SPANISH INFLUENZA MORE DEADLY THAN WAR Said Tht Epidemic Cost More Lives Than American Los in Battle. Danger Not Over. Great Care Necessary to Prevent Further Outbreak. The appalling ravages of Spanish In fluenza in this country are perhaps best realized by the statement recently made, that more deaths have resulted in little more than a month from this disease than through our whole eighteen months par ticipation in the battles of the European War. Our greatest danger now, declare au thorities, is the great American tendency to forget easily and to believe the peril is over. Competent authorities claim the coming of cold weather is very apt to bring a return of this disease and there should be no let-up throughout the win ter months of the following easily ob served precautions, remembering that In fluenza is far easier to prevent than cure. Influenza is a crowd disease . Avoid crowds as much as possible. Influenza germs spread when ignorant or careless persons sneeze or cough without using a handkerchief. Cover up each cough or sneeze. Do not spit on the floor, side walk, In street cars or public places Avoid the use of common drinking cups and roller towels in public places. Breathe some reliable germicidal and antiseptic air to destroy the germs that do find lodgement in jour nose or throat. Remember, no gaf;r precaution against influenza could bo employed in this man ner than to get from the nearest drug store a complete Hyomei Outfit, consisting of a bottle of the Pure Oil bf Hyomei and a little vest-pocket hard rubber in haling device, into which a few drops of the oil are poured. You should carry this Inhaler abodt with you during the day and each half hour jr so put it in your mouth and draw deep breaths of its pure, healing germ killing air into the passages of your nose, throat and lungs. By destroying germs before they actu ally begin to wori in your blood, you may amke yourself practically immune to in fection. All these suggestions about Spanish In fluenza are equally true in the preven tion of eolds, catarrh of nose and throat, bronchitis and even pneumonia. Don't become careless. Do your part. Keep the germs away. You may save yourself a serious illness and the loss of several weeks' work. Sherman & McConnell Drug Co. Advertisement.
