CROWDS in attendance at Social gatherings, Public meetings, Restaurants, Places of amusement; together with lack of pure Air in overheated and unventilated rooms and halls, plus lowered vitality after the day’s work, easily and clearly account for the great excess of cases in the above table, between the hours from 6 to 10 p.m. Influenza has neither cosmic nor heliacal connections. SALIENT POINTS. Care of the Flu patient. Ventilation of the sick room should be carried out with due regard to the wishes of the patient. What is a cooling agreeable breeze to the average Caucasian, may be felt as an Arctic blast by the Hawaiians and Asiatic races; this causes them to fret and worry. There is a happy medium in ventilation of sick rooms, as in all things. If the patient has Pneumonia, encourage resting on the right or left side, changing from time to time; discourage any patient from lying on the back. The Health of the Nurse. The Nurse must protect her own health, by regular hours for work, rest, sleep, meals and exercise; an overworked nurse is a non-efficient nurse, and it sends her along the road to a breakdown and makes her or him more subject to acquiring Flu from the patients. Practise nose breathing. Use sign language in the sick room; keep the mouth closed; tightly closed lips are a better safeguard than a Flu mask; mouth breathing is an inviter of infection; anoint the lips and nostrils frequently with camphor vaseline, or Spirits of Camphor; use no sprays for the nose or throat containing alleged germ destroyers; gargle the throat with a little Listerine water; by so doing you do not kill your protective friends, the non-pathogenic Bacteria; these will get the best of Mr. Flu in due time; leave the nose alone; germ killing sprays, so-called, are useless and are a delusion; remember the “Flu” bacillus is enclosed in a spray-proof coat, almost as tough as Shark skin.

After being refitted and provisioned, these ships left Kronstadt in August, 1803, under the command of Captain Krusenstern, on a voyage of exploration around Cape Horn; they called at the Mendaña or Marquesa Islands, remained there four months, making investigation of the resources of this group; later the ships sailed for Hawaii, arriving on June 13, 1804; here also an intensive study was made of the people, products of the islands, harbors, fisheries, climate, etc.
