T. .-rs. "A Proclamation.
Since Jerusalem has been taken
from the Turks by the allied armies
there has been rejoicing throughout
the civilized world at the breaking
down of. the despotic power that so
long has ruled. the Holy Land to the
detriment of the rightful owners, the
Jews. Eut in order that the Jewish
people may enjoy the benefits of this
triumph they must first be put in a
position to help themselves. Thru
out the war.stricken districts of Eu-
rope and Asia Minor countless thous-
ands of them are suffering and dying
from want. All they ask is a chance.
Their more ? fortunately . situated
bro hers in, the United States have
come to their rescue, but find the
task too great: Confident in the gen
erocity and keen sense Of justice of
all true Americans, they have in turn
requested the cooperation Of those
not of their race and faith. The
Jews of our land have seldom asked
assistance in caring for the wants of
their needy, but themselves have al
ways come forward with liberal sub
scriptions to every worthy cause
brought to their attention, and In the
national. crisis have given freely Of
men, money, and moral support to the
winning of the war. We can best
show our appreciation of their ef-
forts by helping to- alleviate the suf-
ferings of those Of their race in this,
their hour of direst need.
To expedite the raising of funds in
this humanitarian cause. l do hereby
designate Wednesday. October %, as
Jewish elief Day in North Dakota,
and urge our people to contribute lib
orally to- this fund for the sufferers
in war-town Palestine and Europe. T.

sorbed through and stimulates
the skin, attracting the blood to
the surface, and thus aids in re-
lieving the congestion within.
NO OCCASION FOR PANIC
There is no occasion for panic
influenza or grip has a very
low percentage of fatalities
not over one death out Of every
four hundred cases, according to
the N C. Board OF Health. The
chief danger lies in complica-
lions arising, attacking prin-
cipally, patients in a run down
condition-those who don't 60
to bed soon enough, or those
who get up too early.
HOW TO AVOID THE DISEASE
Evidence seems to prove that
this is germ disease, spread
principally by human contact,
chiefly through coughing, sneez-
ing or splitting: So avoid per-
sons having colds, which means
avoiding crowds-commOn drink
ing 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
irritate the lining of the air
passages and render them much
better breeding places for the
germs.
KEEP FREE FROM COLDS
Use vick's Vapo-Rub at the
very first sign of a cold. For a
head cold, melt little Vapo-Rub
in a spoon and inhale the vapors,
or better still, use Vapo-Rub in
a behZOin steam kettle. If this
is not available, use an ordinary
tea-kettle. Fill half-full of boil
ing water. put in half a teaspoon
Of VapO-Rub from time to time
keep the kettle just slowly
boiling and inhale the steam
arising.
NOTE-Vick's Vapo-Rub is the
discovery of North Carolina
druggist. who found how to COM
bine, in salve form, Menthol and
Camphor with such volatile oils
as Eucalyptus, Thyme, Cubebs,
etc, so that when the salve is
applied to the body heat, these
ingredients are liberated in the
form Of vapors. Vapo-Rub can
be had in three sizes at all drug
gists. While comparatively new
in certain parts of the North, 1t
is the standard home remedy in
the South and West for all forms
of cold troubles-7over six mil
lions jars were sold last year
Vapo-Rub is particularly recon-
mended for children's Group or
colds, as it is externally applied
and can, therefore, be used free
ly and often without the slight
est harmful effects.

~ 's~ THE SYMPTOMS
Grip, or Influenza as it is now
called, usually begins with a
. chill followed by aching, fever
ishness and sometimes nausea
and dizziness, and a general feel
ing of weakness and depression.
The temperature is from 100 to
1O4, and the fever usually lasts
from three to fiyea days. The
germs attack the mucous men,
brane, or lining Of the air pass
ages-nose, throat, and bron-
chial tubes-there is usually a
hard cough, especially bad at
night, often times sore throat
or tonsilitis, and frequently all
the appearances of severe head
cold. n .t.7. av.c p.
THE TREATMENT
Go to- bed at the first. symp-
toms - take a, +,purgatiye, eat
plenty of nourishing food, re-
main perfectly quiet and don't
worry. Nature herself is the
only cure" for influenza and
will throw off the attack if only
you conserve your strength. A
~ little Quinine, Asperin or Dow
er's Powders may be given by
the physicians directions to al
lay the aching, Always call a
doctor, since. the chief danger
of grip is in its weakening eff
feet on the system, which allows
complications to develop. These
are chiefly pneumonia and bron-
chitis, sometimes inflammation of
the middle ear, or heart affec-
lions. For these reasons, it is
very important that the patient
remain IN bed until: his strength
Z returns-stay in bed at least two
J. days or more after the fever
has left you. or If You are over
. so or not strong, stay in bed
four days or more, according to
the severity of the attack. EN
EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS
In order to stimulate the lin
ing of the air passages to throw
off the grip germs, to aid in
loosening the phlegm and keep
ing the air passages open. thus
making the breathing easier,
vick's Vapo-Rub 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
Vapo-Rub, should be rubbed in
over the parts until the skin is
red, spread on thickly and COW
cred with two thicknesses of hot
flannel cloths. Leave the cloth
ing 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, carry the medication di-
rectly to the parts affected. At
the same, time, Vapo-Rub is abb

 LONDON, May 14.-In an at- tack along mile front near Nor lancourt the Germans penetrated the British positions at one place. Field Marshal Haiq reports to- night that at all other points on this line the Germans were re- pulsed with heavy losses and that the Australians later reca ptured the lost position.
 The statement says:
 This morning after heavy ar tIliery preparation, the enemy att tackled on front of nearly mile southwest of Morlancourt and succeeded at one point in enter ing our positions. At all other points the attack was repuIsed with heavy loss to him, and in this one locality an immediate counter attack by Australian troops drove out the enemy and completely re- established our line.
 We captured over 50 prisoners and our casualties were light.
 Local fighting occurred last night north of kemmel, where the enemy attacked in the direction of kleine vierstraat and was re- pulsed by the French troops.

BEAULIEU, France, May H. James Gordon Bennett proprietor of the New York Herald, died at 5:SO o'clock this morning after having been unconscious for two days.
 MT Bennetts last words before re- lapsing into inconsistencies were in relation to his newspaper interests.
 Mrs. Bennett was with her hus- band when he died.
 Dispatches from France early this month reported MT. Bennett was so se- riously ill that his condition was giv- ing cause for anxiety. He had been for some months at his villa at Beau lieu in the Rivera, after an illness, and advices from Nice at this time announced that he had had a relapse.
 The French government, through Armand Bernard. prefect of Apes Maritimes, conveyed it's condolences to Mrs. Bennett. The Paris evening papers comment warmly in their edl- tOrial columns on MT.

 One of the witnesses. Edgar A. Holmes of New York, testified that he had been informed by James H. Cross ley that the rifles had been smuggled from Krupp works at Essen and would be used in an effort to "Germanize" the United States if the Germans should capture the channel ports.
 Gustave Lussing, who was born in Schleswig- Holstein and was natural ized thirty years ago, was mentioned most often in the testimony. Most of the witnesses testified that he tried to sell the rifles, but one asserted that he had tried to buy 250,000. Lussing was at the hearing under subpoena. It is understood he will testify later.
 Principals Unknown
 Special efforts were made by Deputy Attorney General Becker to learn the names of Lussing's principals. Will liam H. Ford of New York, lawyer for Lussing, said that Lussing had with held the names of the principals at all times.
