SPANISH INFLUENZA WAY
TO treat IT And TO AVOID IT

or if you are over so or not strong,
stay in bed four days or more, accord
ing to the severity of the attack.
HOW TO AVOID THE DISEASE
Evidence seems to prove that this Is
germ disease, spread principally by
human contact, chiefly through cough
ing, sneezing or splitting. So avoid per
sons having colds-whieh means avoid
ing crowds-commoI drinking cups,
roller towels, etc. Keep up your
bodily strength by plenty of exercise
in the open air, and good food.
KEEP FREE FROM COLDS
Above all, avoid colds, as colds irri
tate the lining of the air passages and
render them much better breeding
places for the germs. Use Wick s Vapo
Rub at the very first sign of a cold
For head, cold, melt little Vapo
Rub in a spoon and inhale the vapors
or better still, use Vapo-Rub in ben
zoin steam kettle. If this is not avail
able, use an ordinary tea kettle. FIJI
half full of boiling water. put In hal
a teaspoon of Vapo-Rub from time t
time-keep the kettle just slowly boil
ling and inhale the steam arising,

covery of North Carolina druggist
who found how to combine, in salv
. form, Menthol and Camphcr with sue
volatile oils las Eucalyptus, Thym,
Cubebs, ETC., SO that when the salve
applied to the body heat, these ing'
dents are liberated in the form OF VI
pors. Vapo-Rub can be had in thre
sizes at all druggists. While compari

it is the standard home remedy in tn

troubles-over six million jars wei

: ly recommended for children's crou
or colds, as it is externally apphe
and can, therefore, be used freely an

Simply the Old Fashioned Grip Mas
Querading Under q New
Name

Spanish influenza, which appeared in
Spain in May, has all the appearance
of grip or la grippe, whiea has swept
over the world in numerous epidemics
as far back as history runs. Hippo
crates refers to an epidemic in Az B.
c., which is regarded by many to have
been influenza. Every century has had
its attacks. Beginning with 1884, this
country has had five epidemics, the
last in 1889-90.
There is no occasion for ,panic-in.
fIuenza or grip has very low per
eentage of fatalities-Rot over one
death out of every four hundred cases,
according to the N. c, Board Of Health
The chief danger lies in complications
arising, attacking principally patients
in a run down condition--those who
don t 90 to bed soon enough, or those
whe get up too early.
THE TREATMENT
Go to bed at tlA first symptoms,
not only for your own sake but to
avoid spreading the disease to others
take purgative, eat plenty of nourish.
ing food, remain perfectly quiet and
don't worry. Nature herself is the on
" "cure" for influenza and will throw
OFF the attack if only you conserve
your strength. A little Quinine, Aspir
in or Dover 8 Powder may be given BY
the physician s directions to allay the
aching. Always call physician, since
the chief danger of grip is IN its weak
ening effect on the system, which al
lows complications to develop. Thes'
are chiefly pneumonia and bronchitis
sometimes inflammation Of the middle
ear, or heart affections. For these rea
sons it is very important that tn,
patient remain in bed until his strength
returns-stay in bed at least two day
or more after the fever has left you

An Attempt at Car Stealing


Last evening some time after 1920
an attempt was made to steal the
Roy Greene Ford which was parked
in front of the Guy Smith home on
N. Third street. The thieves had
coasted down until they reached Su-
perior Street, near the Ed. D. Brad
ley home and in trying to turn onto
the straight road found they could
not get the engine started as yale
lock prevented them from doing so.
After trying in every way to make a
go of it the car was finally abandoned
in the middle Of the road where Mr..
Greene found it later. Mr.. Thief had
better watch his step or he will be
doing a quick step to the count of
one, two, three, four.

visited numerous stores purchasing
