It is not yet epidemic in Indiana, only in a few places, It has invaded several t.f our training camps and has become epidemic in civil life. There is no specific remedy.

Wc must depend upon' the "ounce of prevention. The infection is in the secretions of the mouth and the nose. If all spitting would immediately cease, and if. ail coughers and sneezers would hold a cloth or paper handkerchief over their 'glioses and mouths when eoughiifg or snetvz-ingY then influenza and coughs and colds would almost disappear. Wa also, must not forget to tone up our physical health, for even a few microbes nw find lodgement in low-toned boa-4 ies.

I 'J gain high physical. tone.Jget plenty of sleep in jwall ventilated bed rooms. Don't worry, don't, feast, don't hurry, don't fret. Look carefully after elimination. Eat only plain foods.

Avohi riolious eating of flesh. Go Plow on coffee and tea. Avaid alcohol in every form. Cut out all drugs and dopes. Especially avoid such drugs as morphine.

Esperine, ascentariilid and the whole host of German-made coal tar -poisons. Take no medicine except' under advice and. prescription of a phsiciarw 7 Stay out of crowds. If perforce, you are in a crowd, beat a rapid retreat from the region where any person, spits or coughs or sneezes without holding cloth or paper handkerchief over his mouth, and nose. If influenza overtakes you, eo home, go to bed in a well ventilated room and send for a physician.
