THE MILITARY REASONS.

It is declared by the Cologne Ga zette that only military reasons could compel Germany to accept the terms of President Wilson, but as time goes along it cannot help being realized that those necessary military reasons are being provided and that 1t is only question of time when Germany is going to indicate it's acceptance of the terms, unconditionally surrender and bring the war to an end. This will not be because it wants to. Far from it, but it will be because it has been forced to accept the inevitable.
 Each days gains on the part of the forces guided by General Foch make it evident that there is going to be no letup in the pressure which is be- ing brought to bear against the Teu- tens. They know it. They realize it not cnly in the fatheriand, in the armies at the front but in the high command. The German war machine is being driven back over a wide stretch of territory badly out of condition. No opportunity is being allowed to repair it and none will be. The forced re- treat is shortening the line which must be defended but that is operat- ing equally as favorsbly to the allies as to the enemy. Strong defensive points are being lost in rapid success sion while the confusion that is being caused by the hurried pulling up of stakes and the conditions not only back of the lines but at home are in creasing the discouragement, Added to this is the. uncertainty among it's allies. One has gone and the others are webbing badly. Everything points to the fact that Germany has run it's course. The military reasons for ac- cepting Wilson's terms are increasing at a rapid rate, too fast in fact for German comfort.

THE LOAN MUST SUCCEED.

If there are those who have re- trained from participating in the fourth Liberty loan because they have gotten the idea that peace is not far away and the money asked for it is not going to be needed. they ought to get much valuable enlightenment to the contrary by the statement which Is made by Secretary McAdoo to the effect that whether there is peace or not the entire amount of this loan Is going to be required and it is prob able that there will be a fifth and a sixth loan.
 This doesn't indicate that there is any reason whatsoever for the belief that the money sought is not going to be needed. but on the other hand it makes it apparent that it is needed now and more is going to be required. Because the allied nations have ob- tained an advantage does not mean that the end is near at hand and it does not mean that the expenses of the government for war purposes are going to immediately stop. The fact is that there can be no letting up in the war activities. They must go for ward with more determination than ever. The expenses are bound to continue until the forces are demobil- zed and that cannot be done in min ute or a month after the war ends, while there are other programmes be- ing carried out which will require one to several years to complete.
 The one and only thing to do un- der the circumstances therefore is to give the utmost support to the loan Put up your dollars against the fight ing spirit of the oversea forces. The time Is rapidly drawing to a close ir which to subscribe bV there should be the strongest determination to win Get vour dollars to fphtinp

ROLLING UP THE ADVANTAGE.

Every day is sending the allied forces far ahead along the northern part of the western front and putting them Into possession not only of ter ritory which has been held by the enemy since the early days of the war but of some Of the strong defense points which the German high com mand had figured on holding against the assaults of the British. French, Americans and Belgians.
 The abandonment of the western end Of Belgium has been foreca sted for some time by the strategic moves which have been made by General Foch. Each day has seen appreciable advances but by the capture of the fortress of Lille and the clearing of the region 10 the north of that point Of the enemy means that the German retirement is being pushed with marked rapiditv.
 Just where the enemy is plannins Co stop. or whether 1t is daring to ar- range for definite holding of an, particular line. is a question which ever he must be uncertain about. The present movement of the allies is sucf that the Huns cannot plan on stopping before the Scheldt is reached and tn, sending of the German vessels at Ant, werp to Holland ports for internment and the statement which has beer made that it will not be many day, before Brussels is evacuated give tn, impression that the retreat is bein, planned on an extensive scale.
 General Foch intends to keep then going. inficting what damage he cal upon the war machine as 1t is bednj moved in its broken condition and n small help has been given to this re treat by the success which has beeI obtained by the American drive u the Mouse. That has broken defense which make it decidedly dangerous fo he Germans to think of holding thei main forces to the west of that rtvel

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 50 or not strong. stay in bed four days or more according to the severity of the attack.
 EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS
 In order to stimulate the lining of the air passages to throw off the grip germs, to aid in loosening the phlegm and keeping the air passages open, thus making the breathing easier, Vick's VapoRub will be found ef- fective. 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 cov- cred with two thicknesses of hot flannel cloths. Leave the clothing loose around the neck as the heat of the body hberates the ingredients in the form of vapors. These vapors, in- haled with each breath, carry the medication directly to the parts af- fected. At the same time, VapoRub is absorbed through and stimulates the skin, attracting the blood to the
 
 congestion within.
 HOW TO AVOID THE DISEASE
 Evidence seems to prove that this is a germ disease, spread principally by human contact. chiefly through cough ing Ssneezing 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, keep free from colds, as colds ir- ritate the lining of the air passages and render them much better breeding places for the germs.
 Use Ficll's VapoRub at the first sign of q cold. or a head cold, melt lit. tie in spoon and inhale the vapors, or better still. use VapoRub in ben- zoin steam kettle. If this is not available, use an ordinary tea~kettle, Fill half full of boiling water, put in half a teaspoon of VapoRub from time to time-keep the kettle just slowly boiling and inhale the steam arising.
 NOTE: vick's vapoRuh is the dis- covery of a North Carolina druggist, who found how to combine in salve form Menthoi and Camphor with such essential oils as Eucalyptus. Thyme, Cuhebs, etc. so that when the salva is applied to the body heat these in- ingredients are liberated in the form of vapofs.
 ,VapoRub is comparatively new in New York, New England and a few western states, where it Is just now being introduced. In other sections of the country however it is the standard home remedy in over a mil lion homes for all forms of cold troubles-more than six million jars were sold last year.
 It is particularly recommended for childrens croup or colds. since 1t 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-Seo 60c, $1.20, at all druggists

 Spanish Influenza which appeared in Spain in May has all the appearance of grip or La grippe, which has swept over the world in numerous epidemics as far back as history runs. Hippo crates refers to an epidemic in 412 B.. C. which is regarded by many to have been influenza. Every century has had its attacks. Beginning with 1881, this country has had five epidemics, the last in 1SSG-90.
 THE SYMPTOMS
 Grip, or influenza as it is now called, usually begins with a chill followed by aching, feverishness and sometimes nausea and dizziness, and a general feeling of weakness and depression.
 
 and the fever usually lasts from three to five days. The germs attack the mucous membrane, or lining of the air passage ages-nose. throat and bronchial tubes-there is usually a hard cough, especially bad at night; often times a sore throat or tonsilitis, and ire 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 purgative, eat plenty of nourishing food, remain perfectly quiet and don't worry. Quinine, aspirin or Dover's S Powder etc. may be administered by the physicians directions to relieve the aching. But there is no cure or specific for influenza the disease must run hs course, but 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 pneumonia or bronchitis developing and sometimes inflammation Of the middle ear or heart actions. Fol these reasons, it is very important
