the first indication of approaching

Just as the perplexed reporter of
fashions is about to begin to describe
some fetching new fur garment as a
cape, she discovers that 1t has an in
disputable claim to be called a scarf.
And when she has decided that it be-
longs to the Straightforward, upright
and downright scarf family, she finds
1t cOnsorting with a belt, something
scarfs and capes have heretofore not
done. Eccentric and interesting
these are the terms that belong to the
small fur garments that have lent a
willing ear TO tales of alluring camou-
fiage this season. They look like so
many things we finally have to call
them by the most indefinite of terms
merely garments"-they are that any
way.
Here is one of them which is a cape
so far as the back and shoulders are
concerned, a scarf so far as the front
goes, and a jacket, If we take the

Hardly one Of them but has two kinds

The little fur wrap shown in the

EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS

In order to stimulate the lining of
the air passages to throw OF the grippe
germs, to aid in loosening the phlegm
and keeping the air passages open, thus
making the breathing easier, Vick'S
VapoRub viii be found effective. 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 cover with two
thicknesses OF hot flannel cloths. Leave
the clothing 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 directly to the
parts affected. At the same time
VapoRub is absorbed through and
stimulates the skin, attracting the
blood to the surface, and thus aids
in relieving the congestion within.
HOW TO AVOID THE DISEASE
Evidence seems to prove that this is
germ disease, spread principally
by human contact, chiefly through
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, avoid colds, as colds irri-
tate the lining OF the air passages and
render them much better breeding
places for the germs.
KEEP FREE FROM COLDS
Use Vfck's VapoRub at the very first
sign Of a cold. For head cold. melt a
little VapoRub in a spoon and inhale
the vapors, or better still, use Vapo-
Rub in a benzoin steam kettle. IF this
is not available, use an ordinary tea
kettle. Fill half-fuIl Of boiling wa
| ter, put in half teaspoon of VapoRub
| from time to time-keep the kettle
/ just slowly boiling and inhale the
steam arising.
Note-Vick's VapoRub is the dis
covery of a North Carolina druggist.
who found how to combine, in salve
form, Menthol and Camphor With such
volatile oils as Eucalyptus, Thyme. Gu
bebS, etc, so that when the Salve is ap-
piled to the body heat, these ingredi-
ents are liberated in the form OF va
pors.
VapoRub is comparatively new in
New York State and New England and
a few Western states where it is just
now being introduced, but in other sec
tons of the country it is the standard
home remedy in more than a million
homes for all forms of cold troubles.
Over six million jars were sold last
year. VapoRub can be had in three
sizes at all druggists. 1t is particular
ly recommended for children's Group
and colds, since it is externally applied
and therefore can be used as freely as
desired without the slightest harmful
effects.

Get New Kidneys !

The kidneys are the most overworked
organs of the human body, and when they

cotton an acre on cut-Over land brOk-
