CAUGHT Y THE Released fey Pe-ru-na Conpssraan- Howard's Recovery Congressman / Gee , H , White's Case v La Grippe is epidemic catarrh. It spares no class or nationality. The cul tured and the ignorant , the aristocrat and the pauper. The masses and the classes are alike subject to la grippe. None are exempt all are liable. Have you the grip ? Or , rather , has the grip got you ? Grip is well named. The original French term , la grippe , has been shortened by the busy Amer ican to read "grip. " Without intend ing to do so a new word has been coined that exactly describes the case. As if some hideous giant with awful GUIP had clutched us in its fatal clasp.
