Vick's vap-O-Rub Salve is the in
vention of q North Carolina druggist,
and in the South is universally used,
IN place OF internal medicines, for all
forms OF cold troubles-from head
colds, asthmatic and catarrhal trou-
bles, down to deep chest colds, bron-
chitis or incipient pneumonia. Vap-O-
Rub comes in salve form, and is so
made that the body heat releases the
ingredients in the form OF vapors.
These vapors, inhaled with each
breath all night long, carry the medi-
cation direct to the affected parts.
In addition, Vap-O-Rub is absorbed
through and stimulates the skin, like
q poultice or a plaster, taking out the
tightness and soreness.

Slush Ice Doesn't
Affect Lights Here

Slush ice has SO seriously jammed
the big intake pipes of the York

such an extent during the last few
days as to actually impair the oper-
alton of the plant and the towns round
about which depend upon the down.
river generating station for their sup
ples OF electric lighting and power
current are suffering as a result. Roy
alton and Middletown have not been
lighted throughout all night for sew
eral nights.
Current is also supplied to the Har-
risburg Light and Power company for
furnishing light and motive power to
Harrisburg and most of the surr-
ounding towns, but the supply has not
been interfered with by the shut
down at York Haven because the To-
cal company has installed additional
boilers and other machinery to pro-
vide for just such an emergency. Dur
ing the early winter the local COM
pany was inconvenienced to some en-
tent one night by the slush ice at
York Haven because the new equip
ment at the local plant had not yet
been placed.

tanned? These are questions which
we have set out to answer.
White bread becomes white because
from the ground grain of wheat three
fourths of the mineral salts and col
loids, including the salts of calcium,
PHOSPHORUS, iron, potassium, chic
rine, fluorine, sulphur, magnesium,
manganese, etc, are removed. These
mineral substances are contained in
the brown outer skin, the cells under
meath this skin and the germ of the
wheat berry. They are sifted and
bolted out of the ground meal leaving
behind the white starchy cells and the
refined gluten of the interior part of
the berry.
Nature, in her most benevolent eff
forts to teach man that he cannot
trespass with impunity against the
laws of life, through thousands of
years of agricultural experience, has
failed TO impress him with the price
less value of these subtle substances
in the assembling of which for his
needs she travels through so many
subtle and divers paths.
In the whitening of -four not only
are the mineral salts and colloids
removed from the wheat, but it's fer
ments or vitamines, one of which was
discovered by NJ. Mege Mouries in the
inner cortical part of the wheat, are
rejected. The function of these fer
ments or vitamines is not fully under
stood, but as they are among the
elements of the wheat which man
thoughtlessly destroys we note them
here in passing.
The millers who make our flour as
sure us that they are comforting a
great blessing upon humanity in pre-
pairing a refined white product. To
obtain a still whittier whiteness they
even go so far as to bleach by an

Three times each day for S65 days
twenty million households in the
United States. This means that sixty
million meals, however simple, are
served for the pleasure and nutrition
of the family between the rising and
setting of every sun.
At each of these annual billions of
oCcasions-the exceptions are too few
10 count-21, 900, 900, 900, to be exact,
the housewife places one article of
food on the table. Whether that
table be set in a mansion or in a
hovel, whether it be loaded with an
abundance of the luKuries of life or
whether its contents be confined to
one or two simple articles of food,
there is one food always present.
Is it to be wondered at, therefore,
that bread is called the staff of
life?"
What then if the staff on which
humanity leans so trustingly be
broken?
The -four advertisements with
which the magazines are crowded tell
US peculiar and wonderful things
about flour. Millions of dollars are
spent annually to inform us that our
flour is washed, brushed, secured,
screened, and sifted through grits
gauze and silk boiling cloth until
nothing leaves the mill but utterly
perfect -four!
Millions of dollars are spent annual
| ly to exploit the virtues of anemic
crackers, denatured biscuits, and
! foodless cakes. Devoted mothers, be-
| lieving the statements made to them
through the highly colored printed
page and the gaudily decorated bill
board, rely with a profound faith
upon the demineraliZed nutriment
which advertising art extols. Their
| babes, from the very beginning, are
taught with a broken staff to walk.
Thus is reared q race of such vgor
that it sends in one year nearly 400,-
900 children under ten years of age
where white bread and starchy bis
cults are no longer needed.

OF INTEREST TO THE WOMEN

eralized -four which passes through
their silk bolting cloths.
To confront them with 1000 chill
dren under ten years of age who died
in the United States last year, not
withstanding the daily familiarity
with white breadstuffs which these
children suffered without resistance,
is but to provoke a smile fortified by
proofs" of the benovolence of their
conduct. These proofs" usually bear
the signature of scientists.
What scientists signatures can
open up those little graves and de-
liver back to the fond and empty arms
of grieving parents the million five
hundred thousand children that have
died in this country during the past
four years?
What will scientists signatures do
for the enfeebled soldiers who sur
vive the European war or for their
half-fed widows and orphans during
the reconstruction period that faces
them?
In the many public controversies
they have frankly admitted that they
do not give the people white flour or
white bread products through their
own choice. They say that because
the people think they want white
flour and white bread they are obliged
10 cater TO SuCn wants IneSe aullllS-
sions are nevertheless usually accom-
panied by a statement that white
bread as contrasted with bread made
from the whole grain possesses "supe-
rior digestibility."
Nothing is said of the alarming in
crease of cancer, diabetes, Bright's
disease, heart disease and hardening
of the arteries now causing so much
concern among life insurance COM
panies on account of the fact that
their chief victims are found in mid
die age.
Nothing is said about the fact that
at the age of forty, when man should
be at his best, and continuing until
his f1ftieth year the increase in these
diseases is at its height.
There is much evidence to indicate
that middle-age mortality is directly
associated with denatured food. All
of such evidence will be submitted
here in it's proper place.
OF course there are other causes
also at work in the production of
some of these increasingly prevalent
middle-age diseases but the facts,
which will be treated with sufficient
detail, indicate conclusively that de-
mineralized and refined food is chief
among these causes.

WHAT HAPPENED TO JANE
By Virginia Terhune Van de Water


September again. Perhaps not as
wonderful a month as the September
of n year ago, yet there were still
beautiful golden days; still pale moon
light nights.
Jane was we'll now. she declared.
and went softly about the house. doing
the trif1ing tasks that her mother
would allow her TO perform.
The Coming Visit
At last day came when Ezra re-
ceived a letter which he read to his
wife. He called her into the kitchen
and closed the door before imparting
to her the contents of the epistle.
This was only one of many letters
he had had from the same person, he
announced with an air of import
ance.
81 don't suppose you've guessed"
he said; who's been sending Jane
| those handsome flowers all this
| time"
Mrs. Hardy looked at him with
good-natured patronage.
Well, pa" she inquired, do you
think I'm a fool-Id like to know"
"Oh, so you guessed, did you?" he
! asked, astonished.
Guessed" she scoffed. mo,

"Welll you're wonder!" her hus-
band exclaimed. And l never told
you a thing about it,"
You didn't have to" she rejoined.
We'll, anyway, he's coming to see
her."
Let him GOMEZ" was the mothers
succinct comment. But we won't tell
her thing about It,"
1t. was toward the close of warm
afternoon that Edward Sanderson
came. Mrs, Hardy had so far disre-
garded Mr.. Evans suggestion that she
arranged matters to her own satisfac-
| tion. She had persuaded Jane to take
her book down to the sheltered porch
the little side veranda that could not
be seen from the road.
| But from where the girl sat could
be seen the orchard that sloped away
from the back of the house to the
bridge across the little brook in the
meadow. 1t was on this green stretch
that James gaze rested. now that she
was alone. Her book lay unheeded in
her lap.
Dream and Reality
Was it only year ago that she had
told Edward Sanderson good-by there
forever? Only a year! She closed
her eyes and saw again his face. She
had seen it thus in imagination a
thousand times lately. This was her
one happiness-to picture him as he
|
| There could be no harm in this now.
There was a step behind her, and
she turned her head.
There he stood in the doorway, his
eyes full of love, as they had been on
that day year ago when he and she
| had watched the sunset together. He
spoke her name softly, taking a quick
step toward her. She rose and stood
looking at him, whispering his name
over and over
| ''Ned!" she breathed. Ned"
But he did not answer, only held
his arms out to her.
And with happy little murmur of
love she went straight to him.
| In the kitchen two old people look
ed into each others faces with moist
eyes, but smiling lips
| THANK God!'' Ezra quavered.
There pa haven't l always told
you not to worry?' Mrs. Hardy said
tremulously. II always knew that
something very good would some
time happen to Jane. And, you see,
pat has!"
