PLACES Suggested For Peace Meeting

Paris-Diplomats here are interest

peace negotiations Some of them
think the Carnegie peace palace at
The Hague should be chosen for SEN

The Hague is convenient for the Brit

Other statesmen prefer place in
French or Italian Switzerland, such
as Lausanne, Geneva or Lucerne. They
are easy of access from France, Italy,

the use of Vick's VapoRub as an ex~
ternal application to supplement the
physicians treatment.
NEW WAYS TO USE VAPORU5.
Tn addition to the usual method or
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 a preventive. They
melt a little in a spoon and inhale the
vapors arising, or melt it in benzo1n
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 fromstme
to time-keep the kettle just slowly
boiling and inhale the steam arising.
According to a Bulletin just issued
by the Public Health Service, DIR.
Stiles recommends that the nose and
throat be kept coated with some oily
substance For this purpose VapoRub
is excellent-just put little up the
nostriIs from time to time and snun
well back into the air passages.
