TUESDAY EVENING, Steelton News Items GRIP EPIDEMIC AT HIGH POINT Xearly 2,(K)0 Cases Reported to Borough Health Authorities E. It. Butler, borough health offi- cer in an interview with a reporter this morning expressed his opinion that the epidemic has apparently reached its height, and while deaths are occurring the number of new cases reported is apparently decreas- ing. With the many precautions taken by the people continued, and the continuation of the good work being done at the Emergency Hos- pital and by the Red Cross, the Boy Scouts and the many individual vol- unteers he believes the epidemic will soon abate. Up to lute last, niglit there were 1.863 cases reported. Although there were live deal lis at the Emergency Hospital lust night and this morn- ing, there were fully as muny or more patients discharged as cured, and many patients throughout the borough were pronounced as being out of danger or entirely cured. Although many have gladly re- sponded to the call for volunteers at lite Emergency Hospital, there is still need for more men to act. as assistants in the good work being done there. | Famous Old Recipe | for Cough Syrup ® Kmllt nnd cheaply made at home, tint it) lirala tlirin uit for quick results. Thousands of housewives have found that they ran save two-thirds of the money usually spent for rough prep- arations. hy using this well-known old recipe for' making cough svrup at home. It is simple ami cheap but it r eally has no equal for prompt results. It takes right hold of a rough and gives immediate relief, usually stopping an ordinary rough in 24 hours or less. Get "(y ounees of Pines from nny druggist, pour it into a pint bottle, and add plain granulated sugar syrup to make a full pint. If you prefer, use clarified molasses, honey, or corn syrup, instead of sugar syrup. Either way, it. tastes pood, keeps perfectly, and lasts a family a long time. It's truly astonishing how quickly \u25a0it acts, penetrating through every air passage of the throat and lungs?loos- ens and raises the phlegm, soothes and heals the membranes, and gradually 3>ut surely the annoying throat tickle and dreaded eongh disappear entirely. Nothing better for bronchitis, spasmo- dic croup, whooping cough or bronchial asthma. Pinex is a special and highly concen- trated compound of genuine Norway pine extract, known the world over for its healing effect on the membranea. Avoid disappointment, bv asking your druggist for "2'k ounces of Pinex" with full directions and don't accept anything else. Guaranteed to give absolute satisfaction or money promptly refunded.

More Jackets are to be made, and Mrs. AVhlpple will be glad lo have women assist In the work. In this work only women can be used who have not had Influenza in their own homes. New Regulations at Emergency Hospital Captain Batley has to-day issued the following new regulations for the Emergency Hospital, and asks that all physicians and all other workers in the epidemic bear them in mind: The Emergency Hospital will re- ceive only diagnosed cases. Patients whose cases have been diagnosed will be received at the hos- pital for treatment, but the inform- ation concerning them must Include: name, age, full address: name of at- tending physician, religion of pa- tient, and name of nearest relatives or persons to be notified should oc- casion demand. !

Frank Knoderer, of the under- j taking firm of Dunkel and Knoderer, | was taken ill this morning with a slight attack of influenza, the prob- able result of overwork.

Charles Smith, of 22 North Fourth j street, watchmaker for the Ideal | Jewelry Company, has been declar- ed out of danger and rapidly on the j road to recovery. i ROHRER FAMILY RECOVERING Mrs. Ruth Rohrer, wife of Landis I Rohrer. the ice cream manufacturer | of South Second street, who was ill : for the last several weeks, has fully j recovered.

SPANISH INFLUENZA-WHAT IT IS AND HOW II SHOULD BE TREATED Nothing New?Simply The Old Grip, or la Grippe That Was Epidemic in 1889-90, Only Then It Came From Russia by Way of France and This Time by Way of Spain. Go to Bed and Stay Quiet ?Take A Laxative?Eat Plenty of Nourishing Food?Keep Up Your Strength Nature Is The Only "Cure". ALWAYS CALL A DOCTOR \<> OCCASION FOR PANIC Spanish influenza, which appeared in Spain in May, has all the appear- ance of Rrip or la grippe, which has swept over the world in numerous epidemics as far back as history runs. Hippocrates refers to an epi- demic in 412 11. C. which is regarded by many to have been influenza. Kvery century has had its attacks, lieginning with 1831, this country has had live epidemics, the last In 1889-90. There is no occasion for panic?- influenza ilseif lias a very low per- centage of fatalities?not over one death out of every four hundred cases, according to the N. C. Hoard of Health. The chief danger lies in complications arising, attacking prin- cipally, patients in a run down con- dition?those who don't go to bed soon enough, or those who get up too early. THE SYMPTOMS Grippe, or influenza as it is now trilled, usually begins with a chill followed by aching, feverishness and sometimes nuusea and dizziness, and a general feeling of weakness und depression. The temperature is from 100 to 104, and the fever usually lasts from three to Ave days. The germs attack the mucuous mem- brane, or lining of the air passages ?nose, throat and bronchia! tubes ?there is usually a hard cougli, especially bad at night, often times a sore throat or tonsilitis, and fre- quently all the appearances of a severe head cold. THE TREATMENT Go to lied at the flrst symptoms, not only for your own sake but to avoid spreading the disease to others?lake a purgative, eat plenty of nourshing food, remain perfectly quiet and don't worry. Quinine, asprin or Dover's Powder, etc., may be administered by the physician's directions to relieve the aching. Hut there Is no cure or specific for iriflunza ?'he disease must run Its course. Nature will throw off the attack If only you keep up your strength, The chief danger lies In the complications which may arise. Influenza so weakens the tiodtiy resistance that there is dan- ger of pneumonia or bronchttls de- veloping, snd sometimes Inflamma- tion of the middle ear, or heart affections. For these reasons, it Is vary Important that the patient remain in bed until his strength returns?stay In bed at least two days or more after the fever has left you, or If you are over 50 or not strong, stay In bed four days or more, according to the severity of the attack. EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS In order to stimulate the lining of the air passages to throw oft the grippe germs, to aid In loosening the phlegm and keeping the air pass- ages open, thus making the breath- ing easier, Tick's Vapoßub will be found effective: Hot. wet towels should be applied over tho throat, chest and back between the shoulder blades to open the pores. Then Vapoßub should be rubbed in over the parts until the skin is red ? n ,hickly and cover with two thicknesses of hot flannel cloths Leave ilie clothing loose around the neck as the heat of the body liber- ates the ingredients in the from of \upors. These vapors, inhaled with n , !lth 'v. L ' arry the medication directly to the parts affected. At the same time, Vapoßub is absorbed thru and stimulates the skin at- tracting the blood to the surface and thus aids in relieving the con- gestion within. HOW TO AVOID THE DISEASE Evidence seems to prove that this is a germ disease, spread principally by human contact, chiefly thru coughing, sneezing or spitting So avoid persons having rolds?which rtHnkfn avoidinK crowds -common dunking cups, roller towels, etc Keep up your bodily strength bv plenty of exercise in the open air and good food. Above all. keen from colds, as colds irritate the lin- ing of the air passages and render them much better breeding places for the germs. Use Viok's Vapoßub at the very first sign of a cold. For a head '\u25a0old. melt a little Vapoßub in a spoon and inhale the vapors or better still, use Vapoßub in a ben- zoin steam kettle. If this is not available, use an ordinary tea-kettle. Fill half-full of boiling water, put in half a teaspoon of Vapoßub from time to time ?keep the kettle Just slowly boiling and inhale the steam arising. NOTE. Viek's Vapoßub is the discovery of a North Carolina drug- gist, who found how to combine, in salve form, Menthol and Camphor with such volatile oils as Eucalyptus, Thyme, Cuhebs, etc.. so that "when the salve is applied to the body heat, these ingredients are liberated in the form of vapors. Vapoßub is comparatively new In New York State and New England and a few Western States where it Is just now being Introduced, but In other sections of the country It Is the standard home remedy In more than a million homes for all forms of cold troubles. Over six million Jars were sold last year. It Is particularly recommended for children's croup or colds, since It Is externally applied and therefore can be used as freely as desired without the slightest harmful effects. Vapo- Rub can be had in three alses at all druggists. f Clergymen Respond to Call For Volunteers In answer to the eall sent forth by those in Charge of the emergency hospital, practically every clergyman In Bteelton has responded! 'Their servlees Were eagerly accepted and they were put to work immediately! Lnst night the Itev.' J, K, Hoffman, of the United Evangelical Church, was on duty; to-day the Rev. G. H, Hogelketi ,o( the Presbyterian Church, and -tho HeV, William C. Hellman, rector of Trinity Episcopal Parish, wero on duty, while to- night's work will bo done by the Rev. H. A.

Chick, safety engineer of the steel plant, who Is overseer of the hospital, oxpreaSed his appreciation of the autlon of the clergy of town, and said ho sin- cerely hoped their action would be followed by other men, there being sore need for morn help. Delirious Influenza Victim at Large A rumor, apparently well founded, but which has not been authenti- cated, has it that last night. Luke Zelich, In a derlllum of Influenza, escaped from his boardlnghouse in South Front street and is still at large. Zelich is about 28 years old, something over six feet In height, has black hair and black moustache. When he left the boardinghouse he was without shoes or stockings and had but litt'e other clothing. It Is not known where he is or what di- rection he to'ok.

SPANISH INFLUENZA-WHAT IT ISAND HOW II SHOULD BE TREATED

Nothing New?Simply The Old Grip, or la Grippe ThatWas Epidemic in 1889-90, Only Then It Came

From Russia by Way of France and ThisTime by Way of Spain.

Go to Bed and Stay Quiet ?TakeA Laxative?Eat Plenty ofNourishing Food?Keep UpYour Strength NatureIs The Only "Cure".

ALWAYS CALL A DOCTOR

\<> OCCASION FOR PANICSpanish influenza, which appeared

in Spain in May, has all the appear-ance of Rrip or la grippe, which hasswept over the world in numerousepidemics as far back as historyruns. Hippocrates refers to an epi-demic in 412 11. C. which is regardedby many to have been influenza.Kvery century has had its attacks,

lieginning with 1831, this countryhas had live epidemics, the last In1889-90.

There is no occasion for panic?-influenza ilseif lias a very low per-centage of fatalities?not over onedeath out of every four hundredcases, according to the N. C. Hoardof Health. The chief danger lies incomplications arising, attacking prin-cipally, patients in a run down con-dition?those who don't go to bedsoon enough, or those who get uptoo early.

THE SYMPTOMSGrippe, or influenza as it is now

trilled, usually begins with a chillfollowed by aching, feverishness andsometimes nuusea and dizziness, anda general feeling of weakness unddepression. The temperature isfrom 100 to 104, and the feverusually lasts from three to Ave days.The germs attack the mucuous mem-brane, or lining of the air passages?nose, throat and bronchia! tubes?there is usually a hard cougli,especially bad at night, often timesa sore throat or tonsilitis, and fre-quently all the appearances of asevere head cold.

THE TREATMENTGo to lied at the flrst symptoms,

not only for your own sake but toavoid spreading the disease toothers?lake a purgative, eat plentyof nourshing food, remain perfectlyquiet and don't worry. Quinine,asprin or Dover's Powder, etc., maybe administered by the physician'sdirections to relieve the aching.Hut there Is no cure or specific foririflunza ?'he disease must run Itscourse. Nature will throw off theattack If only you keep up yourstrength, The chief danger liesIn the complications which mayarise. Influenza so weakens thetiodtiy resistance that there is dan-ger of pneumonia or bronchttls de-veloping, snd sometimes Inflamma-tion of the middle ear, or heartaffections. For these reasons, it Isvary Important that the patientremain in bed until his strengthreturns?stay In bed at least twodays or more after the fever hasleft you, or If you are over 50 ornot strong, stay In bed four daysor more, according to the severity ofthe attack.

EXTERNAL APPLICATIONSIn order to stimulate the lining

of the air passages to throw oft thegrippe germs, to aid In loosening thephlegm and keeping the air pass-ages open, thus making the breath-ing easier, Tick's Vapoßub will befound effective: Hot. wet towelsshould be applied over tho throat,chest and back between the shoulderblades to open the pores. ThenVapoßub should be rubbed in overthe parts until the skin is red

? n ,hickly and cover withtwo thicknesses of hot flannel clothsLeave ilie clothing loose around theneck as the heat of the body liber-ates the ingredients in the from of\upors. These vapors, inhaled with

n ,!lth

'v.L'arry the medicationdirectly to the parts affected. Atthe same time, Vapoßub is absorbedthru and stimulates the skin at-tracting the blood to the surfaceand thus aids in relieving the con-gestion within.

HOW TO AVOID THE DISEASEEvidence seems to prove that thisis a germ disease, spread principallyby human contact, chiefly thrucoughing, sneezing or spitting Soavoid persons having rolds?which

rtHnkfn avoidinK crowds -commondunking cups, roller towels, etcKeep up your bodily strength bvplenty of exercise in the open airand good food. Above all. keenfrom colds, as colds irritate the lin-ing of the air passages and renderthem much better breeding placesfor the germs.

Use Viok's Vapoßub at the veryfirst sign of a cold. For a head'\u25a0old. melt a little Vapoßub in aspoon and inhale the vapors orbetter still, use Vapoßub in a ben-zoin steam kettle. If this is notavailable, use an ordinary tea-kettle.Fill half-full of boiling water, putin half a teaspoon of Vapoßub fromtime to time ?keep the kettle Justslowly boiling and inhale the steamarising.

NOTE. Viek's Vapoßub is thediscovery of a North Carolina drug-gist, who found how to combine, insalve form, Menthol and Camphorwith such volatile oils as Eucalyptus,Thyme, Cuhebs, etc.. so that "whenthe salve is applied to the bodyheat, these ingredients are liberatedin the form of vapors.

Vapoßub is comparatively new InNew York State and New Englandand a few Western States where itIs just now being Introduced, butIn other sections of the country ItIs the standard home remedy Inmore than a million homes for allforms of cold troubles. Over sixmillion Jars were sold last year. ItIs particularly recommended forchildren's croup or colds, since It Isexternally applied and therefore canbe used as freely as desired withoutthe slightest harmful effects. Vapo-Rub can be had in three alses atall druggists.
