resigned his commission as an army
flyer, has been appointed superin-
tendent OF the aerial mail service OF
the Postofhce Department. in charge
of operation and maintenance. and
takes his new office today.
Concerning the possibilities Of the
service, Captain LIpsner said: There
is no question as to the usefulness
OF the aerial mail service. as far as
the speed is concerned. 1 will, in
side OF a limited time, have flying
mail routes between points that will
actually save over two days compared
TO the rail service. OF course, two
days Is not saved between here and
New York, but that Is only a short
distance.
..r His Maxim.
The plan upon which Captain Lips
ner will develop the service is based
upon the maxim. DO one thing well
before attempting another task"
The captain said: II am going to
make the route between Washington
and Philadelphia an absolute success
before start any others. So far. II
has been a successful experiment"
Speaking about the personnel of the
future aerial stan. the captain said:
1T costs money to train aviators. and
many of the men over there have no
other profession than flying. These
men will be given posts in the aerial
man service when they return.
To Get Machines.
Under an act OF Congress, the War
Department Is instructed to turn over
to the PostofIice Department all n.y.
ing machines that have been made
unfit for war. This will help US
greatly. With a large number OF ma
chimes and a large number OF men
with which to man them, the extern
sive system OF aerial mail service Is
practically unlimited"
VoIcing his confidence and enthu-
slasm in the project. Captain Lipsner
sGid: 81 have utter confidence in the
future OF the aerial mail service.
Otherwise | would not have been per-
suaded to resign my commission in
the army: but the future success of
the mail service is certain.

SPANISH INFLUENzA- WHAT IT IS
AND HOW IT SHOULD Be TREATED
Nothing New Simply the Old Grip or La Grippe That
Was Epidemic in 1889-9O, Only Then It Game
From Russia by Way Of France and
This Time by Way of Spain
EXTERNAL APPLIcArIoNa


In order to stimulate the lining OF
the air passages to throw off the grippe
germs, to aid in loosening the phlegm
and keeping the air passages open, thus
making the breathing easier, Vick's
VapoRub will be found effective. Hot,
wet towels should be applied over the
throat, chest and back between the
shoulder blades to open the pores,
Then VapORub should be rubbed IN
over the parts until the skin is red,
spread on thickly and cover with two
thicknesses Of hot flannel cloths. Leave
the clothing loose around the neck, as
the heat Of the body liberates the in.
gradients in the form Of vapors.
These vapors, inhaled with each breath,
Gerry the medication directly to the
parts affected. At the same time
VapoRub is absorbed through and
stimulates the skin, attracting the
blood to the surface, and thus aids
In relieving the congestion within.
HOW TO AVOID THE DISEASE
Evidence seems to prove that this Is
germ disease, spread principally
by human contact, chiefly through
coughing, sneezing or splitting. So
avoid persons having colds-which
means avoiding crowds-common
drinking cups, roller towels, etc. Keep
up your bodily strength by plenty Of
exercise in the open air, and good food.
Above all, avoid colds, as colds lrrl-
tate the lining Of the air passages and
render them much better breeding
places for the germs.
KEEP FREE FROM COLDS
Use Vick's VapoRub at the very first
sign of cold. For a head cold, melt a
little VapoRub in spoon and inhale
the vapOrs, or better still, use Vap0-
Rub in benzoin steam kettle. If this
is not available, use an ordinary tea
kettle Fill half-full of boiling wa
ter, put in half teaspoon Of VapoRub
from time to time-keep the kettle
just slowly boiling and inhale the
steam arising.
Note-Vicks VapoRub is the dis.
covery of North Carolina druggist,
who found how to combine, in salve
form, MenthOl and Camphor with such
volatile oils as Eucalyptus, Thyme, Gu.
bebs, ETC., so that when the salve is ap.
piled to the body heat, these ingredl.
ents are liberated in the form Of va-
lpors.
VapoRub is comparatively new in
New York State and New England and
few Western states where 1t is just
now being introduced, but In other sec.
tlOns of the country 1t 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, VapoRub can be had in three
sizes at all druggists. It is particular
ly recommended for chlldren's Group
and colds, since 1t is externally applied
and therefore can be used as freely as
desired without the slightest harmful
effects.

NO OCCASION FOR PANIC

Spanish influenza, which appeared In
Spain in May, has all the appearances
Of grip, or la grippe, which has swept
over the world in numerous epidemics
as far back as history runs. Hippoc-
rates refers to an epidemic In 412
B. O., which is regarded by many to
have been influenza. Every century
has had its attacks. Beginning with
1881 this country has had five epidem-
les, the last in 18S9-90
There is no occasion for panic-infiu-
enza itself has very low percentage
Of fatalities-not over one death out
Of every 400 cases, according to the
N. @. board Of health. The chief danger
lies in complications arising, attack
ing principally patients in a rundown
cOndition-those who don't 60 to bed
soon enough or those who get up too
early.
THE SYMPTOMS
Grip, or Influenza, as 1t is now called,
usually begins with chill, followed by
aching, feverlshness, and sometimes
nausea and dizziness, and a general
feeling Of weakness and depression.
The temperature is from 100 to 104,
and the fever usually lasts from three
to five days. The germs attack the
mucous membrane or lining Of the air
passages, nose, throat and bronchial
tubes; there is usually hard cough,
especially bad at night; Oftentimes a
sore throat or tonsillltis, and frequently
all the appearances of severe head
cold.
THE TREATMENT
Go to bed at the first symptoms, not
only for your own sake, but to avoid
spreading the disease to others-take
II purgative, eat plenty Of nourishing
food, remain perfectly quiet and don't
worry. Quinine, aspirin or Dovers
Powders, etc, may be administered by
the physicians directions to relieve the
aching. But there Is no cure or spe-
cific for infuenza-the disease must
run its course. Nature herself 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 bodily
resistance that there is danger of pneu-
monia or bronchitis developing, and
sometimes Inflammation of the middle
ear, or heart affections. For these rea-
sons it is very 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 80 or not strong stay
in bed four days or more, according to
the severity Of the attack.
