EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS

In order to stimulate the lining

Leave the clothing loose around the

HOW TO AVOID THE DISEASE
Evidence seems to prove that tbis
is germ disease, spread princina lie.
py human contact, chiefly thri,
coughing, sneezing or splitting. So
avoid persons having coIds-wbicb h
means avoiding crowds-common
drlnking cups, roller towels etc
Keep up your bodily strength hv
plenty of exercise in the omen air
and good food. Above all, keen
from colds, as colds irritate tho lin,
ing OF the air passages and render
mem much better breeding places
for the germs.
Use Vick's VapoRub at the very
hrst sign of a cold. For n head
cold, melt a little VapoRub in a
spoon and inhale the vapors, or
better still, use VapoRub in a ben
zoin steam kettle. If this is not
available. use an ordinary tea-kettIe.
Fill half-full of boiling water. put
in half teaspoon of VapoRub from
time to time-keep the kettle lust
SLOWLY boiling and inhale the steam
arising.
NOTE. Vick's VapoRub is the
discovery OF North Carolina drug
gist, who found how to combine. 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 is comparatively new in
New York State and New England
and a few Western States where Il
is just now being introduced, but
in other sections of the country II
is the standard home remedy in
more than million homes for all
forms of cold troubles. Over six
million Jars were sold last year. II
Is particularly recommended for
children's Group or colds, since Il is
externally applied and therefore can
be used as freely as desired without
the slightest harmful effects. Vapo-
Rub can be had in three sizes al

NO OCCASION FOR PANIC

NJ OCCASION FOR PANIC
spanish influenza, which appeared
in Spain in May, has all the appear
ance of grip or la grippe, which has
swept over the world in numerous
cpidemics as far back as history
runs Hippocrates refers to an epi-
demic in 412 B. G. which is regarded
hy many to have been influenza.
Every century has had it's attacks.
Beginning with 1881, this country
has had five epidemics, the last in
1SS9-9O.
There is no occasion for panic
influenza itself has a very low per-
centage 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
complications arising, attacking prin-
Cipally, patients in run down con-
dition-those who don't go to bed
soon enough, or those who get up
too early.
THE SYMPTOMS
Grippe, or influenza as it is now
called, usually begins with a chill
followed by'aching. feverlshness and
sometimes nausea and dizziness, and
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 mucuous mem
brane, or lining of the air passages
nose, throat and bronchial tubes
there is usually n hard cough,
especially bad at night. often times
Il sore throat or tonsilitis. and fire.
quently all the appearances of a
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 a purgative, eat plenty
of nourshing food. remain perfectly
quiet and don't worry. Quinine.
aspirin or Dover's Powder. etc, may
he administered by the physician's
directions to relieve the aching.
But there Is no cure or specific for
infiunza-.he disease must run Its
course. Nature will throw off the
attack II only you keep up your
strength. The chief danger lies
in the complications which may
nrise, Influenza so weakens the
bodily resistance that there is dan
ger of pneumonia or bronchitis de-
veloping, and sometimes infiamma-
ton of the middle ear, or heart
affections. For these reasons. 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 IL you are over SO or
not strong, stay in bed four days
or more, according to the severity of
the attack.

IsmaiI Pasha Didn't Want to Take Any
Painful Chances.
To illustrate oriental habits Of
thought Lord Cromer tells In the Quar-
terly Review this story Of Ismail Pasha,
khedive Of Egypt. 1t once happened
that Ismail was suffering from tooth
ache. He sent for European dentist,
who told him that he ought to have the
tooth out. Ismail said that he was
afraid 1t would be very painful. He
was informed In reply that If he would
allow the dentist to administer laugh
ing gas to him he would feel nothing.
He still doubted, but told the dentist
to bring his apparatus to the palace.
The dentist complied and explained
the process to the khedive. Ismail then
summoned an attendant and told him
to send up the sentry who was at his
door.
When the man arrived the khedive
ordered him to sit down in chair and
requested the dentist to take out
tooth on either side of his jaw. Ismail
then asked the man whether he had
felt anything, and the man told him
that he had not But Ismail was not
yet satisfied. He said that the sentry
was young, strong man and that he
would like to see the experiment tried
on some one of weaker physique.
Accordingly he summoned slave
girl dhd had the dentist extract two Of
her teeth. Finding that she did not
show evidence Of extreme suffering, he
then consented to have his own tooth
out,

About the Puritans.

In the American Magazine William
Roscoe Thayer says:
1T is the fashion of late to speak
condescendingly Of the Puritans as Of
a people Of narrow views and of men
of sour temperament, but no descend
ant of theirs and no later immigrant
who now dwells in the commonwealth
they founded and enjoys the blessings
which 1t bestows upon us will fail to
glory In being able to trace back to
such forerunners. The story Of the
conditions which faced the passengers
Of the Mayfower when they landed at
Plymouth can never be too often re-
peated. To have as founders Of our
state men and women who had the
fear Of God In their hearts, but feared
the face of no man. ranks as the ini-
tial glory of Massachusetts,"
