SPECIAL BOOKLETS ON SPANISH
INFLUENZA.
We will send, on request, to any re-
tail druggist, 100 or more little book
let's, Just issued, on Spanish Influenza,
giving the latest information about
this disease-its history-the symp-
toms--the treatment and particularly
the use Of vick's vapoRub ms an ex-
ternal application to supplement the
physicians treatment.
NEW WAYS TO USE vAPoRUB.
In addition to the usual method Of
using VapoRub-that Is. applied over
the throat and chest and covered with
hot flannel cloths--our customers are
writing us daily telling Of their sue
cess in using vapoRub In other ways,
particularly as preventive. They
melt little in n spoon and inhale the
vapors arising, or melt II In benzOln
steam kettle. Where the steam kettle
Is not available, vapoRub can be used
In an ordinary teakettle. Fill the tea
kettle half full Of boiling water, put In
half teaspoon of vapoRub from time
to tlme-keep the kettle just slowly
boiling and inhale the steam arising.
According to Bulletin just issued
by the Public Health Service, DR..
Stiles recommends that the nose and
throat he kept coated with some oily
substance. For this purpose vap0Rub
is excellent-just put little up the
nOstrils from time to time and snuff
well back into the air passages.

1S.--The record, Of submarine activ-
ity for the, summer months. June, ou-
" and August. the period m~ostifavor-
able to submarines, is now PRACTICAL
~ made up and shows two highly sat
isfactory results: a. steady fall in the
Allied shipping sunk and a steady
rise in the submarines destroyed.
This summer period has also COW
cred the tremendous arrivals and is
equally satisfactory, not one of the
incoming troop ships lost and every
soldier landed. Such losses as have
occurred have been on outgoing ships
mainly freighters going back with lit
tie or no cargo.
AS the American naval convoy SER
vice has borne the brunt Of this pro-
lection, the results achieved for the
first summer are a notable tribute to
the American fleet.
The record Of tonnage losses for
the summer will be close around &c.,
900 tons, or about $4,000 tons less
than the monthly losses at the oening
Of the year and 100000 ton less than
