SPANISH INFLUENZA WHAT IT is

Was Epidemic in 1SS9-'90 Only Then It Came
From Russia by Way of France and
This Time by Way of SPAIN

according 10 the severity OF the attack.
EXTERNAL APPLICATIONS.
In order TO stimulate the lining OF
the air passages to throw off the grippe
germs. TO aid In looseninE the phleg,n
and keeping the air passages open,
thus making the breathing easier.
Vick's Vapo Rub will be found effec-
tive. Hot. wet towels should be APP
piled over the throat. chest and back
between the shoulder blades to open
the pores Then Vapo Rub 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 tho body lib
crates the ingredients in the form Of
vapors. These rapors inhaled with
each breath. carry the medication d.
rcctly to the parts affected. AT the
same time Yapo Rub Is absorbed
through and stimulates the skin, at
tracing the blood TO the surface. and
thus aids in relieving the congestion
within.
HOW TO AVOID THE DISEASE.
Evidence seems to prove that this is
germ disease. spread principally by
human contact. chiefly through cough
ing. sneezing or splitting. So avoid
avoiding crowds-common drinking
cups. roller towels, etc. Keep up your
bodily strength by plenty Of exercise
In the open air. and good food. Above
all. keep free from colds. as colds irrI-
tate the lining of the air passa ges and
render them much better breeding
places for the germs
Use NiCk'S VaDo Rnb fbe
first sign OF a cold. For head cold.
melt little Vapo Rub in spoon and
inhale the vapors. or, better still, use
Fapo Rub in benzoin steam kettle.
II this Is not available, use an ordinary
teakettle. Fill half-full of boiling
water put In half n teaspoon Of Vapo
Rub from time to time-keep the ket-
tie just slowly boiling and inhale the
steam arising.
Note---Vick's Vapo Rub is the dis
covery Of North Carolina druggist,
who found how to combine, in salve
form. Menthol and Camphor with such
volatile oils as Eucalyptus, Thyme.
Cubebs. ETC.. so that when the snlve is
applied to the body heat, these ingre-
dents are liberated in the form of
vapors.
Vapo Rub IS comparatively new in
New York State and New England and
few Western States. where 1t Is just
now being introduced. but In other Sec
tions OF the country 1t is the standard
home remedy in more than a million
homes for all forms Of cold troubles
Over six million jars were sold last
year. 1t Is particularly recommended
for children's Group or colds, since il is
externally applied and therefore can
be used as freely as desired without
the slightest harmful effects. yapo
Rub can be had in three sizes at all
druggists.
