Letters From the People

Tulsa, Okla, Oct 1s, 191s.-Editor
The World Regarding the high rent
demanded by tho owners OF rent
houses In tho city OF Tulsa, caA
truthfully state that this matter can
be stopped, and that by the city
council as this was done In La Jolla,
Cal, which is a suburb OF San Diego,
near Camp Kearney. houses in La
Jolla, (previous to the establishment
OF Camp kearney near there) had
been renting for 10, SIS and $40 per
month, three, four and five rooms
respectively, with the arrival OF sol
diers and officers, these same rent
lords, or grafters, raised the rent TO
$25 for three-room houses and up TO
SIS for five-room box house. The
matter was taken up by the citizens
and an ordinance was passed by the
city council making II a penalty to
charge more than per cent more
than they had been renting for. this
ordinance to last during the life OF
Cam Kearney. Why can't Tulsa do
likewise? ! came to Tulsa six weeks
ago and was forced TO pay S35 per
month for a thrce-room house. with

with which TO feed and clothe my

note from the morning issue that

charge made by the city OF $3.50 for
registering cars with the state tax.
Will YOU please advise through the
columns Of your paper II the $3.50
charge by the city actually covers the
cost Of registering the cars and sup

city has a high-powered man, who
should be released for war work.
Why make this compulsory? why

THE SYMPTOMS.

Grip, or influenza, as II is
now called, usually begins with
a chill followed by aching. fever
ishncss and sometimes nausea
and dizziness, and general
feeling Of weakness and depres-
sion. The temperature Is from
100 to 10i, 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 tuhes--there is usu-
ally a hard cough, especially bad
AT night, often times a sore
throat or tonsllitis, and fire.
Quently all the appearances OF
n severe head cold.

and stimulates tho skin, attract
ing the blood to the surface,
and thus aids in relieving the
congestion within.
NO OCCASION FOR PANIC.
There is no occasion for panic
influenza or grin 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 lics In compli-
cations arising, attacking prin-
cipally patiens in run down
condition--those who don't go
to bed soon enough. or those
who get up too early.
HOW TO AVOID THE
DISEASE.
Evidence seems to prove that
this Is n germ disease, spread
principally by human contact,
chiefly thru 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, keep free from
colds. avoid colds, as colds ir-
ritate the lining OF the air pas
saces and render them much
better breeding places for the
germs.
Use Nick's NapoRub at the
very first sign of a cold. For a
head cold melt little VapoRub
in a spoon and inhale the vap-
ors, or better still, use VapoRub
in a benzoin steam kettle. II
this Is not available, use an or
dinary tea-kettle. Fill half
fun 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 - Nick's VapoRub Is
the discovery OF a North Caro-
lima druggist. who found how
to combine. in salve form, Men
thol 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.
NapoRub can be had in three
sizes at all druggists. While
comparatively new in certain
parts Of the North, it is the
standard home remedy in the
South and West for all forms of
cold troubles-over six million
Jars were sold last year.
NapoRub 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.

THE TREATMENT.

Go to he'd at the first symp-
torns-take a purgative, eat
plcntyof nourishing food, remain
perfectly quiet and don't worry.
Nature herself is the only Cure"
for influenza and will throw off
the attack II only you conserve
your strength. A little quinino,
Asperin or Dover's Powders may
he given by the physicians
directions to allay the aching.
Always call a doctor, since the
chief danger of grip is in its
weakening effect on the sys.
tenn. which allows complications
to develop. These are chiefly
pneumonia or bronchitis, some
times inflammation Of the mid
die ear. or heart affections. For
these reasons, It is very import
ant that the patient remain in
bed until his strength returns
stay in he'd at least two days
or more after the fever has left
you. or II you are over so or not
strong, stay In bed four days or
more. according to the severity
OF the attack.
EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS.
In order to stimulate the lin
ing Of the air passages to throw
OFF the grip germs, to aid in
loosening the phlcCm and keep
ing the air passages open thus
making the breathing easier.
Nick's NapoRub 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 NapoRub should
he rubbed in over the parts until
the skin is red, spread on thick
ly and covered with two thick
nesses of hot flannel cloths.
Leave the clothing loose around
the neck as the heat Of the body
liberates the ingredients in the
form Of vapors. These vapors,
inhaled with each breath. carry
the medication directly to the
parts affected. At the same
time, NapoRub Is absorbed thru

a RISING POET.

In the constellation of the world S
poets Il new star appeared when OH
Friday evening. March 22nd, in the
chapel of the Va. Union University
II. II. Johnson, Jr., through the re
cital of his original poems, entertain
ed with magic art q large representa-
tive audience of this city.
Mr.. Johnson is from louisville,
Ky, at which place he finished COL
legc, and he is here pursuing course
in theology.
The Corey Lyceum of the Va
Union University having discovered
the brilliant literary talent that Mr.
Johnson possesses, arranged the above
mentioned recital for tn, purpose OF
placing him before the p'.blic
Mr.. Johnson promises to make a
rich contribution to the worlds litera
ture, and with his inspired message
garbed in dalectic and classic art
mould the thought, the ethical scnti
ment and the moral ideals of the peo
pies Of the world. He has a great
mind, great spirit and a great
message, but. like most poets he is
handicapped because Of his lack of
pecuniary resources which arc so very
necessary for the publication of his
works, for travel, and for the purpose
OF providing the necessities OF life. in
order that, having HIS mind freed
from these anXietics he may have the
opportunity for meditation, reflection
and study.
Having these advantages he would
be i'm a position to give to the world
the very best that is within him.
A patron Of means would be Of in
estimable value to Mr.. Johnson in
giving him financial support in his
initial efforts. Or if opportunities are
given him to give recitals he can in
that way realize the necessary funds
to prosecute this noble calling to a
glorious end.
