Strangers Wed in Cemetery
to Ward Off Grip Epidemic

Philadelphia, Oct. 21.-With the
hope of protecting the Orthodox
Russian Jews of Philadelphia from
further ravages of the influenza epi-
demic, Harry Rosenberg, III South
Fourth street, was married to Mrs.
Fanny Jacobs at the first line of
graves in the Jewish cemetery, Gem
etery line near Cobb's Creek, at
o'clock yesterday afternoon.
With the grim white and gray
tombstones and monuments as back
ground, more than 1900 Russian
Jews, in silence and awe, watched
Rabbi Lipschutz perform the we'd
ding ceremony.
And when, amid their stark sur
roundings the couple were pronounc-
ed man and wife, the orthodox
among the spectators filed 'solemnly
past the couple and made them pres
ents of money in sums ranging from
ten cents to a hundred dollars, ac-
Icording to the means and circum-
stances of the donor, until more
than $1,000 had been given.
The last monetary Offering made
the bride and bridegroom walked to
the greensward further from the
graves, where a wedding feast was
quickly spread from the two truck
loads of food which others of the
faithful had provided.
This marriage in a cemetery, with
| the idea of warding off the ravages
of an epidemic, is revival of a Gus
tom which has prevailed for hun
dreds of years among the jews in the
heart of Russia. The participants in
the ceremony say that when Russia
was swept by cholera several cen
turies ago Jews died by the hun
dreds. Panic seized them and coun-
ell of elders and rabies was called.
They decided that the attention OF
/ God would be called to the affiiction
of their fellows if the most humble

lates the skin, -attracting 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 grip has
very low percentage of fa-
talities-not over one death
out of every four hundred
cases, according to the n. C.
Board of Health. The chief
danger lies in complications
arising, attacking principally
patients in a rundown condi-
tion-those who don't go to
bed soon enough, OF those who
get up too early.
HOW TO AVOID THE
DISEASE
Evidence seems to prove
that this is a germ disease,
spread principally by human
contact chiefly through cough
ing, sneezing or splitting. So
avoid persons having colds,
which means avoiding crowds
common drinking cups, roll
er towels, etc. Keep up your
bodily strength by plenty of
exercise in the open air, and
good food.
KEEP FREE FROM COLDS
Above all, avoid colds, as
colds irritate the lining of the
air passages and render them
much better breeding places
for the germs.
Use Vick's VapoRub at the
very first sign of cold. For
a head cold, melt a. little
VapoRub in a spoon and in
hale the vapors, or, better Still,
use VapoRub in a benZoin
steam kettle. If this is not
available, use an ordinary tea
kettle. Fill halfful 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-Vicks VapoRub is
the discovery of a North Caro-
lima druggist, who found how
to combine, in salve form,
Menthol and Camphor with
such volatile oils as Eucalyp-
tus. Thyme, Cubebs. etc., SO
that when the salve is applied
to the body heat, these in
gradients are liberated in the
form of vapors. VapoRub can
be had in three sizes at all
druggists. While compare
lively 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. VapoRub
is particularly recommended
for children's Group or colds.
as it is externally applied and
can, therefore, be used freely
and often without the slightest
harmful effects.

THE SYMPTOMS

THE SYMPTOMS
Grip, or Influenza, as it is
now called, usually begins
with a chill, followed by ach-
ing, feverishness and some
times nausea and dizziness,
and a general feeling of weak
ness and depression. The tenn
perature is from 100 to 1O4,
and the fever usually lasts
from three to five days. The
germs attack the mucous
membrane, or lining of the air
passages = nose, thro oat and
bronchial tubes-there is us
ually a hard cough, especially
bad at night; oftentimes
sore throat or tonsilitis, ana
frequently all the appearances
of a severe head cold.
THE TREATMENT
Go to bed at the first symp-
toms-take a purgative, eat
plenty of nourishing food, re-
main perfectly quiet and don't
worry. Nature herself is the
only cure for influenza and
will throw off the attack IL
only you conserve your
strength. A little quinine, as
pirin or Dover's Powders may
be given by the physicians di-
rections 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 complica-
tions to develop. These are
chiefly pneumonia and bron-
chitis, sometimes inflamma-
ton of the middle ear, or heart
affections. For these reasons,
it is very important that the
patient remain in bed until his
strength returns-stay in bed
at least two days or more aft
er 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
lining of the air passages TO
throw off the grip germs, to
aid in loosening the phlegm
and keeping the air passages
open, thus making the breath
ing 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
is red, spread on thickly and
covered with two thicknesses
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, VapoRub is alb
