Our allies are holding fast - in

the germs by direct poison when
used as a spraying solution.
When used as spraying solution
it covers the mucous membrane lin-
ing of the nose and throat with an
oily coating saturated with this
powerful antiseptic and it is indi-
Gated that when the germs are in
hailed they come in contact with the
solution and are thus destroyed.
1t is believed that spraying the
nose and throat night and morning,
in addition to inhaling the fumes
of the solution at frequent intervals
during the day, will give complete
immunity.
1t is also indicated that bad colds,
tonsilitis, sore throat and the
ordinary forms of grippe and other
diseases contracted by way of the
nose and throat, can be prevented
by using Wilson's Solution in the
above manner.
On account of its powerful anti
septic and disinfecting properties it
can be used for practically all pur-
poses where antiseptics are re-
quired, and is most valuable
household remedy.
Although it was placed on the
market only a few weeks ago, the
success the preparation has achieved
is truly phenomenal. 1t is now being
manufactured at the rate of forty
three thousand bottles daily, but
even this amount has not been suf-
ficient so far to supply the rapidly
increasing demand.
Wilson's Solution is also known
as Anti-Flu, and is sold by all drug
gists. A thirty-five-cent bottle is
sufficient for a weeks treatment.
Caution: Read directions on the la
bel carefully, as the Solution is
highly concentrated and must be

ment is called Wilson's Solution or
Anti-Flu, and is the discovery of
Prof. Robert C. Wilson, head of the
Department of Pharmacy Of one Of
the largest universities in the coun-
try.
Leading physicians, specialists
and psychologists give the prep
aration unqualified endorsement
after submitting it to the most
exhaustive tests. The solution is
composed of some Of the most pow
erful antiseptics and germicides
known to science and experimental
tests show that one Of the ingredi-
ents is ten times as powerful as car
bolic acid, although the preparation
is he rmless when used according to
directions. To many this would ap-
pear impossible, but it is we'll
known fact that Dakin's Solution,
which has been used so extensively
in the war hospitals, is fifty times
as powerful as mercury. The above
statement, therefore, seems mild by
comparison.
It is Prof. Wilson'S theory that
the germs in the nose and throat
and bronchial tubes can be de-
stroyed by the powerful vapors
from his solution by merely inhal-
ing the fumes from a few drops on
the handkerchief. The fact that
tens Of thousands have apparently
received immunity from the disease
after using Wilson's Solution seems
to support this theory.
| Scientific investigation has shown
beyond peradventure of a doubt
that germs and bacteria can be de-
stroyed by generalization as well
as by direct poison. 1t is indicated
that Wilson's Solution does both

the germs are killed by over-oxidi.

HOOVER TO CONTROL
AND FIX ICE Price
Will Supervise Industry and
Oversee Distribution as
a Food Measure
SURVEY NOW
Is UNDER WAY

WASHINGTON. June 3.-Control over
ice distribution this summer with an
equalized supply to all communities so
far as possible, with a view OF pre-
venting a shortage, has been under
taken by the Federal Food Admlnistra-
tion, II was learned yesterday
The withdrawal OF many men from
the ice trade for service in the army or
war munition plants and the danger Of
the loss Of quantities OF meats and veg
etables through insufficient icing is the
principal reason for the Food Admins
traitors action.
A survey OF the ice factories Of the
country with statistics OF their maxi
mum capacity Of output Is in progress
and will be available as soon as reports
have been received by Food Admins
traitor Hoover from the various State
food administrators who are conduct
ing the work. Ice storages are included
I'm the survey.
Not only will railroad equipment be
conserved through the plan. IT is said
but long hauls for ice in many sections
and cross haus in others will be stop
ped unless they are made at the direc-
tion OF the State food administrators
and for the purpose of relieving an
emergency at some point
Regulation OF ice prices is In pros
pect as a result Of the acting being
taken by Administrator Hoover. While
no statements were made IN this direc-
tion, the data which is being collected
by the State food administrators will
show the approximate cost Of produc-
ton In each ice factory or city and
these figures will be made the basis for
fixing maximum prices which will pre-
vent Increases in the cost 10 consum-
ers during sudden emergencies or
shortened supplies.
Mr.. Hoover has directed that In in
stances where ice is shipped from one
State to another arrangements be made
for exchanges Of information between
food administrators OF neighboring
States and TO report 10 Washington in
stances OF marked shortage or surplus
In their territory.
Complaints have been received by the
Food Administration OF abnormal prices
for Ice and suffering from shortage In
towns and communities where plants
have been destroyed by fire or machin-
cry has broken down. In a few in
stances ice factories have been able TO
run at part capacity only because Of
labor shortage or inability TO obtain
pfuel and other supplies promptly.
The movement OF ice by rail, to-
gether with supplied needed by Ice
plants. Is being discussed by assistants
Of Mr.. Hoover with representatives OF
the Railroad Administration with a
view OF improving the general plan Of
Ice distribution for the summer and
furnishing TO isolated communities al
regular intervals such amounts as they
need.
To what extent local prices will be
reduced or increased under the plan
being devised by Mr. Hoover viii not
be known until he has received his re-
ports from the various State admla-
istrators.
