ‘the same tim,e VavoRub is absorbed through and stimulates the skin, attracting the blood to the surface, and thus aids in relieving the congestion within. HOW TO AVOID THE DISEASE. vidence 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—which means avoiding crowds-—common drinking cups, roller towels, etc. Keep up vour bodily strength by plenty of exercise in the open air, and good food. KEEP FREE FROM COLDS. , keep free from colds, as the lining of the air render them much : places for the germs. Jse Vick's VapoRub at the very first sign of a cold. For a head cold, melt a little VapoRub in a spoon and In- hale the vapors, or better still, use VapoRub In a benzoin steam kettle. If this is not available, use an ordin- ! ary tea-kettle. Fill half full of boil- | \ng water, put in half a teaspoon JapoRub from time to time—keep the kettle just slowly boiling and in- hale the steam arising.

Your hair is your charm. It makes or mars the face. When it fades, turns gray or streaked, just an application or two of Sage and Sul- phur enhances its appearance a hun- dredfold. Don’t bother to prepare the mix- | ture; you can get this famous old recipe jmproved by the addition of other ingredients at a small cost, all ready for use. It is called Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Compound. This can always be depended upon to bring back the natural color and lustre of your hair. Evervbody uses “Wyeth's" Sage and Sulphur Compound now because it | darkens so naturally and evenly that nobdy can tell it has been applied. You simply dampen a sponge or soft brush with it and draw this through the hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair has disappeared, and after another appli- cation it becomes beautifully dark and appears glossy and lustrous. This ready--to-use preparation is a delight- ful toilet requisite for those who de- sire dark hair and a youthful appear- ance.
