HOW TO USE yAPORUB IN TREAT
a., ING SPANISH INFLUENZA
In every case call a physician
VapoRub should only be used lin con-
nection with the PHYSICIANS internal
treatment. -,ris.s. NJ; -
Apply hot wet cloths over the throat
chest and back between the shoulder
blades to open the pores. Dry lightly
and rub vapoRub we'll in until the
skin is red--spread on thickly and
cover with hot flannel cloths Leave
the bed covering loose around the
neck, as the body heat releases the
ingredients in the form Of vapors.
These vapors, inhaled with each breath
stimulate the lining Of the air pas
.Sages to throw off the Influenza
germ. In case of head or chest cold,
the vapors tend to keep the air pass
ages open, loosen the phlegm and
make the breathing easier. In addi-
ton, VapoRub is absorbed through
and stimulates the skin, attracting
the blood to the surface, and thus aids
in relieving the congestion within.
HOW TO USE yICK'S' VAPORUB AS
A PREVENTIVE
It is questionable If there is any
thing which will prevent Spanish In
fiuenza, except avoiding those persons
who are spreading the disease by
coughing, sneezing and splitting, and
BY keeping up the bodily resistance
by plenty of good food and exercise in
the open air. The Public Health Ser
vice recommends that the nasal pass
ages be coated with weak solution
of Menthol in liquid, petroleum as a
protective. For this purpose Vapo-
Rub is excellent. Just put q small
portion up each nostril from time to
time during the day and snuff we'll
back into the head.
KEEP FREE FROM COLDS BY IN.
K HALING VAPORUB
Colds irritate the lining of the. air
passages and thus render them much
better breeding place for the germs.
At the first signs of cold use Vapo-
Rub at once Melt a little in spoon
and inhale the vapors arising, or
vapoRub can be used in a regular
benzoin steam kettle, such as most
druggists carry in stock. II this is
not available, very good substitute
to use is an ordinary tea kettle. Fill
half-full TO boiling water-put in half
a teaspoon of VapoRub from time to
tin1e-keep the kettle just slowly boil
ing and inhale the steam arising.

DRIVE ON!

There's philosophic view to take of passing
world events.
Originally governments all were small. Then
the strong gobbled the weak ones and despotisms
grew and festered ignorance.
Education fostered aspirations for freedom and
republics began to appear. 49,.
Now republics are rising on the wrecks of the
last absolutsms. Freedom is being reborn.
Through the tempest of war the world has
sailed nearer to the federation of man.
The war made it appear that the world was
growing worse ..
Peace shows that really the world was growing
better. -
The growing pains were sharp. Real growth
must be the reward.

NOT VENGEANCE-JUSTIC

Geraldine Irving in the Chicago
Tribune-Unless Germany is punished
and every leader and doer Of those
iendish barbarities publicly executed
or worse, the moral fiber of the whole
world will go to pieces. Are our boys
and little children to realize that men
may ravish, torture and kill women,
stick bayonets through babies, stand
old people up against a wall to be
shot, and then go free with no justice
done? No! The result would be un-
speakable. Let us not get any maud
lin ideas about mercy, etc. Mercy
according to the ten commandments
is with them that love me and keep
my commandments" Does that mean
the Germans? We don't want ven
geance; that belongs to the Lord. He
car attend to that, when the Hun
meets him face to face; hut we want
justice. Let us pray for wisdom that
we may mete III justice that right.
eousness may be upheld on the earth.

PUBLIC ROAD BUILDING

A circular recently issued by the

to the fact that no permits or licenses
will be required by the board for pub
lie improvements and state pavements
when expressly approved in writing by
the United States Highways Council.
The Highways Council calls this state
ment to the attention of state, county,
and city officials, some Of whom have
shown confusion as to what federal
approval is necessary for this class of
construction work.
More than 5000 applications for APP
prevail of highway projects have been
received by the council.
The United States Employment Ser

bership of the council. The other fed.

riculture.
Programs OF work in construction
of streets and highways for 1919 be-
ing made up under the supervision OF
state highway departments are to be
submitted to the council on or before
December 10, 1918.
In response to queries from local
officials the Highways Council recent,
ly has made the following rulings:
The council does not exercise juris
diction over sidewalk construction.
Construction work, whether it costs
more or less than $4,000. should be
submitted u 1t involves any of the

AM ENABLE ONLY TO FORCE

Lieut.. Coningsby Dawson in the Red
Cross M~agazine-It seems to me that
the German is incorrigible. He was
born a boor and he can never respond
to courtesy. Kindness and mercy are
lost upon him; he accepts them as his
right and becomes domineering. If
any peacemaker thinks that Christian
forbearance and magnanimity will
make for a new brotherhood when
peace terms are formulated, he is vast.
ly mistaken. The German is a bully
and the only leadership that he &C
knowledges and the only righteous
ross to which he bows, is the leader
ship and the armed force of a person
stronger than himself. Sentimental
l~eniency on the part of the allies will
only make him swell out his chest
afresh.
