Men Of England

[By LATE Young. Jr., Of the American
Editorial Committee touring Europe.l
London, England. Oct. III attended
a recent luncheon Of the EDglish-

the meeting was to promote friendship

Mr.. Balfour digressed from his sub
ject and paid his tribute to the Hun.
He said: "Brutes they were when they
began the war, and, as far as can
judge, brutes they remain at the pres
ent moment"
He said: II speak perhaps with a
warmth Of indignation unbeftting a
foreign secretary, but with the news
of this outrage in the Irish channel

epithets."
In some respects Mr.. Balfour is the
most distinguished of British states
men. At the present time he holds the
important position Of foreign secretary.
He has the confidence and respect of
the entire English race. He is very

He Is what the English people I
rather imagine like to consider as one
Of the flowers Of their culture. When
he speaks he speaks very easily and
he seems to be very deep in his thought
and contemplatfve: he does not speak
directly to his audience: he is always
exact and reminds one more Of Presi-
dent Wilson than anyone in America.
In fact when he was in America he
had two or three visits with President
Wilson and they found each other most
congenial. Mr.. Balfour has written
some works upon philosophy and is
what we would call in America a
scholar in politics.

parts affected, At the same time
VapoRub is absorbed thru and stimu-
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-in-
fiuenza or grip has very low percent
age of fatalities-not over one death
out of every four hundred cases, ac-
cording to the ~. c. Board of Health.
The chief danger lies IN complications
arising, attacking principally patients
in a run down condition-those who
don't go to bed soon enough, or 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 thru cough
ing, sneezing or splitting. So avoid
persons having colds-which means
avoiding crowds - common drinking
cups. roller towels, etc. Keep up your
bodily strer~th by plenty Of exercise
in the omen air. and good food.
KEEP FREE FROM COLDS.
Above all. avoid colds, as colds iris,
tate the lining OF the air passages and
render them much better breeding
places for the germs.
Use yick's VapoRub at the very first
sign of cold. For a head coin, melt
little VapoRub in spoon and inhale
the vapors, or better still. use VapoRub
in benzoin steam kettle. II this is
not available, use an ordinary tea
kettle. Fill half full OF boiling water.

OBJECTS OF SOVIET WRATH.
Russian Editors Made to Suffer as No
Other Class Suffers

Correspondence Associated Press.1
London, Sept. 27.-Newspaper men
have suffered more than any other class
of Russians from the bolshevik regime.
They are the only ones absolutely I'M
able to find employment and woh are
condemned by the bolsheviki to literal
starvation.
From the very first day the boil
sheviki assumed control Of the country
fines. Imprisonment and suppression
OF papers were more frequent than even
in the worst periods Of the emperor's
rule The fines imposed by the Boil
shevik commissars were incomparably
heavier than in the old days. when
5000 rubles was the maximum amount.
They fined papers 10000 rubles for pub
fishing war news without permission,
and one Moscow paper was fined 10000
rubles for the same, offense. For
spreading provocative rumors," in
Moscow alone, in one day. four news
papers were suppressed, FIVE were
heavily fined and ten were indicted for
reports tending to discredit the gov
ernment."
The publishers could not stand the
heavy drain of constant fines, the edit
ors dreaded the prospect Of a more or
less protracted ,stay in prison, and the
reporters were afraid to write about
anything rejecting upon bolshevik
methods, as that might be construed an
attempt to discredit the government.
A newspaper acquaintance OF the
writer member OF the staff Of a most
progressive daily after having beer,
twice imprisoned and his paper made
to pay fine Of 10000 rubles for an in
offensive article, confessed that he was
at a loss what to do. how to write.
Whenever public dissatisfaction be-
came too pronounced the government
suppressed all non -bolshevik. "bour-
geois" publications. This example OF
bolshevik craftsmanship was emuiatei
by the Petrograd and other sovicts 80
that the Russian press entirely ceased
to exist.

ORIGIN OF The DISEASE.

Spanish Influenza, which appeared in
Spain in May has swept over the
world in numerous epidemics as far
back as history runs. Hippocrates re-
fers to an epidemic in 412 B. c.. which
is regarded by many to have been in
flnenza. Every century has had its at
tacks. Beginning with 1881, this coun-
try has had five epidemics, the last in
1ss9-90.
THE SYMPTOMS.
Grip, or influenza as it is now called,
usually begins with chill followed by
aching. feverishness and sometimes
nausea and dizziness, and "a general
feeling of weakness and depression.
The temperature is from 100 to 104.
and the fever usually lasts from three
to five days. The germs attack the
mucous membrane. or lining of the
air passages-nose, throat and bron-
chial tubes-there Is usually a hard
cough. especially bad at night. often
times a sore throat or tonsilitis, and
frequently all the appearances Of a
severe head cold.
THE TREATMENT.
Go to bed at the first symptoms
take a purgative, eat plenty of nour-
fishing food, remain perfectly quiet and
don't worry. Nature herself is the only
cure for influenza and will throw of
the attack il only you cqpserve your
strength. A little Quinine, Aspirin or
Dover's Powder may be given by the
physicians directions to allay the ach-
ing.t Always call doctor. since the
chief danger Of grip is in its weaken
ing effect on the system, which allows
complications to develop. These are
chiefly pneumonia and bronchitis,
sometimes Inflammation Of the middle
ear. or heart affections. For these
reasons, it Is very important that the
patient remain in bed Suntil his
strength returns-stay in bed at least
two days or more after the fever has
left you. or IL 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 of the grip
germs. to aid in loosening the phlegm
and keeping the air passages open,
thus making the breathing 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 yapcRub should he 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
