4 Talk To Mothers About
 Group and Cold Troubles
The New Treatment With Fresh Air and Antiseptic Vapors, that Makes Internal Dosing Flannel Jackets etc., Unnecessary.

VapoRub, for all the many forms of cold troubles, from head colds, asthma or catarrh, down to sore throat, bron- chitis or deep chest colds.
 Just apply VapoRub we'll over the throat and chest, covering with a warm flannel cloth. Leave the cover ing loose around the neck so the va DOTS, released by the body heat, may be freely inhaled. The next morning the head is clear, phlegm losened and soreness gone. One rubbing with VapoRub usually relieves croup in Is minutes and an application at bedtime prevents night attack.
 Colds are easiest to stop at the be- ginning. Nip them in the bud' by keeping plenty of fresh air in the bed room and applying VapoRub freely at the first sign of trouble. Your drug gist will sell you 25c jar with the privilege of months trial.

their naval training tonight. These two
Rockingham fellows volunteered and were
sent last January 7th to Newport, Rhode
Island, and kept there in training for four
months. The last of April they were
sent to the electrical school at Brooklyn,
and ON May 3Gth transferred TO the new
school six miles from Norfolk, at the
jamestown site. This electrical school
fits the men for any kind of electrical work
and turns out out about 20 graduates each
week. There are IL companies there, 100
to the company. Uncle Sam is training
these men for service on submarines,
electrically driven batileships, destroyers,
etc. The course requires about ten
months study. And so thorough is the
electrical training that the instruction
there given will be most valuable to those
so fortunate as to be trained by our gov
ernment. Both Ben and Corbett like the
life and are not only glad to be in training
for service for our Country, but at the
same time are receiving areal profession.
Their address is electrical School, Navy
