out in Iowa the Y. NJ. c. A. and
Y W. G. A. appeal strongest TO the
people for support but We should re-
member that there are twice rs many
in Iowa and that s00. 900 Of them are
Jews. Their $40 bill will be divided
s5.S7 with the Y NJ. C. A. and eighty
eight cents with the Y, w. c. 4. -rhile
only twenty cents goes to their own
war work just the same. And then
when we get TO the Irish and Italian
sections of the city Of Boston we will
find more catholics then there are
people in a half dozen counties in Iowa
and there the catholics out Of every
$40 bill contributed will retain only
sl.77 for their X. c. society and give
up 1857 for the Y. NJ. c. A. 20 cents
for the Jews. etc.
This is a vast nation. The president
sits I'D OF top of it looking down upon
many. many kinds of p eople and the
panorama Of all sections of so great
a country prompted him 10 order a
union war work campaign. He could
see 81. loo. 900 protestants in the United
states because he is one Of them. but
he could also see 1000. 900 catholics
and 2,N4S.7S2 Jews. All of these people
are to put their war work contribu-
tons into a common fund as all have
put their sons into a common army,
but each society is TO administer its
own share of the fund in its own way.
VI the seven sOtlttlts an hAN AhS NhNiA-
olics and Jews may be fairly classed as
Christian societies of some protestant
faith which would in fact divide the
contributors $40 bill all TO protestant
war work except sl97 to the catholics
and Jews combined.
The division of the fund was not ar
rived at in any such way nor was the
relative strength of the various rel-
gions considered. Each Of the seven
societies vas asked 10 make up a
budget for the years war work and
submit it for the approval Of the pres
idents war board The budgets were
approved almost without change and
each was allotted the amount that its
managers estimated would he needed
When combined il made a budget %
sI70. 500. OO0. Of which the Y. NJ. c. A.
gets 800. 900. 900. The budgets. how
ever. were made when the war depart
ment planned to put only 100000 men
in France. Later the war department
decided to send 100000 overseas and
the war work societies must appeal for
an abundant over subscription or come
back for more funds before the year
is done.

Billy Bunny and His Friends

I When you first came out last year.
And ! bought you a second time b'
cause
knew had nothing>to fear.
And when you came a third time round
l bought some more OF you,
And now that you've come again this
fall
I'll show what can do"
shouted Uncle Lucky from the seat OF
the Luckymobile. And then all the little
bunny people gathered around and the
old gentleman rabbit made a speech
and pretty soon everybody in Rabbit
vile went into Uncle Lucky's bank and
bought bonds. And when they came
out they all had smiles on their faces
and buttons on their coats!
Well after that, the two little rabbits
started off for home. and by and by,
after n while, they came to a little house
by the roadside. And there, right in
front Of the gate. stood little pig. He
had on pair Of khaki pants and a
KHAKI! shirt, and was playing a drum
as hard as he could.
What are you doing?" asked the old
gentleman rabbit after he had given
the little pig a carrot cent.
"Oh. I'm just learning to be a drum
mer boy" he said. and then he began
to sing:
Yankee Doodle. doodle dandy.
Loves plum cake and apple candy,
But you ought to hear him play
over the hills and far away
over me sea to France
That's where I'll go as soon as I grow
Big enough TO wear long pants"

EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS.
In order to stimulate the lining OF
the air passages to throw on the grippe
germs, to aid in loosening the phlegm
and keeping the air passages open,
thus making the breathing easier.
vick's vapoRub 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
VapoRub should be rubbed in over the
parts until the skin Ii red. spread on

thus aids in relieving the congestion

HOW TO AVOID THE DisEASE.
Evidence seems to prove that this IL
a germ disease, spread principally by
human contact, chiefly thru coughing.
sneexing and splitting. So avoid per-
sons having colds-which means avoid
crowds-common drinking cups. roller
towels, etc. Keep W your bodily
strength by plenty OF exercise in the
open afr. and good food. Above all.
keep free from colds. as colds irritate
the lining Of the air passages and rem
der them better breeding places for the
germs.
Use vick's vapoRub at the very first
sign Of q cold. For head cold, melt
little vapoRub in a spoon and inhale
the vapors. or better STILL use VapoRub
in a benzoin steam kettle. II this Is
not available. use an ordinary tea-ket-
tie. Fill hAlf-full OF boiling water. 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 q North Carolina druggist,
who found how 70 combine, in safve
form, method and camphor with such
volatile oils a. eucalyptus. thyme. Gu
bebs, ETC., 30 that when the salve is
applied to the body heat these ingre-
dents are liberated in the form OF va

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 the other
sections OF the country it is the stan
dard home remedy in over a. million
homes for all forms Of cold troubles
Over six million jars we're sold last
year. II 10 particularly recommended
for children's Group or colds. since II is
externally applied and therefore can be
used as freely as desired without the

NO OCCASION ron PANIC.

NO OCCASION FOR PANIC.
Spanish influenza. which appeared In
Spain in May, has all the appearance
of grip or In grippe. which has swept
over the world in numerous epidemics
as far back as history runs. Hippo
crates refers TO an epidemic in AZ b
c.. which is regarded by many to have
been influenza. Every century has had
its attacks. Beginning with 1891. this
country has had 1--WE epidcmics, the
last in 1ssS-so.
There Is no occasion for pantc-in-
f,uenxa itself has a very low percentage
Of fatalities-not over one death out
of every four AIndred cases. accord
ing to the N. c. board OF health. The
chief danger lies in complications aris-
ing. attacking principally. patients in a
run down condition-those who don't
60 to bed soon enough. or those who
get up too early.
THE SYMPTOMS.
Grippe. or influenza, az it is now
called, usually begins with chill fol-
lowed by aching. feverishness and
some times nausea and dizziness. and
a general feeling OF weakness and de-
precision. The temperature Il from 100
to l04, and the fever usually lasts from
three to Ave days. The germs attack
the mucous membrane, or lining of
the air passages-nose, throat and
bronchial tubes-there L. usually a
hard cough. especially bad at night Of
ten times sore throat or tonsifftts.
and frequently all the appearances Of
a severe head cold
TUE TREATMENT
Go to bed at the first symptoms. not
only for your own sake but to avoid
spreading the disease to others-take a
purgatife. eat plenty Of nourishing
food. remain perfectly quiet and don't
worry. Quinine. ASPIRIN OF Dovers
Powder, etc. may be administered by
the physicians directions to relieve the
aching But there is no cure or specific
for infuenIa-the disease must run its
course. but nature will throw on the
attack II only you keep up your
strength. The chief danger lies in the
complications which may arise. Infiu-
enza so weakens the bodily resistance
that there Is danger OF pneumonia or
bronchitis developing, and some times
Inflammation OF the middle ear, or
heart affections. For these reasons. it
is very important that the patient re-
main in bed until his strength returns
stay in bed at least two days or more
after the fever has left you. or II you
are over 50 or not strong. stay IN bed

Bunny and his dear kind uncle, Mr..
the Tailor Birds shop in the last story,
where Uncle Luck's pink vest was
having two buttons sewed on.
Well. as soon as the old gentleman
rabbit was back in the Luckmobile he
looked at his vest and would you be-
lieve il? That Tailor Bird had sewed
on two liberty bond buttons instead OF
the pearl ones which had come of.
Goodness gracious meebusl" ex-
claimed Uncle Lucky. What shall /
do?''
Buy two more liberty bonds" said
the little rabbit, so Uncle Lucky turned
the Luckmobile toward Rabbitviile, and
when he got there he jumped out and
went into his hank and bought two more
liberty bonds, Wasn't that nice Of the
old gentleman rabbit? Well, that's what
I'm going TO do so remind me that
Uncle Sam wants me to buy more
bonds. I'm going TO have my tailor sew
some liberty bond buttons on my coat
and then won't forget TO buy the best
bond in the whole world.

IOWA WOOD IN HUN GUNS?

Did it ever occur to you that the
German gun stocks may be made
from the very same tree as the guns in
the hands Of your own boys? Yet this
is true according to a government man
now engaged in cutting walnut trees
in the vicinity Of the old Thomas mill.
Twenty years ago the territory that is
now being cleared Of these trees was
cleared by the same man who gathered
the favorite wood and sent 1t to the
same factory that is now engaged in
making gun stocks for the United
States government. At that time. how
ever, the. factory was making gum
stocks for the Germans.

PAULINE FREDERICK
 IN DOUBLED CROSSED $

Monday, by special request, the Best Theatre offers the return date of the widely advertised Frederick pie ture to be presented by Paramount, and directed by Adolph Zuker through Robert Vignola. Hector Turnbull is responsible for the story and consid- ering that this picture has met with instantaneous success on Broadway, we believe you will also greatly ad- mire and appreciate the wonderful and impressive acting Miss Pauline Fred erick reveals in this picture.
 The surprise and wonder start with the first click of the camera and en- dure through the entire showing of the picture, while the spectator sets transfixed at the strength, beauty and true artistry with which the thing is treated.
 From the first to last of that sort that will make sure fire appeal to feminine audiences, it is particularly charming and strikingly well done.

Hot Water Drinking.

A stomach cleansing treatment Is often just as important as rest for the organ, says W;i: Eastman in Phy- sical Culture. The best ordinary meth cd of stomach cleansing is the drink ing of considerable amount of hot water. Not too hot. Just hot enough so that you can drink it with fair ra- pidity and take considerable amount into the stomach in q short time. If you will drink cup of hot water ev- cry five minutes until two quarts or more have been consumed. the result will be unfailins.

THE WORkIN GMAN'S PRAYER.

Copyright 1918, by Edgar R. Guest) No use boasting of their courage, no
 use sitting down content, Sort O. restfll like an trustin to the
 soldiers that we've sent, They're the finest youth that ever
 wore a country's uniform. An they ain't afraid O. numbers or of any German swarm. But it's up to us to hustle, for they'll
 never lick the Huns, An it's foolish thinking different if
 they haven't got the guns. We can brag about their mettle, for
 we know their fighting ways; But it's up to us to help 'em every
 minute~ nowadays. Every ship that's going over must be
 loaded down with freight, An I pray to God each cargo won't
 get to 'em just too late. They are lads that smile. at danger
 an they've got the grit that tells; But they'll never lick the kaiser if
 we don't provide the shells. There's no Prussian aviator that can
 beat a Yankee lad, We've got stuff in fancy fyin' that
 the Germans never had, But the Boche will keep on f1yin' am
 he never will be downed By the Yankee aviator that it kept
 upon the ground. We've got cloud men there in num-
 bers that can bust their circus
 rings,
 But we've got to se'>d them motors
 and we've got to send them
 wings.
 Lord, I wish you'd give me language
 that would rouse my fellowman. So that I could make him hustle in
 the way I know he can. I ain't been long on prayin'. but I'm
 comin' now to you, Wantin' words to set men doin' what
 I know they ought to do Lord, the Boys in France are waitin
 while we're turning out the stuff, Can't you sped us up a little so we'll
 make it fast enough?
