 Body Heat
NOTHING TO SWALLOW
 YOU JUST RUB IT ON
Particularly Valuable to Mothers with Small Children. Local Druggists Are Offering 2Jc Jars on 80 Days Trial.

 This preparation, known as Vick's VapoRub, is now being introduced here. Ths 1ccal druggists know the danger of constant dosing" especially to small children and are anxious that all their customers should try this new outside" treatment. Ar engagements have accordingly been made with the manufacturers to sell the small size jars, price 25c, on 30 days trial-no charge. to be made if the customer is not delighted with the results.
 For deep chest colds, sore throat, bronchitis, tonsiHtis, or ineipient pneu- monia VapoRub should De applied over the throat and chest and covered with 8 warm flannel cloth. The vapors arising carry the medication, with each breath, to the air passages and lungs. In addition VapoRub is ab' sorbed through and stimulates the . skin taking out that tightness and soreness in the chest. ~.
 For head colds, hay fever, eatarrl or asthmatic troubles vapoRub car either be applied up the nestrils or { little melted in a spoon and the vapor' inhaled. Group is usually relieved within fifteen minutes and one apph cation at bedtime prevents nigh attack.

Sergeant Arthur Gibbons Lectures at HiIIerest on Life in Trenches-War Films Shown.

Wednesday evening at the Hillerest Theatre. Sergeant Arthur Gibbons gave a. lecture on his experiences in the trenches as a member of the Canadian Army in connection with the showing of the war films sent but by the Con- necticut State Council of Defense, The
 theatre was crowded and Sergeant
 Gibbons was heartily applauded.
 The film was very interesting, show ing as it did the actual life of the
 boys in the service both at work and
 at play. A machine gun battalion was
 shown in a sham battle in which they awaited the attack in their boInbproef
 trenches and then launched a counter
 attack. The Thirteenth Regiment of Engineers was shown training with
 pesison gas and liquid fire. There
 were other scenes from the army and also from the Marine Corps who boast
 they are the first to fight.
 The naval scenes in the films includ-
 ed a destroyer speeding through the
 waves at a 35 mile clip and also show ed the destroyer fleet spreading a smoke screen which is used to conceal ship movements from land stations and also to misled the ubiquitous sub marine. ] Sergeants Gibbons gave a thrilling i-talk on his experiences in the trench es. He enlisted in the Canadian Army
 as among the first 30,0e0 to sail for the front. At the second battle of Ypres he was twice wounded and the company of which he was member | was annihilated. He was captured and was taken to the German prison camp at Giessen. His wounds were
 so bad that the German doctors pro nouneed him hopeless case" and he l was sent back to England to die. The sergeant is far from dead yet and is still doing his bit to the best of his ability.
 He painted a vivid picture of the 1 life in the trenches and told of S< fooldardy deeds that are done, nor from any spirit of bravery but mere ly to break the drear monotony of trench routine. Sergeant Gibbons was heartily applauded.

UNSETTLED CONDITNIONs SCARCITY OF LABOR
 AND EIGHT-HOUR LAW

DOUGLAS, Jan. 14.-The sawmill at this place owned by the Geo. E. James Lumber Company will not be operated the coming season unless existing conditions are very much changed. This is the substance of statement made this morning by the head of the company, Geo. k. James, who returned the latter part of last week from Suloia Bay where his company also owns and operates sawmill and box factory
 Mir. James ascribes three reasons why the sawmill will not be operated the first being the unsettled condi- tion of the lumber market; the sec ond the inability of the company to secure logs at anything like a fair price and the third is that the com pany cannot operate at a profit un- der the existing eight-hour law.
 Where logs have been obtained in previous years at from $4 to $5 per thousand, from $10 to $12:50 is now asked and, owing to the scarcity of labor, it is almost impossible to get them at the latter prices. The company expects to operate at Suloia Bay, where they already have two and half million feet of logs, but that amount is million short of what will be required for the season. Practically the entire output of the Suloia Bay industry is engaged by Ht.
 the various fish and canning com panies at prices almost double that paid in former years for box lumber.
 If all the lumber that could be turned out by the big mill here was demanded for use in fish boxes or if 1t was of such quality that it could be used in airplane construction, there would be no difficulty in oper- ating even under existing prices for logs, the increased cost of labor and the shorter hours; but the demand for box lumber is limited and but a small percentage of the lumber cut from native logs is suitable for airplanes and the result would be a large amount of lumber manufactur- ed at maximum cost for which there would be no market.
 MT. James says there is a possi- bility that logs may be more plenti. full and cheaper later in the season but that it is not very probable that such conditions will exist.
