Rawbngs, state health director, who declares that this infection is the original wolf in the garb of a lamb. Starting out with the appearance of the most trifling and innocent ailments or offensea cold, the grippe, or measles-pneumonia ·settles matters with a dispatch that is rare even among diseases. Prevalence of pneumonia is just about twice as great now as it was at this time last year. Careful attention to trifling ills, avoidance of overfatigue and dissipation, and isolation of pneumonia patients are the chief means of prevention. "Last week 795 cases of pneumonia were reported," said Dr. Rawlings, "against 298 for the corresponding week in 1927. Since reports are not more than 75 or M per cent complete there are now more than 1,000 new cases developing weekly in Illinois. It is rare that, the state experiences a gre~ter pre·alence of this dise.-se than now exists. Aatborizecl Goodyear Service is frtt to all c1111omrn.
